I have loved diving into the Cocky Hero world with glimpses of old character favorites as secondary characters in all-new stories. It feels like my favorite characters are never going away and at the same time, I get to find new characters to love. However, this story? Yeah, this story is so much more than I expected. It had me from the very beginning. Considering that the story started with Valentine's Day at a floral shop, and considering I am a floral designer and know VERY well how insane that holiday is, I had to laugh.

Moving on to the introduction to Pixie and I about lost my mind at the cuteness. Love that goat. What really sold me though was watching Lyric and Eddie and their relationship. I felt her fears and I felt why Eddie would be drawn to her. The first part of the story was told in Lyric's point of view and the second part was told in Eddie's. Initially, I prefer alternating if that is going to be done but, in this case, seeing the second part of the story was INTEGRAL to the story. When Eddie goes all in to make things right for what he has done, it was game over. That man won me over. He is one of the swooniest book boyfriends that I have ever read.

I hope with everything that this author continues this series and gives the secondary characters their stories as well. Jace made up for his screw-up in an epic way, and the scene at the end with Paisley, Yeah, I need more of that. Soren also intrigued me. I highly recommend this book. ( )
