I feel very similarly about this book as I did twisted love. Probably because the characters are literally the exact same people

He is way too possesive and the relationship is super toxic. Hoped for something else.

YES THANK YOU.
That is exactly what I wanted from the first book and the author gave it to me in this sequel.
I devoured this in just a few hours and I absolutely loved it.
I switched between a 4,25 and a 4,5 a couple of times, but I finally settled on 4,25. Rhys might have been too possessive/rough to my taste, but I was able to get past it. Of course, it is very toxic, but romance's main purpose in to make us live things that we couldn't/wouldn't possibly live in real life.
The relationship between Bridget and Rhys was just the right amount of sweet, steamy and angsty. I was hooked from the beginning and I was living for every single forbidden look and touch.
If you are looking for a angsty slow burn, ''slightly'' toxic, romance, this is the book for you.
