The Enlightened by Cassandra Robbins
2.5
I'm both sighing in relief it's over and sad that it ended.
Their story started off in the right way. Childhood love like no other, two kids completely gone for each other all the way to their early adulthood.
That's when it all went sideways and the book started not making sense or being realistic. A lot of the shit that happened was unnecessary and just irrelevant. I got lost and got bored.
By the end of this second book, they both finally grew up and started thinking properly for themselves and their futures. It went back to being a good book.
I can't deny that the middle agonising scenes were heartwrenching (in a good way) sometimes, but that's the thing... SOMETIMES when theirpast came back and you'd see those two kids completely apart now it's perfect but most times it was so far off away from the plot that I forgot what book I was reading.

Finally! A recent release that's pure fluff.
I don't know about you, but I've missed books where there's yearning and love and grovelling and-
Anyways it's a fast cute read with characters who grow into their own people without having to hurt the other to do it.. no psychotic breaks, no cheating, no NOTHING of what we get nowadays.

That was so good. Cringe at times, but good.
Leo bot & Rosie clamshell for the win.

Unfortunately, this was not it. Although I LOVED the first book. I do love Phoenix & McKenzie though ♡

NIX & KENZ!!!
After reading the Deception trilogy, I was obsessed and needed a book with a similar plot. The FMC loses her memory and falls for the MMC all over again, when he starts treating her right from the beginning this time around, only for her to regain her memories and realise that a lot has been done and said.
The only downside is the author's obsession with breaking the fourth wall. I don't need Ryan Reynolds and Harry Potter references while I'm trying to escape reality.
