The final book in the Slammed series from Will's point of view brings us down memory lane, and lets us in on some secrets we didn't know from Slammed. I would recommend reading this one a little while after reading the first two books, or it may seem repetitive. The epilogue is quite sweet. Basically, this book makes you love Will even more!

Beautiful? Extraordinary? Incredible? Butterflying Amazing? Those word are not even strong enough to describe my thoughts!

"I love you Will Cooper."
"I love you Layken Cooper."

This story is told from Will's perspective while on their honeymoon and after they have passed the infamous Point of Retreat. Lake and Will are laying in bed discussing his take on past events that have made lasting impacts on their relationship. The story switches from past to present, which works out great. We were given just enough of the past without it being a complete repeat of the first two books. We also get to learn things about Will we didn't know before. There were more heartwarming surprises from Julia and a couple of new slam poems from Will that had me crying my eyes out by last page. I love Will. I love how much he loves Lake. I love their story! Perfection.

Okay. So I had an idea of what this book was kind of going to be like and I was both right and wrong.
This book is re-telling of Slammed in Will's point of view. However, it flips between his retellings and Lake/Will on their honeymoon. So you get to see Lake's reactions about what he was thinking when he tells about their experiences.
You learn a lot about Will being inside his head and you find out a bunch of little things that are like, "Whaaa!?" It's crazy.

But at the same time, I felt like I was reading Slammed all over again. And maybe its just me, but since I read Slammed, like, two days ago. I wasn't really into reading it again that quickly. You feel me?

So while this book was a great glimpse into Will, I felt like it wasn't really needed since we got his point of view in the second book. Hoover might as well come out with Book #4 with Point of Retreat in Lake's POV. It was just too much for me.
