4.5 stars. First of all, why is it that no one ever mentions this book when talking about the series??? This was so good and better than the last one by far. I think this is my first time reading friends to lovers to strangers then back to lovers. It was like friends to lovers/second chance wrapped into one. I read this in less than 24 hours because the chapters and the book itself is pretty short but I was hooked the entire time.
Logan and Alyssa are two damaged people who have had very difficult lives. The only difference between them really is that her and her family are financially well off but he isn't. You can feel the connection they have and how they were so desperate to cling on to one another but at the same time it was toxic. Logan's demons were worse than hers. I still felt bad for him though. I felt for Alyssa as well. The only thing I didn't like was that I felt like Alyssa was pretty much begging him to be with her at times. I loved that they got their happy ending though. Overall this was really emotional and pulled at my heartstrings.
