Emily McIntire strikes again! Forbidden love, strong FMC, and “I’ll burn the world for you” vibes really made this one for me. I enjoyed "Hooked" when I read it last year, but I think I ended up liking this one more! I will say, I think I need to start reading the physical books. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of this as an audiobook. I listened up to about 30% as the audiobook but wasn't getting into the storyline as much. Nothing against the VAs, I just sometimes don't connect the voices well to the characters and it kept taking me out of the story. But when I switched over to my physical copy, I enjoyed it way more!

Also, side note: Emily is such a nice human! I actually recently picked up my copy of "Scarred" because she lives close to me and did a little signed art card drop at a local Target and I was able to snag one! The art that she had done of Scar & Sara B. by the fountain is ✨stunning✨ and I loved having that visual while reading!
