In a novella-length story, there wouldn’t be enough page time to question why he was super obsessed with this girl he saw for like five minutes. Miles–or Oz, as Mallory calls him after their first meeting–is a sociopath. For the next five years, he basically orchestrates every aspect of her life so that eventually she will meet him and he can claim her. He falls hard for her and decides she will be his. When Miles, our hero, spots Mallory, she’s seventeen and kicking ass at a high school math competition. Some of their novellas have worked really well for me, and some of them haven’t, so I was curious about what would happen if I read their first attempt at a novel.

Their specialty is over-the-top insta love and alpha males. Because I sure didn’t.Īlexa Riley is the writing pen name for a couple of women who are hilarious and awesome to follow on Twitter. You won’t like it.” And, again, she would have been right. And I’m sure that, if she’d looked at the blurb for this book, she’d have said, “Don’t do it, Shannon.

Somewhere in that Twitter exchange, she said, “Well, duh, of course I’m not going to rec you any Harlequin Presents.

Sure, but I'm also not one to care if I'm completely honest and I still found it pretty cute. We're the time jumps meant to ALL be from the end of the last epilogue? Due to the information in them I'm guessing so, but then why weren't they all timed from the last chapter and not the epilogue? I don't know why I'm struggling with this so hard but I CANNOT get it out of my head! Anyway, I also thought some things Spoiler the baseball throwing and the encounter with his father (I expected so much more) could maybe have been taken out and it wouldn't quite matter, I also didn't really care about the scenes with his mother, but that was just because she seemed to have huge paragraphs of talking about her past and stuff and I couldn't seem to care because we didn't really know her? Maybe I'm a black hearted bitch, but whatever. I really really loved it, BUT I also hate multiple epilogues and they confused me. I would say the majority of this book was 5 stars to me, in fact in the end it's probably 4.5 stars overall.
