⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I MISSED MY BABIES.
A baby? Ok sure.
THE MOVIE CRYING SCENE OMG MY HEART. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED SUCH EMOTION PLS I WAS BAWLING MY EYES OUT!!!
It if there’s ONE ick I have with this book, it’s when the authors attempts to describe art. If it’s paintings or music or dancing - please stop. It’s so cringe and I always end up imagining it as really bad.
I despise weddings.

When you think it can’t get any worse, it does.
Only thing positive is that doesn't have Charlie almost at all. His breadcrumbs are still best part of book and please let's not have him talking to self-righteous asshole Farrow makes me hate him even more. Imagine thinking anyone would be jealous of Marrow "love" especially Charlie he saw what true love is in his parents and uncles and aunts.
Now on to rant /review :
My mood while reading this book was boredom and angry.
Using Loren and Lilo to create some cheap drama, playing with emotions of original series readers is disgusting and disrespectful.Just leave them and core six alone like they been doing that this whole series not having core six having any lines to say.
Marrow why do they have four books?! I feel like they been dating at most 4 months and they getting married and having kid..WTF all while Maximoff still has no job.
Maximoff and Farrow are on highest level self- absorbed, arrogant assholes and all of their scenes are without any emotional connection and completed with m/m fetishization.
Wolf scout in alu 32 times, wolf scout in hlu 81 times so there is that.
This better be their last book I don't even wanna see them in others books. Can they go on honeymoon are never return or Maximoff get a job and stop playing "hero" of all families.
So Donnelly who is grown ass man 27 years old that is acting like 15 year old kid can't take care of uncle's child just so Maximoff and Farrow take that baby. That baby is not dog that Donnelly can't give them a baby, law doesn't exist for them I guess. Still is better then Jane with marrow kid think for 1 minute before you write shit like that.
Donnelly is too much in this book everything he said or does is cringy like white trash baby...no words.
Also that bodyguards have millions and millions followers that is so ridiculous anyway I only like are Banks and Akara.
KBR need to get out their bubble where they are only listening praising of 50 year old Facebook soccer mom's that get off on fetishizing m/m couples. Rest of kids deserve their own spin off or nothing at all this bodyguard/client is overdone and overused stop already.
Next book is Oscar and Jack who asked or cares about them when most kids of core six don't have their books.
Reread original series don't read this.

OK I'm not gonna say this book was bad but overall I don't think I needed it to be written it was kind of like a novella but it was actually needed for a series development the book was good but overall I don't think I'll remember it in a week or two and it did take me a week to read so basically my only problem is if they didn't write it and this was just kind of like the side characters and then we got a different book and like every once in a while it would be brought up that would have been better in my opinion

This story was sadly only slightly better than books 4+5. If it wasn't for my adoration for Maximoff and Farrow, I wouldn't have enjoyed reading it as much as I actually did.
And one thing I realized pretty early on was the fact that Jane and Thatcher were way less prominent here than Maximoff and Farrow have been prominent in book 4+5 which could have also been about them rather than Jane's and Thatcher's story.
Well, back to topic. The plot here was less all over the place than the last two books but there were still many plot holes and scenes that didn't do much for the story itself. Scenes that had me question their purpose for this story. Scenes that didn't add much value. And I truly wish that this book has been more about the wedding planning and things that might have gone wrong on the way to the wedding day. Instead we got lots of little scenes with unnecessary drama which weren't taken up on later or (IMO)added no real value to the storyline itself. The scene that bugs me most was when Maximoff and Jane have been in the Mall, Thatcher and Farrow "rescued" them and the media didn't go mad about Ripley. It was never, not once, mentioned that the media went crazy when learned about Ripley.
And we got lots of internal adoration dialogues with how much Maximoff adores and loves Farrow and vice versa.
That being said, my opinion is that the wedding story had great potential and we just scratched on the surface of said potential. But once on the train of the Like Us series, I don't think I can simply stop here and will give every book a fair chance, even though I seem highly critical at the moment. We'll see how this world progresses.
