This series has been one of my favorite discoveries of 2020. I am 100% involved in the outcome of the mysteries that are unfolding and these characters. In the first book, I was worried about the age of the characters but this definitely did not hinder the story. The author was masterful in being able to hone in on the happenings of High School while also making the characters not be TOO immature or mature. I think she is able to do that because of the background of what these characters have been through, and are also currently experiencing, due to what Rogue really is in all of their lives.

The book picks up where the last one left off, and my heart hurt. I felt the emotions in every one of these characters. I loved watching Cy and Saylor grow within their relationship. Again, there were times I completely forgot their age until something in their life environment reminded me of it. The book continues with the mysteries and so many questions are answered. However, just when one mystery is solved another one springs up. There were a couple of them at the end of this book that definitely paved the way for the next book in the series that will star a new main character. I am 100% on board for that book.

My only real complaint was that even though the book paved the way for what is coming, it was just a meh way, in my opinion, to end the duet of Cy and Saylor. I am sure they will be seen again in the future and I hope when they are that I get a better look into their future. Plus side, I loved getting to see a few chapters from Matt's point of view, especially, since he has been so instrumental in this whole story.

Holy wow, okay. My #MNGirl picks up where we left off in #MNGirl and it does not let up at all. Ciaran, Silas, Kai, and the rest of the crew are left reeling with the tragedy that just unfolded, and no one more so than Saylor. But that girl? She’s a survivor. A fighter. Her world got turned upside down, in the worst way, and yet, she finds a way to put one foot in front of the other... and who do they take her to?

Ciaran, of course.

Ci steps up in a huge way in the book not only for Rogue, but especially for Say. There’s so much more action happening and there are threats circling them, but he puts Saylor first, making sure his girl has what she needs. He takes care of her, protects her, and loves her so fiercely. We really see how solid the relationship is between these two and that they are truly endgame.

AM Brooks did another fantastic job of delving deeper into the twisted web of Rogue and this world. I fell more in love with the Midwest Boys, with Saylor, and even Matt and Jason. She takes you through an emotional wringer and does so in beautiful fashion.

I will say, though, that this book did rather abruptly. I had a moment of checking to make sure I had all my chapters and wasn’t missing anything, it was that abrupt. We get so many answers in this book, but we’re still left with plenty of questions as we get ready for #SummerGirl. I am still super excited about this series and can’t wait to read more about Silas and Kai!

4*
Saylor & Ciaran are still finding their way but tragedy is in store for her along with some hard decisions. Lots of twists & secrets unravelling, things not as expected with this installment.
I'm eagerly awaiting the next installment.

I was given this ARC for a honest review and I am grateful for the opportunity to read this series by A. M. Brooks. MY#MNGirl picks up right where #MNGirl left off with Ciaran and Saylor learning to trust and love each other with all the intense events and tragedies all around them. It was fun to watch the comradery amongst the four friends once Kai and Silas excepted Saylor, even becoming protective of her. There was suspense, intrege, adventure, romance and sex, what more could you want in a book. Two new characters were introduced in this book which made the intrgue all the more interesting and left you wondering where these characters will fit into the next book. There were some disclosures at the end of the book that had you taking a breath and saying, "WOW". My#MNGirl was very well written, kept you engaged throughout and like the first book left you out on a cliff hanging, wanting more and waiting for the third book to arrive.

Copy received from The Next Step PR and I am reviewing it voluntarily and objectively.

My #MNGirl is the sequel and ending to Ciaran and Saylor’s story. Which is unfortunate because these two warm my heart so much, but I do look forward to what the author gives us next in this wonderful series.

While a great book, I didn’t find this one as enjoyable as #MNGirl. I suppose because Saylor and Ciaran are together now, so there’s no angst and building storyline; just cuteness. On this note though, the author does a fantastic job with these two. I find they have just enough heat between the two of them to satisfy a reader within the sex scenes, but not enough to be considered erotica, which really wouldn’t fit with the other genres. Ciaran’s protectiveness of her is just perfect, and they challenge each other and engage with one another in ways that work for them. Saylor isn’t a Mary Sue by any means. Ciaran is protective, but not annoying. He lets her do things, and keeps a lot of his protective thoughts internal. Really, can there be a more perfect romance couple?

This one involves Saylor finding a new normal, Ciaran continuing his building work with Rogue, and them figuring out how to navigate a relationship within it all.

All in all, a great book and I am eager for #SummerGirl.

Loved My #MNGirl! Angst, suspense, adventure! Has it all! Although It felt like we aren’t done with Saylor and Ciarans story, so was bummed about that. It is beautifully written and they have some serious chemistry 🔥 I can’t wait for #SummerGirl

Woh woh woh…hold on a damn minute! 
I am not a happy girl right now.
I know I sound like a brat but I didn’t expect it to end on such a massive cliffhanger ok?

But besides that, My #MNGirl by A.M. Brooks is ❤️🔥(There are moments in life when only emojis can express what I’m feeling).

My #MNGirl was such a page turner. I didn’t realise that I was already at the end of the book until that cliffhanger …I may have screamed my frustration.
This book is suspenseful, absolutely thrilling and yes, it is sexy. There is no doubt that the chemistry between the characters are off the charts hot. It was also so adventurous and was filled with so much suspense and mystery…I was loving each and every moment of it.

I cannot wait to read more.

FYI…that cover model though 😍

This book was one of my highly anticipated sequels and I was not disappointed in the least.

Picking up directly where #MNGirl leaves off, we are thrown right back into the pain of the ending of that book. Saylor is reeling from the devastating news. Not only that, but she is still coming to terms with the strong feelings she has for Ciaran after he was so mean to her, publicly and privately.

Ultimately, the relationship is strong between the two and it is so beautiful. We get so much in this book. More Rogue, more Ciaran and Saylor, and much more action. Now, dead bodies are showing up, carved with messages for Rogue. And new bits of important information are introduced when Saylor has to travel back home New York.

This was such a great conclusion of Saylor and Ciaran's story. And, while there are some questions answered in this one, so many more are asked, leaving me on the edge of my seat as I wait for what comes next.

A.M Brooks does it again! I have been so excited about this book release!! Book 1 #MN Girl was absolutely amazing but this one TOPS that one!! This one picks up right where book 1 left off at the heart wrenching ending!!

This book has so much action and betrayal and twists and turns I couldn’t put it down!!
And what Saylor has to go through and put up with she is amazing! And Ciaran I am so glad we got more POV from him he really stepped up this book!! I am so glad they are PERFECT together!

And that ending NOOOOOO!!!!! I have so many questions that need answers!! I am sad this is the ending of Saylor’s and Ciaran’s story but I am so excited for #Summergirl!! I need more of the Midwest boys!!!

My #MNGirl picks up right after that the wild cliffhanger in book 1 and as the reader you are instantly thrown back into the fray. There are even more explosive revelations and plot twist than before. This is a fast paced emotional world wind that grips you from beginning to end. The story is filled with strong and determined characters.

Saylor’s devastation and Ciaran utter helplessness bleeds through in the first half of this story. As Saylor begins to pull away and lock down emotionally, Ciaran works at building a new relationship with Say. All his the past grievances he committed in book one are back to haunt him. The Midwest boys are there to hold Say up when she wants to crumble, they are her life lines this time around, and she provides a new vulnerability to the group.

Say and Ci’s relationship intensifies, these two never lack in the hotness factor. While at the same time they are facing the uncertainty of what the future holds. Ci’s over protective and possessive nature is ramped up to a whole new level.

My #MNGirl is layered in intrigue, suspense and just the right amount of steam. It is a gripping and tantalizing follow-up and I am excited for more.
