gray over Mateo…
The overall story was good, but I just couldn’t get on board with the Mateo train. I found it cringe when it was said when he saw a photo of her at 7 when she was taken making him 15ish how something about her called to him, ugh what… then fast forward he’s 26 and she’s 18. Not sure but when I was 18 I would never date a 26 year old because that’s a whole as man you she’s still in high school. I felt gray at 21 legally able to go to bars and her in high school was a bit much. But this made it so much more cringe. I tried to read past that, but it made it hard. But I truly love gray overall, he didn’t do her dirty, he knew of his uncle for maybe days and was trying to process the information.

When I say these 2 books took me on a 2 day rollercoaster, I AM NOT KIDDING.
I wanted to hate him, but couldn’t helping falling in love with him just like Charlie did.
He was everything she needed
That girl is a badass and deserves every good thing that comes her way.

Holy shit
I thought the first book was amazing. But this, this book. I can't even describe without giving away spoilers. This is worth the read honestly. It was so heartbreaking towards the end but I am so glad thats how it played out.

conflicted
A unique story and not bad but definitely didn’t not see the twists coming and who Charlotte ended with. Not a bad story slightly disappointed we don’t hear more about Paxton or Grayson.

I hated the way it ended and the plot of this one. The same things happening to her right after each other was annoying. I had to skim through this book to finish it.

Not too bad
It was a good read. Jumped between character views alot and not just the main character. Some parts felt a little rushed or like they didn't flow with the book
