”My turn,” she whispers against my lips, before leaning in for another kiss. “Choose Dare, Lex.”

I was so so excited to finally get Lex’s story 🥹 this sweet little nerdy love of a man has been my favorite Windsor sibling since the Wrong Bride and his book did not disappoint.

I loved learning more about his past and the trauma that shaped him into his closed off self and loved seeing him struggle through healing and becoming better for Raya.

Raya is such a bad ass woman in STEM and I loved her character! She was so kind and understanding and truly did everything she could to make things with Lex work, within reason 😌 she’s so intelligent and I loved the truth or dare and banter between the two of them.

I also really loved that in this book Lex was kindof his own big bad vs having someone come from the shadows like we have in previous books in the series! I thought that added extra suspense and tension and I really loved how everything was wrapped up in the end!
