The only reason I gave this 2 stars instead of one is because it was (at least up to, like, 50%, before I had any clue that none of the characters would have a well-made redemption arc) entertaining. I really liked the idea of the rich kid boarding school. I love that trope. But this was just an incredibly poorly executed dark romance that instead glorifies SA, slut shames women CONSTANTLY, and tries to shift the blame of r*pe on the girl. And is actually convinced that it’s right. Whit Lancaster burst into my life like a storm. Dark and thunderous, furious and fierce. Cold, heartless and devastatingly beautiful, like the statues in our prep school gardens. The school with his family name on the sign. He can do no wrong here. This is his domain. Whether you’re trying to be more witty, flirty, or be seen as an amateur comedian, making people laugh is a social superpower. Not everyone is a natural-born comedian, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add a splash of humor and fun to your conversations. And it’s worth the effort: WRONG. The word ‘whore’ is used 44 times in this book. And all of them are said to Summer, our MC, directly to her face, by none other than our brilliant Whit. No, I’m not making up a random number. She was also a lot stronger than I thought she would be considering she wasn't exactly a doormat when it came to Whit. Yes she gave him her body but she also stood up to him when he was bullying her (okay but it wasn't even bullying when all Whit did was shun her ksjjsksdk boy he needed to up his game, me and hala expected something on the level of Untouchable).
My issue with this is all the characters feel flat to me. Like I’m being told what they’re supposed to be like but they just seem like different shades of beige. The only one who leans towards a more colorful spectrum is Sylvie. And later Monty, that guy is fabulous! i- why was this teased? I WANTED THIS TO HAPPEN. MONICA DONT BE SHY AND GIVE US THIS NEXT TIME. i'm dirty don't care GIVE meEMEMEMEME. Bold, brazen, depraved, and delicious! Their chemistry is complicated and consuming. A beautiful mess - equal parts twisted and magical' 5***** Reader Review All these kissy-pissy scenes happened when their parents were having SEX in the other room! (can I die? Can this review get any worse?) I believe so, I think being vulnerable creates more space to learn and understand one's self. And I think the more we understand and accept parts of ourselves, the less we fear what others will think or say about us. I think that gives us power.

Summer Savage meets Whit Lancaster in the middle of a party one night when they are both aged 14, a night where Whit calls her a whore because her mom is having an affair with his dad when both are married to other people, steals her first kiss, and shows Summer she isn't the only one bathing in dark sexual fantasies. He leaves her with his hate and a memory neither will forget, until 4 years later when they reunite when Summer transfers to the same school as Whit for her senior year. Whit IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST AHOLES I'VE EVER MET AND I F'N LOVE HIM. Oh my goddddamnnn! 🥵 And I swear he's also one of the dirtiest talkers I've read from Monica. JFC!!! I didn't want this book to end!!! This book is my jam!!! MY JAM!!!! And omg he told he totally took her 🍑💦 and it was PERFECTION.Sex was the only connection they had, and the entire book revolves around it! It's too long to accommodate any actual plot (which was non-existent). star ☆ ykw as I keep thinking about this book and I realized that it's not that good. It's entertaining cause of how toxic they are, the drama and the things that happened here.
it would've seemed like an accident and Summer wouldn't be convicted ⛓️. but it was still wrong that Janine let Summer suffer with all that guilt for so long, while knowing that Summer didn't commit the crime. and Janine's reasoning for killing them was that Jonas wanted to divorce her because she was hooking up with Whit's father, and Janine did not want to divorce because then she'd lose all the fame 📸 and power that came with being Jonas' wife. so she killed him, and Yates in the process. Summer is rightfully appalled and furious, yet a little turned on 🥵. can't say the same for me, personally, if I was in that situation, but it worked for her. maybe that's because they were both 14-years-old at the time. anyway, he made that statement after he accused Summer's mother of sleeping with Whit's father, who is a rich and married man 🤵💍. not too long after that, they kiss, do some touching, and Summer meets up with her mother so they can leave. but guess what? Summer realizes that Whit's accusation might hold some truth because her mother did look like she might've hooked up with Whit's father while Summer was away. I read this because it’s a bully romance, enemies to lovers, set in a private school and someone said that it gives gossip girl vibes?! you name it. It was also fast paced so it’s easy to read and be captivated by the story. And yes, they are toxic also. However, The smut in this book? amazing. Didn’t expect to liked it sm and the epilogue was lowkey cute ngl. Now he knows all my secrets. My hate. My truth. And he promises to use my words against me. I’ll be ruined if my darkest secret gets out. Whit, at the near end of the book, does a complete 180 change after spending months apart from his boo, and everything is justified. Without explanation. Or apologies. Just with immediately having sex. That’s it. She tries to talk and he, logically, starts dirty talking her and they proceed to have sex in a restaurant. Point blank. And after this wonderful reconciliation, our dear MC Summer proceeds to forget all the complaints that had been VERY relevant before and spends the night with him without questioning anything. Girl.
