i’m pretty disappointed i just really thought i’d like it more from the build up in the last book but i ended up barely caring about the MCs. i did like the side plot a lot and i KNEW
uncle oran was sus before they left for raylan’s ranch
so it was a satisfying reveal. beyond that this was a chore to get through and it’s making me dread the last book.

 i didn’t like the way riona’s character was dealt with either - the fact that
she ended up moving to tennessee for him and abandoning the job she’d grafted so hard for
felt like the opposite of a happy ever after. dante joking about
her changing her mind about wanting kids
left a bad taste in my mouth too. 

beyond that their relationship didn’t really feel believable or click with me so i just wasn’t invested in them in the slightest i actually would’ve preferred for
them to have stayed broken up
if i’m honest i would’ve been more satisfied had it ended that way.
