What a ride. There is much more relationship angst, some paranormal world angst, but so much love and swoon.

So, the book definitely does not begin with sunshine and unicorns. The relationship starts with a heavy dub-con situation that is off-page. But I must say, Carter really redeemed himself in my eyes. He lacks confidence in his goodness, but he proves it with his actions, even though these actions result in lots of push and pull and hesitancy. There is definitely a lack of communication but I still survived and loved it.

Lello was so cute and sweet, but also a bundle of nerves. I got everything I wished for from these two and more. The found family is strong, and both MCs interact with them and strengthen their bonds.

And I cannot wait for Grey's book next.

Bonus epilogue: (from the author's newsletter link) Sweet and funny short with the boys and their domestic shenanigans.
