I think one thing this book taught me is never say never! I always swore my book boyfriend would come from another book I read, but here we are and I'm swooning over Cade his grumpy outward demeanor and all, declaring another book boyfriend, lol.

Gosh I just adore Willa and Cade so much, they are truly the fairytale I envision when I think about opposites attacked. The steamy scenes, dear god please take me! Willa I also feel is the version of me I wish I could be while I, like Cade, had to grow up fast and become responsible. I always felt that I could never be my age as a kid and had to grow up faster, mature faster and be responsible faster. I connected with them so much.

And Luke oh dear sweet Luke, this boy gets you in the feels. Being a momma, he melted me in so many facets and reminds me of my own son. I try so dearly to not give away details, so I don't know if this is the best review. I will say that I'm usually not for a slow build-up, however, this was a steady slow build-up I could get with. It didn't feel too angsty like with Rhett and Summer. It felt like the right speed for character development for both Willa and Cade, of course mostly Cade throughout the majority of the book and I'm always here for fantastic character development!

Lastly the narrators. I'll be honest I'm not a huge fan of Stephan Dexter, can't really say why just am not. However they crushed this performance and so did Vanessa Edwin! Truly took on the characters in this story and loved it.

I truly hope there is going to be more to this series than just Rhett, Cade and Jasper. I'd love to learn about Beau, Bailey Jensen and maybe even a backstory to the Jensen boys which are brought up so much for being such turds.
