um…I WANT MORE.
• Tristan’s relationship with Claire’s 3 boys (also now his boys) was something so special and adorable. *Also their first interaction together was hilarious.* Tristan is just about everything I’d want in a partner. He’s attentive, caring, trustworthy, smart, and a great father/father figure.
• Idc what y’all say, some of y’all just didn’t understand Claire like I did. Her grief/guilt was SO important and just SO real. I wasn’t mad at her for how she reacted to things…I mean she’s known her ex-husband since they were in college. I’d imagine that she’d have the hardest time truly moving on and accepting the fact that there is someone equally as amazing (maybe even more so) that’s there for her and her kids and loves all of them unconditionally. Yes, she has her flaws, no character is truly flawless…but she is a mother and a widow.
• Claire and Tristan’s relationship was just so RAW and REAL. Communication wasn’t perfect, but it was natural and flowed well. They had super INTENSE chemistry and the tension???? Yeah.
