I wish I could erase this from my mind just so I could read it again for the first time.

Touch-adverse high school senior switches schools to escape violence at home and runs into the hot-headed boy who accidentally punched her during summer vacation. She wants nothing to do with him, but he's determined to make amends and help her heal.
There's a lot of drama and angst packed into this book, but at its core is the extremely sweet and tender relationship between Sebastian (Bass) and Sugar. Sugar is dealing with trauma from her past and was extremely standoffish at the beginning of the book for numerous reasons, but Bass was so patient and gentle with her. Both of them have manipulative/abusive family members so it felt right that they work through their issues together.
The authors did a fantastic job writing Bass's mindset of a teenaged boy who can barely stop thinking with his d*ck. It won't be for everyone, but I thought Bass was hilariously entertaining as an adorably cocky rich pretty boy. It paired well with his protective nature and wanting to spoil Sugar and his female friends with gifts.
This is the third book in the Boys of Preston Prep series. I read book 1 but skipped 2 and still followed the plot and characters easily enough.

I hated the way this book started. Like I get that It’s an accident then…
Other than that it’s pretty solid. Both of them have personality and are genuinely good people.

Forever obsessed with Sebastian! That's all I have to say! Can't believe how these books turned out to be so good! Hope the last one exceeds my expectations as well because this one was perfection!

So this wasn’t my favorite because I personally couldn’t relate to Sugar or Sebastian however it was an interesting read and the spice was good so there is that.
