 I can't give this story enough stars! 5.75 doesn't give it justice! 
Beau and Bailey are so perfect together!

Great banter and relatable characters with a beautiful HEA. Als always, I appreciate the representation Elsie gives us of mental health struggles in relationships and the open-arm acceptance of partners and family.

I read this in one sitting. I'm not even joking, I started it about 4 hours ago and I'm already done.

Beau was everything I could've hoped for and more. I was giggling and kicking my feet at the antics between him and Bailey. 

I don't really have much else to say, because this entire series is perfection and I'm already planning a reread. I cannot wait to see what Elsie Silver releases next.
