CW: violence, stalking, domestic violence, emotional abuse

I liked Nash and Maddie's story. I like how Maddie and Nash have people to talk to work out their feelings and sort themselves out. The suspense portion keeps things interesting. I enjoyed how Nash and Maddie communicated. There isn't a third-act breakup.

okay listen I liked this one a lot more than the first one, but not enough to save the series for me 😅 I just feel like there’s so many other indie series that do romantic suspense better (I’m so sorry) 

that being said, best friends to lovers always makes me emo 🥹 and for once, there wasn’t any miscommunication or third act breakup, so that was a win in my book! 

I just found nash to be a little too possessive for me, even though I appreciate how open he was with his brothers and vice versa about giving her the space she needed. it just felt that he was not giving her enough space to heal and be herself not around her abusive ex. 

I did love the suspense elements way more in this one!! it wasn’t so much a mystery but wondering when the next shoe would drop and cause chaos 🤯 the ending needed a bit more workshop because the back to back almost unaliving the same character was a little overkill in my opinion 🤷🏼‍♀️

yes, I will continue this series but it’s going to be a one off for me!

This follows Maddie and Nash. Maddie runs back to her hometown to hide from her abusive ex and rebuild her life. Nash and Maddie have been best friends since childhood and he would do anything to protect her. Now Maddie has returned, old wounds are bought up and the love they have for each other can they resist for long.

I enjoyed this story and I love how you feel all the emotions the characters were feeling. The plot was great and love all the characters.
The only few things I need to mention is Nash in the first book was quite funny and lighthearted. I was hoping it would show in this book but it was more serious. Also, there is one incident that is a big deal in this book that is very similar to a scene in the first book. My heart wasn't pounding in this book like it did in Whispers Of You. But I still really enjoyed this read!
