"Who didn't like to be needed? Bring needed meant we were good at and good for something. People didn't leave those they needed.  It wasn't the same thing as being loved but it was better than nothing"

One thing to know about me is I love Twisted Games and Rhys and Bridget with my entire heart and I thought no Ana book could POSSIBLY top that however, I've now read King Of Sloth and know that is absolutely untrue. 

I absolutely cannot explain to you how this book made me feel. The warm, happy feelings it has given me I haven't felt this way about a book in so long. This is now my second favourite romance of all time, I love it so deeply and so much its absolutely stolen my heart, body and soul.

"If its good enough for Prince Rhys, it's good enough for me"

Now, I'll start with Xavier because one thing Ana Hunag, Ali Hazelwood and Emily Henry are amazing at, it's writing men I actually like lol but ANYWAY. As I mentioned, Rhys is really precious to me and I didn't think anybody else would overtake and here we are. Xavier Castillo is amazing. I loved reading about him. From the very first chapter he absolutely had me charmed, I just loved that although he has this image that he showcases publicly, he is truly the most caring, warm and sweet human being. The way he wears his heart on his sleeve, the way he truly shows how much he cares about Sloane is absolutely beautiful to me. I adore him so completely, there were moments I truly wanted to curl up and cry for him especially during the section in Bogotà because it absolutely broke my heart and when he was talking about his mother, this man is just such a beautiful soul and I loved watching him develop over the course of the book it truly felt like a privilege.

"Perhaps that was why I rarely went on vacation. It lulled us into a false sense of security only to thrust us back into our regular lives, where we were confronted with a world that kept spinning without us and the realization that our presence didn’t matter at all in the grand scheme of things."

As well as Xavier, I loved Sloane so god damn much. She absolutely deserves the world and is my favourite of the women I've read about in Ana's books so far. Again,I absolutely loved watching her develop over the book and realise that it's okay to feel things, it's okay to be hurt and angry with the way people have treated her and most of all I loved watching her come to the realisation that her family and Bentley were absolutely the ones in the wrong, she did nothing wrong and that she deserved to be loved. I just love her so much, the way she sticks up for Xavier and allows him to grow into the person he needs to be as well as helping him get there. She means everything to me and was sometimes a little too relatable it cut me deep lol. 

I loved the relationship between Xavier and Sloane so much, I loved the way they picked up on the small things about each other, loved that they were so supportive of each other and helped the other one do the growing they needed to do. You can truly tell how much they live each other and how happy they are god I just absolutely adore them.

Overall, if you couldn't tell, I loved this book so deeply. It was everything I absolutely wanted and needed it to be. It made me feel so happy, so much genuine, unfiltered joy that I can't explain. I'm so happy it exists. Also, loved all of the cameos they also made me the HAPPIEST.
