If you've been reading with me for a while, you'll know that Jennifer Armentrout is one of my very favourite authors. The Lux series and the Covenant series are a couple of my all time favourites, and I loved The Darkest Elements trilogy as well. I had extremely high expectations going into this books, and I could not have been more excited. 
 Unfortunately, while I did really, really enjoy the book as a whole, I had a few problems with it. 
 BUT, there was a whole lot to love too! Namely, Cameron Hamilton. Where do I even begin? I love him so, so much and he was truly the saving grace of this story. Literally only a mere few pages in and I was already in love. The way that they met was so cute, and then he almost ran her over, and then they found out that they lived across from eachother in the arpartment buliding (plus his tortoise was so fricking adorable), and then he sat next to her in class and gave her a cookie, and then they were partners and went statgazing, and it was all just so cute! Cam was caring, romantic, absolutely hilarious, loving, protective, sweet, unwaveringly loyal, and ridiculously gorgeous. The love that he demonstrated for Avery, between cooking her breakfast every Sunday and bringing her homemade baked goods (and I will admit that I found his baking skills to be very attractive), protecting her at the Halloween party, taking care of her when she was sick, even though he was upset with her at the time, and being so concerned about her past was too much for me to handle. Where can I purchase myself my own personal Cameron Hamilton?!? 
 Something that did bother me a tad bit with Cameron is the way he called Avery sweetheart ALL THE TIME. When he did it at the beginning of the story, before they were dating, in was in a more sarcastic way that annoyed Avery and made me laugh. However, when he called he that as a nickname when they were dating, it became very, very irritating. 
 I found their romance to be relatively realistic, as they were friends for a while and really cared for each other before they started dating. 
 I also loved the way that Avery continuously turned down Cam when he asked her out as it was hilarious, though a little stupid on Avery's part. I would have said yes in a heartbeat. 
 I honestly don't even think that what I'm about to say even counts as a spoiler because it was pretty dang obvious very early on, but I'll count it as one anyway. (view spoiler)[ I'm not really sure whether or not it was supposed to be a plot twist that Avery had been raped, because it was made to be so incredibly obvious very early on in the story,. In fact, I had a pretty good guess before even reading the book just based on the synopsis alone. I feel like it could have been a really interesting mystery aspect of the story that would really keep you interested, but sadly, it just wasn't played out that way. (hide spoiler)] 
 (view spoiler)[ Also, the synopsis was almost a bot deceiving in the sense that it made me expect there to be someone stalking Avery or something, but that really didn't happen. At first it appeared that may have been the case, but I soon realized that the unknown caller/emailer was actually Molly, though Avery never really managed to figure that out on her own for some reason. The twist was just way too obvious and it could have been built up to be really intense, but unfortunately, it was not. (hide spoiler)] 
 I feel like my biggest issue with the book was the sex. Obviously I knew that it would be steamier since it was New Adult, a genre that I haven't really read before, but this was a thousand times worse than I ever could have imagined. Within all of the YA books I've read, things get steamy, but it's normally not very descriptive whereas here, it is WAY too descriptive for my comfort. I honestly found myself to be skimming through so much of the book because it was just too much for me. In all honesty, my rating definitley would be 5 stars if it weren't for all the steaminess because it ruined many of the romantic scenes for me. 
 Overall, the book was enjoyable but it would have to have been a YA with much less obvious twists for me to really love it.
