Ahhhhh!! There’s so much to love here! I love seeing more of these boys and that they got their happy ending. So much happened!! It was really clear the author knew what she wanted to do in this second book, knew what journeys the MCs needed to go on and what challenges they needed to face and over come. I think the right things all happened, even if I wasn’t sure about them at first.

The first half was a a litttttttle bit angsty for me — I always prefer to read couples mutually fighting a problem together, rather than reading them fighting a problem between them. But I think there was a journey they needed to have and the payoff was worth it. Plus, there were lots of problems they tackled together, too.
