AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. this is the only accurate reaction I can give to this book.

at the start of the book James gave off spoiled rich girl vibes but it was over as soon as it started, I was scared I wouldn't like her and find her annoying which would've hurt, cause I'd been waiting months for this book but it was over as soon as it started. I loved her, how she survived and got more confident and badass as time went and when she finally broke up with Zachary, I screamed "thank god" cause I wanted to murder that piece of absolute shit, but thankfully we were done with him. I admire her so much, she grew and healed from her past and trauma. The way that this book doesn't have a third-act breakup has my heart, James didn't let it happen and she's a badass for it.

Ozzy is the love of my life and you can't convince me otherwise. Everything about this man is imperfectly perfect, I love how he grows and learns with James, it's the sweetest thing ever, I love that he finally lets someone in and it happens to be the love of his life. His insecurities killed me, like I'm pretty sure I was physically hurting from it. THIS MAN HAS MADE MY STANDARDS SKYROCKET. LIKE COME ON, HE COOKS FOR HER, HE HAND FEEDS HER OYSTERS, SHARES HIS SNICKERS BARS, AND FREAKING CRAWLS TO HER WHILE SUBMITTING TO HER 😭😭😭😭😭 LIKE WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT.

Thank you to Naomi and Good Girls PR for the arc.
