Romantic books are not my number books unless there is some good drama and something worthy of me to be all over the book. This one did it for me! There are characters I love and hate and it all worked well together. River is amazing. I did not know I like friends to lovers tropes because it was never really done right to me. I love it here! Indigo got on my nerve with how she thought sometimes. I couldn’t stand how she made certain people manipulate her. I’m sorry never let anyone have control over you. I still liked her for other reasons. Ryan was a great friend. Since I used to be a huge reality tv girl the idea of this book was just perfect. I felt as if I was really watching a show on tv. Overall I recommend 🥰

If I had to think about men dying out and mostly women on this earth there would be no happiness there. I have boys and my man, cousins etc. Who wants to see their love ones dying out with no reason on why? The book makes you think about this. I like that. It was a good read. I read this with my ebook and audio. I enjoyed it more like that.

Ummm…ok this was crazy! I gave it a high rating because I like the execution. The heading was exactly what the ass-hole deserved. I wanted more because he did so much to the girls. I needed a little more for his ass. I know they would not let him ever be ok from that last paragraph. There was a little bit of satisfaction with that.

If I say anything I feel like I am giving spoilers. Diving right into the plot is what caught my attention. I felt a strong connection with Olivia and felt sorry for her. I found myself arguing with her mother out law as if I was there. She gave off those vibes and a real mom and the things they would say. Haha. Being immersed in a book making it believable is a good book for me. I like the ending a lot.

Really good!!! Omg! I hated some characters. I did not feel bad when certain characters received what happened to them. I feel Dee couldn’t said what happened without any consequences because she didn’t mean to do what she did. She wanted the guy gone but she wasn’t trying to harm him. Overall, I am satisfied with how this book read and the ending was everything.

I like the way this book ended. Really good. Finding out some stuff about Nora was interesting. I did feel the same about her too. I like her character as well. This was a fast book to read. Could you image trying to figure out who was trying to frame you while also being a surgeon? It would not look good at all. I like how everything came out.

This book comes fully packed with a lot to unpack. There are 6 kids taken to The Leaving but only 5 come back 11 years ago. When they do the unexpected happened to one of the kids father! Which is like a really wtf moment! You have these other kids trying to figure out bits and pieces of the puzzle on where they all went and why. You have one girl thinking she was taken by aliens because truly she wasn’t the best mother. At the end everything comes together. I was happy to find out exactly what happened but also sad because the truth on what happened to the 6th child took me out. The lies having to cover up over the kids on these kids. I get this person was trying to avoid trauma but it wasn’t on them to take a role. Trying not to saying too much lol in case someone is reading this. Good book.

It was an ok read. I needed audiobook to finish it. The middle was just daunting. Once you get past a few chapters the book became interesting again.
I was annoyed with the husband.
I thought the person who did it was Becca’s mother but I learned that was not the case. I wonder if I would be able to handle the situation the way Lizzie did. Would I be able to let this person tell me to my face I killed your daughter because I felt you killed mine. Although I did not kill her at all. I was only doing my job. Hard decisions right.
The ending end the way I expected a book like this would end. It was a cute ending for them.
