HOLY BALLS the chokehold this book is going to have on me. AHHHH to be able to read it again for the first time, Quinn and Ransom are actually the cutest cause wtf! They are literally such an amazing enemy to lovers with a drizzle of found family, not only were the main characters witty but so were their friends. I literally fell in love with Fox and Jax because how can you not!! I can say that without a doubt I will be getting the sequel whenever it comes out :).
Thank you booksprout for allowing me to read this amazing book.

High like 3.7/5
I enjoyed the book. I felt invested in their relationship and in them getting together. Doesn’t mean there weren’t issues with the book. First, I never really felt like I understood why they couldn’t be together. Things build up to them finally making out, they obviously wanted each other, but they keep pulling back. I think at one point she even says something like “We can’t do that again.” But when I ask myself “why?” I couldn’t remember a good reason they couldn’t be together.
I get it, Quinn was worried about what other people would think because of the leaked sex tape and was afraid a bad boy was gonna hurt her, but any man can hurt you. She'd already been hurt by supposedly 'nice guys,' yet continues to think she should be with one. It just felt like a lame excuse. Especially since Ransom did nothing but give to her - his love, his support, his kindness, his time, his protection. She focused too much on the stereotype of a ‘bad boy’ rather than on Ransom himself, and how well he treated her.
Second, Quinn herself was fucking infuriating. Time and time again, whenever a hurdle came in their way, Quinn did nothing but run away and avoid Ransom. He had nothing to do with the photo posted of them, and she even knew he wouldn’t do that to her, but she still ran off, relying on that snobby cunt Josie who’s been nothing but a selfish judgmental bitch from the start. What kind of “best friend” hangs out with people that bully you and treat you like shit? I knew Josie was a terrible person from the start. And it was infuriating that Quinn would turn to this bitch, who turns out was one of the people that fucked her over, and avoided the person that only wanted to support her and protect her. At one point I was almost literally yelling at my kindle “Stop fucking running away from Ransom. Are you kidding me?!”
Spice was there, it was decent - pretty standard romance spice but nothing extraordinarily ‘hot hot hot’ or kinky.
Overall, I was entertained and felt invested, which I guess is how I really gauge my book ratings. I can see myself returning to Hollows Garage, getting to read the other character’s stories and hopefully getting background updates on Quinn and Ransom.

This was good. I’ve not really read anything like it. I feel like some pieces were a bit choppy and we were left hanging with some things.
I liked the story, and how it played out. I’m very interested in reading the rest of the series.
3.75⭐️

DNF @ 67% the sex without discussion of protection in any form is what pushed me over the edge. That is so irresponsible as an author.
There is no plot, so you’d think it’d be made up for by a character heavy story…but Quinn acts like a child and essentially strings Ransom along for 50% of the book.
Literally every single man outside of the main 4 or 5 is a piece of shit that wants to have sex with Quinn and just pretty much approaches her propositioning it. In my opinion that is not how you should show bullying because of leaked sex tapes, it’s completely inaccurate.
There’s a nice female best friend at the start who within like 2 chapters gets written as a complete bitch and is barely mentioned again. It was so unnecessary- why do we not want this girl to have more than one female friend???
So disappointed after hearing such good things about this.

There was an entire gambit of emotions while reading this. Outrage. Fury. Sorrow. Pain. Trust. Reluctance. Love. Adrenaline. All of it.
Don’t sleep on this book (or the series) because it was absolute perfection.
Ransom and Quinn are incredible, and they became even better once they got together.
