Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️/5

Format: ebook

The stepbrother trope will never not be elite, and this is just another example of that. I loved Lane and Noah. At first I was worried I wouldn’t connect with either of them, but they slowly wormed their way into my heart. 

The hurt/comfort aspects of this book were just top-tier. The way Noah looked after Lane was the more adorable thing. His protectiveness, his possessiveness, his obsession… Just everything was perfection. And I loved the very slow progression of their relationship. The fact that they didn’t even kiss until 70% in (not counting the first one) just made it even better when they finally did. I was actually feral for them by that point.

The spice in this book was amazing. Dirty, filthy, debauched. Absolutely perfect. And I love the way they were caught by literally everyone because they didn’t know how to keep their hands off each other. But especially the way Miah and their mom caught them; obsessed with it.

This book was downright addicting. I’ve been so busy over the past few days and all I’ve wanted to do was sit down and just devour every page. I woke up at 4 in the morning to pee and was just like, hey why don’t I just read a chapter or two? Then *cue sunrise*.

Rebecca Rathe’s writing just absolutely does it for me. Even when there are tropes I despise, she somehow makes me love the story and characters anyway. I am so sat for the rest of this series.
