I have only ever been disappointed by the way a love triangle in a book series ended twice in my life.
Both of those times, the series was written by Jennifer Lynn Barnes.

Below is my third update of The Final Gambit, very sorry this is a day late, yesterday The School for Good and Evil’s trailer and a bunch of stills came out so I was very distracted. This will have spoilers for chapter 54-67.
Spoilers below
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
“Was it three-dimensional?” Does this mean Xanders dad is nice? Please tell me this means Xanders dad is nice
“You’re saying that you wanted me?” I have tears in my eyes 🥹, thank goodness at least one of the Hawthorne boys has a good dad.
“I just want to finish this doughnut and eat his four best doughnut-y friends and congratulate myself for probably not vomiting” don’t we all Xander
“What’s wrong with me? You’re the one who locked me in the world’s most bejeweled escape room!” “To keep you safe” “You’re not supposed to keep me anything! I’m not going to stay locked up here, and it is not your place to lock me up. I don’t need your protection.” “This is what you want! It’s what you’ve always wanted. An arrogant, duty-bound asshole who tries to be honorable and would die to protect the girl he loves. I’m not Grayson” “I don’t want you to be,” I said, pleading—for what, I wasn’t even sure. “Yes, you do. I love you. I would die to protect you. I would make you hate me to keep you safe because damn it, Avery—some things are too precious to gamble. This is who I want to be,” Jameson said, his voice hoarse, “for you.” MANIPULATIVE ANNOYING LITTLE 🤬! How did Jameson fall so far? He somehow attempted to justify locking her in a room, accused her of wanting his brother, and said he would die for her all in one argument. Yes I took out some of the things he said here that were more positive but I’m not going to copy down the whole argument, so I just put the parts that infuriated me. Maybe I’m the only person who wouldn’t find it flattering if someone said they would die to protect me right after they said I wanted someone like their brother.
“Clearly I was wrong about you” The way I just gasped! GRAYSON DAVENPORT HAWTHORNE! He is letting Eve manipulate him so much!
“You know that this isn’t about Grayson and me, tell me you know that, Jameson.” “I know,” he replied, “that I love you, and despite all odds, you love me” right when she needs reassurance he makes it about him! The bois are thoroughly ruined 😣
“It was always going to be you” “It’s times like this, Heiress, that I wish I’d fallen in love with a girl who wasn’t quite so good at bluffing.” If this isn’t the most toxic relationship ever 🫣
Well, it’s all coming together. I guess it’s time for Avery to get her grave digging boots*
Of course Eve has a gun! Damn I keep forgetting they are in Texas
*please tell me someone gets that reference

Ok but important question, do you think Oren is team Jameson or Grayson?
Personally I think Jameson because he’s Avery’s body guard 24/7 and has definitely seen Jameson treat her well.
