As always it’s was as great as I thought it would be. I was a bit nervous at first with the fact it was her first lgbtq+ book of the series and wasn’t sure how it was gonna flow. It was beautifully written, deep and reflective. It spoke about mental health issue, suicidal tendencies and sexuality. I love everything about it, the spice and emotion, perfect ❤️

I loved the subject matter of religion in a spicy romance book! The series is really good I liked the first two books best though. This book while I enjoyed it was too similar to the first book's plot. I do like that it was queer. Some portions of the book it found it repetitive like, <I am stuck between the two things I love the most and can't have one without the other.>

One of my favorite parts of the book is when <he is talking about his depressive episode. I felt very connected to the character in this chapter because of how Simone wrote about it. She explained it through subtle things that go through your mind and how it affects the people around you.> Lastly, the ending is perfect. not dragged out for ten more chapters after the climax, but keep concise and still connected to the material.

I loved this book “like everything”. The only reason it don’t get five stars was the pacing, which felt slow and made it harder to get through compared to the first two in the series. But despite this, it was 100% my fave of the three.

First of all it is not because of the LGBTQIA relationship. I simply can’t stand characters who beat themselves up while refusing to change.

As a stand-alone book, this is rly good, but compared to the rest of the series it fees like a lot more of the same… but gay this time

Like for all I love aiden and elijah it was honestly pretty predictable and didn’t get good until after halfway through
