Ughhh noooo. Man, I told myself 2025 was when I'd trust my gut with dnfing and not finish books out of fomo only to feel like I wasted my time but... this is Rachel Reid! I'll read a bit more and hope for the best

If it helps, Riley is likeable enough for the two of them.

@Evelyn I love Riley already! But I'm having a hard time imagining a redemption that would have me rooting for them being together. I hope RR proves me wrong

I can't wait for your review. Because I definitely had thoughts but I don't want to bias you before you finish.

@Evelyn lol I'll try to stay away from the review section until I finish

Oop I had the same thoughts

@Cody and did you end up liking Adam, and Adam and Riley together?

I've ended up taking this book off my TBR cause every review I'm seeing is about how foul the dynamic between the MCs is and I'm glad I'm not seeing anything to tempt me off that path lol

@Evie come onnnnn, read it and join us on the dark side. Let's all be bitter together

Not really, I just wanted them to start fresh/find happiness with other people hahahah

@Evelyn The literal ONE time that being in Australia, where we get books released late and we have access to hardly any arcs, works in my favour lol. Lets see if Adam becomes less of a shit bag haha 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Evie becoming less of a shit bag is a hard bar for Adam to clear lol 💀

Lol, really? I feel like I've only been seeing everyone love it so I'm really sad at how much I'm not

That's how I currently feel, was hoping that would change...

:((((

I don't know why I've never read anything by this author but I have all of their books on my tbr 🤦

Just piping up to say this conversation is making me smile! ❤️ And I will NEVER read this book. (many thanks @EvelynBella for taking that hit!)

Oh no, I feel bad for being part of putting you off it when i know so many people who loved this book... but then again, im not sure I can make myself finish it so I can't really say much hahah

I'm so intrigued about Heated Rivalry because every time I ask for a recommendation that's at the top of the list so I'll definitely give a try! Thanks for your opinion ☺️

No no, it's not due to you! I decided this based on a ton of reviews! I love this author's talent, but, half the time her romance choices really destroy my pleasure in her work, so, I'm just VERY careful about which of her books I read. This one is a definite No.

@Sandy ohh interesting. I'm kind of curious about which other ones you've avoided and why. I've not read the entire Game Changers series, just half of it but I loved the Ilya and Shane books, and also Time to Shine

LOL the ones you love are the ones I either didn't like as much or avoided! THIS one I'm avoiding bc of lack of sufficient remorse/grovel from our buddy Adam. Too frustrating. But the others--Ilya and Shane, too much non-exclusivity for me to enjoy it, though I did read both. Time to Shine I'm skipping altogether due to all the sex with others. I just can't take that. But I LOVED the rest of Game Changers! I'm just a big ole prude about non-MC action. 😂

@Sandy that makes sense, Time to Shine especially has one of the mcs hooking up with others before they get together, so I get needing to avoid it. I did initially feel weird about it too but it didn't bother me much on my recent reread so I guess I got past it somehow lol
