Screaming insanity ♥️🔥

So I Love and Hate this book at the same time... That's how complex this book is. There are multiple layers of plots going on that intertwine perfectly, but also make it hard for me to figure out what is going on. I love it because it is dark, gritty, and consuming. The characters are well developed and complex. Their motives are hidden which make them interesting and unique. This also makes me hate them because I can't figure them out. They are part of a "gang" potentially Screaming insanity ♥️🔥

So I Love and Hate this book at the same time... That's how complex this book is. There are multiple layers of plots going on that intertwine perfectly, but also make it hard for me to figure out what is going on. I love it because it is dark, gritty, and consuming. The characters are well developed and complex. Their motives are hidden which make them interesting and unique. This also makes me hate them because I can't figure them out. They are part of a "gang" potentially or at least have ties. But they are also in college... Instagram models and have promising futures as a fitness trainer, MMA fighter and potential pianist. They are tough, but not really hardened.... Except maybe Archer. He's the least crackable. Steele seems the quiet, sensitive one while Kody is the flirty, funny one. This of course leaves Archer as the alpha dominant one... But what is his layer? He is the unknown. There are so many things we don't know about them... How they became such close friends, their deal with Zane, did they set her up? Why is Archer so angry with her from the start? Then outside of them there is Bri's weird behavior. Who is her stalker? What part does her father have to play? I feel he is pretty evil Mastermind and that there is more going on with him and his power moves. Who truly killed her mom? And again... What is Archer's problem with her??? Madison Kate is damaged. Even before the infinite Riot night she is framed for she seemed lost, bored with her life and searching for things to fill the void so she didn't have to deal with things. Her hate in the beginning is justified. But as the story continues she clings to it. She even admits she isn't ready to let it go. Classic trauma/survival behavior. She does not have safe or healthy relationships. Her friend does not seem to truly care for her and it's a friendship of convience... But I also feel Bri has a secret and may be against MK.... Something shady is going on there. So in recap... Be prepared to not want to stop reading. Be prepared for a wild ride. Be prepared for some hot chemistry. But ultimately be prepared to have your heart ripped out at the end.... I need some answers. I know it isn't what she thinks... So I need to know!!! Intense heart rate increase at the end. Seriously...is it July yet? ...more

THIS BOOK IS 👌👌👌!
I got an ARC copy of this book, and this book may or may not contain a name from my family.. 😅 *Full disclosure- I am friends with Tate James*

Putting that aside, this book demands to be read. It’s hot! Omg is it hot! The guys in this book are delicious. They are buff and protective but also there’s a lot of bully romance which I find seriously sexy. It ends on a real cliffhanger- I won’t go into detail cause spoilers.

Do yourself a favour and read this book! Get lost in Maddison ...more
