An unforgettable and deeply emotional conclusion to the series! Xander’s journey was filled with struggles, growth, and love. It was beautifully executed, and Derek was the perfect missing piece in his life. Their slow-burn romance, built on trust and communication, was absolutely worth it. The writing flowed smoothly, the character development was phenomenal, and the love felt incredibly real. Saxon has truly outdone herself once again!

This book is a slooooow burn. Probably the least-spicy of any Saxenverse books I've read. It made sense though, although I do think the plot was drawn out too long.
I loved that Derek (finally) held strong boundaries - Xander needed someone to push him to get help. The first 6 month gap made sense and clearly they both needed it. I could have punched Derek when his first thought at seeing Xander laugh when he got back was "he's better off without me" because SIR you never dated! There was no "with you" to compare! But that was a quick scene and resolved immediately.
I loved the ending, it did make me tear up a bit to see all of Bertha's boys happy. And the ending with Seven and Molly was so lovely - you know from their book that they were all-in for Xander, and Derek's support of that was well done.

First let me say, I love this series so much. It is one my favorite!
Zander is a character that I feel like you love or hate and that’s it. He is very love able but at the same time, heartbreaking because of everything he has been through.
I will say I am so happy that while he and seven learned to be apart and he grew. He didn’t. But his relationship with his brothers is wonderful and supportive.
I enjoyed Derek. I am glad we got to learn more about him and his likes. I will say I am happy he stood up for himself.
Overall, it ended wonderfully and made me cry. I am so happy with it.
