A gorgeously slow burn romance that gave me all the feels! From the grumpy x sunshine dynamics protagonist, Aurora and her temporary landlord, Rhodes, to the adorable, found family vibes that brought soo much needed comfort and joy into Aurora’s life. I could’ve easily read 500 more pages!
I adored Rhodes, whose gruff standoffish demeanour hides his warmhearted and cinnamon roll centre. His love and support for his son was heart meltingly good too and as he and Aurora get to know one another (and Aurora breaks down his defences) we see a quietly protective side to him that I absolutely loved.
And given everything Aurora has experienced in her life, and emotional journey shes still working through — Rhodes, Amos (Rhodes’ teenage son) and the other Residents of Pagosa are just what she needs to fully heal and finally find a place she can call home.
We get some pretty humorous moments too which really helped with easing the tenser more emotionally scenes (my faves being the Bat and golden eagle scenes)
Overall another incredible read that slow-burn romance lovers will definitely enjoy. Just be sure to check the TWs
Also a massive thank you to Sophie (@SophieB_Reads on TikTok) for book fairying this to me, I absolutely loved it 😍❤️
