I'm awestruck right now. This author had so many details in this story in order to answer every secret and mystery. My heart was in my chest several times. I screamed at what Eric and Jane went through. They both lost so much. I got teary eyed as Jane, and even Eric, healed over a certain awful thing. That loss was huge.

The author definitely poured her heart and soul into this book. It was apparent in the amount of love and detail that she did. Books like this, hell, characters like this, are why I love to read. I was expecting more from the ending but there is a link to a bonus if you sign up for her newsletter(I already do so that's not a big problem). I'm thinking that the bonus epilogue is going to give that to me. I also am excited for the next spinoff. I was intrigued by those characters.

I know this doesn't bother other people, but this is one of those series that ends on a cliff-hanger and the story continues into book 2. I am not a giant fan of this, and found it unsatisfying here. Other than that ... I liked Brandon and Skyler a lot (though the billionaire and the new grad story is pretty shopworn, since 50SoG there have been hundreds of these books.) As much as I liked the characters I hated that Skyler was so freaking unreasonable and cavalier about her relationship with Brandon. Over and over she acted in ways that no person has acted, Ever. It just made her seem mean and unreasonable and that makes it hard to root for the happy ending. She is delightful in other relationships (I love her relationship with her bubby and with her bff Jane!) so I still liked her, but man she is really not great at romantic partnership, and since this is a romance that made things hard. When there was not relationship DRAMA I liked this, and had things in that area been a little more nuanced and her actions more justifiable this would have been a 4. I did immediately go to book 2 (thanks Hoopla!) so we will see if things improve and if book 3 is in my future.… (plus d'informations)
