Jesus H Christ. I genuinely don't understand how this and the first book were written by the same person. Like the first book was fine but THIS. Lordy. I adored this book. Warner is my favorite as resident lover and pyscho but, Kenji is a verryyy close second as probably one of the only people who doesn't handle Juliette with kid gloves. I am so excited for the next books for real.

Super entertaining. Not written particularly well and it was pretty slow at times, but I had fun. :) I adore Kenji. Juliette needs an adult. Adam, you gotta chill. Oh man, if I had

two brothers who hated each other but were desperately in love with me

I would simply go away. Way too much drama.

So much better then the 1st book!!

Tbh Juliette at first seemed like a cry baby but I get where she come from.
But like damn gurl, u amazing <3

...Adam... in The 1st book, I loved him more than u could imagine, but in this book he just seems a lil manipulative and controlling to me.. I know he wants her to be safe but like dude she is the one who will keep YOU safe-

Next up my fav character, Kenji. 
I fr need someone like him in my life... someone who has a sense of humor but is still serious when needed.

And the we have Warner. Aaron Warner. Omg like damn, I got no words. My boi has gone through so much... he deserves so much better <3 

Also can we also appreciate "the girls" where do I get friends like them

Overall, the book is amazing!!
