We first meet Callum in Suddenly Forbidden (book 1), and I fell in love with him. He seemed like this super sweet guy and at one point I was rooting for him to end up with the heroine Daisy rather than the actual hero Quinn. Then, we learned that Callum was still hung up on his ex Renee. I remember messaging Ella after reading Suddenly Forbidden and asking if Callum was getting his own book because I wanted him to have an HEA.

Then, we meet Renee in Bittersweet Always and she didn't leave the best impression on me. Then, we got the bombshell truth about Callum and Renee's relationship at the end of Bittersweet Always, and I was sold. I was DYING to know Callum and Renee's story and how they got to the point where they were. And finally here it is. The book I was for sure the most excited for out of all the books in the entire Gray Springs University series. Callum and Renee's book, Pretty Venom.

Reading Pretty Venom was a crazy rollercoaster ride. I was swooning, angry, frustrated, annoyed, swooning again, then I wanted to pull Callum and Renee and knock their heads together. But holy cow Pretty Venom was an incredibly entertaining read. I couldn't stop reading!

I was ready to fall in love with Callum. But, you guys, I hated Callum. So much. Then, I'd forgave him a little, then hate him all over again. I'm glad we got his chapters because I would've hated him all throughout the book. Surprisingly, it was Renee I felt for while at the same time I wanted to shake her and give her a good talking to.

Like I said, Pretty Venom was a crazy ride. My feelings were all over the place with this one. Not everyone is going to like it for sure. After I read it, I wasn't even sure how I felt. But, after mulling it for a day, I decided that while the characters drove me crazy, I wouldn't want it any other way. Pretty Venom was one hell of a read! It's been a while since I felt so many feelings reading a book and I may never get over it.
