this is rachel’s debut book and it was so cute! lots of cozy small town vibes, my favorite. 🥰

i really enjoyed ivy’s tarot reading considering i have my own tarot and oracle cards! i do readings on my friends and i loved seeing that in this book.

holland (not tom 🤪) was such an amazing mmc. he has a hard past, and so does ivy. they’re a match made in heaven!

slate stole the show for me. i adore frenchies and he sounded so adorable in this book. 🥹

p.s. i did ugly cry. 😀

stephanie archer never misses!! i am screaming!! rory is the goofiest guy who’s been trying to get at hazel since they were in high school together. hazel hasn’t had the best luck with relationships and has sworn off dating hockey players. this was the cutest book — i’m so in love with how patient and understanding rory is.

there was so much tension in this book after everything that happened with eden and her brutes. i feel like all of the characters showed a lot of growth, and i loved the addition of the new characters! the introduction of the newbies were so gradual that it didn’t feel like random info dump, so it made it super easy to follow the story!

the cliffy at the end had me flipping my kindle

pages back and forth to make sure i wasn’t missing another chapter. 😂 i cannot wait for book 3! 🥹

if you have not read the first book, ensnared, PLEAAASE do so! it was rebecca’s debut novel and it was so well done that i still talk about it to this day! entangled was an amazing second book in this series and im so excited for everyone to continue reading about eden and her bristlebrook brutes. 🫶🏻
