ARC REVIEW
If You Keep Me by @helenahunting
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️½ (4.5/5)
Saying goodbye to the Toronto Terror hurts — but if anyone deserved a love story, it’s Flip Madden.
We’ve only ever seen pieces of him before now — just enough to make me desperate to understand what made the former Playboy tick. And when we finally learn the reason behind his emotional distance and lack of relationships? Cue the waterworks. Flip was left so damaged by his previous relationship that he spent years believing sex was the only thing he had to offer. But he is so much more than his skills in the bedroom (even if they are epic): kind, generous, and deeply attentive. I completely understand why Tallulah spent years obsessed with him.
And Tally? She’s juggling an overwhelming amount of pressure — college, dance performances, her future career, family drama, and a very public relationship with the media tracking her every move. She handles it with grace and poise far beyond her years. My heart hurt for her as she struggled to keep her head above water.
One of the best parts of the Toronto Terror series has always been the found family — both the Babe Brigade and the team itself. Tally has her college friends rallying around her when things get hard, offering support and honest advice when she needs it most. And the team? They keep Flip grounded, stepping in to support him when his secret finally comes to light.
While I’m sad to say goodbye to the Terror, I’m excited to dive deeper into the Tilton U universe.
