Dare’s POVs (I so wish thee was more of them) make it so dubious as to whether or not he is on Aubrey’s side- it’s such a mindfuck. Sam Mariano you’re twisting my heart here!

Alright he fooled Aubrey AND Me- most of his shit with her was manipulative, but since he cares about her now he’s trying to protect her, and he discouraged Anae stooping so low. The Hannah thing straight up cut through the sliver of redeemability I thought he had- should’ve believed Sam’s forewarning from the start. I feel for Hannah so hard. This book fucking hurts in such a good way

Out of all the Sam Mariano books I’ve read (which is nearly all of them except the Coastal Elites series) this is probably my second favorite next to Untouchables. So far Dare is actually really charming and you almost forget that he’s plotting against her. I truly can’t tell how much of what he says is bullshit because there does seem to be some level of vulnerability between them.
