Game On (Into Darkness Series)

By Navessa Allen

#1 New York Times Bestseller. Dark Romcom Sensation. Over 3 million copies sold. Book three in the #1 New York Times bestselling Into Darkness Series, following Navessa Allen’s scintillating Lights Out and Caught Up. The game is on for these enemies-to-lovers with laugh-out-loud banter and scorching-hot brat play. I hate that woman. Tyler Neumann has spent years looking for his father, and not because he wants to meet the man. No, he wants to destroy him. And he’ll manipulate whoever he can to exact his revenge. Including Stella McCormick. She’s everything Tyler hates. Her wealth and privilege have protected her for her entire life, and Tyler thinks it's time she finally paid the price. Whether she’s ready to or not. I hate that man. Stella might not believe in love at first sight, but loathing at first sight—no question. From the moment she sets eyes on Tyler in her tattoo parlor, she knows he’s the devil planning to make her life hell. Forced to play the part of his girlfriend and invite him into her family’s glittering circles, Stella quickly clocks Tyler’s ulterior motives. But love and hate are two sides of the same coin, and soon she doesn’t know which is worse: being blackmailed by a man who wants to ruin her, or that they can’t seem to keep their hands off each other. This is an enemies-to-lovers dark romance with morally grey characters. Some themes and scenes may be disturbing to readers. Please check the content warnings at the beginning of the book.

6/10 stars
The combination of enemies to lovers mixed with dominance and brat plus a poly relationship just felt like a little too much all at once. There was too much going on, while also not enough happening, somehow. The audiobook narrators made this a pleasant experience, but on its face, these characters were not very likeable, the plot was not very believable, and the relationship was pretty toxic.

I think this is a solid second place for the Lights Out challenge, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we get another one. One review made a good point—it’s marketed as enemies to lovers, but it’s really more fake dating than anything. I think I hyped myself up into expecting more than what it actually was. I gave it 5 stars online, but I’m considering dropping it to a 3.

The finale we deserved. Every thread Navessa Allen has been pulling since book one comes together here, and the payoff is so satisfying I actually put the book down for a second just to catch my breath. Aly's growth across the trilogy has been such a joy to watch.From exhausted, thirsty nurse to a woman who fully embraces the chaos (and danger) that found her, and watching her finally get her HEA felt earned in every sense. This series as a whole is proof that dark romance doesn't have to sacrifice humor to be genuinely tense and emotionally resonant. Game On sticks the landing with the same sharp wit, spice, and heart that made this trilogy an instant favorite. If you haven't started Into Darkness yet, do yourself a favor and clear your weekend

I loved Lights Out with my whole heart. Josh was the perfect combo of unhinged and loving.
Book 2 sucked.
Book 3 is worse. I regret wasting my time.
