Penelope Douglas you hold a special place in my heart. My first romance author that gave me the kick I needed.
Reading this book and seeing the parents honestly reminded me so much of why I fell in love with them in the first place.
Hunter he is so special and so lovable. He went through a lot of growth and that was really beautiful to see.
Dylan I felt like she had some growth but deep down she still held onto her insecurities. And sure those don't disappear over night but I feel like her loving and accepting herself fully was missing. She's reliant in that external validation. And I hope that she will continue to grow through the series.
As for Kade... God was i mad at him the whole book, then I got his side and it hit me right in the heart. I've never felt such a deep relation to a character before. Yes he went about things horribly wrong but in the end he admitted and acknowledged what he did.
And Farrow, man oh man do I LOVE him. He's so funny and cheeky but at the same time so caring and supportive. His relationship with Hunter is truly incredible. I genuinely love him so so much
Overall the underlying mystery is brewing so well I just wish we got fed a bit more pieces. Hunter's love for Dylan is so pure and raw.
And I am literally shaking with excitement from the Sneak peak of Quite ones!
