Jules by Giulia Lagomarsino
5.0
Ivy has been disappointed by people, which makes it tough to trust. Julian “Jules” Siegrist wants to take care of someone he really cares about. He also cares a lot for those he works with. It was nice to catch up with some of the other characters that I’ve come to know. It’s a great way to keep the reader’s interest in this series.
In this latest addition, we see how much they all seem to be one big family. It gives you a sense of what our first responders must feel and go through. On the other side we have Ivy. She’s a woman with secrets who’s under stress and then finds out something that will literally change her life. She has some apprehension that I think a lot of us would feel if we were in her shoes.
Parts of this story are pretty sad so keeping tissue close at hand might be a good idea. Our author won’t let things get too heavy – quite often we get to chuckle at Jules’ expense. Other chuckle moments come when his friends/coworkers give him some advice. One scene just may have you saying “really?” It’s not all about Jules either. Ivy’s history makes an appearance, even as we get toward the end. That’s part of the page-turner moments because how can she be happy with that hanging over her head. The author does such a great job that she makes it seem so believable. Her stories just get better and better and so do her endings. The ending was very creative and I could not, in any way, hold my laugh in. I’m ready for more. Who’s next? Can’t wait!
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
