This is definitely going on the list of one of my favorite trilogies with a third book that wrapped up a great deal of plot and answered so many questions. I love a character who seems outwardly uncaring but cares deeply actually deep down and I found that in Jack. His and Alan's bickering and fights were eye-opening and an insight into their characters without being gravely hurtful or abusive, clearly a rivals to lovers done correctly.

The climactic conflict was so fun to read, a good mix of "YAY"s and "OH NO"s and I couldn't put it down when I got to the last 80%. The ending brought all trilogies together perfectly.

Except now I want a spinoff novella of some sort of Adelaide because she deserves the very best.
