This was a wonderful and heartfelt Christmas read. My emotions were pulled all over the place by this novel! It is the third book in a series and I had listened to the first book last month. I had not read book two and had no problem jumping right into this story. The author did a good job of making these books able to stand alone.
Morgan and Andrew were exactly wrong for each other. Or that was what they both kept telling themselves. But their hearts definitely didn’t get that same message and even though they both resisted, love grew between them.
I loved Morgan’s son, Grayson, and especially Andrew’s reaction to him. Grayson really looked up to the firefighter and Andrew was so kind to him, recognizing what a wonderful child he was. My emotions ran high in this story and hurt right along with Morgan and Andrew as they both tried to navigate a love that seemed impossible.
I wished there was an epilogue or a little more of a drawn out ending. The book finished a little abruptly for me and I hope that we readers may see Morgan, Andrew, and Grayson in a future novel.
