KINDLE UNLIMITED VERSION IS DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT THAN PHYSICAL PRINT
I don’t know if it is just my copy but I was reading the kindle unlimited version at work and at night and the physical copy on other occasions. While I was highlighting the book I realized that the chapters were off.
Chapter 21 in the kindle unlimited version is actually chapter 22 in the physical print.
Things were taken out in the kindle unlimited version like conversations were changed, things were never said in the physical vs. The kindle unlimited.
The end was very triggering as someone with toxic parents. They made the main character apologize in the kindle unlimited version. In the physical copy she stood her ground. It made me mad reading the kindle edition first and I’m glad I caught the mistake and was able to find some sort of peace knowing that the character stood her ground.
I give the kindle version 2 stars for the many, many mistakes.
If you want to enjoy the book with GOOD character development, read the physical copy.
I’m grateful I read most of the book from the physical.

This was my first B. Celeste book and won't be my last. It started with a bang, and I loved the push and pull of these characters. I'm always here for the men who aren't womanizers, had tons of partners, etc... So when the author stated she flipped the roles, and the H was a virgin, I needed an ARC.
Aiden is a protector and Ivy is a fighter. I reallllllly want stories from the side characters too!

i reallllyyy wanted to like this book BUT it just didn’t hit right. idek I felt like I was in a YA novel where it was just the same drama happening for 337 pages lol
Aiden was a great character. Not your typical fuck boy football player. He is a cinnamon roll, will do anything for Ivy kinda man.
Ivy however…. She’s been through some shit and I get it but man…. She was just a raging bitch most of the time I felt LOL maybe feel sorry for me vibes?? Idek.
I enjoyed it but started to get bored after a bit of reading what felt like the same thing over and over again.
⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
