I may have not read a lot of RHs yet, but this one is definitely special.
Olivia is a boss. Literally and figuratively. I don’t know if I want to be her or be with her. I mean, she’s the CEO of a company, leader of her group, speaks a lot of languages, and has really great taste in music. And the men. Max, Roark, Viraj and Zach. Their dynamic was really good and the fact that they don’t like each other made everything so much funnier. I’m adding Zach in my top 5 book boyfriends list. He may be a psychopath, but the good kind. No one can do a declaration of love like him.
The two timelines made the story so much more entertaining, since the characters know each other from their teenage years. Their group feels complete only when they’re all together, because they all bring something different. The characters are 30 years old in the present timeline, which I really liked.
While there were slower moments, there was not a single moment that got me bored. The heist plot was so good. The ending was a bit rushed for me, but that epilogue was really cute. I usually prefer standalones, but I wish this was a series.
