This story jumps from Georgie and new character Claire's perspective. So no male POV in this short read. As always explicit sex scenes shown throughout, though I did not find them quite as compelling as the last stories. We do get a window into not all relationships being happy and healthy with Claire being in an emotionally abusive dynamic with the male Bek she has been seeing/staying with despite not having resonated. So was interesting to see how this is brought up in a tiny community and see Claire's perspective on her understanding of why she is in this relationship. All of these stories are always very hard HEA so moments of tension feel brief and quickly resolved but was a shift from the typical description of the relationships between the human women and Sa-khui men. This story greatly focuses on all the human women wanting to bring earth traditions like holidays to Not-Hoth and trying to explain and share this with the Sa-khui. There is also lots of discussions of the new babies and childbirth. The pacing felt slightly slower, the laughs less entertaining, and the story overall less engaging. It is a quick read and very much adds to the development of the world but definitely not a story I would ever feel compelled to revisit and my least favorite of the series so far (I am following a reading list from the author's website that incorporates all the series in this universe).
