While dark, not as dark, as I expected.

I also love the dynamic of we don’t wanna share, but if we don’t share she won’t choose.

I’m definitely interested in figuring out who the other twin is with and also seeing her cousin’s relationship.

So I did cry a couple of times, I didn’t expect this to be as emotional for a MC romance.

I did find a mystery to be kind of long winded. I also kind of figured something was going on, especially with the letter and what she knows of her father.

I just didn’t make sense what his actions versus his previous actions in passion. I totally agree with her when it was her in Wesley and her asking just to be number one in someone’s life.

Overall, I liked it!

Even though I knew the shock scene, I still cried! 

That’s all I have for you! Not needed, but am happy to have this extra book with my favorite couple.

I thought it would be a little bit more than what this was…

I think I read ruthless night two years ago, so I didn’t get this story when I read that book. I thought it was gonna be more brutal than what it was because the second book made, it seem like it was.

The Liam thing, what started the whole thing. I could wholeheartedly understand how the bullying came about. But once you heard the crazy story about what led up to the Liam situation and took your very hurt feelings out of it. The person that you grew up with with never do that so what made you think that they did and continue to hold this horrible grudge on something they didn’t do. Based off someone who hates you.

I think my only con for this book is that there wasn’t enough sex scenes.

Everything else the storyline, the fluff, the chemistry I fell in love with end of this meet me want to read the next book in the series because I see the chemistry between the couple for that book.

I’m also very happy that this isn’t a reformed playboy kind of thing or Alyssa didn’t give off that to me. This was a man who hadn’t been dating for awhile because he’s been focusing on his career, and by awhile I mean a few months, but him noticing, himself, that he wants a real relationship. 

That’s what I loved about this! You could tell that this was on him for everything to go right. Because she was fighting the attraction and him showcasing that they could be friends first, so it is very soft side, that I didn’t know I like to my H’s! 

I would definitely read read this, and I’m super happy that I got it in physical.

4.75!

I am really glad to finally get their story. Although I did feel like it was kind of a half or 3/4 story because Hannah played a very large role in the story.

I think about, is it make me like the story even more, because I love Hannah. This also makes me think that something really did happen in the end of even if it hurts with all three of them.

I’m really wanting that scene and the extra at the end of this book with the conversation with Dare. Makes me lean towards it more.

I’m definitely waiting for Sophie to come in and give us a little bit more plot, especially since the spinoff was really good so now having her story line with Aubrey in there will be even better. 

I’m glad I read this book and I’m happy to have it finally in physical form because I started reading this when it came out on KU and when it finally published as a print, I had to stop reading on KU and read it physically!!
