4.5 stars. I didn't think I could like Grace and Sawyer's story more than Julia and Jaxson's, but I did. For starters, Grace has endured a lot of unhappiness and loneliness. It's heartbreaking to read about everything she has had to experience starting from her mother's tragic death. Yet she still keeps a somewhat positive attitude and works hard everyday. She has a heart of gold and is an amazing baker. Sawyer may be cocky and arrogant, but around Grace, he can be protective and caring and sweet. Jaxson was the same way with Julia except he pissed me off with how he wanted to deny loving Julia and will always have lost points for that even though he made it up to her. This is where Sawyer doesn't disappoint and steps up like a man. He isn't perfect, but he knows Grace is broken and he has no intention of making it worse, he does whatever he can to make her laugh and smile. The side of Sawyer that adores Grace can be jealous and scary, too, like Jaxson's level of scary and threatening, if his girl is in danger or threatened. Sawyer and Jaxson's banter was hilarious because Sawyer comes off way more alpha in this book than the previous one, pretty much meeting Jaxson toe to toe. Kayla is her usual smart mouth self and Cooper is still trying to maintain order within the law even though he has temperamental Navy SEAL friends who try to skirt the fine line of the law because they care so much about justice. Anna is also present in the book briefly and I loved the big brother and little sister relationship she has with Jaxson, Sawyer and Cade. I was just happy to see Grace happy with an ending that included Sawyer and so much more. Can't wait for Cade's story because he really needs to smile more.
