My ending was messy in the best way. I'd flirted with both Sam and Robin, so at the gala, things were tense. I ended up choosing Sam, but it was a dramatic, loud argument with Robin storming off. Book 1 ended with Sam and me in a fragile truce, unsure if trust could be rebuilt. The lead-in to Book 2 was a preview showing Robin returning with a vengeance, and let me tell you, that got me to tap 'Play' on the sequel immediately. It felt like my choices actually created a personalized cliffhanger.
