This was so much better than Twisted Games it's almost unreal- while I liked Ava slightly more than Bridget I absolutely loved Rhys, thought he was a much more palatable love interest and that his thinking made much more sense, really enjoyed that he was a LOT softer than Alex, good to see him admit his mistakes. I was really sold on their dynamic.

Plot wasn't as nonsensical as the last book and I loved the little connections with the previous and I'm assuming later books.

Character dynamics outside of the main one where really good too, I especially thought any Andreas scene was hilarious and hope for more comedy scenes later.

When I connected that Christian was THAT Christian and Rhys's employer I started kicking my feet, Ana Huang level of a mastermind.
