What did I just read?  Why did I even read it?

I don't know what I was expecting, but it definitely did not deliver.  Also, the twist was obvious from a mile away.

I think I was swayed by those that said they loved the couple.  I've read darker romances before and they've been meh to okay so I figured, maybe this is the one.  It was not the one.

4 star read⭐️. honestly i really liked this book and i’m fully committed to finishing the series but here’s my review on book 1:

during the first 30/40 percent of the book i couldn’t get into it. like the plot was appealing the characters were cute the writing was easy to get through but it felt repetitive. like yes i know their problems but must we cover it every chapter. every chapter felt like the same thing for a while but then everything switches.

when we meet connor cobalt i was suddenly so freaking interested but this book isn’t about him :)

i loved lily and lo so much. like if this book was a standalone with an epilogue i would EAT IT UP. but i get to read 4 other books from lily and lo’s perspectives which i would happily eat up.

4 stars because the book was really good. the past 2 chapters had some PLOT TWISTS. i was out here gasping every page. but i have such a high expectation for this series so i want to start off slow.

OH and. when i finished this book i went RUNNING for the second one because that ending left me shook i needed more. okay bye <3
