It was amazing! The depth of the characters (not to mention everyone is lovely), the gut-wrenching darkness behind their stories, the beauty of finding the light within each other... Wow
I can't even form coherent thoughts yet. It's going to take me a minute.
I mean, I already loved the characters, but as a couple they're even better.
The smut was fucking amazing (and, let's take a moment to appreciate how refreshing it was to not have a virgin FMC again), the romance on point and the plot just... chef's kiss.
And the cameos of the other couples made me giggle all around, though I missed Astrid and Levi but Xander and Kimmy are a beauty. And then there's Cole, I see you honey, don't you think I don't, I'm coming for you next.
PS: Fuck pedophiles.
PS2: Lars, the man you are. I've only known you for a few days but if anything ever happened to you I would kill everybody involved and then myself.
PS3: I was kinda sad that this one didn't have a bonus scene from Ronan's POV, but honestly, it doesn't even need it. Then again, none of the other ones did either and they where pretty mediocre anyway. Plus, I usually hate the bonus scenes because why can't they just save me the hassle and include it in the book in the first place. But I'm always down for a few more words about these two.

it's a bit of a different set up when compared to the other ones in the series because neither character has been there from the beginning of beginnings and they have no shared history in the past, unlike the other couples. so the relationship would all have to be built and developed on page for the reader to see and believe in it, root for them.
I don't it was that well done, but I did enjoy what I read and I believe that it does give the couple its credibility. I really enjoyed how the author went down certain roots and how she explored (even though very superficially) some aspects and new kinks. the way they ended up being connected was actually pretty believable and although its a very bad reason and even worse experience, I enjoyed how it reflected in the characters and shaped them.
I think this is definitely one of my favorite books from this series and I really was not expecting it.
Moderate: Child abuse
