Synopsis
I thought that I was broken before, but my damage never tasted as bitter as this.
The Harlequin boys are more than just a memory now. More than a daydream of our youth and an idea to cling onto.
They’re my greatest weakness and my biggest regret, but I’ve started to realise that coming back to Sunset Cove was always my fate.
My heart beats to the turn of the tide here. My skin only warms beneath this sun. And my soul will only ever be home on these streets and with the men who grew out of my memories.
But nothing is the same as I remember and the time for childish games is coming to an end.
I may want to pretend that the last ten years never happened, but the nightmare I lost myself in has followed me home and I can’t keep ignoring the things I once did to survive.
The question is, will my mistakes be the end of me and my boys? Will the choices I made then change everything now?
And will the life I never wanted steal away my only chance at the life I’m afraid to wish for?Goodreads

Review
Carnival Hill is the third book in the Harlequin Crew series, and I have to say each book in the series is better and better.
There are so many twists and turns in this book. The people we thought were bad turn out not to be so bad, though Shawn is still terrible, so things aren’t that out of control. I will say though characters I liked, I liked a lot less in this one, and characters I didn’t love before became some of my favorites. Though Fox remains my favorite, don’t ask me why because I genuinely have no idea!
There is quite a bit of character development in this book, and more information comes to light about the past, specifically Maverick’s. But I do think more than anything; the story gets going in this one. By the end of this book, I can start to see how everything will work out. There is a bit of a cliffhanger at the end of this, and while I did find it a little eye-roll worthy, I understand why it was needed from a plot perspective.
I enjoyed Carnival Hill, and I am very much looking forward to the next book.
