A review by amyreadsandsails
Keepsake by Sarina Bowen

5.0

MF - contemporary romance - moderate steam - pov first dual - white MCs - autumn vibes - class gap (wealthy FMC) - mental health rep (PTSD) - hurt comfort - epistolary - grumpy/sunshine - small town - virgin (MMC) - workplace - 5 stars.

Another much darker one -
the FMC had been kidnapped in Latin America while doing humanitarian work and the MMC had escaped from a polygamist cult
- but Zach is, I think, my favorite hero of the series.

Sarina Bowen definitely writes these heroes that are all in, and just like Jude in Steadfast Zach has to realize that he's earned the love and place in the Shipley family.

As with Steadfast, the ONLY thing I didn't like about this book: frequent use of the word
crazy
and one instance of use of the word
slave (in a trivializing manner ie sex slave)
