So glad that I saw it through the end with this trilogy. I felt so many different emotions throughout each of the books and this last one made me feel so happy to see Carter & Emelia find their way back to each other. No matter what obstacles life threw at them, their love was enough to overcome it

Ohh this was the perfect finale to this trilogy! I read all three books in 2 days! Loved that even though it 3 books for their HEA, it never bored me.. so much happened! And the emotions just leapt off the page..

Oh Catharina. If nothing else I can say that it’s interesting to see how significantly her writing has improved since she wrote these! Maybe in 10 more years she’ll write a good book.

I hate time jumps. Part of me finds it romantic and part of me just thinks it’s annoying and unrealistic. But DAMN if Carter and Emilia’s chemistry isn’t strong enough to make me not care about that at all. I truly had no idea how they were going to fix the conflict in book two… I couldn’t think of how. But the way it was fixed… ugh

4.5⭐️
Carter and Emi deserves the world, they are soulmates.

After years apart of just living their life they realized that it wasn't until meeting after 8years that they see they were simply existing. My main reason for not 5⭐️ this is because I felt the ending was a bit rush. I do love the realism of her forgiving but not forgetting. Yes she choose to rebuilt her relationship with Carter's family, but it will never be the same as when they were kids.

Carter will always and forever be a boy obsessed and it's fun to see that after so many years he didn't change the only thing is his mouth got dirtier.
