This was such a fun series start for Hell's Belles. I've been looking forward to Sesily's story (and the backstory on our standoffish American) since Sophie's book, and this was the happily ever after she deserved. While the pace dragged a bit in the middle (primarily just because we were stuck in a conflict cycle where he keeps pushing her away for no apparent reason, and I was anxious for the backstory reveal that would make this make sense), it picks up in the final third and closes spectacularly. I loved seeing so many of our previous characters return, and I adored our friend group. Excited for Adelaide's book next and already anxious for Imogen.
