Daisy and Ryke’s relationship starts off as fast friends, despite the age difference.  Ryke feels a sense of duty to protect Daisy and is drawn to her over and over.

Their friendship may have been borderline inappropriate, but Ryke tried hard not to fall for her and he didn’t touch her until she was eighteen.  I don’t think he would have crossed the line prior to that.

I liked seeing more of Daisy being carefree, as she is the most sheltered Calloway sister.  The relationship between them is wild, reckless, all in.

I especially adored seeing the other relationships from Ryke and Daisy’s POVs.  They make them seem even sweeter than in their own books.  This book made me fall even more in love with Lily and Lo.
