5.0
This was a re-read, and this book is just as stunningly heartbreaking as it was the first time I read it. I absolutely love getting to spend more time with a couple after their "get together" book, and this one is a DOOZY. Reid handles Ilya's mental health struggles so well, and I think the normalization of therapy and medication (and how a partner cannot fix you if your brain chemistry is fighting you) is so so important. Truly following Shane and Ilya from Heated Rivalry into this book is truly watching them grow up and into amazing men and I absolutely adore their dynamic.
I laughed, I cried, I got turned on (I mean the trophy room scene?? please???), I cried again. Truly a book I will always recommend
