Crushed But Not Defeated by Nicole Dykes
3.0
This was nice and quick, maybe a bit too quick. I get not wanting to be too detailed and I don't have a problem with that, it just seemed to jump ahead in time so rapidly that I barely had time to invest in the story.
I really liked Andrew in all the books though so I was glad to see his HEA (although I had a hard time remembering who else was who). He did seem a bit more awkward and hands-off with the kids than I would expect from a therapist but I guess it works in the context of the book. He was more about the, "you can talk to me" than about addressing anything they did say.
The repetitive phrases were kind of distracting. "He's been through hell," and then a few sentences later the same thing. Or, "he's too damn adorable," and same thing a few sentences later. Slows the momentum when I'm like wait, did I just reread a section? Although I guess slowing the momentum would at least give a sense of the passage of time lol.
Really I'm just being nitpicky though. This is a perfectly good book in a perfectly good series that is interesting and has likeable characters.
Lord have mercy though, "I crave his sexy musty scent."
