That ending left me with too many emotions. I just needed to gush about these characters for a bit since no one in real life will get excited and talk about these characters with me. I didn't even mention the plot of the novel, but if you've made it this far you probably already know what it's about. Not as much as I did the first book, I have to admit. But no, Bryce and Hunt were everything together. Sarah has a tendency to bait us into falling for one guy, just for another dude to come in for the win. I was worried about Hunt, I'm not gonna lie. The banter, the chemistry, loyalty, and love they have between them is everything. That brood of highly competent, badass idiots are all my babies and they better come out unscathed. I loved the dynamic and I loved how Ruhn's house just kept getting more and more crowded and they all just accepted it like it was nothing. I picked him out in book one as my comfort character in this series and I am way too invested in this man's well-being. What I was really here for, more than the plot twists, was the characters! Gosh darn it, I love all of these characters so much!!! I really wasn't kidding about rioting if anything happens to them. After a while, it kinda felt like SJM just wanted to introduce new things and didn't know how so she threw them into Danika's bag of secrets and called it a day.īut, whatever. Danika had a whole secret life, filled with so many secrets and people that Bryce never knew about. And honestly, it's because half the time most of those twists were coming entirely out of left field and it was all Danika's fault! I was getting second-hand embarrassment for Bryce every time something new was revealed about her supposed 'best friend'. While I did predict the outcome to several plot twists, like the identity of agent Daybright, there were a billion other twists that I didn't see coming, like that ending for which nothing could have prepared me for!!!!.

Every time I thought I knew where the story was going, a whole other layer of complications and magic and worldbuilding was added to the mix. I can't even count the number of times I had to put it down and walk away for a minute because I was scared to read what happened next. I'll try to write a review but bear with me.įirst, let me just say that if anything happens to Ruhn and Hunt I am going to riot.
