Why it's good: A masterclass at the slow backstory reveal. A little too good at portraying friendship heartbreak.

Summary
When a car accident claims the lives of her parents, Jude Duarte and her twin sister Taryn—both omegas—are swept away by their half-sister's father and raised among the alpha upper crust of society. It sounds like something out of a fairytale. It is a nightmare.
Years later, after graduating at the top of her class from an exclusive, formerly alpha-only private school, Jude bumps into her nemesis at a party in the Hamptons and is mistakenly taken along when he's abducted for ransom. Now trapped together in a tiny cell, Jude and Cardan Greenbriar must get along in order to escape their kidnappers or face the consequences: injury, death, or whatever happens when Jude goes without suppressants for over two days.

Summary
Since being dumped by Eddie, Iris does not have time for any romantic complications in her life. So it seems a perfect solution to start a casual, no-strings-attached thing with Barry Allen, secret sex god from high school, especially since everyone knows he's in love with another girl on campus.
Seriously, there's no way this is going to get complicated.

telling myself this is hidden because it's being turned into a published book. The only reality I will accept
