That was amazing! Like really, really amazing - we often get to catch
up with characters in series as we move onto to others, but rarely do we get,
what is in essence, a reunion book.
One of the few duo's, not trio's, is our first couple. Super-duper
control freak Stefan, King of Bliss, is having a freak-out life as Jen
becomes ready to give birth to their son. This was amusing, though it
shouldn't have been so funny, to watch Stef completely lose his mind, and
very nearly his wife, until he figures things out. This is a good, old
fashioned, happily ever after and baby makes three!
In this story, we catch up with our soon-to-be-married Leo, Wolf and
Shelley from the Siren series, though we first met Wolf in Bliss. Jitters and
some uncertainty still linger though they want to be together, but just
wondering what the future will bring them. This is our transformative story,
finally figuring everything out with complete clarity
Then we have one of our Bliss couples, Laura, Rafe and Cam. We know
they just adopted their beautiful daughter, but they have been flying under
the radar lately. We see Cam quite a bit, but never really caught up with
what was going on with Rafe and Laura. This is our poignant story, these
three are emotional without being over the top. They have partially figured
out where they are and what they are doing but never did finalize anything
completely
The final trio is on the edge of losing it all. Aiden, Lexi and Lucas
had one of the bumpiest and heart-wrenching stories to get together. They
still seem like the kids of the bunch and are still trying to protect and
control things for each other as well. Lexi seems to be causing the issues,
but deeper fault lines show just where Aiden has lots to learn. Luckily, Lexi
still has her mom around to kick her butt when needed, and Aiden has several
Dom's around to set him straight.
While the whole crew is about, we do get a check in with Julian, Finn
and Danielle; Chase and Ben are around, of course Mel and Cassidy are front
and centre. No Bliss story would be complete without Max, Rye and Rachel and
Callie and Zane make their appearances as well
I have to
say, the most exciting surprise was the final chapter. The authour stated it
was for the fans, and I couldn't agree more - 'we're the best because we're
the first and have been doing it longer' and in every book, in every scene
they appear, it feels like coming home. Thank you for the Abby, Jack and Sam
fix, they only need one chapter, but they are the heart of these stories, and
no book is complete without them!
