Tryst Six Venom

Product Information

But even though I loved this book, I'm completely unsatisfied too. Why? Because I need more. I need a book for each and every single one of Liv's bothers. Particularly Macon and Dallas. Like I would DIE for their book. I need it BAD. The bully aspect was masterfully crafted. The angst was emotional, but I just couldnt vibe with the romance. I know it’s strange that I’m praising Clay & Liv, yet seemingly complaining about their relationship. Idk how else to explain it. I think I’m just not fully on board with this being FF. Does that make me a bad person?? 🙈 I think I can conclude that it’s just not my preference (still). Liv Jaeger has been a bloody nuisance since the day I met her, but sometimes I’m not even sure what bugs me so much about her. She stays in her lane, doesn’t she? But I love pushing her. I love it like nothing else.”

It took me quite some time to warm up to Clay, because she's mean and pretty unlikeable at the beginning. Clay is not exactly the most likable person, but she's such a complex character that I even when I was frustrated w her, I felt bad for her too, because I knew every demeaning, insulting word she threw at Olivia was her way of coping w her own sexuality. This girl had issues and she had no one to talk besides Olivia. I could even be mad at her for all the homophobic things she said to Olivia, cause the internalised homophobia is accurate from what I gathered...Also, PD does occasionally shade on abortion which I find very strange. They did this in Rival too. In this book, Clay's parents are not getting along, partly because they've both been enduring the grief of losing their son, but both Clay and her dad get mad at her mother for having an abortion recently, because her dad wanted a baby after losing their son and felt having a baby could fix their marriage. You cannot possibly be mad at someone for not wanting to give birth at such a difficult time of their life, especially when the dad had been consistently cheating on Clay's mother. And it was crazy that they saw having the baby as a replacement for their son. And I reach out and touch her face. Clay. I smooth out the lines of worry and anger. The fighting and the hurt. I wipe away her tears with my thumb, feeling her warm skin and how she’s the softest thing I’ve ever touched. I was going to attempt and read more of this, but I realized the more I read, the more bored and frustrated I got. The whole mentality and thinking of "I hate them but I love them so I'm going to make their life a living hell" isn't my thing. But if that is your thing then I'm sure you'll like this one. Virginity is a concept invented by people to make women feel worthless for having sex.” I raise my eyebrows matter-of-factly. “You want to protect something. Protect your credit score. That’ll come in a lot handier someday.”

I have read quite a few MM books to this day and I really liked them, but I never thought I would wait so long to read FF book... and that being said - NEVER SAY NEVER because if there is anyone who can make it happen, it's Penelope Douglas !!! 🔥🔥🔥 My least fave Clay (bully) moment - when she criticised Liv’s body by writing hurtful (and untrue) words on it with a sharpie. i absolutely loved this book! if you liked PD’s Fall Away series, i think you’ll definitely love this one. it has a similar writing/tone as her older books and those are some of my all time favorites of hers. i’m really hoping to see more stories from the side characters in future books!!

Now, with Falling Away, I just said screw it. Even though BULLY was my favorite to write, because I was free of fear with that one, Falling Away is my favorite book. I will read every review, because no one can tell me anything that will make me feel bad about this story. I am who I am, I write how I write, and I'm proud of myself, no matter what anyone says ;) That being said by the end of the book I was completely in love with their relationship and I did not want the book to end. The romance was PERFECT!! The epilogue did make me SOB because Clay and Olivia truly are soulmates. Tears fills my eyes. She’s such a cunt, but then she says things like that and I just want to give her everything she wants. I want her to know that I wish to God this didn’t feel so good and that she didn’t feel so good.’
