Aaahhh this book! It ripped my heart out at the end and I could not put it down. I loved that Evangeline finally had a turning point at the end in how she communicated with Jacks, but the plot twists!!! 😱 It’s definitely a slow burn, and sometimes Evangeline made some stupid choices just to spite Jacks, which I didn’t like, but I simultaneously cannot wait to start the next book and am also terrified to read it.

Well THAT’S what I call a perfect book ! Absolutely loved it! I can’t believe the second book of this series is as good as the first one, I can’t wait to read the third. 
The plot, the characters, everything was good.

This series is WRECKING me. omg like Jacks we KNOW you love Evangeline, just tell her 😭 honestly, such good writing, so many twists and turns

THE ENDING OMG. she DIED and he's SCREAMING. and "there's nothing of equal value to me." 😭😭😭 also Apollo can go die in a whole. he's the beefiest jerky ever to exist, I hate him. Jack's succeeded in saving her life, just for Apollo to ERASE HER MEMORIES?!?! shut up
