Archer High #3
Jagger
I just want to spend my millions without a care in the world, so when she comes along with her ocean blue eyes and devilish smile, I try not to pay attention. After all, why would I? No other girl has kept my attention for longer than a night, so I assumed she wouldn't be any different.
I was wrong.
But if she thinks I'm going to become Mr. Romantic, she's in for a big surprise. Because now she has my full attention, and I intend to make her mine whether she likes it or not. Spending my final year in Archer Bay is turning out to be tougher than I thought. My best friend is madly in love and I'm the third wheel on their bicycle of romance. Or lust. Not only that, but the biggest asshole I've ever met—a title not gained lightly, is paying me too much attention. Most girls would love to have Jagger Knox watching their every move, but I'm not most girls. I want to haul ass out of this place and move to Europe, but I've got a feeling Jagger isn't going to make it easy for me.
But I can handle him; I've handled much worse.
So bring it on.

Jagger by Linzvonc
Narrated in duet by Marie Hawkins and William Macleod
I finished this book in one sitting, and then I went on to listen to it again. Before going into this story, please check those trigger warnings. This is a DARK, PITCH BLACK romance. Is there romance in this story? Yes, but not for most of it. Jagger is a complex character who doesn’t truly believe in love because he has never truly felt it from anyone in his life. When his cousin, Aphrodite, comes to stay with him, she brings along her best friend, Molly. Molly and Jagger stay behind when Aphrodite is forced to hide out due to a stalker threatening her life. Things become contentious between Jagger and Molly quickly. When Molly is kicked out of Jagger’s house, she forgets her phone, so Jagger decides to go through her phone, inviting someone from Molly’s past to come to town. When this stranger comes to town, Jagger realizes he’s made a mistake, but the only way for him to fix things is to break Molly even more and become the villain in her story.
This story had me pulled in, desperately wanting to know what was going to happen next and wanting to throw things at Jagger if I could. I was angry, sad, happy, and everything in between while listening to this story unravel. I honestly didn’t know if this book would end with a hea or not. Linzvonc was a new-to-me author this year, but I have fallen in love with the characters and stories that she writes, and they have become some of my favorite books this year, with Jagger being one of my favorites. This story focuses on overcoming difficult situations and traumas. It shows how it’s okay to be broken, but that you have to get back up again. And how forgiveness can be a powerful tool.
Marie Hawkins and William Macleod really killed it as Molly and Jagger. The story and the narration were both so powerful and gripping that I just had to go and listen to it all over again once I finished it the first time. Marie really captured the vulnerability and brokenness of Molly’s character, and William played Jagger as a bully so perfectly.
If you love dark romance and have no triggers, I recommend adding this to your list ASAP. But start with Book 1 in the Archer High Series, Wolfe.

Book 3 in the Archer High series: Jagger and Molly. This is an enemies to lovers, SA survivor, childhood trauma, found family, morally grey MMC, strong FMC, FMC on the run from her past, secrets and “betrayal”, touch her and d!e, “the only one who can hurt her is me”, rich boy x poor girl, dark bully romance.
This is book 3 in the series and even though they are technically interconnected standalones I would recommend reading the previous two to understand the character relationships and backstories better.
Molly has gone through so much. She’s on the run from her abuser from her past, and then enter Jagger. He finds pleasure in tormenting her because it’s easier for him than coming to a realization that he has feelings for her. When her last comes to take her Jagger does what he must to get her back, even if it means potentially losing everything.
This was definitely a very dark and intense read with a lot of mature content even though it’s in a high school setting.
The voice actors did an amazing job! It was in complete duet narration and the did an excellent job conveying the raw emotions in this audiobook.

Jagger (Book 3 in the Archer High series) is a dark, enemies-to-lovers romance with a he falls hard storyline that completely pulled me in. The tension between the main characters is delicious, paired with suspense and a few well-placed twists that had me devouring the story. Although this is the only book I’ve listened to in the series so far, I didn’t feel lost at all—yet it definitely made me want to go back and experience the first two books. I truly enjoyed the author’s writing style and the story as a whole.
The narration elevated the audiobook even further. Marie Hawkins is one of my favorite narrators—she has a way of drawing you in so completely that you forget you’re listening and feel fully immersed in the story. William MacLeod did an excellent job portraying Jagger, making him sound like a complete jerk while still allowing the listener to understand his insecurities and root for his redemption. Together, they were the perfect choices for this audiobook.
Overall, I highly recommend this one.
Story: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5)

Linz has done it again! Holy moly! Jagger is everything and more. I instantly loved Wolfe and when Kaden came around, I fell for him too. But Jagger?! Instantly bumped to the top of my list. This man has some serious issues and walls as thick as thieves and so much insecurity it's not even funny. But when Molly comes into his life, he starts feelings things he's never felt before. In one swift, pretty shady move, he changed the entire trajectory of what his life could have been...
I absolutely loved how this man fell for Molly, even through all the hard outer shell, tough guy persona. How he was drawn to her, and her to him, was amazing. I hated everything that Molly had to endure, mostly because of Jagger, too. My heart felt like it was ripped from me chest. But when Jagger came back to say his peace and walk away, my heart melted into a huge puddle!
My gosh, this series was so dang good and I loved it so much!
Jagger, if Molly is ever off the market, I know someone...lol

The beginning of this one piqued my interest right away. The tension between Jagger and Molly was very entertaining and sort of like a powder keg as you awaited the inevitable explosion. And the intrigue over Lawson Veng made things even more interesting and intense.
Chapter 18 threw me for a total loop, and the intensity and suspense had me turning pages faster and faster.
Things definitely took some turns I wasn't expecting, but it was such an engaging and entertaining story with well-written and vivid characters.
I thoroughly enjoyed this one and can't wait to read more of this series.

Love the archer boy series this book is quite dark and quite rushed so please read trigger warning before.

Jagger is the kind of anti-hero who crawls under your skin in the best possible way. He's dark, broken, magnetic, & watching him unravel in his own messy, twisted way is impossible to look away from. The heroine matches him perfectly strong, resilient & beautifully human.
Their dynamic is electric, full of tension & emotion that kept me hooked the entire time.
The narration is phenomenal. The voice actors captured every bit of heat, vulnerability & grit in the story.
If you love dark romance with high stakes, gritty atmosphere, & characters who stay with you long after the final chapter, this audiobook is an absolute must-listen. I'm already itching for the next Archer High installment!
Highly recommended, Linzvonc delivers again!

Jagger is the third installment of the Archer High series by Linzvonc. This book is my favourite of this series so far!
It’s filled with brilliant characters, a fantastic narrative and some wickedly good twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seats! I was hooked from the beginning…
Molly, our well crafted, slightly damaged FMC, is a feisty and deeply emotional character with fantastic character development and a unique narrative. Our MMC is Jagger, he is on all accounts a total pr!ck. But his character development shows a different side to his rich playboy exterior. A brilliant and compelling character that I absolutely adore!
The magnetic attraction between our MCs is palpable and compelling. A beautifully weaved narrative and an absolutely amazing storyline.
Our voice actors gave these characters, as well as the supporting cast, a truly wonderful portrayal. An incredible and truly outstanding performance.
Marie Hawkins, performance as Molly, is phenomenal. A unique piece of work that elevates this beautiful character to another level. Giving her a voice and revealing her complex personality. A remarkable performance. All the supporting characters were equally, beautifully portrayed! Marie is a class act!
William Macleod, performed Jagger, and he brought him and his complexities into beautiful and unique focus. Exposing his vulnerability and depth of character. I adore Jagger.
An outstanding performance from both amazingly talented artists! Producing an incredible audio experience!
I loved everything about this book! And am eager for the next in the series! Pure brilliance…

Quotes:
"don't you dare kiss me, I whisper, trembling. I dont want him to be nice to me- not him. He strokes my hair softly and leans down, his tongue lapping at the blood on my lower lip."
"I get to fuck Molly, out of my system and out of my heart because, after this, she'll truly despise me. And I need her to."
“You can take my life, do what you want with it.
Because I mean this, Molly, I don't want to live without you.”
“I knew the girl from my nightmares would have issues, but this was beyond anything I could have imagined.”
My body thrums with rage at the effect her stupid baby blues have on me, and I want to physically throw her out of my yard. But there's no need—she's already taking her illegally hot body away from me, and thank fuck.

Angst, Obsession, and Emotional Damage
This Is Not a Soft Love Story
Welcome to Archer High — Bring Tissues
🎧Audiobook Review ALC
Jagger by Linz Von C
Narrated by Marie Hawkins & William Macleod
Archer High #3
5/5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
3.5/5🌶️��️🌶️
10/10🎙️🎧🫦
This audiobook hurt so good.
Jagger is dark, emotionally messy, and completely consuming. Jagger Knox is the definition of a morally gray anti-hero — cold, guarded, and emotionally unavailable in a way that feels intentional and painful. Molly is quiet strength, trauma-scarred but unbreakable, and their connection is volatile, intense, and impossible to ignore.
He Was Cold. She Was Broken. I Was Done For.
Listening to this story instead of reading it made everything hit harder. Every sharp word, every moment of restraint snapping, every emotionally loaded silence — And the audio amplifies it all.
🎙️ But Listennnn!
The dual narration is a standout for me!
Marie Hawkins as Molly’s voice captures vulnerability without ever sounding weak — you feel her survival instincts.
While William Macleod as Jagger’s narration is controlled, rough, and emotionally distant in a way that perfectly matches his character, making him swoon worthy and memorable!
Together, they bring the tension, the angst, and the darkness to life. This is the kind of audiobook that makes you stop what you’re doing just to listen.
🖤 Why It Works
• Intense emotional push-and-pull
• Dark romance that doesn’t soften the trauma
• Obsessive, protective MMC energy
• Slow burn with explosive moments
• Deep emotional payoff
A fast paced audiobook with a storyline that’ll give you pause.
Listening to This Was a Mistake (But I’d Do It Again)!

It’s An Audiobook That Demands Your Full Attention!
⚠️ Trigger Warnings
Please check before listening~*~
* Emotional abuse
* Trauma (past & present)
* Mental health struggles
* Toxic dynamics
* Explicit sexual content
* Substance use themes
🖤 Final Thoughts 💭 ✍︎
Jagger isn’t sweet or gentle — it’s raw, heavy, and emotionally demanding. But if you love dark romance that makes your chest ache and your heart race, then this audiobook delivers in every way.
My least favorite part is how it seems to end abruptly.
🎧 Highly recommended in audio.

This book grabbed me immediately and refused to let go!
Jagger is the kind of character whose decisions make your chest tighten. Not because you agree with him, but because you understand the weight of what he is carrying and how badly he handles it. His choices shook me, and the consequences lingered in a way that made it impossible to detach. I was frustrated with him, still rooting for him, and completely invested all at once.
Molly is not written to be saved. Which I LOVED! She moves through pain, growth, anger, regret, and self discovery in a way that feels honest. Her story does not rush toward comfort. You experience every stage with her. The hard moments. The strength it takes to keep going. The slow transformation that actually feels earned.
Their connection keeps pulling them back into the same space again and again. Not in an obvious way. Not in a neat or expected way. It feels natural and inevitable, like two people whose paths keep colliding no matter how much they fight it. Every interaction matters. Every choice leaves a mark.
The audiobook elevates everything. Marie Hawkins and William MacLeod do not simply voice characters. They embody them. You hear restraint. You hear regret. You hear moments where everything almost breaks 😭
I listened while juggling work and kids, and still finished it in one day. A four hour listen that flew by. Looking back, I wish I had saved it for a quiet weekend just to sit with all of the intensity without distractions.
I recommend experiencing it fully by listening while reading if you can. The performances were exceptional, and this story surprised me, stayed with me, and made me feel everything!

With the way Jagger and Molly were teased in Kaden I couldn't wait for their story. I will admit it turned out to be totally different than I was expecting. Yes, they are enemies-to-lovers but there is much more to it than that. This is a slow burn compared to the previous books in the series and I was here for it!
Jagger and Molly can barely stand each other and anytime they are in the vicinity of each other arguing ensues which was their way of hiding the attraction they have for each other because believe me...it is there! Jagger is such a bully and quite honestly he had me not liking him at first. When he realizes the big huge mistake he makes by inviting Molly's past to her doorstep his mission becomes to save her.
Molly deserves so much better than the hand she has been dealt in life. When we get a look at what her past has been I just wanted to hug that poor girl. She perseveres and holds her head high every day until the person she was hoping to never see again shows up. From that moment on it becomes a matter of survival and just when she thinks her savior shows up in the form of Jagger, that hope is crushed.
Linzvonc does a phenomenal job of keeping the tension strong with these two. They are both stubborn, Jagger especially. So many times that man has the opportunity to speak up and he keeps things to himself. When truths are finally revealed I was yelling "finally" because these two definitely take their sweet time acknowledging the feelings that have been just below the surface the entire time.

Marie Hawkins and William Macleod were so good as Molly and Jagger. I always enjoy listening to both of them whenever I can. Narrating seems to come very natural to them and the emotional scenes in this one....they nailed them!
Jagger and Molly can barely stand each other and anytime they are in the vicinity of each other arguing ensues which was their way of hiding the attraction they have for each other because believe me...it is there! Jagger is such a bully and quite honestly he had me not liking him at first. When he realizes the big huge mistake he makes by inviting Molly's past to her doorstep his mission becomes to save her.
Molly deserves so much better than the hand she has been dealt in life. When we get a look at what her past has been I just wanted to hug that poor girl. She perseveres and holds her head high every day until the person she was hoping to never see again shows up. From that moment on it becomes a matter of survival and just when she thinks her savior shows up in the form of Jagger, that hope is crushed.
Linzvonc does a phenomenal job of keeping the tension strong with these two. They are both stubborn, Jagger especially. So many times that man has the opportunity to speak up and he keeps things to himself. When truths are finally revealed I was yelling "finally" because these two definitely take their sweet time acknowledging the feelings that have been just below the surface the entire time.

OK so where to start…?
I read book one and two because I saw this author was promoting book number three. And I wanted to read book number three in order to do that. I had to read book one and two. I read all three books within 24 hours. And first I wasn’t sure if I liked the style of writing but the more I read the more I like it. I noticed I don’t skim over the boring parts because there aren’t really any…by that I mean when the author is describing scenery or telling you what the room looks like I don’t really care for that personally. I like dialogue and I like action. I’ve already made up in my mind what the room Looks like whether you tell me what it looks like or not will not change what my brain has decided that room looks like. And this other doesn’t do that it’s all action and it’s all dialogue which I ended up, loving. Book one I loved Wolf at the end and I love him in this book too. I think Jagger might be myfavorite out of the three books so far if not the favorite then tied with Wolfe AFTER his character development. And it really twists up your brain you agree with jaggers actions. Poor Molly her life sucks/ed she’s def my fav female out of all the books she wasn’t about to let anyone use her as a doormat if she had a choice in the matter. And sometimes she didn’t 🤷🏼♀️
And I wouldn’t mind having a conversation in the comments if anyone wants to let me know whether they agree with what he did or not. Only critique is I do wish we got a little bit more after the last chapter about what happened next between them but hopefully there’s a fourth book where jagger and Molly make an appearance. Fingers crossed it’s Colton’s book 🤞🏻

I absolutely devoured this book, and it destroyed me in the best, most agonizing way. When Jagger did what he had to do, I didn’t just feel Molly break, I felt myself cracking right alongside her. And the worst part? I could feel every ounce of Jagger’s pain, that raw, agonizing anguish that lived under his skin long after the moment had passed. Every time she brought it up, the way he recoiled… the disgust he carried for himself was almost suffocating. It hurt. God, it hurt.
This story is tragic, but it’s also disturbingly beautiful. Molly and Jagger aren’t two halves of a perfect whole. They’re jagged shards, sharp edges and shattered pieces trying to make something resembling love out of their wreckage. They’re a puzzle that should never fit… and yet they do. Not cleanly. Not gently. But in a way that feels inevitable, like gravity pulling two broken stars into collision.
Their love isn’t soft or sweet. It’s ugly, raw, painful, and dark as hell. But that’s exactly what makes it mesmerizing. They are beautifully broken, bound together by wounds that should’ve kept them apart but instead stitched them closer. It’s twisted, it’s haunting, and I loved every unhinged second of it.
And the audiobook? Next level. Marie Hawkins took the visceral emotion and dragged it straight out of the pages and into my chest. And William MacLeod’s portrayal of Jagger… I could feel his torment, his self loathing, his barely contained desperation. They didn’t just narrate the story, they breathed life into it, sent it spiraling through my headphones and straight into my soul.

This story was wild! I loved that it ties in the previous story as I wondered about those characters. Jagger is a cold ruthless MMC. He does what he wants, when he wants and doesn’t care what others think. Molly is a lost soul hiding her story from the world until she’s forced to deal with it when Jagger does what he thought was a “joke.” Molly lives a hard life and no one has any idea. She does a great job at hiding it until she can’t. When Jagger starts to feel things that make him uncomfortable he resorts to his typical self. The turmoil he didn’t even realize he started ended up being the biggest demise of him too. So much happens throughout this story that may be triggering so please read your tws. This story was great! I loved seeing Molly pull herself out of her situation and thrive the best she could. Jagger sat with his guilt for a while and truly owned up to it when the time came. Molly getting her power back was beautiful. Everything these two faced in this story were written well for the audience to feel all the emotions throughout their journey. I oddly enough was rooting for these two! This story also gave us some insight into Colton whose story is next to come out on audio. I have A feeling his story is going to be a wild ride.
This was my first time hearing both narrators and I think Their voices were casted perfectly. Marie Hawkins did a phenomenal job showing all the raw emotions of Molly throughout the story. William Macleod was a great cast for jagger as well. He brought him to life perfectly. I’m interested in more stories with these two.

"don't you dare kiss me, I whisper, trembling. I dont want him to be nice to me- not him. He strokes my hair softly and leans down, his tongue lapping at the blood on my lower lip."
This is the third book in the archer high series, telling us the story about Molly and jagger, and what a fucking story it was, boy oh boy. This little fucker had me on my knees! I was gripped from the start not wanting to put this heartbreaking story down, I was glued to the pages, on the edge of my seat! It a wild rollercoaster ride that has twists and turns you don't see coming.
"I get to fuck Molly, out of my system and out of my heart because, after this, she'll truly despise me. And I need her to."
There is parts that utterly wrecked and destroyed me, breaking my heart into millions off pieces! But I was here for it all, I love it! The characters, storyline, plot where wonderfully written. It's dark and twisted and filled with so much action, drama, pain, romance, brokenness , love and so much more. Boy they sure do go through alot and I mean alot. I fell In love with jagger even know he's a pain in the arse sometimes. I adore Molly. They two became my favourite from the series, I still do love the others. Linz always brings us to the best worlds with writing. I can't wait to read coltons story! Highly recommend.
" You can take my life, do what you want with it. Because I mean this, Molly, I don't want to live without you " 😭

Jagger - Archer High Book 3 - Obsessed just completely obsessed ( that’s exactly what I am with what is one of the best series I’ve read in such a long time . Jagger and Molly well let’s just say I was not prepared for their journey ( it really was like being on the wildest ride at the amusement park and not knowing which was was up and which way was down . Jagger . What’s not to love about a morally grey anti hero . A billionaire model - playboy . A compete A Hole and all around playboy . And then we have our heroine Molly with a past full of secrets and tragedy ( but she’s also so strong and feisty and a downright bad@ss . Once jagger sets his sights on her all all bets are off because nothing is going to stop him from making her his !!!! The mystery, the intrigue, the suspense, the dark , raw and gritty moments, the twists and turns , the insane chemistry, the love , the passion, the secrets, the tragedy, the obstacles, the obsession, the phenomenal world building . I really do feel like I was just taken on the ride or my life . Speechless, yelling outta frustration, heart beating so fast and then breaking the next , smiling, crying and rooting so freaking hard. . Those are only a few emotions I felt while reading Jagger ;

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ (4.5/5)
Jagger had me hooked from the start, with its dark, twisted tale of broken people navigating a world of drugs, sexual assault, and shattered boundaries. Jagger is an awful human with no limits, yet his intense, toxic relationship with Molly was impossible to look away from. 😍
Jagger is the epitome of a tortured soul—haunted by a painful past and teetering on the edge of self-destruction. Linzvonic’s portrayal of his internal struggles is raw and real, especially when he’s staring at the ocean, lost in his own darkness. 🌊
Molly, with her sweet stubbornness, is the perfect contrast to Jagger’s darkness. She stands up to him, even when he’s unreachable. Their chemistry is electric, and their slow-burning tension kept me on edge. 😳
Despite the grim themes, there’s a glimmer of hope as Jagger slowly lets Molly in, realizing he might deserve happiness after all. The emotional depth is intense, making this a gripping read that stays with you long after the final page. ❤️
Jagger is a beautifully written, dark love story for those who can handle a romance filled with broken characters and deep emotional scars. Highly recommend! 😊. One of these books you are disgusted with the MMC and continue to lose faith in redemption.......

Jagger
Archer High 4
by Linzvonc
Narrated by William MacLeod, Marie Hawkins
Linzvonc is so versatile in her writing style, from contemporary, to humor, to dark every book is amazing. This is the third in Archer High, her dark romance series and it is just that! Jagger's eye has been caught. Molly is finishing her high school career at Archer High, and she is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel to moving to Europe. Her life has not been easy, and she just wants out. She doesn't give Jagger the time of day, and this will not do. So he texts a name from her past, and now the darkness and danger comes her to life. This is intricate and each scene while sometimes cringe worthy brings an important piece to this story. It shows sides to the characters I know I didn't see coming and each one is a surprise. It's dark and dangerous, and hopeful and passionate. Well balanced and holding me hostage for hours, this was a fantastic listen.
William MacLeod and Marie Hawkins bring this nugget to life. MacLoed is so good, one of my favorites and each voice he brings to the story matches the personalities perfectly. Hawkins is emotionally driven, strong beyond belief and very forgiving as Molly. I enjoyed these two and their performance.

Jagger is book 3 in the Archer High series and this one is a lot darker than the others.
I was on the edge of my seat for this book I listened to it in one day and couldn’t stop listening I just had to know what was next and where it was going.
Linzvonc is such a fantastic writer and the way you go on such a journey with the characters we start with enemies to lovers banter to a shocking twist of what was a silly prank to dealing with trauma and the emotional impact that has on both characters.
Marie Hawkins voices Molly and I’m so glad she did because she was outstanding the way she delivers the sarcasm with the banter and then really makes you feel Mollys pain and anger in this emotional scenes? Truly amazing!!
William Macleod voices Jagger and this is my first audio with him and I really enjoyed his performance I felt so connected to Jagger and the emotion’s turmoil he goes through with what happens and I can’t wait to listen to more of his audio his performance was so so good!! Jagger goes on a big character development in this book and William showcases that through his performance!!
I can’t wait to dive into Colton’s story next!!
December 12, 2025
Jagger is dark, intense, and emotionally charged in the way Linzvonc does best. This story leans hard into obsession, control, and vulnerability, delivering a romance that is messy, addictive, and impossible to look away from.
Jagger is privileged, arrogant, and used to getting exactly what he wants. What he is not prepared for is a girl who does not care about his money, his status, or his charm. From their first interaction, the tension crackles. Their connection is built on push and pull, power struggles, and a constant battle between desire and self preservation.
What makes this book work is the emotional depth beneath the toxicity. Jagger is not just a cocky rich boy. He is deeply insecure, terrified of abandonment, and emotionally reckless. Instead of communicating, he lashes out, trying to maintain control when he feels himself slipping. The female lead refuses to be owned, refuses to be silenced, and refuses to lose herself for love, which makes every interaction between them feel raw and volatile.

Jagger by Linzvonc is a dark enemies to lovers romance. Please check your trigger warnings before proceeding! This story is certainly not for the faint of heart. Every detail was intense, grueling, heartbreaking, and highly emotional. Jagger and Molly’s courtship is a chaotic mess that will have you questioning whether these two will find true happiness. Despite all the heavy trauma, I could see the beauty behind forgiveness for those less deserving. I also saw the beauty in being able to sit in one’s own feelings to learn acceptance of things one can’t change and to understand how unfiltered honesty can be healing. Narrators Marie Hawkins and William Macleod gave a performance worth remembering! Marie portrayed Molly’s character with justice and executed every emotional moment with grace and authenticity. William showed a natural talent being able to balance having no emotion vs all consuming emotion. I look forward to more performances by this duo! Thank you Blue Nose Audio and Linzvonc for this riveting ALC opportunity!

Heed the trigger warnings! This is the third book of the series and it is about Jagger and Molly. Jagger is an unfeeling jerk who bullies Molly because he feels something for her and wants to try to get it out of his system. Molly has been manipulated and has major issues now with confidence and self esteem. Jagger does terrible things to Molly but without knowing what he was doing and knowing what he was doing. We watch Molly spiral and fall into the same patterns but she does get out of it. Jagger is not a good person for a good portion of this book. He has his moments and he does learn and grow but man, he made it hard to even sort of like him. Molly had a realistic growth pattern that you would expect from someone who had experienced trauma the way she had. 3.5-4 stars for the story.
The narration was spot on. Both narrators were amazing and brought the story to life. 5 stars for the narration.

This is my ARC review for
Jagger by Author Linzvonc
Rating: ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️ 🌶️🌶️
Definitely look up your triggers before reading
This is the third book in the Archer High series I have to say I loved Wolfe and Kaden but I think Jagger has a special place in my heart. I felt for Jagger yes he has money and friends but he is also pretty much an a33hat that can’t care, until he meets Molly and he finds out Mollys story and then sh1t hits the ceiling.
I could really feel for Molly and her story, she has had it hard since she was fourteen and been treated like crap by men and she has had enough. She definitely is a bada33 and I am glad she had her closure.
I hope I get to read more from this series cause all the characters are so well written and even though these are short reads this series is seriously bada33 I can’t wait to see what Linzvonc has in store for us next!

Set in Archer High and following on from Wolfe and Kaden is the third installment of the series. Jagger is sexy, arrogant and morally gray, the kind of man other men try to be like and women try to be with. Except Molly. Jagger and Molly butt heads when she shows up to be a support to her best friend Aphrodite, Jagger's cousin.
This is not a traditional love story with a happy ever after, instead the author delves into some hard topics and isn’t afraid to make her characters perfectly imperfect.
There are triggers within the story so please read them before starting the book. Molly is a strong female lead and I love where Linz Vonc took her character development, but as always the sexy men steal the show. Another winner for the author, she is the Queen of roller coaster happily ever afters.
Thank you for your talent.

Jagger... what can I say about this complicated, morally black idiot other than I love him, and I don't care what anyone says.
In this novella we see how one simple action snowballed into a big ass mess that ultimately led to Jagger making what I believe is the only decision he's ever regretted, even if it was for a valid reason. I loved the tug and pull between Molly and Jagger and the whole love/hate relationship they have. And I also loved how when all was said and done, they were each other's saving grace.
Jagger has definitely become my favorite anti-hero, and I really hope we get to see more of the Archer High boys because I'm not ready to say goodbye to these bad boys yet.

Geeze this ripped my heart out.
I got the chance to listen to the alc and it was so good. Marie Hawkins and William Macleod did a phenomenal job!!! I was kicking my feet when i saw Molly was narrating this. She's been a fave for a while now! And it was my first time hearing William. I was not disappointed.
Molly has had one of the hardest lives. And I've never wanted to put my palm across an mmc's face as much i did Jagger.
But of course, then I forgave him. Although he starts out as a b@stard, he does his best to make up for his wrong doings.
Molly is put through the ringer in this book. Definitely check your tw's. Poor girl deserved so much better out of life. I was crying for her at some parts and I've never rooted for an hea more.
Tand the way they get their hea broke mt heart too.
This was a ride. I was so here for it!

Thoroughly enjoyed this one! Definitely read the trigger warning for this one, but you know the author writes the characters well when you start to feel bad for the “villain/bad boy”
I definitely understand why Jagger did it and there was even a point when I was reading the scene screaming, come on, Molly, you know there’s a reason! 😂 But, watching them avoid and hate each other for the entire book because they both didn’t want to feel anything takes stubbornness to a whole new level.
The thing I enjoyed most was the trickle from the domino effect, showing how one thing can affect so many others in life.
Overall, great quick read! But definitely proceed with caution and check the trigger warnings first!
