 "This life of ours was clear and a million."
-Devney Perry, Sable Peaks

For those wanting a Mateo focused book be prepared to side step a bit. Branching more on Vera's journey, we get her POV for part I of the book. I was slow to like Vera but she (and Mateo) won me over. Part II switches to dual POV with a majority of the plot focused on Vera pining for her crush with the last Eden, her past, and Mateo figuring out purpose. They are some real heavy hits in this book, but it all adds up to a young woman finding her hope again for family, love and life.

Goodbye Edens! Cya next re-read!

This was such a great ending to the series, I loved Mateo so much and I loved how he chose to prove himself to Vera.
I wish there had of been a bit more about the FBI agent, it was left as it was which felt weird. 
Otherwise it was great.

I loved this series but am left a bit disappointed after this story. 

I feel the character development was very much Vera only and Mateo was missing so much. 

I’m glad they got their happily ever after though.

What a fantastic conclusion to this series. I loved the closure we got to Vera's story and the peak into all their lives now.

I loved Vera and Mateo together. I love how even before they recognized each other's feelings they knew each other so well. I love how he was there for her on the hard days even before he knew her whole story. I loved how she loved little Allie. 

Honestly I just loved everything. This book made me cry a couple of times. Mateo was just so good with her grief and uncertainty. And she was so good with helping him find his purpose in life and getting him in the air again.
