It also doesn't hurt that they're each dangerously sexy. But when everything in my life starts to go sideways, I have serious second thoughts about this whole thing. Can I survive secrets, betrayal, and uncovered prophecies that change everything I thought I ever knew? Will this team still have my back when life as I knew it shatters around me and the truth is finally revealed? I'm about to find out. Recommended for readers 18+
