And that's a wrap on the Brown sisters' journey. And what a ride it was. I don't really like picking favourite characters in a series like this where each book focuses on a different character. However, I do believe Eve and Chloe are tied as my favourites. Though I liked Dani in her own right too.
What I enjoyed about Eve was her journey to independence, self discovery and self actualization. I could relate to this as the youngest of two sisters who are very very different. Jacob is such a character. He has a cold façade the gives way to a much warmer personality. I enjoyed the journey of them coming together, though the communication trope is not my favourite. It felt like this book was over before it even began and like the other sisters, I wanted more. I appreciate the autism representation, though I personally cannot speak to the accuracy of it. Though I do believe it is an own-voice, so I also don't feel it is my place.
Overall, this was a lovely story with a little bit of everything. It was a great close to the series. I believe that those that enjoy romance (with steam) and a fun and easy read should not hesitate to pick up this series up.
