I loved the entire series ... the more the books progress the better they get...

Book 1
This book has cheating and I loved it. I'm starting by saying this because I read some maddening reviews saying: "I like this story, but there was cheating, so I'm giving it one star because I don't approve of cheating."
O.o
For me this is like saying you give a mystery you enjoyed one star because there was a murder and you don't approve murders. Hello? Reading and enjoying a story about cheating has nothing to do with your moral standing on the subject... it's either a good story or not. Sorry for the rant, it was just to say that if cheating is a pet peeve of yours skip this book, but don't give it one star because of it.

That said... The confusion and turmoil that came from a love triangle with "the best friend" were so real... Already a love triangle is complicated, but when you add a friendship of decades in the mix things get explosive... I loved how we got all the prospectives in the book with different POVs.

Yeah, Tyler was immature and too indecisive. And Rose made her fair share of mistakes, but by the end of the book I couldn't help liking her and the growth she experienced...

Also the story totally didn't end how you'd expect.

And now to the best part: Ethan! Yet another dishy book boyfriend.... He was dashing, hot, sexy, and just the right amount of alpha!

Book 2

A friends to lovers love triangle with no cheating. This book was everything! The characters and emotions felt so real... I loved following the story from both Jack and Alice's POV.
Alice has had feelings for Jack since freshman year, but she's been stuck in the friend zone ever since. And if you've ever been "in the zone" you know how hard it is to watch your friend date... and how easy you wish each and every one of his reationships won't last... This is Alice for the past two years! But now she's just been dumped and Tyler had just dumped his latest fling so she's determined to not let another day go by without confessing her feelings to Jack. The only problem is she doesn't realize how scarred Jack is from another friendship-turned-relationship gone wrong... and so a series of epic misunderstandings begins... And they all felt very real... My eyes were glued to the pages I had to know what would happen next! The story kept evolving with so many twists and plot turns I hadn't seen coming, but the ending was SO satisfying... Also halfway through the new leading love story for the next book in the series is introduced and I must say I can't wait to read it.

I found this book in the friends to lovers lists and since I already liked the author I gave it a try. Seeing the author's review I found out you can get it for free via the author's newsletter signing up here: http://www.camillaisley.com/freebie

Book 3

With this book I most definitely fell in love with David... he's the ultimate bad-boy-not-so-bad-underneath.... The masquerade I hadn't seen coming and how I wish I could turn into a book character and be Haley for that night!!

The ending had me screaming, "Nooooo, noooooo, noooooooooooo...." but my heart is still beating only because I know there's another book and I can't wait ...

On the female side, Madison is just too adorable ... I hope something good will come her way.

I love how strong the friendships in this book are, and I also love that is a fresh New Adult novel with no previously-abused-characters/alcohol/drugs/tattooed-fighter-types etc... and all the depressing tropes that seem to appear in most books in the genre. This one is all about love and friendship...

Book 4

Oh, how i loved this book. First of all it opens with my favorite character: DAVID! Yeas! Even if he's suffering... I loved him in every state, when he was trying to be douche because he was hurt, when he got mad, when he got impossibly gentle or impossibly hot... He's the perfect example of a three-dimensional character with flaws that make you love him only more...

Now, that scene by the fireplace. OMG, I was melting! This is a squeaky clean romance, but the way the author manages to convey such passion without revealing much... gosh it was all tension and emotions... I just couldn't put this book down!

I loved how all the other stories wrapped up, too. We get glimpses of characters from previous books and it was great to follow Jack and Alice's evolving relationship, you know, to see a couple beyond the veil of the moment they get together...

I could stay with these characters forever...
