Perhaps I was too optimistic about this one. It was still good but definitely my least favorite in the series.
First, I do think MacLean did a good job of redeeming Ewan. It wasn’t an instant change/penance. I actually would’ve liked more Ewan pov scenes.
Grace is a strong character who has accomplished so much. But I never fully connected with her. She was closed off to a lot of people in her life. This is completely understandable, but she also came off as closed off from the reader. She also talked around things which I found annoying.
I don’t have a big issue with the actual romance, but the pacing was a little off. Grace and Ewan had the same conversation over and over again. Maybe if there was additional conflicts it would’ve been better. There was one that could’ve been explored, but it was glossed over.
I did like the ending. I don’t want to go into spoilers, but I Liked the choices the characters made. I have some questions about the logistics, but overall I was happy.
I would still really like a novella or book for Nik and Nora (I think that’s her name).
Thanks for reading!
