Holy. Wow. This book...
I honestly don't know how Tijan does it, knocking book after book out of the park. Bad boy Brody was truly a beautiful story. I love the gentle way in which she writes, it's magical, truly.
I loved Brody. I fell for him at the very first moment.
Morgan was interesting, I don't think there's been a character written like her.
Their relationship was beautiful, even in the hard moments.
I loved the drama the story had, as well as the little twists and turns.
This is everything I wanted in a book and more, you need to read this, now!

This was a re-read for me. It’s been a long time between drinks and I forgot aspects of this book.
The story is great. It’s hot, it’s steamy, it’s great.
The editing, and the writing, are not. There are a TON of info dumps and at times the slips into second person, while can be great, aren’t here. The writing is a little awkward and stilted and the reasoning behind the “tension” here doesn’t really work for me.
Still, I enjoyed it, if for no other reason than it’s one of the few threesomes I’ve read done relatively well.

I wanted to love this book. As it was I enjoyed it quite a lot, but the version I read had a lot of issues.
First things first, I LOVED the premise of this book. Natalia was great and Luke was hot. They definitely worked as a couple.
The story though needs some work. It was slow. Then when we finally got there it finished in a rush. There were, what I consider quite important, details left out. Details about Luke and why he did what he did. Where was that the whole time? Plus, he’s described as a manwhore but we see none of that. In fact, he seems the opposite.
Also, why didn’t we see issues resolved at the end? It was such a major reason for what happened, but yet it’s brushed over with “we talked it over”. I WANT to see that! Don’t put me through what I went through then don’t show my why I had to go through it!
Then there’s timeline issues. Time jumps so quickly without anything showing the passing. Characters are introduced (Alex) who I had no idea where he came from. And when did CJ and Aliza get together?
There’s also continuity issues. Luke’s hair colour changes, as well as other details.
I received this ARC REALLY early, way over a month and a half before release. I really think the author should’ve waited, edited and edited again, before sending this out. These issues really did negatively impact my reading experience.
Having said that, I did like and enjoy this book and hope the kinks are worked out before release.

I absolutely love this series! I’m a great lover of YA and this is mature YA at its best.
I love the Society, and family, that has been built here.
The Kings are hot, but also kind of sweet and loving, which is a great juxtaposition.
Madison is sassy and Tate is a great balance for her.
What I loved most about this book is that we’re finally getting answers, as well as handy recaps, although I would recommend RE-reading the first books as well.
One thing that did bother me was up until about 60% through the editing was fine. A few inconsistencies but I could overlook them. Then the wheels started to fall off. I have had an issue with the editing in Amo’s previous book (I DNFed at 40%) and hope this is rectified before release.
Another thing that bothered me were some of the language choices. “dawg” and “throwing up duces” to me just didn’t fit, it seemed a bit try-hardish, as did the constant song references. They were great but I don’t think that many need to be included, shades of Drive here but nowhere near as meaningful or poignant.
Still, i loved this book and I’m glad it ended the way it did, even if there were less twists and turns that I was expecting.

I’m not really sure what to think about this book. I have wanted to read it for months and was absolutely stoked to receive an ARC but this book was hard work.
Usually I fly through a book quickly. This one, it was tough.
That said, I did enjoy it, and I await the following book(s). I think what bothered me was that basically right from the start we know who Eliana is. That’s not a surprise. But it takes SO long for things to start happening. At about 30% dots start connecting, then they stop. We get more about 55%, then it stops again. Finally at the end we get even more but it’s the end. The intervening sections are hard work to get through. Also, I felt not enough explanation was given about Eliana’s time. What happened after Rielle fell? Why is it bad? Even as simple as who is who?
Still, I did enjoy this book at points. Rielle was an intriguing character, who you thought you’d hate, but don’t. Eliana is a little more complex. One thing though is I absolutely HATE how she uses sex.
Simon is interesting, Remy is sweet, and Navi was neither here nor there.
I did think Zahara’s appearance was random, even if a great addition.
I would like to see more humour, the parts where it was were fantastic, and more explanations. I get we’re supposed to be left in the dark to an extent, but if it’s to the point where we check out, I don’t think is intended.
Still, a decent book if you can stick with it, and am awaiting the next books!

I loved this book. I think we're all used to this sort of storyline but I don't think I've ever read one done so well.
The pain and anguish Lawson and Greer went through was heartbreaking but was exactly what was needed, as strange as that sounds.
Also, and this might sound weird, but Ahren does a really good job of writing characters that you hate but also love.
Lawson is annoying, he's a sleaze and a total arse, but you still love him. It's so frustrating! But it also puts you exactly into Greer's shoes.
I loved Greer, she's fantastic! Her friends and family are pretty great too.
I really enjoyed this book and I think you will too!

I liked this book. It was hot, and seriously sexy, and Hot. I liked the storyline, it was well done.
However, there were times I seriously wanted to slap both Sadie and Ashton. I think sometimes they went a little too far in their character extremes.
Also, the sex was borderline degrading for me. Ashton’s attitudes made me uncomfortable and they didn’t sit well with me. I also felt they were a little out of the blue. This is my first book by this author so it may be a theme of hers, but I still feel it didn’t fit the theme and feel of the book.
As I said, I did like the book. It’s a solid read and would recommend it.

Let me start off and say I loved this book. It was headed to be a favourite of mine. Ali was great and Jay was everything.
Now here’s the but. I couldn’t get behind the ending. I know the author had her reasons and I get it, but I HATED that ending. It kind of ruined the whole book for me, actually it did. If I had known that was going to happen I wouldn’t have picked up this book and I hate that it’s ruined the book for me, because like I said, Jay is everything.
Still if you like the unexpected then this is the book for you, I just wish it was for me.

I really enjoyed this book! I love May and Alec, they’re great!
I was worried about May’s bisexuality, especially given her feelings for Lark but it turned out to be a non issue, even if I would like to see more development of her feelings.
I also like how Sarina tackled her alcoholism. It was written really well and explained really well but wasn’t intrusive.
Alec was awesome! I loved him. He was sweet, and sassy, and his jokes are incredible. Incredibly bad, but a great break in this book.
Solid book you won’t be disappointed with.

This was an enjoyable read for me. Not particularly memorable but a solid book.
Riann for me, rubbed me the wrong way. I wasn’t particularly taken with her character, especially at the end.
Pierce was a breath of fresh air. I loved the way he came across initially and how he developed as the book wore on.
At times I felt the Book had a tendency to info dump, and there was definitely a whole lot of passive voice, which usually I don’t mind, but here it stood out a fair bit for me.
If you like Helena’s writing style and humour, you’ll like this book. If you’re looking for a book to zone out in, this is for you. It’s a solid read.
