This would have been perfect if both of the love interests hadn’t magically come back to life. Rye was fine, it added to the story. Jamie? So unnecessary 🙄 it felt like an easy out to give her the closest thing to a possible HEA. So I’m just going to ignore the last five pages and I’ll be perfectly content with how it ended.
