This was phenomenal!!!! I've been following this story since it was merely a skit on TikTok and now it's a whole book. It was so surreal to meet all the characters from the videos. I loved everything about this book and the sequel cannot come out soon enough.

So cute, so fluffy, so funny and so full of daddy issues. I loved it so much and Hannah Grace has became one of those authors that I will read without hesitation. I can't wait for the next one.

This series hit the spot so good it's incredible. I fell in love with Harley. She is a phenomenal writer. And I would have given this a 5⭐ rating but toward the end there was this one scene that just wasn't it for me. Other than that it was amazing. I just know I will be re-reading this once again.

The romantic order of reading is absolutely doing it's job. I feel heartbroken and at the same time so numb after reading this. Sarah is an evil mastermind. I'm going to cry now.

I think the reason I never liked this book very much is because I read it in my native language. This was my first time reading it in English, and the number of things that clicked into place was insane. There is so much information that just went over my head because of translation (and don't get me wrong, the translator did a phenomenal job) This series is undoubtedly brilliant, and though this is the second book, it all gets into motion in this book.

This book is nowhere near SJM's best work, but it holds a special place in my heart. And this time, I did a deep dive, and the amount of foreshadowing and details I've missed is unreal. I only wish I could experience this for the first time again.
