Review: Beautiful style with lots of emotion
Rating: 4 out of 5

This story took my interest right from the start with its almost poetic style. Sometimes I’d stop and just let the words dance in my head for a bit.Destiny Burnside has had a serious rough patch. I felt for her and her situation from the start. Her issues are real issues and easily relatable like the sibling rivalries after the loss of their parents. She’s also a very unique and quirky character. Her whole family was made up of quirky personalities.Now, Hefin is a unique character. He has issues himself, which have stemmed from his divorce. But, he has taken his past mistakes to heart. He’s controlled by them, and can’t seem to fully step away from his past. Without this one flaw, he’s absolutely perfect.The plot itself was intriguing and frustrating all rolled into one. When the big obstacle for Des and Hefin became apparent, I was quite frankly shocked! But, then the way Destiny responded to the problem was quite frankly even more shocking. Let’s just say that Des is a WHOLE lot more braver than me! I admired her for it, though. But, sometimes it just seemed like heartbreaking torture to me. Destiny was good about doing things that had me laughing right alongside of Hefin to make up for the gloom. It really felt like such a bittersweet story throughout most of it. There were some real tearjerking, heartbreaking moments. But…it’s all worth it in the end! I truly look forward to the rest of the Burnside Series.Warnings: strong language, sexual content*I received a copy via NetGalley and Random House Group-Loveswept in exchange for an honest review.*
