Happy SighWe've come full circle in the epic love story of one Logan Mitchell and one Tate Morrison. It's been a whirlwind ride for two improbably perfect male specimens and yet I've loved every second of it because just below the surface of gorgeous masc guys, with more than healthy libidos perpetually hot for each other there's a believable human story, with real emotions, and a plausible progression.This is the final installment of the series and it's a very satisfying end mostly because it's not an end. Not really. It's more like a last? visit with dear friends seeing them on the next stage of their HEA. Bring your tissues. You will need them. Where the first book in this series was all about LUST this final one is about emotion. It's about the bone deep connection forged by those who truly love one another, it's about the beauty of our chosen families, the ones who are there to catch us when the others have failed. It's about trying to hold on tight to that love that makes everything better, perfect, and scary:“I love you,” Tate stated, as he brought Logan's fingers up to his mouth to kiss his knuckles. “So much that it sometimes scares me and sometimes makes me stupid.”Don't we all want a love like that? It was utterly romantic. In the best sense. I love how open Logan is, how naked in his emotions, on what he wants. I love how Tate is willing to lay everything on the line, lay himself open to and for Logan in every way possible. It was Logan after all, with his daring and persistence, who woke Tate to the life he now has and loves, it was Logan who fought for him, even wresting him from the jaws of death. It's Logan who will have him and in turn be his. Swoon. The rest of the beloved characters make an appearance and are wonderful as ever. We even get a visit from Diana and it's sweet. No harpies in sight. Speaking of harpies it's no secret for those who have been keeping up with this series that our guys each have mother issues and I'm delighted to say that [a:Ella Frank 6451816 Ella Frank https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1458548729p2/6451816.jpg] didn't go for the easy, Hallmark solution. She gave us truth. Sad. Disappointing. Perhaps infuriating. But truth.***I did this whole series with both books & the audio by [a:Shannon Gunn 6996772 Shannon Gunn https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]. He is, at certain moments, a bit of an acquired taste, but I don't regret listening to him. As the series progressed his characterization of Logan, in particular, and most of the others has only grown and deepened. He's not just reading. He's doing a performance. And pretty unforgettable one at that.***
