BOO. HISS. no. She’s 17. He’s 21. and that was hidden until 85%. Also the MMC was written in a way that he would not do or act or say 98% of the things he does. So like?????

Crying on the beach over Chloe and Gus. 

These two ex’s are the hottest, softest, and most delightful second chance romance that I have ever read. I loved them so much.

Probably should have DNFd this book... one of the most poorly written books I've read. Awful poly rep and really shady relationships on all fronts. I don't mind cheating in books if it's done well, but this was a dumpsterfire garbage mess.

An absolultely brilliant debut from Rae Douglas. 

This book was soft and sexy, emotional and engaging, and full of some of the most beautiful writing. A soft dark romance filled with people who may not be perfect, but they sure are perfect for each other. 

I adored Gwen and Charlie and cannot wait for the rest of this series.
