Wow, I didn’t
know how this could work out and am completely happy on how it did! Marcella
and Maddox continue their story, this time in her world, not his. While we
get to see what Maddox was up to while away form Marcella, we also see how he
is always going to be himself. He doesn’t conform, he doesn’t submit, he won’t
toe the line, but he will do whatever he has to in order to be in Marcella’s
world to be with her. Marcella is no slouch either, she grows up from the princess
she was to the queen she is, all Vitiello and the perfect blend of her mother
and father. The differences can’t keep these two apart, the bond between them
too strong no matter the test. Both of these characters come into their own,
are strong alone and invincible together. This is them figuring out how they
will work in the world they have chosen to live in, and still be themselves.
They do that and more <3 Bonus, we get
a chapter from Aria’s POV, and it was beautiful and showed the strength she
still has in her family. One of the best things was when Luca would get so
mad, and Aria would simply place her hand on his arm to calm him down. Amo is
front and centre, Luca’s heir in every way, moving from boy to man. Gianna
and Matteo have their moments, one of the best when Matteo is on the phone
and Gianna and Isa are talking to him behind the scenes 😊
Matteo and Gianna still buck the system in their own ways, helping out our lovebirds
as only they can! Growl is around, because, duh, puppies, but also he can
relate in being an outsider finding his way, and he and Maddox find that
common ground. It was great to see the characters we know and love, but even if
you hadn’t read their books, their presence and reasoning is explained, without
it being redundant if you already know them This first
story in the next gen sucked me in and reminded me why I love the stories of
the New York Famiglia so much. They were the ones I fell in love with first,
and this is only extending the love story! |
