Rachel was sweet, had a sensitive side, but was strong and sexy too.
The guys were a perfect blend of everything you want in a man. And there are 3 of them. She has 3 holes so it works out perfectly.
The sex was hot and the scenes were varied. It wasn't 750 pages of the same thing over and over.
This book has been recommended in so many book groups, and I'm glad I finally got to it. Fun summer read 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Edit. The audio is pretty bad. Amy Hall has this halting delivery, Ash Beverly forgets he is supposed to be Finnish, and Alex Kydd has this odd chuckle that he does. It really was hard to listen to.

Jake is a bundle of sunshine. He made his way onto my list of favourite fictional characters almost instantly. If he were real, I think he’d be too good for this earth. I want to wrap him in cotton wool and give him everything he could ever dream of. I truly think that Rachel and Jake are soulmates, that much was clear from the prequel (which I adored). I wish I’d learned more about Jake’s upbringing or personal life in general through this book.
In fact, I wish that for Caleb and Ilmari too, though the latter was covered a lot more than Jake and Caleb. It felt, at times, that these men were dropped into Rachel’s story, rather than them all being equal narrators.
I did spend a large portion of the book wondering why Ilmari was included but, towards the end, I think as the four of them grew closer, I came around to it. It wasn’t the fact that they added a fourth person to their relationship, but rather than I couldn’t understand how Rachel saw so much in him when he gives very very little away. Even the parts he gives to Rachel were, to me, very unsubstantial, but I think that I could feel that way just because I’m comparing him to a loud, extroverted American like Jake.
I’m not sure if I’ll continue with the series, but I did enjoy this book. It wasn’t my typical plot and it honestly shocked me in parts (which rarely happens) but I was intrigued and keen to know more almost throughout the entire book.
Also, I really want to know how Poseidon came about. Why does Caleb feel so insecure about him? We really didn’t delve into that. I need more.

I wish I would have read this book sooner but at the same time I wish I never read it so I could experience it for the first time again. The feelings between the characters in this book are unreal, I love Rachel & Caleb & Jake & Ilmari so fckn much. THIS BOOK MADE ME FEEL ALL THE FEELS, MY GOD. I started with the audio & immediately bought a physical copy to cherish because the audio wasn't enough, I needed them together & I will be writing in my physical copy when I re read, which honestly I could just start re reading it tomorrow even tho I just finished it today. THIS BOOK GETS ALL THE STARS & I WILL NEVER RECOVER FROM IT. It's literally my favorite book I've ever read!!!! Pls excuse me while I go buy all the book merch now!
