Because this woman was an enigma, and I’d always had a thing for puzzles.

I quite enjoyed Wilder and Iris's story. The best friend's little sister is always a great trope - it has the sense of the forbidden without straying into the taboo and it is also interesting seeing the characters learn new things about the other (especially the it has been a while since they've had contact - like Wilder and Iris. These two had a bit of a slow burn but when they did come together, the chemistry was on fire. I enjoyed seeing Iris finally find a home in Wilder and Calamity - and I'm a little sad this series has come to an end.
