Thank you NetGalley and Forever for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.
This is the 4th book in the series, which I did not know going into it. It didn’t diminish my understanding of the novel and can definitely be read as a stand-alone. I adored the Jane Austen quotes at the beginning of each chapter. Other Austen enthusiasts will appreciate this touch as well.
As a huge rescue advocate, I had a few gripes regarding the authors featured breed choices at first, but I appreciated her efforts. I also revoked my complaints when a rescue named Cupcake was introduced towards the end.
I normally do not like the miscommunication trope, but what happens in the third act actually works from George’s POV. I loved when his meddling band members talked sense into him through lots of sarcasm.
My biggest complaint is that the romance between the MC’s felt very juvenile for the ages they were meant to be. They all would have benefited from a good bit of therapy.
Overall, this was cute and fun, but not as memorable as I had hoped.
