Saxon James is one of my favorite authors and I will read anything she writes.
I loved seeing glimpses of Xander in the other books and his book was so good. It tackled a lot of hard topics but it was done with such care.
Xander and Derek were very cute together and Derek got Xander and by extension Seven and Molly so well.
I absolutely loved seeing the other characters living their lives as Xander’s story progressed.
I am sad the series is over but it was so good.
*Thank you foreword PR and the author for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

This is now my favorite 😍 of the series. I absolutely loved Xander and Derek. D is the greenest of green flag BFs. So glad Xander got the help he needed. He deserves all the happiness in the world. It ended just the way I hoped it would, with some of the Bertha Boys still together. Thank you Saxon for wonderful ending to the series. I will truly miss them. But we always have rereads.

“The smart thing would be for us to end this stupid pretend friendship and go our separate ways. To move on. Forget the other person exists. But when I’m with Xander, I don’t want to be smart. He feels like mine. He acts like mine.”
(ESP) Llegamos al final de la serie y voy a extrañar muchísimo a todos los chicos Bertha. Resultó imposible no encariñarse con todos ellos.
Saxon dejó para lo último la historia de Xander quien creo es el preferido de todos los que hemos leído los libros y quizás fue esto lo que a mí me jugó en contra en esta lectura. Esperaba emocionarme más y no fue así.
Igualmente los personajes son muy bellos, la narración está perfecta y todo el tema de la salud mental está tratado con el cuidado que requiere y al que la autora nos tiene acostumbrados.
El epílogo es el cierre exacto que la serie necesitaba y me dejó con el corazón feliz.
Si no conocen a estos muchachos, se los súper recomiendo!
(ENG) We've reached the end of the series, and I'm going to miss all the Bertha boys so much. I just couldn't help getting attached to all of them.
Saxon left for last and I was really looking forward to the story of Xander, who I think is the favourite of all of us who have read the books. I guess this might have played against me in this reading.
The characters are so beautifully written, the narration is perfect, and the way the author handled the mental health issue was just what I expected from her.
The epilogue was the perfect ending for the series, leaving me with a warm, fuzzy feeling.
If you haven't read these books yet, I highly recommend checking them out!
