I love all 4 of the guys.
And Jess showed that she wasn't the same bitch from high school. So I changed my mind from the first review. She did deserve the screaming orgasms after all.

Honestly the pee scene wasn’t to my taste and I felt like it had been put in purely for shock factor but thankfully it was brief enough to not ruin the read for me.
The plot and villains were kind of minor and inconsequential, just kind of there to add some tension I suppose. The romance, self-acceptance and character development was much more engaging.

I understand that none of those things can be rushed, so on the one hand, I understand why it needed to be broken into two books and why each of the books had to be so long, but to be totally honest, this one still felt a bit too long to me. I think it’s because at least in the first book there was tension; the book started with Jess still hanging with the popular kids and so, plot-wise, a lot more BIG, external shifts had to happen in that book. It kept my attention.
This one, they’re already in a relationship, so all of the shifts that take place happen on a character-driven, emotional level. Sure there’s some outside threat with Manson’s father, but honestly that aspect of the plot feels very marginal.
Don’t get me wrong, I still really enjoyed this series. I enjoyed getting to know each of the guys individually and their stories. The sex was obviously very very hot. The found family element was *chef’s kiss*. It wasn’t bad by ANY means and I’d still absolutely recommend it. I just thought this one moved a little slow at times.
