Just now finished so these are my initial thoughts:

This book NEEDS CONTENT WARNINGS:
- Mentions of sexual assault
- Gun violence 
- Parental abandonment and abuse 
- short mention of suicidal ideations 
- Kidnapping
- mentions of physical violence 
- surprise pregnancy

- Marcus is an idiot with no redeeming qualities, just a terrible MMC. I need less of his POV bc golly is he rude, arrogant, and constantly thinking without speaking - hate him 

- Q & Ren are cute, enjoyed their buildup but wish we got more, seemed like whenever their relationship would progress the next chapter would have someone else’s POV 

The book reads like a continuation of book 1, which all in all flows together like a movie so overall plot wise is 👌🏾 but meh on the romance. 

From how these two books ended, I think this series should have just been one big book since everything just flows into one another & it’s not just following a different couple with their own thing/crime to solve. They’re all linked
