5.0

I genuinely enjoyed this book throughout and it kept me hooked from start to finish which is no easy feat to accomplish
I did get serious whiplash from all the times a character seemed to have made up their mind about it/accepted something but had changed their mind by the next chapter. But like not in a bad way? I think I might need to do some soul searching about why I loved this book as much as I did (and I will do so by finding and reading the rest of this series and probably more).
Like this book tore out my heart, then stomped on it, then repaired and put it back, then kicked it into a den of hungry lions, then fixed it again. I've been a mess, not gonna lie, and this book is (like at least 60%) at fault for it.
Ares is such an adorable but edgy simp-dom? I don't think its a phrase but it should be and he should be the definition. Never have I seen a (fictional) man who is so sexily domineering but at the same time so simpily sweet and accommodating and caring.
And Raven! I did not expect this My Sister's Keeper stuff but oh man did it wreck me!! (It's one of my fav movies of all time)
Anyway I'm off to continue the series!

You can't not fall in love with Ares. 
I never before read a book where throughout the whole thing I thought "I wish someone in the future treats me like he does her". 

From 0-100% this book had me in captivity. Reading this I felt like I was in my own bubble nothing was able to make me put this book down for more than a minute. Literally. 

I haven't even managed to copy many of the good quotes I read because I was so immersed in just reading. 

This book is medium long but the roller-coaster of emotions I went through made it feel longer than it is. Be prepared to smile, laugh, cry, giggle, scream, curse, sob, roll eyes and kick your feet in the air throughout the book.

Give this book a chance and Enjoy 💕
