So this book definitely took me by surprise not only in the manner I completely inhaled the entirety of it. Picked it up, had no recollection of why I had added it to the library in the first place, but it somehow felt right for the moment and right it was! Already a fifth in, I noticed that it unfortunately was the second part of a series but for the enjoyment of this book alone it didn’t have a negative effect for me at all. I enjoyed watching Danika grow into her emotions tremendously, as she’s such a fierce and strong woman and just had to learn to allow others to take care of her as well, sometimes. Zaf, with his kind, kind heart and the lessons he learned from his past, but still more applies to his trainees than to himself, also needed Dani so much – watching them grow together in more sense than one was simply so heartwarming. This book also made me cry more times than I wanted to count – because it was so beautifully written and also had some really heartfelt passages on grief and the journey after loss. Safe to say, I devoured this book and onto the “Comfort Book” shelf it goes for me. This is a recommendation I’ll gladly dish out to everyone loving romances, as it’s so genuine and cute and comforting and simply a really good read.
