Holy father offfffff… I rarely go into books with expectations but after reading the blurb for the first time, seeing all my kryptonite tangle, the expectations just bombarded me but all hail the Rebecca. 🖤 with a passion. 10/10. Favorite of the series. Like I licked the whole plate and I am still starving for more because it was that delicious. I mean, yeah it was an instant obsession from the prologue but who cares when it was that damn good.

Let me encourage you with one dialogue: “No.” - “No, what?" - “No, that's not what I fantasize about." - “Well, what is it then?" - "Just… touching you."

I think my favorite aspect of this book was the ultimate support both characters had for each other. It’s been a few days since I finished this story but they’re still both on my god damn mind. (Don’t leave.)

I knew that the price of having this opportunity was my autonomy.” // "He wanted to make sure he could be in the corner with you." // “I want to show you what I'm capable of." // "The first time I saw you, you were on stage…” …
