3.5

I definitely enjoyed this installment less than the first, mostly because it’s not really “enemies to lovers,” but more of a “they’re both in denial (but not really)” vibe. I liked Alec a lot, but Tara’s insecurities were so prevalent that after a while they became annoying; in particular, it really bothered me that she didn’t trust Alec around Jessie. He literally TOLD her he got cheated on in his previous relationship and she still couldn’t believe him when he told her, several times, that they were just friends… I found that frustrating and kind of a red flag. 

So yeah, I don’t think I’ll be continuing with the series either. Especially after Lance’s characterization in this book, jesus. He was a real asshole—like, more than Dawson lol. So no, I don’t need that toxic bullshit in my life. 

3.5 out of 5 stars
