Emily Klepp’s books always break my heart and put it back together again. Watch Her Bend was no different! I was excited to read about Dax after getting a glimpse of him in the previous book. I loved the patient/doctor relationship that Dax and Ari had. They built such a strong relationship without even trying before they acted on their feelings. Ari’s story was heart breaking and terrifying. I feel like Emily writes about these difficult topics so accurately and so realistically. Dex was working through his own healing journey and together, Ari and Dax meshed beautifully. I was not expecting Luca but enjoyed the additional dynamic he brought in as well. I love the endings Emily always gives her characters - after suffering so much they deserve to actually feel free. Check for TWs - this can be a dark and heavy topic to read about - happy reading!
