“I don’t have the money to buy you all the flowers you deserve yet. So I made them instead.”
This series has been a blast so far. Not one has disappointed me but this one was an instant five stars for me. I never thought I'd love a marriage in trouble storyline but apparently, I do. This one for some reason made me feel a lot of emotions. When Alessandra had that breakdown and told Dominic that she wants a divorce because Dom hasn't been caring her for the past years, I felt that. If we take people for granted, it just hurts more once they're gone. Also, please boys, never forget an anniversary. It's just that one date that you have to remember, nothing more.
Then there was the past and present timeline which I just loved. It showed how Dom was head over heels in love with Ale. So it was pretty understandable where Dom was coming from, although, what he did to Ale is not justifiable. I just can't ignore how Dom really just straight out traded his work to win out Ale. That's really how we knew that he knew he messed up big time. He really showed Ale that he wants him back and he's willing to do everything within his power to win her back. And that's literally what he did. I just can't get over that. Maybe because I'm semi-relating with Ale and that's why this book just hit differently but I just love their relationship. I'm glad things worked out. I'm sorry for Dom's brother but damn he also did sacrifice for Dom.
I'm also super glad to have caught up with the series just in time for King of Sloth! Also, can we just take a moment to thank Ana for Jules and Josh' cameo? Thank you, Ana, for bringing back my favorite Twisted couple!

Alessandra was an enjoyable character to read about as her journey to re-discover herself was full of the awkward, humbling, challenging, funny, and rewarding experiences people often deal with in their everyday life. It was lovely to see her evolve throughout the book to the point where her happiness was palpable and contagious. What I think can't be let passed by however, is that Dom wasn't the only toxic person in their marriage, Alessandra also was as for a while she was just lettig all of it build up until she exploded and filed for divorce. That I think was another quite realistic part of this book
Dominic was without a doubt frustrating to read about at the beginning of the book, but his dedication to better himself and point out where he went wrong was refreshing to read. What was even better to read about was him finding contentment in his life, whether it was at his job, with Ále, or with himself, seeing him finally be at peace with his current life was the closure the book needed.
The side characters were phenomenal in this book, like Dante and Kai knocking some sense into Dominic, Sloane and her perpetual avail, Vivian and Isabella's never-ending support, or Marcelo's hilarious appearances. Roman's character was also quite interesting and I can't wait to see if he'll be mentioned in other books.
The cameos were everything. Are sure it's JUST a work dinner Sloane??? And Viv and Dante's daughter!!
Overall a very enjoyable read, however I did find it a bit short, I'm very excited for King of Sloth as that one is a book I simply CANNOT wait for. I adore Sloane and Xavier seems like a very entertaining character, as well as very different from other mmc from Ana Huang. Their dynamic is one I'm very intrigued to read about.
