Mend
by Autumn Grey
3.5 ⭐️’s
Book 3 of a trilogy. Final book answers all the questions.
”You, ma belle, are my light. The beacon that calls me home.”
Recap of Characters:
Remington (33, Parisian, famous painter, family has a vineyard/winery):
Remington is a widower with a 5 year old son. He is a wonderful father and a sexy, sexy man in and out of the bedroom.
Selene (26, plus size model):
Selene is in Paris for a 3 month modeling gig. She has been divorced for about 2 years. She has a strong backbone and doesn’t give up.
The Story
This story picks up where the Book 2 cliffhanger left off. Selene has some memory problems when she wakes up, but recovers well enough.
Both Selene and Remington’s families play a bigger role in this final installment and the villain is revealed pretty early on.
My Thoughts
I guessed who the villain was but the family connection seemed very far fetched and I had quite a bit of a problem buying into that. The reveal of the villain happened pretty early on and I really liked that. It allowed the other plot lines to play out without feeling rushed.
The theme of this book (besides a slightly implausible plot) is forgiveness. People have certainly been secretive and some pretty explosive things are revealed that impact several of the characters. Additionally, Remington’s father seems to want his son’s forgiveness after he treated him like crap since forever. Why? 🤔 This was another thing that kind of felt out of left field.
This was another short book (around 120 pages) so there was a lot packed in. I think a bit longer story to flesh out some of the items in this book would have been better because I was kind of scratching my head and wondering why someone of the people were acting certain ways.
Overall, this was enjoyable. Selene and Remington were easy to like and the supporting characters added to the story (for the most part). The story wraps up well and has a few twists and lots of steamy scenes along the way to keep the reader engaged.
Quotes:
“Love is what remains when we let our reservations melt away, when we let our demons come out to play”
“Let me go before that enlarged ego knocks me off the bed.”
“I’m possessive, jealous and there is a very good chance I will shackle your wrist to mine. I may even growl when any man dares to stare at you for longer than three seconds.”
“I met her, and somehow I knew she would change my life.”
“If I asked you to describe her in one word, what would it be?”
“Mine.”
“Your strength to pick up the pieces of a shattered life, spread your wings and fly, astounds me.”
“You had my heart even before I had a chance to give it to you.”
