First Line:
There were worse things than being stranded in the middle of nowhere during a rainstorm.
Summary:
Alex Volkov is trying to escape his past and exact revenge on those who did him wrong, but when his best friend forces him to look after their little sister, Alex's cold demeanor begins to crack.
Ava Chen does not need to be babysat, but that's exactly what happens when her brother enlists his black-hearted best friend to live next door. In a poor attempt to unearth Alex's secrets, she starts a game that begins to feel all too real.
My Review: NO SPOILERS
Sweet and spicy! The chemistry and backgrounds of Ava and Alex were beautifully done. I loved their interactions, especially in the first half of the book. They had me rooting for them! I will admit that the climax of the book seemed a little rushed, and I would've liked it to be stretched out a bit more. It did make the ending seem a bit lackluster, but overall this was a great book!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My Favorite Quote(s):
Which meant if I promised Josh I’d look after Ava, I’d fucking look after her, and I’m not talking about a text check-in every two weeks. She was under my protection now.
