"This time, I'm not leaving anything to chance because we may have been fate, but it's up to us to create our destiny."
I'm so sorry I didn't love this book more. I know it deserves a lot more love but tbh it just didn't get to me like I expected. After loving Ethan's book so much I had high expectations for Hutton's book. However, that's the thing with expectations, sometimes it's hard to meet them.
"You're the fairy-tale ending I wish I could have."
Nevertheless I enjoyed reading this fairy-tale lovestory. Hutton is as selfless as his older brother, and if an Everest brother falls in love he falls fast, deep and endless. And with Ally he found his match. She challenges and completes him at the same time.
"If our relationship is doomed to go up in flames, we might as well be the ones who start the fire."
Ally is a lovely heroine. Her soul is split between her upbringing and what she's supposed to believe and live by and between who she really is and wants to be. Falling in love with Hutton only made the battle between these opposites worse. But he stands by her side and together they fight against those obstacles with ease.
"Hutton Everest is a bright knight in my dark nights."
What I didn't like about the book was that everything seemed to go too smooth. I missed something that was really gripping me. And the end felt rushed to me, I wish there were some more explaining of how things ended up and why.
I don't know what it was that made me feel a little distant towards Ally and Hutton even though they are both very charismatic and lovable. I guess it's just me. So please, if you want to meet both and the blurb intrigues you, don't hold back and give Hutton and Ally a chance.
"The broken pieces of my spirit are collected in his embracing love, and my soul feels right again."
Bad Raputation is a lovely modern fairy-tale where the princess found her prince charming, learning that being bad together only makes the world brighter, more interesting and definitely hot as hell.
