Cliffhanger will kill me

i literally lost sleep over this and I don't know how to survive the wait for the next book. i need that next book. 😭

Clever story but fluffed

Dimensional characters and interesting twists. But it gets bogged down by repetitive declarations of love/lust by the main protagonists.

I’m going to need a minute to process everything…

Ok. So. I personally did not like Crescent City as well as the other works of SJM; however, I’m a sucker for her writing, so here I am, finished with her latest work. I truly just had a “Meh” level of excitement going in. I figured it would follow the typical book two formula of information-overload, introduction of new characters, more world building, and of course a plot-twist cliffhanger to finish it off. Yes, it did have all of these things, but SJM managed to surprise me (yet again)! I enjoyed this book far more than the first Crescent City novel. I think the other supporting characters really brought a life that was much needed. SJM definitely made my jaw drop in surprise more than once with this one, and I am now finishing the book with a much higher excitement level that I started with. The ending plot twist was something that flittered through my mind before I started this book, but I laughed it off…. BUT THEN SHE DID IT! And in true SJM form, it was much better than I imagined.
Now I am left with more questions and theories, and I need time to process them all. I am anxiously waiting to find out how long I have to wait for the next novel.

Also, I am so freaking glad she chose to go back to Elizabeth Evans as the narrator for this series. This woman could read me a soap box and I would be on the edge of my seat begging for more. She. Is. Phenomenal. I am convinced she could make a terrible story entertaining from start to finish, so imagine what she does with incredible stories like SJM’s!! She’s the best. Period.

Last thing… Do not. I repeat. Do NOT let your children (really even teens) listen to/read this series. With each new SJM series the smut level increases exponentially, so proceed with caution… and listen while you are alone. Until next time

WOW!!!

There isn’t much else to say about this book without giving away all of its lovely secrets. SJM has outdone herself with this one!

Best book ever

Bets book of my life and I’m dead. Love love love love love love love
