Whelp, Catherine did it again! Her writing, story-telling, character/relationship development, the suspense/mystery, it was just everything I hoped for with this book and more. This is possibly my new favorite in the series.

My heart was absolutely breaking for Sutton from the prologue. Everything she went through, the strength she possessed, the way she took care of Luka, her son... wow, what a woman. She truly may be my favorite fmc in the series. I really related to and saw so much of my mother and my younger self in her and Luka's situation.

Cope. This man 🥵❤. He was truly just such a fierce protector and caretaker. I know we believed his brother, Shep, to be the protector and caretaker of the family, but honestly, I think Cope also had that quality, maybe even more so than Shep. I really felt for him, and the weight of his past that he had been carrying. I loved that he confided in Sutton and found a person that could truly help him begin to heal. Also, the banter was bantering and the "talk" was talking... IYKWIM. Also, his nickname for Sutton *SIGH* 🥹❤.

Cope and Sutton together.... FIREWORKS! I loved them! They were absolutely perfect for each other, and I really enjoyed how their relationship developed. Cope allowed Sutton her independence while still supporting her and giving her that "safe place" for her and Luka. And, Sutton allowed Cope to really breathe again and find peace within the storm that had been raging in his life.

And... in true Catherine fashion, the mystery was mysterying. She got me again. I thought I had it figured out, but well, she pieced it all together in a way I did not expect.

Also, I had the privilege of also listening to the Audiobook, and man, oh man! It was 🔥. Connor Crais and Erin Mallon did a fantastic job bringing these two characters to life. Though, I would not expect anything less from those two. It was absolutely perfect and if you have a chance to listen to the book, you should. You will not be disappointed.
