This one is a cute and enjoyable way to wrap up the Beautiful Bastard series! While my favorite couple wasn't featured heavily, seeing everyone from all the previous books in their HEA was like cocaine for my soul.
Needing a breather after finding her ex with another woman in her own bed, Pippa accepts the invitation to join her friends Ruby and Niall (from book four) and her New York friends on a wine tour vacation. At the same time, Hanna (from book three) convinces her newly divorced brother Jensen to come along. Surrounded by couples, Jensen and Pippa are paired up for the trip, and after a series of crazy coincidences, they begin to fall for one another as the days go by.
Jensen was a bit bland, but really he was just... tired. The divorce was unprovoked and sudden and his whole world became monotonous days and nights centered around his job. The more time he spends with Pippa, the more he starts to remember the days when he was fun and wild and lived life to the fullest. Pippa is always down to have a good time but is still a little bitter and peeved about her ex. As she spends more time with Jensen and things get intimate and hot fast, she begins to wonder what her life could be if she took a risk and opened her heart again. But as the vacation ends, neither of them are sure what will happen once they part ways and go back to their old lives...
My favorite part of this book was the ending chapters, a series of epilogues featuring your favorite couples as a last hurrah. A slower read than the others in this series, but a beautiful ending all the same.

4.5// Aah the end of an era. 10 books and novellas and this series managed to make me happy till the very end <3 I'm so glad we saw so much of all the characters in this book. It did cut down on pippa and jensen's time and made their story seem a bit short but I loved it all the same.
Can I just say how happy I am for George finding his own Will though? Good on you, George.
I hope all my babies live a wonderful life GO READ THESE BOOKS GUYS.

The Beautiful series is by far one of my favorites. I love the entire cast and all their stories. This one was a good wrap up for it. More on the sweet and typical side. The spicy scenes were FAR tamer and very vanilla compared to the other books in the series. But the closure of the story as a whole was good to have.
