I have been waiting for this since binding 13! I have been patiently waiting & I was not disappointed!! After reading Joey & Aoife’s books (and hating them!), I have to admit that I was slightly worried about how the rest of the series would go, but I really loved this book.

I still hate Lizzie, though I do feel sympathy for her, I just really can’t get past her treatment of Gibsie,
especially when it’s revealed to everyone that he was raped by Mark Allen & not Caoimhe
I do know that Lizzie is bipolar, but I feel like within the series so far, a lot of the characters (and readers) are turning a blind eye to her relentless bullying because she is bipolar. News Flash -
Just because you have a mental health disorder, doesn’t justify you treating others like shit!!!
Shannon is completely right when she says “hurt people hurt people” but it’s been said so often that I feel like Lizzie’s behaviour is just being excused when it shouldn’t be. The girl needs therapy for god sake! With that being said, I still plan on reading R10 & hopefully I’ll get understand Lizzie more & maybe start liking her but I can’t justify her actions, I just can’t & won’t.

I feel like there was too much about Lizzie, this is Gibsie & Claire’s book, I really love them as a couple and I can’t wait for their next book, I just hope we focus more on them & less on Lizzie - she gets her own book so why was she focused on so much in T7? I get their lives are interconnected, but in this book, she’s supposed to be a side character but clearly Lizzie didn’t get the message!!!

Couple ranking -
1. Johnny & Shannon
2. Claire & Gerard
