TW: sexual harassment, absentee parent, loss of a loved one, grief

I loved how this one ended and now I’m really excited to catch up with them in The Legacy!

I think most of her reactions were understandable and honestly, I probably would’ve done and said a lot of the same things as her. I’ve seen a lot of reviews calling Sabrina a drama queen or insecure and I think to a certain degree, those things are true but, I also think that unless you’ve lived in her situation then you probably don’t know how you would react either. Honestly, it was a bit boring in the first half because I felt like I’d just read everything that had just happened since it follows the same timeline as Dean’s book ( The Score), but I really enjoyed the second half and seeing Tucker and Sabrina trying to figure out how they would survive, especially with her going through law school and him not totally knowing where his career was headed. He was absolutely the good guy throughout the whole book which is a nice change of pace from a lot of other love interests we see in New Adult novels. Tucker might have to be my favourite of all the Off-Campus men that we got to read from. I really enjoyed Tucker and Sabrina together, even though we didn’t actually get to see them together on the page as often as with the other couples throughout their own books. TW: past sexual assault (mc), childhood trauma (mc and love interest), abusive parents, parent being abused (witnessed by love interest), emotional abuse, physical abuse, roofing a drink (past, discussed in book) I had a really positive experience reading this so it has me really excited to read book 2! I really appreciated his character development and how he reacted to Hannah and helped her throughout the book, and in turn how she helped him. This was genuinely my favourite read through this time and I’m so glad about that! This was cheesy and had some darker moments (check TWs) but I really enjoyed it overall! I really liked Hannah and Garrett’s story, though it definitely took me until around the halfway point to actually start liking Garrett as a character (also what an awful name, who names someone Garrett? No offence to the Garrattes of the world).

I’ve now read this book 3 times because that’s how many times I’ve told myself I’m going to actually go through with it and fully read this series! We’ll see if that happens this time or not… 😂
