That's 9/9 Baileys for me!!!!
This last one focuses on Sedona and Jameson who drifted apart when Sedona was pregnant with their their daughter. Jameson lost control with alcohol when he suffered an injury that ended his soccer career which then drove Sedona to pack up her bags and return to Lake Starlight in hopes of giving her and her daughter a better life.
I have to admit I was pretty worried about Jameson and how he was going to redeem himself after what happened. Thankfully, this book didn't make it difficult for me to get on board with him. His efforts with winning her girls back were so swoon-worthy! And the fact that he made his intentions clear without making it seem like he was pushing Sedona to do something she is isn't willing to do adds points in his favor.
Sedona, on the other hand, is definitely one of the most likeable Bailey siblings. I don't want to give anything away but what she did for Austin and Holly was so remarkable and selfless that I grew so much respect for her. And her efforts to raise a daughter with a disability as a single mother at first heightened that respect even more.
Overall, this was such a heartwarming story to wrap up the Bailey siblings' stories. If you haven't picked up the the Bailey books yet, I highly recommend you do because every single book in this series is worth it!!!!
