3.5/5 

I’ve been flip flopping about rounding up or down, but after some reflecting and remembering that at least 300 pages of this book felt like I was just hate reading it to be mad, I ultimately decided to round down.

Grace.  For the love of god, WHY.  Her inner monologue makes me want to pull my hair out.  AND MAKE UP YOUR DAMN MIND ALREADY LIKE STOP LOOKING AT HUDSON LIKE HE’S A PIECE OF MEAT WHILE ACTIVELY SAYING “I don’t actually want to be with him!!  It’s just the mating bond, silly mating bond!!  I love Jaxon!!  ….. I just want to fvck his brother….”

I never liked Jaxon and Grace’s relationship (it’s giving Edward and Bella from Twilight aka bland and boring) so while I like Jaxon as a character and I feel like they did him dirty here, I was also mad that Grace spent so much of this book actively whining about him while also pretending she didn’t have a stronger connection with Hudson from the beginning.  As soon as he was introduced in the second book, I was like “oh THERE’S the chemistry the ‘main couple’ has been missing this entire time.”

This series is unhinged and I feel unhinged while reading it.  I feel like I’ve lost the plot, but I can’t stop.  It’s like a train wreck I can’t look away from.
