Habits by Anna B. Doe - Review

Habits by Anna B. Doe

Senior year.

Three girls. Three guys.

Secrets and lies.

Demons of past and present.

Old insecurities and new fears.

One more year left to pretend.

One more year to wreck it all.

The countdown begins.

All Jeanette Sanders wanted to do was escape her past and forget everything that has happened. Coming to Greyford was supposed to be her new beginning, a clean slate. Only it seems like her past doesn’t want to let her go. As her old insecurities start to return in full force and lies grow bigger than ever, the only thing left is the hope that her broken heart will survive this time around.

Andrew Hill has been betrayed one too many times in the past. Cynical and cold-hearted, he closed off his heart for good and doesn’t plan on letting anybody in ever again. Especially women. But his heart doesn’t seem to care and starts beating faster every time a particular black-haired beauty gets in his way and puts him in his place.

Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Eyes on me, Princess."

I fell so hard for this book and these characters! This is a beautiful story that was beautifully written.
Both Andrew and Jeanette were introduced in Lines. Andrew is the alpha asshole that every girl wants but he is a one and done kind of guy.

Jeanette is cold to anyone and everyone and doesn't allow anyone past her frozen walls.

In Habits, we learn more about what makes them act the way they do.
Both of these two are stubborn and they are both broken. They are holding onto a world of hurt all by themselves because of the choices they made.  They are afraid to take risks because of their pasts.
These two are so frustrating at times and so delicate in other times. One minute I want to hug them and the next I want to strangle them. They both have such strong personalities.

One of the things I like about this series is the distinction between the characters. The couples are not carbon copies from book to book. They each have their own personalities, their quirks, and the stories follow suit.
If you love young adult romance, you NEED to read this book!
