Saxon James is one of my favorite authors, and one I've been following for a while now, having already reviewed several of her books. Whenever I'm feeling down or need to lift my spirits a bit, I always try to read something by her, because I know it's a sure way to end the day with a smile.

Now, I have to say that I'm not sure if this is one of my favorite stories by her (I DID like it, but there are others that I liked more) but I can say that it's one of the best I've read in terms of how to deal with mental issues and how they affect the person who suffers from them and those around this person. I mean, I think she did a great job of showing the inside of the mind of someone with such problems, how they see themselves, how they see others, and how it affects their relationships with the people around them. It also shows that those problems don't magically get solved just because someone loves them or supports them. Yes, that's a huge help. It's an incredible, huge help, but it's not enough. Healing takes a lot of effort, a lot of work and sacrifice, and it's painful, and it takes time, and most of the times, it needs the help of people who are trained to do it.

And also, in this story, Saxon shows us that when someone suffers from mental issues, it's not just that person who suffers from them, but also the family, friends or romantic partners. That it affects everyone, in one way or another, that it's painful for everyone, and how when everyone works together, the results are incredible.

Sorry, I didn't want to make some kind of lecture about this. It was supposed to be a simple review, but I really wanted to highlight what she did here, which I found amazing and worth mentioning.

I would love to recommend not only this book, but the entire series. Each story contributes something, and while it may not be for everyone's taste, I think everyone can still enjoy it.

I was given an advanced copy and voluntarily wrote a review.
