I got this recommended by multiple people on a thread for why choose books with neurodiverse characters, so I was excited to read this.

After initially reading a couple of scenes with Devon, who is definitely some shade of neurodiverse, I got even more into excited cause I loved him. But that excitement was pretty quickly replaced by being disturbed at how especially the MMCs treat Devon.

They treat him like a child, constantly make comments that he needs a keeper, and just generally groan about his behavior in a pretty bad way. I thought I could make it through that somehow cause I wanted to know how the story develops but eventually I got too annoyed at it when the same belittling comments happened over and over again.

Please don't write neurodiverse characters if you intent on treating them like who they are is fundamentally wrong.

I felt zero chemistry between any of the characters and didn’t like Sasha. Maybe RH just isn’t for me

Non-stop surprises

This is my second time around reading this book. The last was when it was in three book box sets. I never ceases to amaze me how much I love these characters and their story.
It would be heaven to live with five men to love you and take care of you. Sasha is such a lucky woman! Everything she goes through she still keeps a great outlook on life.
Serena Akeroyd always keeps you guessing what's going to happen next and never lets you down. I can't wait to read the second book while I wait for the last book. I highly recommend you read this series.
Hers to Keep is a RH book narrated by Shane East and Hollie Jackson. They do an amazing job of bringing Sacha, Kurt, Devon, Andre, and Sawyer to life. I've read this book several times and it was amazing to listen to it making it even better experience. Serena Akeroyd does such a great job developing the characters that you fall in love with them each time you read or inthis case listen to the book. Shane East does an excellent job of distinguishing each of the men's voices. absolutely loved this ❤

slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

idk this wasn’t what I thought it would be. imo I can’t understand how a book with such little conflict (that’s shown - it sure was mentioned a lot) can be this long and not be finished. I was shocked when I saw there is a second 500+ page book. I guess the problems I had w it make sense now that I know the story isn’t finished lmao.
