Colleen Hoover is by far one the most buzz author that I have heard when it comes to New Adult Romance. This is my first Colleen Hoover book and it didn't disappoint.

⭐️ My rating: Loved It ⭐️

Raw, emotional and powerful. Binge worthy. I can’t believe I waited so long to read this one. TW: rape, domestic abuse
I can’t wait until October to read about Atlas’ story.
