The is an age-gap romance with an intriguing storyline, desire, lust, freaky romance & ofcourse heartbreak, pain and crossroads.

The only thing I could think of was "Holy Fuck" when this book ended, because damnnn the ending is the star of this story.

I went from WTF & disliking the start to woww, this is getting better (about 29% in) to ugghhh why & then woaahhh, shit, shit, shit near the end with tears! It's been a rollercoaster ride with not knowing if I'll like it or not. 

I felt that the starting of the story was a bit...weird? The way Sianna & Drake met isn't something normal and definitely not my preferred taste (some may love it), but I still did read on. I don't understand what connection Drake & Sianna made in one night. Maybe a more time spent together before or after they had sex would've had strengthened the relationship more? (This is what I feel.) Anyways, enter Rayden who's playful, sweet & so freaking romantic, gaahhh! When he & Sianna went ice skating & he linked their hands in his coat, my heart melted & I knew that he'll be mine.♡ 
There are leaps which finally creates a situation where Drake, Sianna & Rayden meet. 

𝐼’𝑚 𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑎𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑑 𝑜𝑓 𝑑𝑦𝑖𝑛𝑔 , 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑠𝑠. 𝐼’𝑚 𝑠𝑐𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑜𝑓 𝑙𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑦𝑜𝑢.”

The thing I hated was how spineless Sianna turned out to be. She melted everytime Drake touched her or even spoke/glanced & girlll you need a backbone & some strong control because this is just not done! You cannot kiss him everytime he tells you to do it, NO.

The part I loved the most was when hell broke loose & ALL the secrets were revealed, damnn there were chaos & everything went so fast together that I didn't know for whom was I crying for more, for Drake, for Sianna, for Rayden or for the other members (yes, they've got their own stuff mixed). I just couldn't stop the tears & when they stopped for a minute, they would again start because of something.

Also, the last page made me go into desperation for my love, Rayden's book!!!

Would rate 3.7 stars⭐

DNF at 56%. I wanted to finish this one because of all the high ratings and reviews but it just wasn’t for me. I can’t resist a good age gap story, especially with a forbidden / taboo angle, but I just couldn’t get into this one.

Some reasons for DNFing include:
- I didn’t like Sia. Having bad luck and being clumsy are not personality traits.
- The dialogue felt awkward and unnatural.
- I didn’t feel like either Sia/Drake or Sia/Rayden had much chemistry.
