this was too sweet! the bond addie and beckett had was just so pure, i loved it so much! they were able to lean on each other and inspire the other to keep growing and ugh, i think i got a toothache tbh<3

i do feel like the plot was very similarish to the first two, i could see all of the twists and progression coming from a mile away, tbh. it was still entertaining, but it didn’t feel like anything new. i also am a little irked with the intimacy in this book (and the last one). i hate how the first kiss automatically leads to them having sex after it. it takes away from the magic that is a first kiss, in my opinion lol. i wish we could see a little more progression in their physical relationship, especially since addie has never dated or anything like that all. that would’ve been a really interesting layer to the story, i think.

besides that, though, this was a really sweet romance and i really enjoy these characters. i’m really interested in learning more about laiken, and i especially cannot wait for shiloh’s book at the end! <3
