5.0

My ratings for the rest of the series: Throttled - 5☆, Collided - 4☆, Redeemed - 5☆

I didn't think any of the other books in the series would top Throttled for me but I think this did. I liked both main characters a bit more which surprise me. Elena just feels a little bit more dynamic and flushed out than Maya and we got to see much more character development in Jax than Noah. I still love Maya and Noah though of course. 

I will say it felt a bit predictable to me but since this isn't a mystery or thriller where it's important for plot twists and developments to stay mysterious, I didn't really mind. 

I appreciated the character development of Jax mostly of course but also the character development of Elena. I think it can be hard to show already mature and responsible characters mature further but Elena did.

Overall, I just really enjoyed their dynamic and story. I appreciate how their "ending" deviated from Noah & Maya and Liam & Sophie. They keep their unique dynamic which I appreciate.
