At this point it's a given that I will read anything Lasairiona writes. Her books have such a way of making you connect with the characters and their stories that you can't help but fall in love with them. And boy oh boy did I fall hard for Talia and Jagger. I think there was a level of vulnerability in this one that was so different but so well done, especially when it came to Talia's upbringing and experiences. I also thought the way Lasairiona talked about trust and intimacy was so incredibly beautiful and I actually saw that in a lot of my own experiences. This was a slower burn from her other books, but it worked perfectly for the development of these characters. I thought the spice was magnificent as always and I was over here taking notes. Las nails it every single time. I loved the emotions, I loved the care and tenderness that went into this book, and I loved the realness I felt from the words on the page. As always, I loved this book wholeheartedly and I'm so glad to have books like these, where romance and love is front and center, and the characters learn and grow both individually and collectively. Beautiful book that certainly had me feeling some type of way!! Thank you to Lasairiona for providing me with an e-ARC to read and review!
