quick read and kept me hooked. only liked Alex and Kai towards the end. Damon can go to hell idc. didn't appreciate the sexism and sexual assault at all. if the men in this book were a little less fucked up it would be perfect.

I didn’t like how

Spoiler

micheal never apologizes to her like it was a really traumatizing event and he straight up was like huh that sucks wanna make out? end

the whole tense plot of why are they in jail and why is it Rikas fault really had me on edge wondering what’s gonna happen next. Recommend if you like romantic thrillers!

*sighs* You don't know how much I felt stupid reading this book. I just wanna slam both the main characters face in the wall and scold them on how stupid they are. Don't freaking start with the side characters esp that psycho friend, I wanna k-word him myself (no joke). This book makes me angry to the core, I wanna toss it in the garbage dump. (i liked the spice scenes tho)

P.s. i thought at first that this book is a vampire story bcs of its dark aura???
