I'm confused why so many people said that this was the worst in the series??
I found this book really enjoyable and loved Bailey and Beau. And without saying too much, I think Bailey's emotions were completely reasonable and I really enjoyed her character.

Beau Eaton needs something to bring him back to life…and it might just be Bailey Jansen, beautiful local bartender and Beau’s…fake fiancée?
I feel like I’ve seen mixed reviews on this one, but I honestly loved it. Beau is such a sweetheart, and I adored his relationship with Bailey—the protectiveness, the we’ll-save-each-other vibes, the golden-retriever-but-a-little-bit-darker energy? All perfection, and I truly didn’t want to put this one down.
I know I haven’t shut up about this series lately, but I genuinely loved all of the books, and I’m so sad to see it come to an end—but so glad it got such a beautiful ending with this book! Also, if you have the Bloom editions, you know there are Harvey bonus chapters in each book—taken together, those make up what I consider the sixth love story of the series and I absolutely LOVE them. (If they ever get bound into their own novella I 10000% would buy, just saying.)
Final series ranking: Reckless > Heartless > Hopeless > Powerless > Flawless.
