MY REVIEW:

So this story actually starts at the end of the previous book Powerless. Winter and Theo are at each others throats at the end of Powerless.

From here we get to see where Winter and Theo’s story starts to develop. They have a push and pull relationship. Winter wants Theo in a way she’s never wanted another man including her ex-husband and Theo wants her just the same.

“But all I see is a firecracker who needs my help to work out some aggression. And I wouldn’t be mad at helping her with that. Not even a little. I’m philanthropic that way.”

Winter has been spoken about in the previous book that I read (I didn’t read the first book Summer’s story) but she wasn’t spoken about in a good way. It seemed like she was a jerk and didn’t treat her sister right.

“Dude. I think I’m in love with your sister-in-law. She’s so fiery.”

But it seems like Winter’s come to a realization that having a relationship with her sister might be the best thing for her. Especially because she has no one else in the world that wants to help her. So she decides to form a relationship with her sister. She also decides to leave all the toxic people in her life and start over closer to Summer.

“Careful, that one’s got claws,” Cade offers right as Willa shoves a pointy elbow into his ribs. I grin. “That’s okay. I like having my back scratched.”

This is where she meets Theo, Theo is a bull rider that has a very specific goal that he has in mind and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to win. He meets Winter and for a little while he lets himself be distracted. But he knows both him and Winter are not ready for each other, since she’s also fresh out of a marriage.

“I think I like you because you are a heart-stopping, jaw-dropping type of beautiful.”

Fast forward and surprise Winter ends up pregnant.

So going into this story I thought I wasn’t going to like Winter because of how she was previously, but I found myself really enjoying her as a person and seeing how everyone in her life failed her. No one had her back and no one was there for her in anyway, so she’s learned to only trust herself. I started to really feel for her and understand why she was the way she was.

“Watch your f**king tone when you’re talking to the mother of my child.”

I also love that she decided to work on her relationship with her sister and do the work it took to mend the relationship. No to mention she gave up on her toxic family and ex. I loved seeing her and Summer become closer and depend on each other. I also loved her relationship with Sloane, which we saw budding in the previous book. Summer’s new family and friends took Winter in and finally she had people she could trust.

Enter Theo back into her life after all of this takes place and he finds out he has a kid. Winter has been healing and Theo has been making a name for himself. It seems like they’re finally in a place where they can be in each others lives.

“He said, ‘Mom, I met her.’ And I said, ‘Who?’” Loretta’s lips curve up, her eyes taking on a faraway look. “He said, ‘The woman I’m going to marry one day.’”

I loved watching Theo and Winter take care of Vivi, and how Theo stepped in with no question as to if he’d take care of his kid. Absolutely loved them together. And how he helped Winter believe that she could depend on him and he would be there for her.

“That night we were reckless.” His voice cracks. “But god, I’d be reckless with you over and over again if it means ending up here.”

Theo was so sweet this whole book, he saw deeper than the exterior and the tough person that Winter had to show everyone. He saw her for who she really was. He also saw how people hurt her and how many people let her down, he did his best not to be one of those people.

Ahhh I am just in love with Theo and Winter and Vivi. Omg and we can’t forget the rest of the Eaton family. Harvey is absolutely my favorite!

Elsie Silver is now one of my favorite authors and her books will be on pre-order until further notice.

She loves cooking and trying new foods, traveling, and spending time with her boys–especially outdoors.

It’s during this time that she can sip a cup of hot coffee and dream up a fictional world full of romantic stories to share with her readers.
