I thought Cecelia and Colin were a fun couple. Once we got past the first introduction between them, were Colin does come off a bit aggressive for my tastes, the two have a pretty fun and lighthearted relationship for the most part. There is still the much needed serious moments where the two of them to bond and trust one another again, but it is not bogging down the book making it too serious for a fun romance read.

Whilst I did really enjoy the book I thought the conflict that was the whole reason this is a second chance romance, was not really confronted. It was addressed but it felt very fast and brushed to the side in the overall story. The story is mainly about Cecelia and Colin connecting again but it didn't feel satisfying when the issue was finally resolved. I wanted the two of them to confront it in a way that felt like the two of them had grown and we could see it, not just hear it.

Overall I am enjoying the series and this book did the job of entraining me and being a fun read. I think the next book is going to be fun if the epilogue of this book is anything to go by.
