I am loving this series! This book had so many moments where I was listening and my mouth was hanging open. So many twists. The heat… well it was there, but it’s set to a low simmer. And I’ll just say it, I’m team Warner.
Not sure I have anything to add to this review this time around.

Juliette is finally becoming a character I’m growing to love. The first book mainly showcased her standing in the sidelines, which though made sense for her character, was starting to get old.
This story is one of mental and physical resistance. What I like about Juliette as a character is she’s never been one to be like “I’m so tough because of what I’ve been through.” What she has experienced in her life is extreme trauma. No one would be able to turn around from that without severe mental health consequences. This story is not her shoving away her trauma, but starting to embrace what happened in the past and not exactly “overcome” it per se, but realize that it’s always going to be a part of her life and she can’t change that, but she can keep moving forward.
I would highly recommend continuing on this series even if you weren’t the biggest fan of the first book, trust me it gets better.
