4.5 stars – While this was shorter than I would have liked, I really liked this series and the conclusion. Clara and Andrew have fought their past and won. No longer is he the bully who tormented her for years in school. Now, he is the man she can’t live without and vice versa.
I love Andrew’s tenacity when it comes to pleasing Clara and generally keeping her safe and happy. There are several unexpected events in this book. One is met with cheers, the other with sneers. The happy one leads to all kinds of craziness that is heartwarming. As for the other, well, you’ll just have to see for yourself.
A couple of my favorite parts were when they were house hunting and Andrew described what they would do with the space. Hehehe…. Another heart melting moment is the non-event event in the park. It was absolutely perfect for them. There is one more hero in this book. An unidentified older gentleman who saves the day. It is sweet and scary, all at the same time.
I love that we got to see the relationship with Clara’s younger sisters develop, along with her mother. It is far from an easy situation but, with time, they find their way.
I received a copy of the audio book from the author but, as always, these thoughts before you are my own. I like Leanne Woodward, the narrator.
Story: 4.5 stars
Narration: 3.5 stars
We have the long awaited conclusion of Andrew and Clara’s story. These two have shown that forgetting your history isn’t an option but it is dealing with what happened that is important as depending on your perspective it is not all good or all bad.
These two have shown that they are strong enough to weather whatever life throws at them whether it is family drama or re-appearing exes. They have a connection that transcends way beyond the physical and are soulmates.
I listed to an audio copy of the book and thought the narrator did a great job at differentiating between the characters and getting the emotions they were feeling across.
Excellent finale to the series. Just how I would have hoped it to end. I liked the crossover with the Rules series as well. Love the characters and the whole London series atmosphere. Definitely recommend.
This was sweet, however with some dread, story. Sweet continuation. With everything taking its place in one perfect picture. Even an intruder from the past with malicious idea in his head did nit destroy this picture, made us afraid a bit, but then made us as well gushing about the way Andrew treated Clara. Beautiful end of story.
A story that is short but well written. Abot accepting your past and the bagage you bring with you through your life. A couple that has a history and has to accept that it only makes them what they are. Likeable characters. Emotional read with twists.
I enjoyed reading this story. There were a few things that I thought would come up in this one that didn’t, and that was a little disappointing, but I still loved the story. I was especially glad that a certain antagonistic character got a great comeuppance. The romance was great and there were plenty of additional satisfying story elements.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
A great finale for these two characters. Hope to see more of them soon. Another winning series from Hanleigh Bradley!!
