About this deal

At this po I was sad that this is the last of Will and Lake, but then again, I’m actually content with the ending.

I have completely fallen in love with all of them and have to remind myself that they aren’t real people. I think most of us would love to see more of Will and Lake as a settled married…but still very young…couple. The story of Will and Lake is amazing, but the part that solidified the Slammed series as my favorite was when Will goes to grab the cd from Lake’s car, hoping it’s not Nickleback. Even though it had been a while since I read the first two, getting into the story was as easy as slipping on a pair of house shoes… Darth Vader house shoes! Switching between Lily’s and Atlas’s viewpoints, ISWU navigates life post-divorce, second chances at love, and so much more.I thought I was fine at the time, but, writing this a couple years later, I feel that I was not ready for it then, nor am I ready for it now; they took away my innocence a lot. It is a Mature Adult book with complex themes, including tragedy, grief, drugs, and alcohol, as well as romantic content. But once I got inside Will’s head, I understood the troubles and the excruciating conflicts that he went through, because he also knew it was wrong. Liora Picker of the Daily Targum indicates that this is likely intentional, and that Hoover uses abuse as a source of tension and conflict within the relationship: “Romance saturated with adrenaline has a high entertainment value and thus draws readers in and creates success for an author. He terrifies her and captivates her all in the span of one encounter, and something about the way he makes her feel sparks buried memories from a past she wishes could just stay buried.

Their future rests on how well they deal with the past in this final installment of the beloved Slammed series. And unfortunately for Daniel, finding Cinderella threatens their happily ever after, rather than assuring it. There are some surprises that I kept on uncovering as I read through the book and it keeps me on my toes and doesn’t give me a feeling that there’s nothing much to the story and that this book never made me want to just stop reading cause I know that there’s more surprises to come.I think we’ve outgrown boys pulling on pigtails and ’80s protagonists who kidnap and harass their love interests until they reciprocate. The novel itself is loosely based on CoHo’s parents and doesn’t shy away from conversations about sexual assault and domestic abuse. Everyone in her daughter’s life is determined to shut Kenna out, no matter how hard she works to prove herself.

Unless you were an avid romance reader, you might not have known the name Colleen Hoover before 2021. If I took every romantic poem, every book, every song, and every movie I've ever read, heard or seen and extracted the breathtaking moments, somehow bottling them up, they would pale in comparison to this moment. While some reviewers think this novel lacked a certain edge, others rave about the book, saying it was a “beautiful” story that tugged at their heartstrings.

After finally caving to his unwavering pursuit, Sky soon finds that Holder isn’t at all who he’s been claiming to be. Until one day Fallon becomes unsure if Ben has been telling her the truth or fabricating a perfect reality for the sake of the ultimate plot twist.
