This was recommended after a social media post that looked interesting. I had just read another RH/WC mafia based one that I loved to death and thought that this looking interesting but, as someone that left HS almost 30 years ago I wasn't sure I'd like it. But the line I read had my move it right to the top of my TBR and get into it and fuck I'm glad I did.

My favorite trope, a sunshine character. The absolute sunshineist sunshine character is Vincent. I loved him but now I love all of them. The town is so... 1990s? Like I remember how it was when being a non-straight kid felt at that time, it triggered some pretty nasty feelings as I read it and while maybe cliche I fell into it.

Sometimes I want to just be able to hate a bunch of ignorant fuckheads and man this book gives me that and some nice smutty scenes and a little bit of character development.

I really enjoyed this, I immediately bought the second.
