The Step Bet by Riley Hart, Devon McCormack
4.0

I’ve read a couple books by Riley but nothing by Devon (unless they’re actually the same person with two pen names). I have mixed feelings about this book but overall enjoyed it. I’m giving it a 3.5, rounded up because I read it pretty quickly. 

I liked Troy and Atlas. I liked their relationship. I’ve been getting into the obsessed relationship trope lately, even though I would run from that red flag IRL. 

Their friends were fun but the other characters (parents-dead and alive, siblings) all felt very one dimensional. Mom good. Dad bad. Troy’s mom should have had some dimension but in the end even she didn’t. 

I’m intrigued enough to read the next book though!
