Picked this up right after the first because of the cliffhanger - I don't envy those who read these when they came out. I really liked how the relationship dynamics and characters were expanded upon in this one. It's always nice to see when characters make decisions that aren't maybe the best choices.
Some questions are answered/resolved from the first book but there is another cliffhanger at the end, fair warning. I think I liked this one nearly equally as much as I liked the first. There are many dark topics in this (mentions of SA, blackmailing, stalking, mentions of extreme religious/traditional views, toxic relationships, physical abuse, gaslighting) so be warned.
But beyond that you have loving relationships being built on and I really enjoyed that aspect. Will definitely be reading the next one!
