Tristan Fucking Miles y'all!
I love a man that goes after what he wants even when who he wants comes with little demons that almost killed him. 😂
I loved the good nature relationship Tristan and Claire formed while out of the country. I loved the funny, witty and sexy banter they had but most of all i loved seeing Tristan fall in love, not just with her but with her kids too. Another thing i loved about him was how he didn't shied away from his feelings and wasn't afraid to speak on them with his brothers. He knew Claire was special and he did anything in his power to get her.
Claire was a hard one to love at first. I liked her a lot but then she would be very judgemantal based on nothing basically so it was hard getting behind what she was saying but that did changed along the way, i just wish she wasn't so hard on him when she didn't had any facts on how "bad"  Tristan or the Miles family was.
So to be honest the last 150 pages of this book was what made a 6 Star book. The amount of times i cried in those pages is unreal... I just couldn't handle the relationship Tristan had with Claire's kids, it was so damn beautiful and heartfelt that i just cried and cried... and cried.
The conflict was not it for me i confess. I understood Claire irrational decision but i also didn't. Like Tristan pointed out, she was being so damn selfish and she made everyone miserable including me. I so didn't loved that. After talking to a friend about it, i'm more amenable to that situation but it was still a hard pill to swallow. I did love how that situation was resolved by the kids and i loved it.

I obviously loved the kids. They are amazing, even Harry 😂. I loved how well they fitted in the Miles family and i can't wait for more of them and obviously more of Tristan and Claire.
