Somehow I knew Cal’s story would be my favourite. 

Asher’s depiction of alcoholism is well researched and written with respect for those who struggle with substance abuse. 

Alana is a woman after my own heart with her love of baking. I respect her need to put Cami before anyone else, even Cal’s need to get sober. 

What can I say? I’m a sucker for a golden retriever boy and a happy ending.

I love Cal. He has been my favourite of the brothers throughout the series. Don’t get me wrong, I do love a grumpy man but Cal and his sarcastic comments will always be better. 

This book was a lot more serious at points than the others. Addiction is not just a passing comment but a constant. I really like how it was discussed and handled especially in Cal’s POVs.

Lana is great too, she did annoy me sometimes but I would have probably done the same thing in most cases except when it comes to her sister but that is a minor part of the book. Cami is amazing and probably the best character. She is adorable and great at hustling.

I love the ending, not just for Cal and Lana but how the series was wrapped up for everyone.

Cami calling Cal dad almost made me cry. Their dad not getting anything made me so happy, how could he choose not to try with his own kids?? Good on grandpa for that one.

What I liked: I haven't read many second chance romances but this is definitely one of my favourites. Alana and Cami have my heart. I love how caring and kind Alana is and how protective she is of Cami. She works incredibly hard to give her everything. If I could give Alana the world I wouldS. Callahan...He..I...I love him. I love how he learns to be better, not just for other people but for himself. Him learning and discovering that everyone can get their happily ever after as long as they put in the work for it is one of my favourite parts of this book.
