Review: ๐น๐‘œ๐“‡๐‘’๐“‹๐‘’๐“‡ ๐’ฎ๐“‰๐’ถ๐“‡๐“‰๐“ˆ ๐’ฏ๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐’พ๐‘”๐’ฝ๐“‰ is another knockout read by Karla and if you havenโ€™t waited forever to get this story then I donโ€™t know what youโ€™ve been reading! This book is Poppyโ€™s and Jaxโ€™s book and from the first page it is obvious the ANGST will be NEXT LEVEL! This book was an emotional rollercoaster for me but also one that kept me in a book hangover long after I finished! 
 
Poppy Wilder was an adorable FMC and her story was such an experience to read, as she was the youngest Wilder sibling to find her match. Karla truly captured the way Poppy pined after Jax in this story and seeing the washer feelings evolved as the story went on made me want to hug her but also shake her when she began dating Dean. Karla did us dirty with the teasing we get with this swoon vet and we can only hope she gives us a short book for him after Poppy let him down! 
 
Jax Wilder was HAWT. I was there for the forbidden vibes he threw out and from the way he had to literally leave the country to avoid his feelings for Poppy. His backstory was heartbreaking and I really loved how he was able to heal some as the book went on. They way Karla dealt with the accidental pregnancy with Jax was probably my favorite part of this book. I enjoyed seeing him go through all the EMOTIONS as he struggled to accept fatherhood. I also appreciated how Karla made his relationship with Poppy to be more raw and up and down than easy going as it proved how much they loved each other by the end! 
 
Jax and Poppy are ANGSTY! These two are some of the most tension filled MCs I have read by Karla yet they also are so different at this point in their lives that you want to root for them. The turmoil Jax feels was compounded by the fact that Cameron was his best friend and the way Karla had the blow up between them was done perfectly while also showing how much Cameron needed their friendship. ๐น๐‘œ๐“‡๐‘’๐“‹๐‘’๐“‡ ๐’ฎ๐“‰๐’ถ๐“‡๐“‰๐“ˆ ๐’ฏ๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐’พ๐‘”๐’ฝ๐“‰ was a binge worthy read full of heartstopping swoon and a must read for anyone enjoying small town, forbidden romance! 
 
Rating: 100+; Poppy and Jax melted my heart and Karla once again gave us a romance perfect for anyone needing angst and found family!
