This story had way too many holes in it. Although I like Ridley and Freya, there were things in this story that didn't make any sense. The missing twin and the way Freya let everyone run over her.
It was not a terrible book but it was just not as good as some of the other books.

Love it

Ridley meets Freya in Kitt & Cores book. Freya is a shy little thing. No one barely notices her. What happens when Ridley does?

4.5 Dirty Mother Stars

I am enjoying this series immensely, I think I like it so much because it’s got the MC feel but with this awesome twist.

This was a little more emotional for me, because of the last book. I do like how the author brings all the characters together. It helps my heart a lot to see when the good ones get a HEA.

I want to hurt anyone who was ever mean to Freya, this women has not had it easy. But I love her spunk once she found it that is.

Ridley hmmm I liked him and I am glad he was who Freya needed but I kinda wanted to see him heal a little more from his loses.

I freaking loved the ending. :)

Can’t wait for the next audiobook installment these narrators really are bringing this series to life. I love it.

*You don't have to like my review but its 100% my opinion, and I am allowed to have it.*

I was disappointed in this book. The timeline for everything was way off and had me questioning my memory the entire book. I felt like I didn't get to know Ridley and Freya (I had to go look her name up because I'd already forgotten it and I finished the book yesterday) at all. I didn't like this book at all, which makes me sad because I was looking forward to Ridley's story.

Ridley lost his wife and he vowed he would never enter a relationship or marry again. Asking for a favor from a friend, he doesn't realize it will end in tragedy and loosely connect him to Freya Capone. Beautiful isn't a strong enough word to describe hr, but Ridley think she is that, her sadness though unsettles him. Ridley can't afford the distraction but Freya has burrowed herself into his heart and he doesn't know what to do about it.

I am not sure about this one, I thought Ridley was a bit of a jerk and Freya is so vulnerable. I wanted to like this but struggled a bit with Ridley and how his story unfolded. Might reread to see if it was just my mood.

Freya and Ridley, very good story. We see more of the characters from all her series and everything was very cohesive without a lot of convoluted schemes going on. The very minor niggle I had was the way Ridley just let her be forgotten for 2 weeks without worrying about her despite her fragile mental state. If that had been real life and she was suffering from grief depression his abandonment could have been the final straw. That aside, this is one of the better ones without a lot of added crap at the end that really didn't need to be there. Ridley was pretty consistent, though still healing from his own loss, with his claim of Freya once he got his head out of his ass. Like real life, LLV always shows the conflict men and women go through during the growth of a relationship, the good, bad, and the very ugly.

I'm just going with it. Beware if you can't deal with story details being different from what had been stated in previous books or previous parts in the book you should skip. I'm still going to read the next one, I'm on a mission. 2.5 star read. I listened to the audio book. This book like the others in this series had issues with the author mixing of facts previously stated.
