The emotional damage is real with this one! I genuinely don’t know if I will ever recover, and I’m finding it incredibly difficult to put my thoughts and feelings in to words right now!

This story and these characters were so well thought out, there were deeper meanings to everything. Every connection and every relationship had so many levels to them.

This was beautiful, heartbreaking, confronting, literally so many different emotions.

An absolutely incredible story, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to read this as an arc.

I ate this up. Completely devoured it!

I had no idea what to expect going in to this (who has time to read blurbs?) but as soon as I read the words ‘key party’ I knew I was in for a good time. I just didn’t anticipate how much of a good time!

I am lowkey obsessed with Hawk and Jett and they will be added to my book boyfriend HoF! The spice in this book was just perfect!
