This was a great wrap-up (at least so far) to the Souther Eclectic series. Duffy and Lucy have a long history that ar first seems to get brushed aside when Lucy returns to town. But I really liked how that shared past gradually came to a head and became very important in a few ways.
Duffy is a great character that often got a little harshly judged by his cousins and family - he has some growing up to do and some issues to figure out (his ex-wife), but he's such a good and geniune person. I couldn't help but like him.
Lucy is struggling with the fact that she isn't struggling with the death of her husband. Throw in a very large helping of meddling/controlling in-laws, and her life isn't feeling so great right now. Lucy has a lot to deal with and worries that she can't keep up with everything - and that may mean cutting Duffy out of her life.
Their romance was a slow, sweet one, and I loved every second they were together (even when they were arguing).
