emotional funny hopeful medium-paced

This is the sixth installment in Kelsie Hoss's "Hello" series, and it brings us back to the small town of Cottonwood Falls. This time, we follow the story of Rit, a reformed player, and his journey towards redemption and romance.

The series has had its ups and downs for me, and while some books have been a hit, others have felt a bit lackluster. This one falls somewhere in the middle for me. It's got its charming moments, especially with Rit's character development. Seeing him grow and turn into a bit of a romantic was a nice.

One thing I did enjoy was the humor sprinkled throughout the book. Kelsie Hoss has a knack for writing witty dialogue and funny situations that keep things light and entertaining. However, I wish her books could have a bit more "guts" or "grit" to keep the interest levels high. Some parts felt a bit predictable and lacked the punch needed to make it truly memorable.

I feel the series is starting to lose its spark. The audiobook format does add a nice layer to the experience, with the narrator bringing the characters to life in a way that reading might not, however still not a fan of them, but think I am getting use to them.

I have access to one more in this series through Libby, and after that I think I will leave it there.


I decided after reading this one that I definitely needed to take a break from this series. I fully plan on picking them back up in a little while, because I do enjoy them, however, it got to be a little monotonous. And the third act breakups are just wearing on me. In this series in particular, I find most of the breakups to be stupid. So I'm taking a break for now.

Thank you for the opportunity of reading this ARC. Such a beautiful book. She is one of my favorite authors. Love the body positivity. Rhett was one of my favorites characters since book one. This is a second chance romance, high school sweethearts that needed to grow together and find themselves. Learn how to forgive and accept they’ve not perfect. Totally recommend it. This book is spicy, fun and will make you shed some tears

Loved this story! 
Rhett and Magnolia have seen there fair share of love & loss
The trivial nature of feeling betrayal never really goes away. Only time and patience can heal those kinds of wounds

Rhett and Magnolia have similar personalities but Maggie is not one that easily forgives.
I love how Rhett helps Maggie develop and also isn’t afraid to challenge her when she goes overboard

Such great character development which is always something I enjoy reading about!
