I loved Audrey and Jace's relationship way more than Em and Jaxon's in the first book. I liked that this book cleared up the miscommunications in book 1. I didn't like how Jace did the same thing as Jaxon in book 1 by pushing Audrey away when he claims to love her so much. I can't believe that Audrey was there a whole week in book 1 and never got Jace alone to talk to him. It's amazing to me that they never asked her about anything at the time and didn't let her talk, but its so relatable to real life and people accepting things as fact before getting all the information.
