February 2026 Re-Read: The male main character living in the Trump Tower in Chicago did not age well... The characters do not make any specific comments about Trump. Just the mention of the character living in the Trump Tower in Chicago. Book published in 2014.
January 2016: Although I love the story and the characters, this really should not have been divided up into six books of only 50 pages. This really could have been just one book.
The title immediately captured my curiosity, and the narrative held my attention from start to finish, weaving together a tantalizing blend of spice, a compelling workplaceâcrime mystery, and a heartfelt journey of selfâprioritisation and romanceâplus bonus points for the female lead, who is an absolute character with the funniest, most memorable personality!
Thank you Adriana Anders, Hachette Audio, and NetGalley for the early listen! thoroughly enjoyed! Iâm delighted to share an honest ARC review.

âLightsâŻOutâ sits in my topâfive, which made the bar so high for book 2. I'm not a writer and I can't ignore Navessa's talent. Still, I kept stumbling over the characters in âCaught Up.â I just couldn't click with them. Maybe if the story leaned more into the rich backstory between the main guy and girl, instead of those particular scenes, I'd have felt a stronger connection?Â
I was initially a bit disoriented, feeling like I'd been dropped into the middle of a story in progress, but once I connected with the characters and the narrative, everything clickedâthe audio narration was flawless, and the experience left me thoroughly engaged. I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
The angst, the yearning, the nuanced mental-health representation, and that profound love completely swept me up, and I genuinely couldn't put this book down. Bennet Reiner wrecked me in the best way, and all I wanted was to reach into the pages and hug him for everything he carried. I'm honestly so grateful for this story and the emotional punch it delivered. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
The male narrator's perspective completely derailed my experience, and Felixâonce a champion of my sideâcrossed the line at roughly the 80âŻpercent mark, devolving into a toxic, belittling force toward Molly; what began as solid support abruptly turned into a bewildering, âWTF?â moment that left me questioning the entire narrative and removing a whole star!
