Possible spoiler at the bottom:

Honestly a STELLAR book. Fast paced and had my mouth open gasping a few times. Didn’t have a ton of expectation for what this book would be, but SO glad that i read it. The only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star was because it felt a little too fast paced. I think i’m used to over explanation of details, and i didn’t really feel like i got a chance to breathe while i read this book, but it truly was an amazing book. Highly, highly recommend, especially as a quick read.

Possible Spoiler: I also would have loved the ending to be a bit longer where we can see Luke and Sloan’s brother, Stephen, meet again, or just see Luke and Sloan’s life further.

Some pretty big content warnings here especially when it comes to sexual violence / assault. It’s manageable, but I probably would have preferred a heads up.

Chapeau to Colleen Hoover for - once more - making me feel empathy for the bad guy until the last page.

Quick read/listen. A lot of dark/graphic/triggering events. I like stories told from multiple perspectives, such as this.

I thought this book was slow at the beginning and I was trying really hard to like it despite the simple writing style and my bias toward the author. I am happy to say that halfway through the book, the story took a wild turn and carried me through until the very end with unexpected twists and turns! I finished this book so fast and the only reason I rated it less than 5 stars is because of the slow start. I also didn’t like how fast the two main characters “fell in love”. Literally it was like a week or two. They just met! Other than that, it was amazing and I would recommend to anyone that likes thrillers.
