Review<\/b><\/h4>\n

4 stars!<\/b><\/p>\n

The third and final book in the Raleigh Rebels<\/i> series, this book took me on a rollercoaster of emotions! From the breath-taking beginning, through heartache, shocks, drama, laughs, and heart-clenching, super-sexy romance, I was captivated, and this book finishes off Alex and Silver\u2019s story beautifully.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen will we have given enough? When will we have lost enough? There\u2019s no one out there, keeping track of how much pain we\u2019re dealt\u2026how much we\u2019re asked to bear\u2026and that\u2019s the most terrifying thing, Silver.
\n\u2018Cause if there\u2019s no one keeping track\u2026<\/i>
\n\u2026then there\u2019s no one out there to make it stop.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Just when you think that Alex and Silver have gone through everything they could possibly go through\u2026 it gets worse. And the beginning of this book shattered me as they truly hit rock bottom. It\u2019s heartwrenching, and I was reading with a sense of disbelief as once again, they are dealing with the unimaginable. But, deal with it, they do, and through it they emerge a little bit broken but still strong, which is just as well, because life hasn\u2019t finished with the hits just yet.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re both so bruised and battered that it feels as though we\u2019re both going to try and support the other, only to break and unintentionally let them fall.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The high school drama continues as evil from the past comes back to confront them once again. And OMG, when will it end? I shudder to think that this book has aspects of reality because\u2026 damn. Alex and Silver are forced to face corruptness, betrayal and downright evil, and it creates a wild ride that will take all the strength they have to overcome.<\/p>\n

But in the middle of it all, we have this absolutely incredible love story. The connection that Alex and Silver share is the cornerstone to this entire trilogy, and their love for each other is so, so, beautiful to see. And though they may be high school students, there is nothing YA about their relationship which is intense, passionate, and super steamy, which begs the question\u2026 are 17 year olds really having sex like this? I don\u2019t know, but their incredible physical connection is an extension of everything that they feel for each other, and there is no doubting the intensity of their love.<\/p>\n

I love him so fucking much, every small, beautiful, broken, incredible part of him.<\/i><\/p>\n

She\u2019s the answer to ever single question I\u2019ve ever fucking asked.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Silver and Alex have both come a long way since this series began, and this book sees them dealing with their demons (old and new) and coming out the other side, preparing for a future together that will bring the happiness and stability that they both crave.<\/p>\n

Side characters again play a big part, and once again Silver\u2019s Dad, Cameron, absolutely shines. His support of his daughter and his relationship with Alex are an absolute highlight, and friendships old and new (including some very welcome cameos from Callie\u2019s other series) create fantastic depth and great dynamics to the story.<\/p>\n

I look wholesome, the same way Dr. Romera does. Our men both look like they just got spat out of hell because even the halls of the damned couldn\u2019t contain them.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Through highs and lows, twists and shocks, drama and extreme emotion, Alex and Silver\u2019s story is an unforgettable ride that shows the beauty and healing power of true love. It hurt at times, and had its moments of unreality, but their love story is beautiful and I have loved watching them on their journey.<\/p>\n

4 stars.<\/p>\n
