Ooh I loved being back in this story!! 💜 I forgot how much I missed the characters & also the London setting 🙌
This is Book 2 in the Till Forever Series and carries on where we left off, so best read in order!
I thought this was a real middle book for the series, setting us up for the ride to come ... as it explored more of MMC Sebastians struggles as his underground crime organisation took back off, alongside the need to juggle being CEO & his relationship with FMC Aria. It also allowed for some of his past to be brought to light through the well placed flash back chapters, which allowed you to understand some of his deceptive reasoning when it came to Aria🖤
Arias growth was evident within this part of the story ... through her completion of therapy, boost in self confidence & belief and heightened stubborn streak - although the trauma still lingered & was made obvious in areas. Again the flash backs between her & Callum helped to produce a larger picture of her trauma and how he shielded her during it - you couldnt help but enjoy their relationship & secretly soften toward the idea of them together (even if you didnt really want it to happen!!) 🫣
I loved the relationship between MMC & FMC Aria - it was still taboo, still hot & heavy ... but it also showcased some strain and in turn highlighted their strength 🖤
The found family element was still at the forefront with key plots revolving around/including the sidecharacters - my favortie ofc was still Arias bestie Serfina her energy & their girly friendship whilst keeping the guys on their toes always made me smile! 🥰
The action is the last third of the story gripped me ... and eeek the ending - its really set us up well for the 3rd part of their story to come 💜 only now I'm worrying about what the HEA is actually gonna look like 🫣🖤

First..... noooooo how can you do that to us 😭😭
Till Forever Falls Apart is book 2 of this series and what a way to end it, I actually gasped out loud on the train ( sorry fellow commuters 🤣) and sat stunned with that ending leaving us hanging...... 👀
Once again Donna's writing just hooks you and doesn't let go until the very end and actually not even once you finish it! What an emotional rollercoaster this was, the characters are so well written, and you can't help but feel for Aria through this who really has been through A LOT! Sebastian, Sebastian, Sebastian ( shakes head) why The Deceit, Lies and Secrets! Just why!! I loved getting to know Hayden and Serifina more throughout this one, and you know that the guys in this will do anything for there women!
Till Forever Falls Apart is a fast paced, romantic suspense dark romance that will make you laugh, cry, shout, swoon and be warned nearly throw what ever you are reading on across the room, but oh so worth the read, you will not be disappointed!

Ever since I read the first book I’ve been waiting to get my hands on this one and it did not disappoint. As I was reading I couldn’t help but love the obsessiveness Sebastian has for Aria but at the same time there were certain moments where I was like “give her a break and just talk to her!” There was a moment I was holding my breath and so scared of what was happening 🫣and then after that I just wanted to hug Aria so bad 😭. I was not expecting the turn of events that happened! I was shocked and things kept getting worse. This is one of those books that after you finish reading it you can’t do anything else but just look up at the ceiling or stare at a wall😫. Now there were some spicy scenes that were just 🥵. Overall I can’t wait to read the next one because I need to know what happens with them 😭.

How much love can survive once trust starts rotting from the inside?
Till Forever Falls Apart by Donna Richards pulled me back into Sebastian and Aria’s world with a much darker, heavier atmosphere than the first book. This dark romance leans deeply into emotional tension, obsession, trauma, and the dangerous weight of secrets, creating a story that feels constantly on the verge of collapse. One of the things this series does exceptionally well is creating an emotional addiction. This isn’t the kind of romance you read for softness or stability, because the relationship between the protagonists constantly balances between love and emotional self-destruction.
What starts as a relationship already strained by lies and unresolved pain slowly turns into something even messier as Sebastian’s underground criminal world becomes impossible to separate from the man Aria loves. There’s a strong psychological component running through the entire novel: the fear of losing control, the need to protect someone at any cost, and the thin line between devotion and destruction. Sebastian was probably the most frustrating and compelling part of the book for me. This installment digs much deeper into his mind and finally exposes more of the darkness hiding beneath his composed exterior. He’s possessive, emotionally damaged, protective to a fault, and often infuriating in the choices he makes, but that’s also what made him feel believable. The flashbacks add welcome depth to his character, helping explain parts of his behavior without fully excusing him. Aria, on the other hand, continues to balance vulnerability and strength in a way that keeps their relationship emotionally unstable but addictive to follow. Their dynamic is built on dependence, fear, desire, and unresolved trauma, forcing conflicting reactions from the reader—you understand him, then hate him, then pity him, then immediately become frustrated with him again.
Donna Richards’ writing style is very direct and bingeable. The prose itself isn't overly lyrical, but it works perfectly because it keeps the emotional urgency high at all times. The pacing is extremely fast, and once the story picks up, it becomes difficult to stop reading; almost every chapter ends with some kind of emotional escalation or reveal that pushes you to read "just one more chapter." Between the flashbacks, the tension inside the criminal underworld, and the constant emotional push and pull, the book creates that chaotic feeling where you know everything is heading toward disaster but you still can’t look away. The story wisely focuses more on emotional spirals, atmosphere, and psychological pressure rather than just pure action alone.
Readers need to go into this story expecting intensity more than realism. The emotional reactions are heightened, the dynamics are toxic at times, and the criminal atmosphere amplifies everything. If you enjoy dark romance with morally grey men, obsessive love, and emotionally messy relationships, this will work very well for you. If you prefer quieter romances, healthier communication, or slower character introspection without constant conflict, this series might feel overwhelming or repetitive in places. At times, the drama does become slightly redundant and a few twists felt predictable, which is why this sits around a 3.5-star rating for me rather than higher. However, I can’t deny how addictive the reading experience was. And that ending? Absolutely cruel in the best possible way for a romance saga like this, leaving you emotionally stranded in the middle of the disaster and desperately needing the next book to make sense of everything.
If love keeps surviving damage, manipulation, and fear… at what point does it stop being salvation and start becoming ruin?

Till Forever Falls Apart by Donna Richards
Book 2 in The Till Forever Series
4.5 Stars ⭐
Tropes: •Morally Grey MMC •Romantic Suspense •Organised Crime •Found Family •Dual POV •“Good Girl”
“Wifey,” I whispered. She smiled, her eyes sparkling as she elbowed me playfully. “Giving me your name already.” “It’s always been yours.”
Till Forever Falls Apart was emotional, frustrating, heartbreaking, and completely addictive all at once. This book absolutely put me through it emotionally, but in the best possible way.
The story follows Sebastian and Aria as their relationship begins to strain under the weight of secrets, trauma, organized crime, and Sebastian’s desperate need to protect the people he loves — even if it means pushing them away in the process. Told through dual POVs, the book balances romance, suspense, emotional angst, and found family dynamics incredibly well.
What I loved most about this story was how emotionally raw it felt. The relationship wasn’t perfect or idealized, and the characters themselves were deeply flawed, which made everything feel so much more real. Sebastian was one of the most frustrating MMCs I’ve read recently because so many of his choices made me want to scream at him, but at the same time, the emotional depth behind his character made it impossible not to stay invested.
Aria completely broke my heart throughout this book. Watching her slowly feel the distance growing between them while still trying to hold onto the relationship was, at times, devastating. Her emotional journey felt incredibly realistic, and there were so many quieter moments that hit just as hard as the bigger emotional scenes.
Shoutout to Hayden, especially, who quickly became such a standout character for me because he consistently held Sebastian accountable rather than enabling his behaviour, and, honestly, some of his conversations were exactly what Sebastian needed to hear.
This book is filled with angst, emotional tension, morally grey characters, trauma, love, loyalty, and complicated relationships that feel painfully human. If you love dark, emotional romances with protective MMCs, found family, romantic suspense, and messy yet deeply consuming relationships, I’d definitely recommend this one.
Also, the ending?!!! Hello! I am in need of the next book immediately!

Till Forever Falls Apart is an emotionally charged and intense continuation of Donna Richards’ Till Forever series, raising the stakes for Aria and Sebastian in ways that feel both devastating and inevitable. After everything they endured to escape the violence and trauma caused by Jason, readers are given the fragile hope that Aria and Sebastian might finally have the peace they fought so hard for. But this book quickly proves that healing is never simple, especially for someone like Sebastian Knight.
The author leans heavily into tension, danger and emotional turmoil, pulling Sebastian back toward the darkness he desperately tried to leave behind. Not only is Sebastian trying to run Luxe Corp, he is also balancing the demands of The Organisation while desperately attempting to keep the criminal side of his life hidden from the woman he loves. His need to protect Aria leads him into secrecy, lies and omissions, all justified in his mind as keeping her safe, even when those choices threaten to drive a wedge between them. The consequences of saving Aria, and the need to involve The Organisation, cast a long shadow over their relationship, creating a constant push and pull between love, loyalty and survival. Sebastian remains the definition of a morally grey hero, fiercely protective, deeply flawed and impossible not to root for, even when his choices become increasingly complicated.
Aria’s journey is equally compelling as she attempts to build a future free from fear while grappling with the reality that loving Sebastian means standing beside a man whose past refuses to release him. Their chemistry remains a standout, but what makes this instalment particularly gripping is how their love is tested to its absolute limit.
Adding another layer of tension is the arrival of Jason’s brother, Callum, following Jason’s death. On the surface, he appears to be checking in on Aria while offering his services to Sebastian and The Organisation. However, there is something undeniably calculating about the way he uses his friendship with Aria as a way to quietly place himself within their inner circle. His presence brings an unsettling edge to the story and leaves readers questioning his true intentions.
My View: I was completely invested in Aria and Sebastian’s story from beginning to end. The emotional angst, danger and intensity had me desperate to know what would happen next with each flip of my page. Sebastian continues to be such a compelling morally grey hero and I loved seeing how fiercely he would go to any lengths to protect Aria, even when it meant keeping huge secrets and convincing himself that lying to her was for her own good. Watching him juggle Luxe Corp, The Organisation and the dangerous realities of his life while trying to hold onto the woman he loves made for such compelling reading. Callum’s arrival added another layer of intrigue because while he seemed helpful, there was always a feeling that something more was going on beneath the surface. And holy wow, that ending…it came out of nowhere and had me holding my breath. So now I will absolutely be stressed out on tenterhooks until book three is released because I desperately need to know what happens next.

Till Forever Falls Apart was such a strong continuation to Sebastian and Aria’s story, and I definitely recommend reading book one before diving into this because this picks up directly after that ending.
Sebastian is trying to balance so many different parts of his life at once — running his underground crime organization, maintaining his role as a CEO, and trying to protect and build a future with Aria. Watching him struggle between those worlds added so much tension throughout the story, especially because you can feel how badly he wants things to work.
I also really loved seeing more of Sebastian’s past through the flashbacks. It gave more depth to his character and helped explain so much of the weight he carries.
Aria had some really good character growth in this book as well. You can see the progress she has made through therapy and how her confidence has grown compared to book one, but the story also shows that healing is not linear. There are still parts of her trauma that continue to affect her, and I appreciated that the book didn’t try to rush or erase that.
The flashbacks involving Callum also added another emotional layer to the story. Seeing how protective he was of Aria during some of her darkest moments helped better understand her emotional journey and the relationships surrounding her.
Sebastian and Aria together were honestly one of my favorite parts of the book. Even with all the danger, trauma, and outside pressures, their connection still felt strong throughout the story.
And that ending?! Knowing there will be a book three makes so much sense because it absolutely leaves you needing the next book immediately.
If you enjoy darker romance with emotional depth, morally grey characters, suspense, trauma healing, and relationships that are tested through impossible situations, this series is definitely worth picking up.

This book emotionally wrecked me 😭🫠
After the ending of book 1, I went into this absolutely terrified for Sebastian and Aria, and honestly this book kept me emotionally stressed the entire time. Watching the misunderstandings, tension, and emotional distance slowly build between them hurt so much because you could still feel how deeply they loved each other underneath all the pain.
Sebastian frustrated me SO much throughout this book because seeing him push Aria away while claiming she was his everything genuinely broke my heart. I understood his fear, his guilt, and why he thought he was protecting her, but at the same time I just wanted him to TALK to her instead of hurting her himself 😭
And Aria… my poor girl 😭 She finally seemed to be getting something good in life, only for everything to fall apart around her again. Watching her go through all of this hurt so much.
Also, I cannot believe I’m saying this, but there were moments where I was fully siding with Callum 🫠😂 He was honestly one of the few characters making sense at times, and I kept hoping he wouldn’t suddenly turn into the bad guy because I was getting too attached to him.
And don’t even get me started on Sebastian’s dad because that man had me losing my mind every few chapters 😭 This book genuinely had me ranting, angry, emotional, heartbroken, and stressed the whole way through.
The angst, emotional conflict, twists, and tension were SO well done because I was completely invested in every second of it. And then THAT ending… Absolutely not. My heart cannot handle that ending 😭 I literally bawled my eyes out and just sat there emotionally destroyed afterwards. My heart hurts for both Aria and Sebastian so much.
This series has officially consumed me and now I desperately need book 3 because I refuse to be left emotionally suffering like this 🫠😂

I was incredibly lucky to receive both book one and book two as ARCs, and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to dive into this series early.
Donna Richards completely pulled me back into the world of Sebastian and Aria from the very first chapter. I was hooked all over again and genuinely struggled to put this book down. The emotional intensity of this story was overwhelming in the best way possible, and I’m honestly still processing everything that happened.
While I loved the first book for introducing us to their journey, this sequel took things to a much darker and deeper level. Learning more about Sebastian’s past and seeing the chaos surrounding him unfold added so much depth to his character. It was heartbreaking, intense, and at times completely devastating.
This story is overflowing with obsession, passion, and emotional turmoil. There were moments where the intensity felt intoxicating, and others where it highlighted just how unhealthy love can become when secrets and control take over.
Aria remains such a kind-hearted and loving character, which made everything even more painful to witness. She loves Sebastian so deeply, and part of me believes she would stand by him through anything if he would only let her in completely. But chapter by chapter, Sebastian begins to unravel.
And that ending… absolutely gut-wrenching. I honestly have no idea how I’m supposed to recover from a cliffhanger like that.

This book was emotional, frustrating, heartbreaking, and completely addictive all at once 😮💨
We’ve got:
🖤 morally grey MMC
🔪 organized crime
🥀 romantic suspense
✨ found family
💭 dual POV
🔥 “good girl”
Sebastian and Aria absolutely put me THROUGH IT in this book. Their relationship feels so raw and messy in the best way because neither of them are perfect, and the emotional weight between them felt incredibly real.
Sebastian honestly stressed me out so much because his need to protect everyone constantly clashes with his inability to actually let people in. So many of his choices made me want to scream at him, but at the same time, I couldn’t stop loving his character.
And Aria?? She completely broke my heart. Watching her slowly feel the distance growing between them while still desperately trying to hold onto the relationship was devastating at times.
I also have to mention Hayden because he quickly became one of my favorite characters. The way he actually held Sebastian accountable instead of excusing his behavior made those moments hit even harder.
This series does angst SO well. Between the emotional tension, the suspense, the loyalty, the trauma, and the complicated relationships, I was fully invested from beginning to end.
And that ending??? Yeah… I need the next book immediately 😭

Review of advance copy received from Author
First of all, thank you for the ARC. ❤️
I thought I was ready for this book but this book knocked the breath out of me with its intensity, plot twists, and pure emotions. My heart broke for Aria so much and it broke for Sebastian, too.
He clearly needed to work on his issues as Hayden had been telling him since book one and I knew they'd reach a point where they'd be no coming back from. 😭
I have no clue how his redemption arc is going to be like but it better be INTENSE. I just wanted him to talk to her, the way he had confided in her in the first book and she took it so well (that's what he said 😉)....why did you do that Seb? 😭😭 Ily but I can't defend you in court with your actions.
And that epilogue twist? Excuse me? I was gobsmacked and stared at the wall for a solid two minutes.
A moment now for Callum...my god that man? I told Donna he's a green forest and I need to get my head checked. 😂😂 Unapologetic about that because wdym he knew the right things to do and say? Ughhh. And that nickname? Weak in my knees!! 🧎♀️😫
That being said, please check the trigger warnings before proceeding and be prepared for the ride. Raw intensity and toxicity at it's best and you'll fall right in love with every twist and turn of the story. So much to say about this book but I've already said too much (I think) 😂❤️
PETITION FOR ARIA TO GET A BREAK! 😫 MY BABY GIRL.

Návrat do Organizácie nie je jednoduchý. Takisto sa nedá sedieť na dvoch stoličkách. A keď vám začnú hádzať polená pod nohy, je na čase vybrať si - mafia alebo legálny biznis. To by však Sebastian nemohol mať za otca úplného sviniara a tajnostkára.
Kniha je druhý diel trilógie Till Forever, takže pred čítaním tejto knihy si prečítajte prvý diel (Till Forever Begins) a trpezlivo si počkajte na pokračovanie, lebo aj táto kniha končí cliffhangerom.
No, neviem, čo by som k tej knihe povedala. Celá je zameraná na Sebastiana (aj napriek tomu, že je to dual POV). Môžeme tak vidieť aký bol na začiatku vzťahu s Ariou a ako sa vplyvom Organizácie zmenil. Som zvedavá, čo nás čaká v trojke, lebo táto kniha bola dosť nabitá emóciami, obzvlášť na konci.
Kniha sa číta pomerne rýchlo (ak vás chytí), pretože kapitoly sú krátke a dej je rýchly. Okrem POVs sa strieda aj minulosť s prítomnosťou, čo tam ani nemuselo byť. No ak čakáte v tejto dark romance nejakú akciu, moc sa tam toho teda nedialo. Tá kniha mi dokonca prišla celkom nudná a dlho som zvažovala DNF, ale zároveň som bola zvedavá, čo bude ďalej, ako to skončí a čo nás čaká vo finále (tak dúfam, že budem mať možnosť si prečítať aj tretí diel).
Osobne by som celú trilógiu asi poňala inak, ale inak to nie je zlé čítanie.

Thank you to Donna Richards and Everafter PR for the opportunity to read this heartstopping story.
Gosh, Donna nearly broke me with this one. Aria and Sebastian had everything after the trauma of book 1! I was so excited to see them grow together and learn about each other's childhoods. While I got those stories, I also got a lot of frustration. I want to hug and slap Sebastian at the same time! That man cannot see the forest for the trees! My poor kindle paid the price after chapter 30. Aria, the poor girl, I hope she opens her eyes. I am chomping at the bit to see the conclusion and I hope a few characters get what they deserve.
Tropes:
Morally Gray MMC;
Organized Crime;
Romantic Suspense;
Cliffhanger;
Found Family;
Dual POV
Favorite Quotes:
"She was that part I’d been missing, and I wasn’t ashamed to admit it, because she was all mine.”
“Nyx, when are you going to realise that I’d move heaven and earth to get you what you want.”
“Aria would be my downfall. I knew it and oddly welcomed it if it meant her staying by my side.”

Review of advance copy received from Author
Holy moly! This is such a cracking second book in the trilogy. Heartbreaking on so many levels. Characters I loved in the first book I warmed too less but also felt heartbroken for them and willed them to do better.
Aria and Sebastian’s chemistry can never be denied but is love enough?
Keeping secrets pushes the ones you love away.
What I did notice in this book compared to the first was the level of detail in some of the acts Sebastian does within the organisation I found myself squirming and grimacing at the detail of violence, it really amplified the level of downfall and another layer of who he is that we hadn’t really seen before.
I really enjoyed the twist of Callum and the backstabbing within the organisation and his love for Aria. It was so cleverly done, and you kind of forget it’s even a possible outcome.
So much trauma and heartbreak in this book for so many characters it’s a tear jerker for sure.
And that ending 😳 holy crap what a way to end a second book in a trilogy!
This is a hard hitting, disturbing and gritty dark romance mafia violence read and I ate it up!
I cannot wait for book 3!

Review of Advanced Reader Copy received from Author
I started this book and finished it in a single day. I was completely hooked.
The pacing was incredibly fast, and once things started rolling, I couldn’t put it down. Sebastian absolutely had me screaming throughout this book. As much as I enjoy seeing his darker side, there were so many moments where I was yelling at him internally for how he was handling things. It was frustrating in the best way and made the tension even stronger.
This installment really leaned into heightened emotions and conflict, and it worked on me. Even when I was annoyed, I was deeply invested and needed to know how everything was going to unfold. And that ending… wow. I am not okay being left hanging like that. It perfectly set up what’s coming next and immediately made me want the next book.
Overall, this was an addictive, fast‑paced read that kept me fully engaged the entire time. I’m more than ready to continue the series and see what happens after that ending.

I should have seen it coming from the title of the book itself.
This book is the second installment in the Till The Forever series.
The story follows Aria and Sebastian, along with glimpses into their past through flashbacks. It explores their new life together as a couple while slowly leaving your heart shattered. There are so many layers between these two characters, and uncovering them made the story even more compelling.
This book had it all: spice, romance, emotional moments, and heartbreak. The story keeps you hooked till the very end, only to leave you craving for more.
The writing style is simple yet immaculate. I especially loved the balance between the present timeline and the flashbacks, as it added so much depth to their character arcs and relationship.
I genuinely cannot wait for the third book to be out.

I have been waiting to get my hands of this book since I finished book 1
Donna you did not disappoint me.. I was 100% invested in this book from the moment I picked it up to the very end.
I experienced every emotion while reading this book from wanting to shake Sebastian to swooning and I nearly pitched my kindle across the room.
The twists and turns in this book had me turning pages fast like a women possessed.
It was fast paced and absolutely amazing.
Now the ending how could you do that to me.. I'm not happy with how you left that..
I sobbed so much the last 20% of the book that when I finished the book I was lost for words and had only my tears.
Now pretty please can we have book 3 soon..
Thankyou for everafterpr for the gifted arc.

I really enjoyed continuing Aria and Sebastian’s story. One of my favorite things about this series is watching them grow and evolve through the challenges life throws their way.
Their journey continues to be emotional and engaging, and I found myself rooting for them every step of the way. I’m definitely looking forward to seeing what the third book has in store for them.
Thank you to the author for the ARC copy.

J’ai bien apprécié la suite de l’histoire d’Aria et Sebastian. Ce que j’aime le plus dans cette série, c’est de les voir évoluer au travers des épreuves et grandir ensemble malgré les obstacles.
Leur parcours demeure touchant et captivant, et j’avais constamment envie de les voir réussir. J’ai très hâte de découvrir ce que le troisième tome leur réserve.
Merci à l’auteure pour la copie ARC.

The softness the men in this book have for their women despite the dark underground business they are caught up in is night and day and I’m here for it. I enjoy the flashbacks, they give the story and the characters relationships much more depth. My fave character is Serafina,she is a badass female with a strong male who is putty in her hands and i love their dynamic. This book had me constantly questioning what was next, i ate the entire thing up in 2 sittings however the ending? I beg your finest pardon? Excuse you? I need book 3 immediately!
Till Forever Falls Apart is out to buy on May 14th so i suggest you pre-order now and if you have not already quickly read Till Forever Begins to fall in love with the characters the way i have.

Arc In Exchange For A Review
I received an arc for this book. Its the second book in the series. Definitely recommend reading the first one before diving into this one.
The book starts off right where we left off from book one, with Aria and Sebastian. I did like their relationship and you could see how much they did love each other. I just didn't like how Sebastian would keep thinking about and knowing how wrong it was of him to keep things from her without trying to communicate with her throughout the book, so that was frustrating, but you could feel the love he did have for her.
I was engaged the whole time reading and the ending was a shock and can't wait until the next book to come out after that cliffhanger.

This review is on an advanced readers copy of this book!
In book two of this series we meet aria and Sebastian at the start of their happy ever after…. NOT. I’m so serious when I say that Sebastian lied to her about three minutes into the book. Aria is stronger than he will ever be and he treats her like a DOORMAT. Sebastian is shoulder deep I. The organization and hiding and lying to aria every chance he gets. Aria is pretending to not care because that sweet baby’s doesn’t know any better. She is running from man to man looking for a safe place to land. Unfortunately the end of this book end on a cliffhanger and aria is still far from her happy ending. I will be bugging Donna until I get the next ARC of the third book.

I thought I loved Sebastian and Aria in Till Forever Begins, but Till Forever Breaks Apart took my heart, shattered it into a million pieces, and then slowly tried to put it back together. I am unwell.
I was only 12 chapters in when I found myself sliding into Donna’s DMs because I had so many questions and zero chill. The grip this story had on me was immediate. If you think you know where Sebastian and Aria’s story is going, you don’t.
The twists and turns are so masterfully and sensitively written that I’m still sitting here trying to process what I just read. It is officially living rent-free in my head for the foreseeable future.
If you loved Till forever Begins, clear your schedule. You aren't ready, but you need this like I need book 3!

If you are a fan of Dark Romantic Suspense than this series is for you. I definitely recommend reading the first (Til Forever Begins) before you dive in, but you can sort your way through without.
We are immediately thrown into the complications of relationships in the type of world these characters live in. Your heart will go on a roller-coaster ride, and there is no way you can get off until it is over.
This is a pretty spicy book, but it is dark for all the right reasons. Come check it out for yourself, you won't regret it!

Another amazing book from Donna.
Loved this book it had me hooked from the very beginning and omg the ending 😱
Sebastian did deserve a clip round the ear at times during this book and I felt bad for Aria but I do love them as a couple.
This is a couple that is working through real life issues and it’s raw. I loved that it wasn’t shown as a happy fairy tale like a lot of books.
Definitely an emotional rollercoaster.
This book had me suspicious of one character because he was seemingly too nice but there’s a reason for that 😏
Definitely recommend this book and make sure you’ve read book one first

This book takes place after Till Forever Begins and man you just want grab and shake Sebastian. Aria thought life was going to be everything she had been hoping it would be with Sebastian, but then the lies started. This is a book that just makes you want to scream. Sebastian has his head stuck right up his a*s thinking he is doing the right thing but really he's just destroying the one good thing he had.
Aria is left to go through her own life altering situation and it's just so heartbreaking. I really hope book 3 comes out sooner rather than later because I am not okay after that cliffhanger!

4.5⭐️ Oh my! All the angst, all the feels, all the heartbreaking emotion!!
Following on from book one, 𝐓𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐬, Aria & Sebastian’s story continues. These two!! He makes questionable choices with good intentions but ultimately, so frustrating!! And my heart just cried out for Aria & all she’s been through!!
Again Donna’s writing sucks you right into the story! There’s some focus on development for some of the supporting characters as we navigate the up’s & downs of the storyline which I loved. But ultimately this, is a heart wrenching read. I’m so curious for book three after that emotional ending. I just hope less crying will be involved. Definitely recommend!!

This book was full of straight up OBSESSION. Sometimes it was really really good, but other times, this book made me realize it's not always healthy.
Aria is happy and in love with the man of her dreams...but maybe everything is not what it seems. Sebastian is starting to unravel chapter by chapter and he's slowly taking Aria with him. It's actually kind of sad because she is so kind and pure and I just know she would accept his secrets if he just opened up to her.
Also, that ending? Gut wrenching. I don't know how I'm supposed to survive with a cliff hanger like that.

Read the first book in this series in a day because I couldn’t put it down. I found myself so frustrated with Sebastian this book because of his lack of communication, and frustrated with Aria for standing up more for herself after everything she’s been through. And yet, by then end, I am still wanting them to have a happy ending! It is a reminder that these characters are human and changing throughout each book. Looking forward to see the how the story continues.
Good balance of spice and plot. I like how it flows with the action and doesn’t seem forced in.

I really like this book. What's all my attention was the initial start of the blurb, "A promise. A reckoning. A love that may not survive." It had my interest up for sure. I absolutely loved Aria & Sebastian they were absolutely amazing characters. I loved how they were written. The chemistry between the two was amazing. I also love The angst part where she was the dreamer and he was the man that love wasn't for him, he wasn't the man to settle down. Overall, I love how everything came together it's a very beautiful story I preferably loved it.
