“You can’t let anyone steal that light. Can’t let anyone dim it. No matter how hard they try. Because that lights magic” 

This follows Roan and Aspen. Aspen and her daughter Cady have a past but are trying to make a future in the small town and hide in the shadows. Roan the grumpy wildlife worker who is not the best communicator has a protective side and is known in the town as someone who keeps to himself. 

I enjoyed this book. The Hartley family just bring me joy especially seeing the couples from the first three books make an appearance as well. Roan grumpy side is my favorite but his world stops and he opens up when Aspen is in his orbit. Love how strong Aspen is and honestly, Cady is one of the best kids written that I have read she has a great personality. 

I read this on my Kindle and was lucky enough to get the Audiobook as well and it's fantastic. Zachary and Maxine you can't fault them loved them in this. 

I would like to mention that honestly Roan as a bother is forgettable in the other three books as the siblings are mentioned a lot throughout the series. He was my least favourite but now he is memorable. This also for me seemed like a similar intense situation as a few of the other books in the series where someone from the past comes back and causes all this hassle and the target is the FMC and the MMC’s always there to save them. In this book yes was someone from their past but was a random character you didn’t even really meet in the book. Lastly, the FMC and MMC have only been together for a short time and the next life step happened way too fast for me but this is a personal preference. I don’t think these are major things just have a bit of perspective from reading the other books in the series.
