I feel like a 3.5 is very apt for this novella. I can't quite give it a 4 because I feel like the story progression was choppy and the ending was extremely abrupt. It also didn't have a lot of sex in it, which was one of my favorite parts of Unrivaled. However, there was a lot of stuff I truly enjoyed. Grady and Max were entertaining as always. I also loved the whole plotline of both of them wanting to propose. Very cute. I would definitely recommend reading this if you've already read Unrivaled. You shouldn't read this as a standalone though.
