Happy publication day!
Dark Water Daughter is an interesting pirate story, set in a world full of magic.
Mary has the rare ability to control the weather when singing, making her very valuable to navy and pirates in general. The use of her talent to survive sets in motion a series of events who will transform her life and identity completely.
The story is duas POV, giving a faster pace to the events. The characters are layered and well developed, and while I enjoyed both main characters, I feel the secondary and villains were the ones making the story shine.
The story is very original and I haven't read anything similar. I've felt it was somewhat a cross between Pirates of the Caribbean and Stranger Things I couldn't predict what was going to happen which is something that always delights me.
I liked it! Recommended for adult fantasy readers, especially those with a soft spot for pirate stories.
3.5 stars
I would like to thank Titan Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was a great debut and, so far, one of my favorite romances of the year.
Forget me not is the debut romance of Julie Soto, a sweet and angsty love story between a wedding planner and a florist.
I am usually not a fan of the wedding set up, but it worked well on this book as it perfectly shows how good Ama and Elliot work together, and what a great couple they could become.
The story is told through dual POV, interspersing past and present chapters, and fueling the book with longing and angst.
I really enjoyed this book! It was well written, the characters were layered and interesting and I was rooting for their HEA from the beginning.
I loved to see how both characters were invested in their careers, but able to support and encourage each other, becoming their better selves when working together. My heart was aching for them and I just wanted to see them happy.
Read this if you enjoy steamy second chance romances between a Grump and a Sunshine.
I was thoroughly entertained and recommend its reading to all contemporary romance readers.
I would like to thank HarlerCollins UK, HarperFiction and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book was truly wonderful! I loved everything about it and I'm not sure I have words in me to do it justice. The cover however, is stunning and a perfect package for this beautiful story.
“A promise is not a kiss in the wind Channi, it is a piece of yourself that is given away and will not return until your pledge is fulfilled.”
Elizabeth Lim is a master of storytelling and created a heartwarming story full of love, adventure and magic. The writing is beautiful and completely immersed me in this world. The characters are wonderful and I was fully invested in their journey and outcomes.
Channi and Vanna are exactly the type of female characters I want to see more and I'm glad the new generation of readers will grow reading about them. They are strong, smart and able to fight for themselves, but their greatest strength is their love and bonds.
This book is the prequel of Six Crimson Cranes and it was my introduction to this world. I must say, in no way this affected my enjoyment of the book, and it was probably the twist I was needing to pick up a story that I already know and love.
Her Radiant Curse will be published in August 29th and I couldn't recommend it more. I hope I can get my hands in one of the Fairyloot exclusive editions (update: I will indeed have the signed fairyloot edition!)
I would like to thank Hodder & Stoughton and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review. What an immense privilege it was!
Thank you to NetGalley and SOURCEBOOKS Bloom Books for providing me an eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!
This book resumes Lennix and Maxim story after the cliffhanger of the first book. Overall I preferred this book to the first one, though I still feel it suffers from the same criticisms.
I think it was interesting to learn about the heritage and culture of apaches and I enjoyed the inclusion of serious issues such as colonization impacts. Additionally, I liked the bits regarding the presidential campaign and USA politics.
I still feel the romance is somewhat lacking as it feels solely based on their physical attraction.
The rebel king is full of action and steam, and I recommend it for contemporary romance readers who enjoy:
- Alpha and very controlling heroes
- Age gaps
- Dual POV
Not my favorite Steinbeck book but, like pizza, it is still very good.
”Cannery Row in Monterey in California is a poem, a stink, a grating noise, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream.”
This book works almost as a collection of short stories/ anecdotes about the people living in Cannery Row. The writing is beautiful, funny and really makes the characters shine.
It was the first Steinbeck book I read in English and the experience is very different. I might need to reread everything else in the original versions.
100% recommended
Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for providing me an eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!
Love theorem follows the story of Lana, a space engineer Phd student, who doesn't watch tv and accidentally meets an Hollywood super star while hiding from her life in a closet.
This was a quick and fun read, I just wished it had a bit more of the STEM side rather than de Hollywood one.
Read this if you like:
- Dual POV
- Insta love
- Opposites attract
- Famous and non famous romance
- Closed door
Quoting Dr. Seuss “oh I did not like it, not one little bit””
Frankly, it is hard to believe I have read the same book everyone else is reading and rating 5 stars. I don't even know how to write a review about it.
What I liked about the book:
- FMC with disabilities and I always like to see people embracing their difficulties and achieve what they are meant to be.
- banter and spice.
- The ending was not bad and I believe it can lead to a better second book.
- Dragons and magic. The riders have a lot of interesting powers that I hope to see more in the future.
What I think it could have been done better:
- The story and writing is very juvenile and in no way should it be marketed as adult fantasy. The characters feel like horny teenagers with poor communication skills.
- The writing is just awful. Everything is written as teenagers would speak in school. This is obvious aligned with the school setting but the characters are in their 20's. Moreover, Violet was supposed to be a scribe, I would expect her to use more vocabulary and proper sentences.
- The characters were poorly developed and lacked depth. Both MCs have characteristics that are distinct from other romantasy books, however, as those where not explored, they ended up looking like copy cats of other novels. This is especially relevant for Violet as we could have seen her develop and end up only reading about it.
- The world building is absurdly vague and most of it passed as info dump in random moments (e.g. violet reciting everything she knows as a strategy to stay calm).
- You can have beautiful men and not objectify them. I only know Xaden is nice because he has done multiple incredibly nice gestures. Violet, however, appears only able to speak about his beautiful and strong body. Absolutely no one would find this ok if it was a male writer describing women. If we don't like to see women objectified, it is only fair to treat men with the same level of respect.
- Every little thing about this book was obvious since the beginning.
- Some parts of the plot just don't make any sense to me:
- in the last quarter of the book Violet is very concerned about where Xander is going to be placed after graduation as the long distance relationship would be very hard.. why would she think this? It was established quite earlier in the book that the mated dragons could no be separate for more than 3 days! She is never going to be separate from him for long, they would just need to be changing places.- We know feathertails don't bond because they can accidentally give their gifts to humans and therefore, they are guarded and never leave the vale. Since dragons are very protective of their hatchlings, and strictly followers of their rules, it would be impossible for 100 dragons to simply accept the presence of one feathertail in presentation day to analyze bonding candidates.
I do believe the story has potencial to become better and I still plan to give a chance to the next book in this series. However, don't pick up this book expecting adult fantasy, this is YA romance marketed as adult due to the smut.
TLDR: maybe I'm just old
Thank you to NetGalley and Atlantic Books for providing me an eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!
Kala Lannan is the kind of person who draws everyone around her. Girls want to be like her, boys want to be with her, and everyone feels a bit special to be close to her. In 2003 she disappeared without a trace and has never been found.
Fifteen years later, part of the group is back in town and Kala's body is discovered, reopening old wounds that never truly healed.
“Life is like this: immense when you are inside it, but manageable from the outside, touched from a distance.”
I don't usually read thrillers but once in a while I like to pick one and see what I am missing. I couldn't be more happy that Kala was the one I chose.
This book is much more than discovering what happened with Kala. It's also a coming of age story to remind us about the summers of our lives, about the friendships that mean the whole world, the beauty of first love and the raw intensity of teenagers emotions. It is also a story about how the past affects us and life turns out to be different than we dreamed.
The story is told through Helen, Joe and Mush POV, which encompasses both present and past timelines as they remember the events before Kala's disappearance. This strategy gives a special rhythm to the story, and it is one of the things that make this book such a page turner.
I liked the story and I was invested in the case but my favorite part of the book were the characters. Colin wrote brilliant characters and I believe some of them will stay with me for a long time.
Kala was Colin Walsh debut and I can't wait to see what he will bring us next.
This was a satisfying conclusion to Oraya and Rhain main story but it did not grab my attention as the first book in the series.
What I liked about the book:
- Oraya remains a very strong character and I enjoyed how grief keeps being portrayed in the story.
- Vincent is my favorite character and I'm glad we got to see a bit more of him.
- The story is full of action and interesting events.
What I think it could have been better:
- I feel Rhain betrayal was too big to be forgiven. However, considering it could be forgiven eventually, begging during sex should definitely not have been the way to do it. I could understand if it was “only” the kingdom... but he killed her father!
- I know Carissa is amazing writing villains and morally grey characters (Vincent is one perfect example of this) and, therefore, I was expecting more from Septimus and Simon. Rhain POV would have been perfect to develop more layers to these characters (Septimus through dialogues in the main POV and Simon in the interludes for instance)
- I continue to believe the story would benefit from more info regarding world building. I still don't fully understand the different magics of the different gods (not even Nyaxia magic which we should be perfect familiarized by now).
Overall I enjoyed the book and still recommend its reading. However, so far, I think Daughter of No Worlds is a far superior story.
This book brings us back to Rome, Kentucky and follows the story of the introvert and sweet Annie and Will, the strong and sexy bodyguard.
What you can find in this book:
- Dual POV
- Insta love
- Small town
- Fake dating
What I loved in the story:
- Small town and Stars Hollow vibes.
- The main and supporting characters were likeable and I was invested in their outcome. I loved all the scenes between Will and Annie.
- Despite being a bit of an insta love story, it was very well developed and I could feel their attraction evolving and their friendship growing into love.
- Lots of communication and personal healing for the MC. Will is just wonderful!
I feel the ending was a bit rushed. We see them taking a time apart, Will saying he is leaving and then staying with close to no explanations. Although we know Will's background and see him understanding its impact on his fears through his conversations with his brother and Mabel, we don't see the beginning of the healing. I would have liked to see an additional chapter from Will's POV, with him working on his problems, starting therapy and deciding to stay.
Cosy and lighthearted read for contemporary romance readers.
P.S - The Bonus epilogue was almost everything this book was missing! (I would still have liked to see some healing from William)
I really enjoyed Cassandra's previous series Daughter of no Worlds and I was really curious with this new one, which has been receiving so much attention and positive reviews.
This book follows the story or Oraya, a human girl who was rescued and raised by a vampire king. She dreams of changing the world and, for that, she needs to become stronger. She has been training her entire life to win the Kejari and conquer her place in the world. Is she going to be strong enough to beat the competition, while being an easy prey among predators?
What I liked in the book:
- Strong, fearless and smart FMC. Oraya always used her brain in the trials, being this the main reason for her success.
- Carissa is wonderful writing villains and morally gray characters. This is true for both of her series and one of the reasons I enjoy so much her books.
- The romance development was great and mainly based on their connection, interactions and friendship. We hardly get any mention to how handsome the MMC is and this is much appreciated.
- Although I easily predicted the main revelations of the story, I didn't predict the way they happen and I was nicely surprised by it. This was also true for Daughter of no worlds and one of the reasons I think Clarissa is currently one of the best writers of the genre.
What I think it could have been done better:
- It's hard to please everyone regarding the worldbuilding info dump but I believe this book deserved a bit more and I hope the next books expand on this.
I must admit I'm not a huge fan of vampires and I'm getting a bit tired of all the horniness related to blood sucking in recent fantasy series. Despite this, I thoroughly enjoyed this first book and I'm quite excited to continue the series.
Perfect reading for ACOTAR, TOG and Blood and Ash fans. I think it actually has potential to turn out to be better than those series.
Six scorched roses is a novella set in the Crowns of Nyaxia world. We get to see another region and meet characters that will appear on the next installments of the series.
This was a great addition to the series and I am quite impressed with the depth Carrissa conveyed to the characters, their story and their romance in such a small length of pages.
As the first book of the series, I still think this series deserves more worldbuilding info dump.
This book is a retelling of some greek myths (Minotaur labyrinth, Phaedra and Dionysos) from Ariadne perspective.
I know it is unfair to make comparisons as Madeline Miller has set an impossibly high standard when it comes to Greek retellings. However, I can't ignore it and, although Jennifer Saint's writing is beautiful and lyrical, I must say she's no Madeline Miller and Ariadne is no Circe.
My main issue with the book it's not the writing though, it's the content. Everyone who knows me knows I love to see the women perspective of events and read a feminist view of those. However, instead of empowering females, the feminist view of the book can be summarized with “men are bad and take advantage of women”.
Additionally, both Ariadne and Phaedra are quite unremarkable, and their lives were not that interesting, which made me feel bored for most of the book.
I believe this story would have worked much better as a novella rather than a full length novel.
The reviews show this is a well beloved book so maybe just ignore my opinion. I recommend it for everyone who loves mythology and retellings.
Happy place follows the story of Harriet, her love life with Wyn and her friendship with her found family over the years. This is a beautiful story about love, friendship, second chances, growth and happy places.
What I loved about the book:
- One of the most beautiful love stories I've read. You can just feel Harriet and Wyn truly love each other. There is so much raw emotion in each page! It is not about lust and attraction and it feels real in a way I rarely see written.
- Great mental health representation (depression and anxiety)
- Despite being one POV only, the past chapters perfectly show Wyn's strengths and flaws, his insecurities and his incredible ability to love. I loved these chapters as I could have glimpses of their happy life and understand why they were just perfect for each other.
- happy places perfectly shows how friendships shift and evolve through time and as we age, even when we fight against it and try to keep everything the same. It's ok to grow and change and I liked to see it with Harriet's friends.
My only complaint in this book is that I wished I have seen more of their lives and happy ending. The romance is well written enough for me to believe in the MC HEA but, after all the sadness and suffering, I would have liked to read a bit more about their happy ending, especially about happy Wyn.
Emily Henry's books are always successful but excluding Beach Read, which I absolutely adore, I tend to have mix/negative feelings about them. Happy place just won a place alongside Beach Read on my favorites list.
When in Rome is a small town romance inspired on Roman Holiday. The book follows the story of Amelia, a burned out American pop star who loves Audrey Hepburn and seeks comfort in her movies. In an attempt to find herself again, she decides to follow Audrey's steps and ends up going to Rome (Kentucky not Italy) where she meets Noah, and all the classic meddlers of small towns.
What you can find in this book:
- Dual POV
- Insta love
- Small town
- Grumpy-sunshine
- Forced proximity
What I enjoyed in the story:
- small town stories almost always give me Stars Hollow vibes
- The main and supporting characters were likeable and I was invested in their outcome.
- I particularly liked Noah's family which left me curious for Annie's story.
Insta love is not my favorite trope but I couldn't stop reading it and rooting for their love. This is a fantastic read for romance readers in need of a pick me up.
This book follows the story of Briana, Alexis Best friend from “Part of your world”, and Jacob. Both characters are ER doctors and both are great at what they do - Briana is waiting to be promoted to Chief of emergency, position that Jacob occupied in a different hospital. They both are experiencing some very difficult times in their lives and find in each other the joy they were needing.
I'm truly disappointed with this book. This is definitely a “me” problem as most of the reviews state wonders about the book. I was loving it during the first half but at some point I just couldn't enjoy it anymore.
What was great about the book:
- Jacob is amazing and deserves 5 stars. He is beautifully written and a perfect portrait of how it is to live with anxiety. I loved to read his POV and learn his coping mechanisms.
- Abby, as expected, does a wonderful job writing about the serious topics - anxiety, critical renal failure, depression etc..
- the letters between them were adorable
What I think it could have been done better:
- in my opinion, this book just had too much of everything:
- too many tropes - enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, workplace romance, fake dating, forced proximity, one bed, miscommunication, and it doesn't even end here but I won't spoiler further than this
- MAJOR miscommunication issues. I'm not sure I have read a book with this much miscommunication.
- The slowest of slow burns: they kiss (and have everything else) at 81% mark of the book. This could work well, but because of the way it was written it wasn't even satisfactory. It just left me anxious, annoyed and mad about what was happening.
- After all the angst, we still have a 3rd act break up (more like a 5th act? Almost an epilogue break up to be honest) that I don't think it added anything to the story. I liked the way the break up was resolved, it made sense with the storyline, but it could have been used earlier in the book, avoiding the last conflict.
- It's perfectly ok to have characters that are not nice and that people don't like. Every family has at least one black sheep. Briana becoming best friends with Amy is just nonsense.
The book is not bad, it just wasn't right for me. I still think most romance readers will love it.
Happy publication day!
The Rachel Incident is a coming of age story of a Millennial girl in Cork, at the peak of the financial crises. It is also a love story, a journey of self discovery and acceptance and a tale of the lack of reproductive healthcare in Ireland.
I absolutely adored this book! It was so easy to relate with the characters that parts of the story just felt like a trip down memory lane. Being a Millennial myself, who was also trying to find her place in the world at the described timeline, probably enhanced my understanding of some of the struggles. However, Caroline O'Donoghue perfectly describes the insecurities, struggles, feelings, passions and the absolute mess of entering the adult age, which I believe are pretty much the same for all generations.
The writing is beautiful and I particularly liked the fact the story is told from the present time. This allow us not only to experience what the characters were feeling at the time, but also see it through adult eyes and understand the different perspectives.
This book is perfect for Sally Rooney fans, with the advantage of including likable and a lot less pretentious characters.
Thank you to NetGalley and Knopf for providing me an eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!
I am a fan of Chloe Liese and the Bergman Brother series. I like Chloe's writing but mostly, I love the way she gives voices to neurodivergent characters and mental health issues. If only you is no exception to this and it's another book with stellar representation.
This book follows the story of the youngest of the Bergman's family, Ziggi, who is autistic and still seen as a kid and not taken as serious as she wished, and Sebastian, a bad boy from Ren's hockey team, who desperately needs to put his act together.
What I liked about the book:
- The story was sweet and Sebastian is a great MMC. I enjoyed his evolution and how committed he was to be a better person to be worthy of Ziggi.
- Well executed friends to lovers
- Neurodivergence, celiac disease and mental health representation
- The moments with the Bergman family are great as usual. As Ziggi is very close to Ren, we have a lot of Ren and Frankie cameos, which I liked as they were one of my favorite Bergman couples.
- The book has several funny moments but I particularly liked the ones with Linnie, and the “Rhysand” appearance “hello Ziggi, dear”
What I think it could have been done better:
- Unfortunately, I feel this book and “Everything for you” weren't as good as the previous ones in the series which left me disappointed. I don't know if it is the pressure of changing to tradicional publishers or the need to finish the Bergman series while writing the Wilmot sisters, the truth is that the last books felt quite different to me. The plot has less depth, the endings feel rushed and there is a lot of tell rather than showing that do not benefit the stories.
This book was an enjoyable read and I still think it will appeal to most romance readers.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bloom Books for providing me an eARC of this book in exchange for my honest review!
Before I let go by Kennedy Ryan was one of my favorite reads from 2022 and I couldn't be more excited for having the opportunity to review other book from her.
Unfortunately, I believe I'm not the right audience for this story and I didn't enjoy it as I was expecting.
This book follows the story of Lennix, an Apache descendent, passionate about giving voice to minorities and difficult causes and Maxim, a son of an oil baron, who is fully dedicated to environmental causes and energy transition.
The plot itself was very predictable and I found the love story quite flat. Although the MC have some interests in common, I couldn't see what was keeping them together besides lust and physical attraction.
It was interesting to learn a bit about the heritage and culture of apaches and I enjoyed the inclusion of serious issues such as colonization impacts.
The information provided regarding the climate crises and USA politics is basic, which per se is not a problem as this is a romance and not a non fiction book. However, I must confess this book left me increasingly worried about the climate. If the information provided is not common knowledge to everyone, we have indeed a long path ahead to protect the planet.
I recommend this book for contemporary romance readers who enjoy:
- insta love
- Alpha heroes
- Age gaps
- Dual POV
Although I did not particularly enjoy the story, I will probably read the next installment as this one ends on a cliffhanger.
Happy publication day!
Dead Romantics was my favorite romance last year and I feel truly honored for having the possibility to read this book prior to its release.
What can I say about ”The seven year slip”? I liked it even more than the authors debut.
This book follows the story of Clementine, who inherits her aunts apartment after her death. They were very close and used to travel the world together every year.
Clementine is devastated by the loss and consumed with grief. Luckily, the apartment is magical and takes you seven years in the past or future when you find yourself at a crosswords, which is Clementine's case.
I loved a ton of things about this book:
- The premise of the book is quite interesting and perfectly accomplished with Ashley's beautiful and captivating writing
- It's a story about grief, acceptance, self discovery and growth, enveloped with a cute romance and filled with hope.
- Clementine's aunt was great and I loved to read about their relationship and her pieces of advice
”My aunt used to say, if you don't fit, fool everyone until you do. She also said to keep your passport renewed, to pair red wines with meat and whites with everything else, to find work that is fulfilling to your heart as well as your head, to never forget to fall in love whenever you find it because love is nothing if not a matter of timing, and to chase the moon.”
- Iwan has my heart. He is the kind of hero that it's impossible not to fall in love with.
- I liked how the nicknames would be related/ represent who the characters were at each moment. This was nicely done.
What I think it could have been done better:
- Despite her aunt's brilliant life advices, it appeared that Clementine completely forgot the bit regarding the timing of love and focused only on the house rules, to the point I also forgot she mentioned something about love before. This felt weird and I think it would have been beautiful to connect their relationship with her aunt true recommendations/ beliefs.
- Although I'm quite convinced about the romance with Iwan of the past, the romance on the present felt to insta for me. Clementine is always remarking about how different he is from the Iwan she knows and is falling for. I feel the book needed more present scenes of Iwan and Clementine to convince me they would work out and this is the main reason why I dropped one star.
I would like to thank HQ and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was truly a brilliant read and I can't recommended enough!
I've wanted to read something from Mark Lawrence for awhile but I wasn't sure where was best to start. When I saw this book I was sure this would be a great choice! What could be better than a story about a library, knowledge and books?
I won't enter into too much details to not spoil the book. This is a heartwarming story encompassing several very serious topics such as racism, misinformation, cyclical history theory, among others.
The writing was beautiful, the world building was original and the characters are interesting. I was absolutely drawn to the story and I can't wait for the sequel.
I would like to thank HarpetCollins UK and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book follows Jack (Olive's brother) story. During Olive's wedding, Jack meets Hallie, a bartender that earlier in the morning had helped him choose an engagement ring for his girlfriend Vanessa. After a misunderstanding, Jack and his girlfriend break up and he ends up having a one night stand with Hallie.
Despite not having exchanged any contacts, they end up texting through an online dating app and establish a wager to see who will find first their ideal match.
This is a two POV cosy friends to lovers read, with funny characters that had a lot of chemistry, and some of the most beloved rom com tropes: MMC falls first, fake dating and one bed.
Recommended for contemporary romance readers.
I would like to thanks Charissa Weeks for the opportunity to read an ARC of The Wolf and the witch in exchange for an honest review.
This book picks up immediately after the City of Ruin ending, which was quite unforgettable. Although we do learn a few things that will calm our aching hearts, this book is a novella that focus mainly on Nephele and Neri and thus, does not advance much in terms of plot for the remaining of the series.
What I liked about the book:
- Both Nephele and Neri are strong and likable characters. I enjoyed their banter and how much Neri advocated Nephele independence and capabilities to Alexus and Colden.
- I was already curious about the Bloodgood family and this book left me even more curious about them.
- although I would have preferred this book to advance more in terms of plot, I think the pieces it added are quite helpful to make the next book more focused on the main issues/ story.
What I think it could have been done better:
- this book is mainly focused on the romance and, although I don't dislike smut, I would have liked to see a bit more action.
- One of the things I love the most in this series is that it always felt original, in a land where magic is wielded by singing it, having a mute main character is absolutely refreshing. Nephele character, although strong and interesting, is more similar to some strong female characters from other fantasy/ romance series, including some bits that for me, resembled too much the Blood and Ash series.
I am a fan of the Witch Walker series since I accidentally discovered it on 2021 and it pains me to say I didn't enjoy this book as much as I wanted. However, it was still a thoroughly entertaining read and I will keep anxiously awaiting for the next installment to be released this year.
If you are a fan of Fantasy romance, I can't recommend this series enough!
Third and last book of the Chance of a lifetime series and it was my favorite one.
This book follows Greer story after the lottery prize. We already know she returned to school because she wanted to find freedom, we just didn't understand yet why was it the only way to get where she needed. Both MC are complex and have experienced challenging and difficult times and their relationship help them navigate through their issues and find a balance between what they enjoy and dislike on themselves.
I wanted to read Alex POV since the first book and it definitely didn't disappoint.
I was rooting for Greer and Alex since the beginning of the book and, despite knowing there was obviously an HEA, I was aching to see them happy as I couldn't picture two characters who deserved it more.
With Georgie all along and this serie Kate settled herself as one of my favorite romance authors.
