These two idiots were kind of adorable. That said, this installment isn't quite one of my favorites. I still enjoyed myself. I always love coming back to this series. Something about Saxon James and Eden Finley's books is so comforting to come back to. I love the beautiful idiots of the Queer Collective, and we got to see a lot of them in this one. This story was fun and enjoyable but isn't up at the top as one of my favorites in this series. I think I just had a hard time connecting with Easton and Knox. They aren't bad characters per se, I just didn't feel much depth to them. I was honestly more intrigued by Connor in this story than the MCs themselves. I wasn't expecting an angsty story by any means, but with a title like 'Forbidden Puckboy', I was expecting more secrecy similar to what we saw in 'Shameless Puckboy'. The only secrecy was one kiss, and then Easton told everyone about it not long after. Ultimately, this story just wasn't what I expected. I still enjoyed myself, but it will probably be a bit forgettable.
