I really love the whole premise/idea for this book. It was one of my most anticipated reads/releases in 2024. I really love Rhain's sisters, they brought me so much laughter. My heart just goes out to Valencia for what she had to endure with her deceased husband.
Sadly, this book just fell short. The story is progressed really really slow and the ending felt really rushed to quickly tied everything up with Valencia and Rhain suddenly confessing their love for each other. I just wished we got more moments of our heroine and hero together alone. Although this book didn't work for me, I am excited to see what comes next in this series. Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for giving an ARC.
