This is one of my favorite series! The audiobooks truly permit for the storyline to come to life. I look forward to each read and have always anticipated the unfolding narrative for the books to come. This book was no different. 

Dan, Amy, the Cahill family, and their secrets, all face a showdown of desires and inner truth. Characters you couldn't help but mistrust and despise for their cunning and deceit at the beginning of this series have now become more human, layered and loveable. In beginning this series, I hadn't  intended on ever finding Ian and Natalie to be noteworthy characters with lengthy character growth, and yet... here we are. It's a relief to finally see the missing pieces of the plot coming together in this book. Where the true origins and understanding of the family line, Grace and Dan and Amy's future comes to light.
