WOW!! This book was absolutely toxic from the first chapter to the last. As my first Colleen Hoover book, it has left a very bad taste in my mouth. If this is how she writes her male characters as toxic, misogynistic assholes, and the female characters letting them walk all over them and being forgiving for their horrible and blatant mental and in this book physical abusive behavior; this needs to be the first and last of her books that I ever read.

Honestly, after everything that happened to piss me off about Ben and his totally inappropriate behavior and mental degradement of Fallon, the plot twist wasn't that surprising. But Hoover's completion of Fallon's complete boundaryless personality by her forgiveness of Ben just put a nail in the coffin of this so-called "romance" novel.
