I absolutely adored being back in Magnolia Falls, this time with Ruby and River. These two’s chemistry was off the charts and their flirty banter had me gripped from the first chapter. The enemies to lovers trope was done so well, there was lots of push and pull and so much tension between the two of them! And don’t even get me started on Rivers dirty mouth, man oh man I was obsessed!

These two were both so guarded and had a ton of wall’s individually built around them, I loved watching them slowly fall to the ground as they opened up to each other and unknowingly fell in love. 

My heart is owned by River’s friendship group, this band of brothers, found family aspect of this series so far has me giddy whenever I read about them. There’s so much love in these books and not just romantic love but platonic love and it’s so wonderful to read about!
