4.6 stars.
This was such a good series.

And loved these characters and their relationships.
The plot was exciting and interesting. Though I did have suspicions pretty early, and I couldn’t help feeling impatient throughout this book for them to just figure it all out already.

Even with my impatience, I do think it all played out in perfect timing.

I would’ve liked more time to hash out the budding romance between Rowe and Heath more though. I feel like that part of it was sort of rushed and kind of thrown behind the scenes instead of fully immersed within the group dynamic.
It made it seem more like a side thing than just more love being shared.

Regardless, I had a really good time reading about these characters and all of their hardships being overcome.

That ending was really satisfying, but I 1000% recommend signing up for the newsletter so you get the bonus epilogue. It made everything feel more complete in my mind.

I’m just glad I gave this a chance.
I’ll be sure to check out other books by this author soon.
I liked the drama tangled so deeply into this story.
So good.
