I was sooo apprehensive of this book at first because I didn’t like the last few Ali Hazelwood books I read and I was so scared that I just didn’t like her books anymore (which seemed a bit like blasphemy to me because I do really love her writing,)
Luckily that’s not the case!!!
Let me just say during the first 200 pages I was still veryyyyy scared because there were a few things that could’ve made be despise this book just as much as I despise Deep End but I’m so so happy they turned out to be fine and not matter at alllll!!!
Conor was YEARNING for Maya and I loved that 😩 he seemed like such an ass in the beginning but my god that man is so down bad for Maya and Maya is so down bad for him
I flew through this like I do with every Ali book and ate this tf upppp
Once it was clear that the things I thought would bother me, didn’t bother me at all this was just as amazing as the other old Ali books!!!

I didn’t really expect any different but this once again felt like every other rina Kent book and while I love most of them it made this book so fucking boring to me
I knew every single thing that was gonna happen and I got so tired of reading it at some point
I’m still gonna read Jude and Preston’s book though I feel like Preston’s and Marcus’ book could be really good and I’m excited to see that

I wouldn’t say I dislike this book but I also didn’t really like it so meh

This was actually soooo cute and wholesome!!! Honestly by the cover and title I would’ve expected this to be much spicier than it was (this is not a complaint)

I‘m very glad I finally finished this series but imo book 5 & 6 were not it
I think the story should’ve been concluded in the 5th and all these new over the top storylines should’ve been avoided that way

(the dragon?? The wings??)

I really loved the first four books in this series so I’m glad I finally got to see these characters… well at least most of them (wtf is that about raven Kennedy??) have their happily ever after…. At the same time I feel like Auren and Slade are actually the only ones who got theirs and the rest just have to deal with it?? Idk I’m not very happy with the last two books but maybe that’s just me
Still think it was worth the read so I could finish this series

I‘m actually so fucking mad about Judd?? Raven did my man dirty. Also giving Malina such an amazing redemption arc and then just killing her???

Oh. My. God.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is how you write a second chance romance 😩😩😩

This book was fucking perfect😭 literally the most beautiful story ever. I loved every single second of this

The yearning???? The angst? Rio is so down bad for Hallie and I’m obsessed

This is everything I wanted it to be and more

I need to reread this whole series asap. I feel like I’ll really really love it after this book (I already love it but I wasn’t OBSESSED obsessed but I feel like that might change now)

The last few pages of the epilogue just about killed me I couldn’t stop crying

This was literally the best second chance romance I have ever read.

Every single thing about this book is perfect

Also for anyone who (like me) was slightly scared because people put infidelity in the content warnings (I’m talking about myself here because when I saw that I was SCARED of reading this) it’s NOT between the main characters!!!
