Allie and Dean are definitely the spiciest of the couples and were very entertaining to read about!
Dean has main character energy, for sure. I like how the author always seems to peel back the layers on her MMCs to reveal that there is more to them than meets the eye. They are not what their first impression might lead you to believe and I admire how she showed Dean’s true colors. The male characters always seem to have bit more growth and evolution, but as a female reader…I love that.
I found Allie’s attitude towards casual sex relatable and respected her taking a breather to know herself as an individual before becoming part of a couple again.
Big bombshell dropped at the end of the book makes me eager to dive into #4 and see how the previous books’ characters come into play now that they’ve all graduated.
