I went into this liking both characters very much, loving the brothers best friend trope, but for some reason I had to take this book very slowly. I happened to absolutely love Cree from the previous book, I mean he’s in my top three book boyfriend list, so reading a book about his little sister and his friend made me cringe but also obviously curious. (And while we’re on the topic of Cree I didn’t love his depiction in this book. I understood that it’s from his little sister‘s point of view so it’s obviously a little biased however I felt like he was really made out to be overbearing and kind of the bad guy!)

I really liked seeing Jude‘s inner monologue‘s and understanding why he acts the way he does as well as seeing previous scenes play out from his and Millie’s point of view. Millie was everything. I knew she would be but wow! She’s sweet, she’s sassy, her character did not change once the book was about her and I LOVE that. Sometimes I find that characters change from book to book once it’s about them and the author gets in their head however Millie was consistent and I greatly appreciated it. Jude was the perfect antihero I’m general and I absolutely swooned at the way he treated Millie and paid attention to her interests! He was better than I imagined!

The steamy scenes were steamy, the sweet scenes were super sweet! I really enjoyed this book overall and love the introduction to Jude’s brother… hoping he gets a book in this world too!
