I loved Amy. She's led an extremely hard life. She's tough a hell, definitely not a pushover and the complete opposite of a doormat. I loved strength in heroines and I just don't men physical strength. Though she's tough and hasnt had an easy life, she pushed herself out it, became someone, found true friends in Lucky Harbour and even found love.
This is where Matt comes in. Matt is so incredibly UNF to the core. He is laid back, appears to be cool, calm and collected but really he is not. He's such a deep character who has had such a huge burden placed on his shoulders as he carried the blame for his failed old job and marriage. I loved getting to know Matt. He's so caring and his affection towards Amy is staggeringly beautiful and heart warming to read.
There were so many poignant moments in this book and it made it all the more bittersweet. Especially in the scenes with Amy's mother, Amy's past and memories plaguing her, Matt's past and especially with Riley. Riley was an interesting sub plot thrown into the story which was saddening but enjoyable to read about because Jill Shalvis writes in a way that her words makes her readers feel lots and lots of different emotions.
So the last book of the series I believe is up next and it is Josh and Grace's story. I'm looking forward to reading about that. We've seen Grace in the previous books but we haven't really gotten to know her at all. And Josh, we've heard lots about his job and his situation at home so I'm very interested to get to know Grace and Josh even more.
MY RATING - 5 SWOONS
