4.5 Lovely Stars!
Whelp.
This sequel did not fail me.
Admittedly, it drove me quite bonkers but really really incorporated so many things I love in a romance where I have a soft spot for not only law enforcement MC’s but also the exact situation where there is so much doubt and insecurity and the small baby steps of wins is just so gratifying because you're waiting on the edge of your seat for some grand gesture but all you get is a small look or twitch or that rarely heard endearment and your heart clenches with joy with each instance.
That’s what happened here. Sparse in the romantic overtures but still meaty enough to fuel that want and longing.
Despite my rambling this is still a mystery at its core, and while Cooper and Park are contemplating or avoiding or ignoring their budding feelings for the other, they have to deal with Cooper’s dad being accused of murder.
Beware unreasonable familial expectations and being in the closet with said family. Beware miscommunication or no communication between these two knuckleheads but when they do make their proclamations, I swooned like an idiot. Cooper continues to be his usual snarky self, putting his foot in it over and over. And Park?? Seriously?? This sexy alpha werewolf is all I want for Christmas! Pretty please?! Unf.
A compelling page turner and I finished this in a day. That’s the real indication of an absolute obvious win!

I think this is one of the nicest to read and most realistic depictionof a relationship between 2 sweet people with trust issues I've ever read. The reconciliation with miscommunicated family is also very well done. Smut scenes are almost poetic lmao

I really liked the couple in the first book, and continue to love them in this one. It’s my favorite type of miscommunication, in that it wasn’t the plot of the story. And love family
Which is another point, I’m always a fan of murder mystery/crime story’s etc. So this continues to work in my favor. The murder is compelling in of itself, and not as obvious as others, so that adds to the enjoyment!
