With so much happening, there is little time to backtrack and bring new readers into the story. However, longtime fans will be richly rewarded with the wonderful storytelling here. The plot moves quickly between the two sets of characters and builds to an impossible to put down climax. The characters we love continue to grow as well. It’s hard to say goodbye to these great characters, but this is a great end to an epic series.

Brooke can't believe it when she sees Rafe pull up next door after all these years. Growing up, her summers were always spent with the Sullivan family in one way or another. She may have had a little crush on Rafe, ok a big crush but never thought he paid much attention to her in that way.
Rafe and Brooke reminisce about the past while working on their future. Another wonderful Sullivan story for the permanent shelf. I absolutely wish I could someone join this glorious family.

1) remove annoying people from your space that disturb you else you may accidentally feel empathy to a moon caste demon who is prejudice against humans.
2) start reading in the morning (not 6pm like me) because there is no point which you can put the book down and the need to sleep is an annoying inteference.
3)ensure reading nest is stocked with fluid and snacks as per 2) there is no point you want to put book down. It does not stop. the action. The love. The horror. The hope. The racing hearts. The fire. No stop. You will not want to stop.
4) have tissues. It is a bittersweet story.
5) you are strong and wonderful and beautiful. Listen to Natasha's advice at the front of the book.

I LOVED THIS STORY! I really enjoyed reading about the historical side of things, and how Tom and Philip managed to be together. Archie was a nasty piece of work and I really can't say I'm sad about his ending!
There is mention of horse-racing in this one but nowhere near as much as in the first, simply because it isn't the focus in here. I loved how it was still there and an important time for Wyatt and Val, but I'm also glad the emphasis was on Tom and Philip.
Two for the price of one and both thoroughly enjoyable. Absolutely recommended by me.
