Reread.

Right. I love this series, love these characters, but I'd be lying if I didn't say this books got issues. It drags a bit when the story turns into

in-which-Jess-says-"I love you"-one-by-one

. Jess's mother does not get the comeuppance she deserves. But. BUT. The romance. The feels. I love these characters and I only want the best for them and this story is a part of that so how could I rate it poorly. It's got lots going for it if you can work around its issues. This story has stayed with me in a way I never would have anticipated, I love it.

This series hit the spot so good it's incredible. I fell in love with Harley. She is a phenomenal writer. And I would have given this a 5⭐ rating but toward the end there was this one scene that just wasn't it for me. Other than that it was amazing. I just know I will be re-reading this once again.
