⁺₊★�.´🎧✩°。 0:56 ──♡───── 3:32 ⁺₊🎧★�.·´

🎶 Now I'm gone, but you're still layin'. Next to me, one degree of separation 🎶

To them, Harper (h) nothing more than the spoiled princess who ruined their season when her ex, Jake, bailed to another team. But she's not the princess they think she is. Raised from nothing, she clawed her way to where she is, and she won’t let these three men bring her to her knees.

─── � 。゚�: THOUGHTS*.� .*:☆゚. ───

[Silas]

“I’ve been tiptoeing around here but it doesn’t matter if I do that or scream the place down. Your opinion of me won’t change. I’m done pretending I don’t exist for your comfort. Kick me out if you want. Until you do, though, I’m existing in this fucking house that I’m paying rent for.� I pulled the envelope of cash out of my purse and started counting out bills. “How much?�


At first, Silas is not a likable guy . I’m talking, he’s really rough around the edges. He straight-up calls her a gold digger without knowing anything about her life and even tries to kick her out. Like, this dude literally could not care less if she ended up homeless. He was just focused on getting her out of his space, no questions asked. But, here’s the thing—he does grow on you. By the end, he’s actually surprisingly sweet. Well as sweet as he can be, he is just Silas. He takes her to see her brothers, which is a huge gesture, and offers her emotional support. I know, it's not exactly groundbreaking, but it’s something. Honestly, even though it's just the bare minimum, it counts. He pulled over on the side of the road to let her cry because she was so overwhelmed after seeing her brothers. And then, there's this scene when Silas’s family finds them in bed together, and Silas is just passed out and won’t wake up. The whole situation was so funny.I LOVE HIM OKAY.

[Dylan]

“I am so sorry. I should’ve knocked. I thought I heard you call my name and I thought you might be sick so I just barged in. I am incredibly sorry, Dylan.�


“No, I’m sorry. I don’t� Normally, I� Jesus. This is embarrassing.�


“Don’t be embarrassed.�


“You just heard me calling your name while jacking off, Harper. I’m pretty sure that’s harassment or something. I’m sure I just made you uncomfortable and I’m sorry for that.�


Okay, hold up—they did it on the kitchen island. OOP! The wild part? Silas is obsessed with cleanliness and order. Dude’s basically a neat freak, but when it came to being with her, he didn’t care at all. I know that’s right! He threw all his usual rules out the window for her, and honestly, I was kind of here for it. Before all that drama, Dylan just wanted to stay out of it. He didn’t like her, but he wasn’t as cruel as Silas. He just wanted her out of his space, nothing personal. But once he realized he misjudged her, he felt bad—and he should have. I mean, he had no reason to treat her like that when he didn’t even know her. So when she yelled at him and the others, I'm honestly glad he felt that regret. It was deserved. Dylan’s the kind of guy who feels responsible for everyone around him, and he definitely showed that with Harper . When she needed a hug because she missed her brothers, he was there. You could tell he was down bad for her. I mean, this man was out here pleasing himself and saying her name. BARK. But then... the mess. He’s the one who drafted that message that got her ridiculed for being with them. It was an accident, but Dylan, come on! He had one job—not to send it. I’m sure he was absolutely sick to his stomach when he realized he was the one who caused her that pain. He must’ve been feeling SICKKKKKKK after that.

[Carter]

“Why are you sorry? You’re not a slut. We all know you lost your virginity to Jake. Even if you hadn’t, sleeping with people you’re attracted to doesn’t make you a slut. You’re just living your life, Harper. I’m sorry if I made you feel like I thought you were anything other than fucking great. I was just pissed. At Silas and Dylan. Not because anyone did anything wrong but because I’m jealous and that’s not something I handle very well.�


GIRL. He was jealous of Silas and Dylan, especially because they’d been with her and he hadn’t. So what does he do? He goes to the library and totally ate up that scene . He came in standing on business, and got exactly what he wanted. I respect it, honestly. He used his money and privilege to get her brothers out of prison. He did it selfishly, but for her happiness. She wasn’t talking to anyone and was in a funk after ending things with him, Silas, and Dylan, and he just had to do something to help her. TOO GOOD . And when she decided to go to campus alone and start moving forward with her life, he wasn’t having it. He came to protect her, defended her, and made sure those guys were done—he finished them off! As he should, because he’s a protector, and he doesn’t care about using his privilege to make life easier for her. Now, the part where he gets hurt? She’s worried, wants to check on him, but then realizes she’s mad at him—TEARS. And when he calls her “baby�? OOF. YES.

[All]

“The way he was looking at her last night? I almost want to say do it.�


“He needs to know that he’s lost in every way.�


“We can’t send it.�


BOYS. Okay, the first thing she says after taking that picture with Silas, Dylan, and Carter is that she wouldn’t want anyone to see it—and they still wanted to share it with her ex. WHY, GUYS, WHY! They didn’t listen to her at all, and then they’re sitting there wondering why it took so long for her to even consider taking them back. GIRL, I would’ve been pissed off too! Like, come on! But—thankfully—their saving grace was getting her brother out of prison. Like, those are her favorite people in the world, and she got them back in her life. OMG, that was such a sweet moment. I won’t even lie, that was like the redemption arc I didn’t know I needed. Honestly, this book ate up. It was so much fun, and I loved watching the dynamic between them shift. They were majorly rude to her at the start, but then they gradually softened up. I do hate that it took her yelling at them about her childhood for them to realize they misjudged her, but hey, a win is a win. The growth was real, and I’m here for it.

─── � 。゚�: OVERALL*.� .*:☆゚. ───

LISTEN. It was so fun. Like, yes, these boys were straight-up menaces to society at first—mean and completely out of pocket—but honestly, once she gave them a little taste of their own medicine, she shut them up real quick. And let me tell you, they bowed down fast. The moment she started helping them with the plays and getting more involved in their lives, they were all about her. It was like a complete switch, and I loved it!!!
