Another steamy, emotional & funny instalment in the Brown Sisters series - which I have now officially finished! And this may just be my favorite of the series. I loved Dani & her academic background and interests, as a future sociologist I found her deeply relatable. I also ADORED Zaf and the way he openly talks about and addresses boys' mental health and goes against ideals of toxic masculinity, especially as he himself has been through trauma and has needed to embrace mental and emotional health in order to get better. I also loved his entire family and how close they all were, especially with his niece Fatima which was such a wholesome relationship 😭 Yet again this is not a 5🌟 for me because of the constant inner monologue of denial that Talia Hibbert's MC and LI seem to have to have in every one of her books ("No of course I don't love him!!!!! That would be crazy!!!!!" over and over again) as well as the fact that her third act conflicts always seem so unnecessary and her endings are a bit too cheesy for my taste. Regardless I loved the Brown Sisters trilogy and Take a Hint Dani Brown is my favorite of the series so am looking forward to more from this author 😊
