🎧 Format: E-Book

💞 Feels: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I loved these characters. I immediately liked the main love interests, but the cast of personalities were also fleshed out so well. Or maybe it’s just that I cared about the main characters so much that they’re affection for the other players made me want to like them too. Because I really detest Soledad’s husband, Edward (he’s the worst).

The book had the trending romance premise of a dual perspective of the love interests. Which is also a great way to give the reader more information than the characters can ever fully have. The prologue for the story really sets the tone for Judah’s personality and values. Was rooting for him before Soledad even met him. He was great. How he loves his sons, how he interacts with his ex-wife and her husband, it is an understatement to say that he’s perfect.

Soledad, similarly to Judah is a selfless person. Going above and beyond to take care of her daughters and her husband – without them really realizing how she cares for them. Was so proud of her learning to prioritize her own needs. She was still taking care of her children, but standing up for herself more and more as the story went along. I was laughing and clapping at the turn of events. There were definitely a few 👀 when the story took a turn early on, I was locked in!

✅ Spinoff novella nomination:

Look forward to reading the first book about Yasmen, and the third book about Hendrix’s love story – after her talk with Soledad and Lola, I’m wondering who’s going to be her other half. Man, woman, black, white…Hendrix sounds very open-minded.
