New York Times bestselling author Elle Kennedy brings her signature angst, drama, and humour to a new standalone romance. When nineteen-year-old Abbey Bly gets the opportunity to study abroad for a year in London, it's the perfect chance to finally slip out from under the thumb of her beloved but overbearing retired rock star father. She's ready to be free, to discover herself - but first off, to meet the girls she's rooming with. That is, until she arrives at her gorgeous new flat to discover those roommates are actually all boys. Charming, funny, insufferably attractive boys. And off-limits, with a rule against fraternizing between housemates after unwanted drama with the previous girl. Abbey has never considered herself a rulebreaker. But soon, she's lying to her father about her living situation and falling for not one, but two men she can't have: her rugby-player roommate and a broody musician with a girlfriend. Not to mention, her research for school has gotten her tangled in a deeply hidden scandal of a high nobility family, surrounding her in secrets on all sides. If there's any hope of Abbey finding love, answers, or a future in London, she'll have to decide which rules - and hearts - might be worth breaking . . .

Your rating:
4.5/5 or 8.43/10
Characters-8
I know that the characters in this book made a lot of mistakes, but I found them fun. I think they're very much the vibes of being in your early 20's and learning about life while making mistakes. I also loved the Found Family elements.
Atmosphere-9
I did like the road trips, and how you got to see Student life in London. I just wish we could have seen more London landmarks.
Writing-9
This was my first book from the author and I enjoyed the writing. I felt the writing style was a strong point of this story.
Plot-8
I liked the plot of this one. Love Triangles aren't my favorite trope, and most of the time they don't work for me. I enjoyed the romance in this at the end of the day. I preferred to follow the mystery element and the friendships in this story to the romances.
Intrigue-8
For the most part, despite the romances not being my favorite, I was intrigued by this book. I really liked how things came together in the end.
Logic-8
I understood most of the logic of this. I just wished that some things, and characters actions were explained better.
Enojyment-8
This was fun. I had a better time with it than I thought, and I will still read more from the author.
