 This is another wonderful addition to this series which has become one of my favorite series as once I get into the story, it's hard to stop until I'm at the end and then I keep wanting more!

I loved being able to read about Claire, Jamie, Ian, Brianna, Roger, the kids, Rollo and some other characters that have become a part of the Fraser clan though my heart ached for the losses that happened in this book though I knew they were coming because I happened to accidentally look at some spoiler reviews but my heart still ached.

I am so very happy that Ian and Rachel are married in this book and am so excited to see what their future is like which will hopefully be filled with as much happiness as possible for them who have had their fair share of losses and struggles.

I continue to love reading about Claire and Jamie who have also had to deal with their fair share of hardships and I'm so glad that they are able to eventually make it back to Fraser's ridge.

Looking forward to the next book and I will certainly be sad when the series does eventually end. Highly recommend this series in general!
