Ugh, I didn’t have very high hopes of me liking this book even though it‘s by the great Elle Kennedy and unfortunately I was right about that.  Maybe it was the multiple POVs which made it hard at first to follow the story (I mean why was Lawson‘s POV and storyline even in there? Only because sex sells, I guess.) Maybe it was the characters and their more or less worked out personalities (I mean sorry but no one had a really unique personality trait other than all of them having major daddy issues.) I feel like the only person I really liked and cared about was Casey. Conveniently, the book ends with a cliffhanger on her story and her accident. Maybe Elle Kennedy already knew this wasn’t her best work and she just had to end it that way hence people would buy the second book of the series. Another thing that really disturbed and kinda put me off where the „fights“. Wtf, uncivilised and not sexy, sorry not sorry.

I‘m really disappointed tbh. I guess her college-set stories are either more my cup of tea or just simply better written.
