I keep going back and forth on this. Greyson and Jovana were for sure sweet, but in the beginning I was really frustrated with Jovana. She for sure went all in with Greyson and I really couldn't figure out why. Like, any man that treats you that way, regardless of the glimpses you get is really showing their true selves to you. I just kept thinking, "Girl, he's just not that into you." However, since this was a dual POV I knew that wasn't the case. IRL this is a situation where for sure it's better to cut and run for your mental and emotional well-being, but that's not how romance novels work.
Once I was able to suspend reality and get firmly into the romance novel world I really enjoyed this story. Jovana really is perfect for Greyson, and the growth that Greyson made was worth it in the end. They're freaking hot together and the book was steamy!
Thank you NetGalley and Montlake for the ARC. This is my honest opinion.
