5. A joy to read! I loved Alexandra and her logical, intelligent brain. Her being into astronomy was so fun to read about, and I loved her intellectual curiosity and her way with the girls. Her learning how to connect with and earn the trust of Chase’s wards was great. I loved how real both of the girls (and Alex’s own memories/trauma from childhood) were. I’m excited to read more in this series, though I’m not sure I’ll love any of the ladies in the friend group as much as the astute, stubborn, and resourceful Alex.
