Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Writing: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Plot: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Characters: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Tropes: Single dad, she falls first but he falls harder
3rd Act Breakup?: Nope
Final Thoughts: I loved this. It’s up there with Juniper Hill for my favorite Edens book, which is saying something since Juniper Hill is one of my favorite books in general. Mateo was so sweet and the moments with Vera & Allie were adorable. I also really loved Vera’s relationship with Harrison & Anne and how they took her in as their own 🥹 The lack of a third act breakup was also great. Overall, it kept me glued to the page, giggling and crying and I loved every minute of it.

A great conclusion to the Edens. While they are all interconnected standalones , I’d say that to read this one you have to read at least Crimison River first! As the story is truly interconnected.
I really loved Vera , I didn’t know what to expect and I was surprised on how well I connected to her story. She had a lot of trauma but she was able to work through it and she was very resilient. There was a particular scene were I had to pause reading because of the second hand embarassement but that’s just me lol.
In the end she worked for what she wanted and was an amazing human being.
Mateo was nice, I liked how he easily protected Vera and he tried to always uplift her. He never treated her like she was broken. But I found him a bit bland 😅
I wonder if we’ll ever get a next gen book. I would love to rrad about all the kids
