This book was so frustrating!
There's several small plot holes (one example is when Devon notes that Maddox and Xavi are sitting outside their trailer when he and Nate drive past. He spends time with Nate continously until Nate drives him to the cabin. Once there Nate says he drove Xavi up there earlier and Devin accepts that? How does that make sense? And there's a couple of times something like that happens but I cba to list them all).
The MCs are also supposed to be 25, be dirt poor, and deal with parents that have addictions, mental health problems and/or are abusive and yet they lack a lot of maturity. It would make more sense if at the start of the book they are 17/18 perhaps and mature over the course of a year or two into the relationship they end up having.
It's also never explained why they started to hate eacher other. There's a throwaway line that they used to be friends until I think age 10 and that Devon's father encouraged the rivalry but that's not really an explanation? At least, not for the level of animosity they display.
If these issues were rectified it could easily be a 4 or 5* book. There's a lot of fun in their fighting, and I enjoyed Xavi and Nate's relationship as well.
