the most insane, knee bending, mind altering, earth shattering plot twist i’ve ever read. it felt like being hit by a bus. i had to put the book down the most insane, knee bending, mind altering, earth shattering plot twist i’ve ever read. it felt like being hit by a bus. i had to put the book down for a hot minute and stare at the wall and ask myself “wtf did i just read?”
why was this book with a cutesy pink cover pulling at my heart strings? lauren asher you will rue the day!
one thing i love is a DILF! and the one thiwhy was this book with a cutesy pink cover pulling at my heart strings? lauren asher you will rue the day!
one thing i love is a DILF! and the one thing i love more than that is a tortured, sad, and angry DILF! cuz i know for all his faults, he’s gonna pull a whole 180° and rock my mf world! rafael is a prime example of all that. he shows his love through his actions. from putting flowers in his girl’sp hair who’s not even his girl yet, holding her hand and distracting her because she has flight anxiety, buying her gifts with meaning and adding a cute little note attached, ect. he makes me feel so high school iykyk. the way he worked on himself to be a better man for himself and to others…who’s cutting the mf onions?!?!!! “I may not be the one you envisioned for yourself, but I won’t stop until I feel like I’m worthy of you.” and he proves just that ...more
i will kill myself if i don’t get a man as obsessed with me as eli was with rue, so help me god‼️
Eli Killgore is a SLUT! he really said “i’ll cook, cli will kill myself if i don’t get a man as obsessed with me as eli was with rue, so help me god‼️
Eli Killgore is a SLUT! he really said “i’ll cook, clean, take care of you, love you unconditionally, and worship the group you walk on even if i get none of that in return.” this man looks at Rue like nothing else exists in the world. “i forget to look at other things, when you’re around.” god he is so gentle and considerate and sweet and respectful. when he said he’d retire to service her full-time, i ripped my pillow in half with my teeth. eli would get that vacuum seal gorilla grip through the bars from me to say the least.
Rue is me and i am her. she’s so layered and real. the way she basically said “hmm i like having him around. he’s cool and makes me feel good. guess i’ll keep him” what a QUEEN! i was so afraid that this story would just be her getting in the way of herself when it came to being with eli officially, but i’m so glad their relationship went about the way it did. i hope they sell Eli’s on amazon ...more

ok so this was not good but it was feel good. in other words it was an overly long epilogue. all this story consists of is feel good moments an3.5 ⭐️
ok so this was not good but it was feel good. in other words it was an overly long epilogue. all this story consists of is feel good moments and a HEA. i don’t regret reading it and i’m happy it all ended the way it did but there was just too much filler writing for me to give this a higher rating.
i love these characters and that’s about it. i was waiting for something huge to happen in this book but nothing did. this whole duet could’ve easily been a stand-alone if half of the filler writing was cut out. ngl it was fun and cute just reading about the characters living, laughing, and loving but it quickly got repetitive and dare i say boring.
i don’t regret reading this story and connecting to it but if you don’t end up reading it, you ain’t missing out on much. but if you’re in the mood to read something quick and easy then go for it.

i was so excited for this to be a full 5 star read, make it my entire personality, and talk about it non stop for at least 2 weeks until i read that last fucking chapter. when i tell you i physically recoiled. i wanted to cut my heart out, one artery at a time, throw it on a sizzling hot cast iron skillet, and burn it to chards… finishing it, i sat there thinking of ways to run into the wall i was staring at for 10 minutes straight. because wtf did i just read?! ...more
this was a whole bunch of nothing until it was something. that something given in the last 20 pages. that being said, i do have hopes for the rest of this was a whole bunch of nothing until it was something. that something given in the last 20 pages. that being said, i do have hopes for the rest of the series to come, so i shall be anticipating the sequel.
to put it into perspective: first 30% was interesting, next 50% was meh, last 20% was predictable but intriguing nonetheless. reading battle and war strategy can get kinda boring ngl. the world building was well written, but i wasn’t really paying much attention. the plot was barely moving until we got some twists and turns. i also feel like this book follows the norm for a lot of romantic fantasy books out there, hence the predictably, and my utter boredom.
Bjorn: i feel his masculine energy and i’m eager to see his actions to unfold in the next book.
Freya: her female fucking rage scenes were the best, and attractive if i made add. i anticipate seeing that the most in the next book....more

where do i even begin... this was incredible. i literally have zero negative criticisms. it's the best thing ive ever read, and now i fear nothing will ever live up to it. the writing, the story, the characters, and everything else was 10/10 perfect. the pacing of the story, perfect. the unconditional love that was written was something of its own. no two beings belong to one another in any universe the way draco and hermione do in manacled....more

this book was haunting, eerie, suspenseful, and a little bit romantic. cañas perfectly blends all these things in a historical context. not only do i get a good story but also a fictional plot weaved into history. aka the ghost representing Mexican colonialism.
there was something really poetic when her “fake” boyfriend held her asshole boss’ head underwater after he pushed her off the yacht as a “prank.” it’there was something really poetic when her “fake” boyfriend held her asshole boss’ head underwater after he pushed her off the yacht as a “prank.” it’s the little things ✨
i gotta start off my saying that the mouth on Beau mf Eaton needs to be studied. the bluntness of this man had me doing backflips.
one of my favorite i gotta start off my saying that the mouth on Beau mf Eaton needs to be studied. the bluntness of this man had me doing backflips.
one of my favorite things about this book was the well rounded characters. so layered and nuanced and real and raw. the way i’d move mountains for Bailey is insane. i love her to pieces. my self respect left my body when they woke up together at the lake. i obliterated when he rubbed the back of her calves on that motorcycle. the protectiveness Beau shows Bailey makes me ache because WHY CANT MEN BE LIKE THIS IN REAL LIFE?! IT GETS ME SO HEATED!!
The patience Beau gives Bailey made me cry happy tears. the 24/7 supportiveness and reassurance that he’s always gonna be there even when times are tough made me wanna drink bleach. im so glad they both got everything they were looking for. if u look closely at the end of the book you can see them stepping over my dead body...more
