My god, I am a weepy mess. This was a masterpiece.
Romantic? YES.
Devastating? YES.
Perfect? YES.
This series has been absolutely lovely. I've cried buckets in every story, but I knew this one would gut me. And it DID. It was perfect.
There was so much humor *thanks, Mr. Paige* and navigating grief and guilt. How do you move on? How do you love again?
Ren and Major were EVERYTHING.
Ren, the widower, finds comfort in & with Major after his beloved husband's death. Major, the caretaker and teddy bear of a human, just wants to help. Yes, there's attraction, but they've set good boundaries. It's all good.
Well, feelings happen.
This story takes place over more than a year. And there's time jumps too. We see the full scope of grieving a tremendous loss and new budding love. It's as angsty and steamy as you think it will be.
Favorite moments include:
❤️ the cardinal
❤️ the scene with Ren at the therapist office
❤️ jam notes
❤️ Hikaru! He stole the show with jiji
❤️ the scene at the H Mart & H E B 😭😭😭
There was one particular scene when Ren went to sleep on Robert's side of the bed... I won't go into details to avoid spoilers, but I absolutely lost it. Like, nasty ugly crying. It was so real.
I loved this series so much. Seguin and the Lost Boys really stole my heart. As much as I loved all their stories - Ren and Major were everything.
Kelly Fox, thanks for making me sob buckets on a Wednesday night. Ren and Major were everything I wanted them to be and more. ❤️❤️❤️
Don't sleep on this amazing series. It's great!
