I'm still not completely sure what I just read. I started reading and was a little lost, I then realized I should pick up the Dare first, so I did. It is not necessary to read this book, but it does fill in a lot of blanks between chapters 1 and 2, and also for future parts of the story. 

I did like the flashbacks to high school and pivotal moments where Jess interacted with each other guys, and how it impacted them. I love the relationship between Manson, Lucas, Jason and Vincent, and learning what their relationship was like pre-Jess, and how it looked now that Jess joined their group. 

I'm interested to see where this is going to go. You can tell that people are starting to have feelings and more emotions in the relationship, but Jess is supposed to be leaving. I will be picking up the second book in this duet!

Please note, that this book has ALL the triggers. Please check them before you proceed if needed.
