I read the first half of the first book (flawless? I hate this series’s naming conventions) earlier this year but never cared enough to finish it. This, however, was an addictive read with much more compelling characters. I found Willa to be eminently relatable and I really liked the family dynamic with Cade and Luke. And honestly, I have to give this book credit for having my least favorite trope in it, but executed well for once. 

I get the hype for this book specifically — WAY better than the first book.
