the way they found solace and love in eo nearly broke me. i wanted to go sit in traffic,but mainly i felt healed,strage enough. the maturity &emotional competency of the mcs moved me deeply. enough turmoil to last lifetimes, yet their strength persevered.this book deserves sm love. incredibly written. beyond phenomenal imho.

breathtaking, lush, poignant read. erotic,yet the generous and tasteful scenes (yum) weren't what shined through. it was the passion,so intense, so raw i had to put the book down and js process it for a while. the strength of Dosie is unparalleled, i wept and sobbed plenty.the tenderness of her rs with Jennifer made me melt and tbh, bawl. their rs is so devastating yet precious, vulnerability laid so bare.

j.j. arias!! hey queen! girl u have done it again, constantly raising the bar for us all, and doing it flawlessly.i'd say I'm surprised but i know who u are. i've seen it up close and personal. girl, u make me so proud, and ily😍🙌🏼

best read in a whileeee😮‍💨 j.j. does no wrong

I've risen from the dead to say that i read this in 1 day and cried.this has been a LONG time coming :"" PERFECT. absolutely perfect idcidc fk the flaws cus this series and this group of friends mean sm to me. 1000/5

to whoever rmbs i exist ily i hope ure good <3 will be back in like a month😻 byee take care <33

"Please.” Laney’s reply was more wanton moan than speech.And then there was no more pleading.

insanity ohmygod.

"Do you want me?” Laney breathed more than she spoke, her connection to her own body growing more tenuous as she drifted into Jennifer. “Yes,” she whispered like the word weighed a metric ton.

sexual tension 101

Jennifer’s eyes were darker than usual. Laney imagined they were trying to match the tempest outside. The dark water churning under dark clouds. There was something dangerous about unknown depths, but there was a singular beauty too. Laney suddenly understood deep sea divers.

bye this is so romantic i can't do this

Each button she unfastened exposed more of Laney’s back. She tried not to notice the freckles littered over her spine. The ones put there to be kissed.

there BETTER be a freckle kissing scene later😭✋🏻💞

(laney texting jenn about her film sch project)
manchineel.yep, that's lower case on purpose. Can you handle how artsy I was?!? i thought i was so edgy and clever filming this in one take....There’s also no dialogue. CAN YOU STAND MY GENIUS?

😹😹😹 my kinda humour icl

"I promise. It’s more than fine.” She smiled, unleashing a devastating dimple.

nvm I'm already sold 😅😅😅 istg any mc that has dimples...I'm weak.

ooo interesting, the book starts without the usual getting to know u stage.right off the bat the mcs are already acquainted and the plot is moving pretty quick. hmm idk i anticipate first meetings and tend to judge their whole dynamic/book itself based off it,cus i just got to see that chemistry ok sue me!but who knows! it's J.J 😌

saw J.J drop this a few days ago and my gay ass couldn't wait any longer🤷🏻‍♀️ it's been forever since I've binged read😒i fr can't wait,hopefully it's a 3 for 3 hit🤞🏻

after surviving the ticketmaster WAR (not an exaggeration), i managed to buy my taylor swift tickets!!!😭💞 i almost got an aneurysm tf...that's what happens when the entire SEA competes😹

the premise was intriguing and i was enjoying it up till like 65% when the pacing was just off and the romance was rushed, but it's a decent read regardless 😌 sex was🤭 oops.there were aspects that could've been more fleshed out too, like nora's ptsd and the actual war but I'm looking forward to alex's(my gf) book sm

3.5 stars

Ever since the first night they’d shared together, Nora hadn’t had a single nightmare. She finally had reason to believe that all the nightmares were all behind her.

🥺💘 nora my bby

"I wish to hell you never had to get them in the first place, but how it feels when we’re pressed together might just be the best feeling in the entire world to me. Your skin tells your story, and I can’t believe I get to be part of it now.”

i wish we got to see more of nora truly experiencing peace 😔 she's been through too much. also these two are just going at it like rabbits 🤭🤣

“Tell me, Al.” “Get me close,” Alice said. “But don’t let me come.” Nora smirked and nodded at her before she lowered her head again.

christ 🤰🏻

Nora took Alice’s hand and put it on the back of her own head. “Put me where you want me.” “Everywhere. Is everywhere an option?” Alice asked as Nora worked her inside...

😯🤭😵‍💫🤒

“We can wait. You just kissed a woman for the first time last night, and–” Alice cut her off with her lips.

nora being such a sweetie heh🤭 but okay the sex was unexpected as hell💀 they went from 0 to 100 within mere hours..huh...but it was hot though!! 😋

okay yeah the pacing is off though 💀

"Then, come to bed, sweetheart,” Alice said, giving her a quick kiss on the lips.

sweetheart just does it for me everytime 💘

Nora rubbed up and down Alice’s back in an attempt to warm her. “It’s really cold out here,” Nora whispered into Alice’s ear. “We should go.” “I’m warming up,” Alice replied, tucking her chin into Nora’s neck. “How are you this warm?”

🥺✋🏻💓

“Sleep, Nora,” Alice replied. “I’ll be here.” “You don’t have to. You can go to–” “I’ll be here,” Alice repeated, and Nora felt Alice’s hand take her own and entwine their fingers.

they're so cute ✋🏻✋🏻

“Lowly?” Bexley said. “I’m an American wearing a dress that’s way too small.”Alex looked down, smirked, and then looked back up at her. “I think you look great,”

*squeals* 🤧🤭💞

“Bex, I’m trying to follow you here, but–” “I’ve been in love with you since college, Alice...."Just be open to it, okay?” “Open to what?” “You know what, Al. Sometimes, these things happen"

bex 💔 kind of a mess to throw this onto alice while she's going thru sm but i feel for her too :/ and she selflessly just wants alice to be open about the possibility of nora gahhh how sweet

“You could… You could sleep on my shoulder if you want.” She looked away for a second. “It’s only fair – I slept on yours last night.” Alice placed her head on Nora’s shoulder and said, “I can’t sleep, but I can stay like this, at least.”

slow-burn is burning!!🤧💘

"You want to hold me?” Nora asked, feeling her heart speed up. “I can’t protect you how you protect me, but I feel like I want to protect you while you sleep. Is that weird?” Nora shook her head. “So, can I?”

one bed trope done RIGHT😻 vulnerable conversations, holding each other to feel comfort GAHH 🥺

"I’m already staying here,” Nora pointed out with a smile. “I know. I just meant you could stay longer.” “How long, exactly?” “As long as you want, Nora.”

🤧💓

"She looked at me like she was planning to use whatever skills she has by plotting my murder.” Alex laughed lightly. “She’s enamored with you, Alice.”

heh💓🫢

there was a part of her that couldn’t stand the woman. She had to focus now and stop thinking about how Alexandria so blatantly flirted with the Queen every time they were together

🤭🤭
