Jessa Hastings writing is so good! These stories draw you in even when you don’t expect to be drawn in. Unlike some of the reviews I read, I actually preferred Daisy’s story over Magnolia’s. I felt like I was rooting for her to get a happy ending and even though it ended on a slight cliffhanger, I think we got a solid ending to this part of the series. There were a few times I got lost with the switching of characters and where we were in the storyline - especially when I jumped to something I remember happening in Magonlia’s story that wasn’t previously mentioned in Daisy’s story. For this reason, I would definitely say it’s important to read the books in order up to this point.

While this book still held some similar themes, there was also some polarizing differences between Magnolia's book and Daisy's book. First and foremost being, their upbringing. Daisy was sheltered majority of her life because of the occupation that her brother has. He was her provider growing up, and it's all she's known. Getting to know her character in depth and how she navigates life and her relationship with Christian was so different, and yet--still so raw. I was rooting for Daisy and Christian's relationship, especially because they had been through similar circumstances throughout their life and previous relationships. The ending of this book had me ALL UP IN my feels.
