***4.5 ‘Southern Cross’ Stars***
I absolutely adored Inseverable and couldn’t wait to get my hands on the next book in the series and while Trinity and Callahan don’t have anything to worry about when it comes to their top spot being usurped, I thoroughly enjoyed Landon and Luci’s journey to their HEA. It was sweet, smexy, flirty story that is low on angst and high on swoon worthy moments that kept me turning the pages.
Landon is a good ‘ole southern boy who has been raised to show respect to everyone around him and help those in need. He has a huge heart that has been bruised by betrayal, but isn’t as broken as he believes it to be. I loved Landon. His charm jumped off the page and his honesty was a huge draw for me, as was his genuine appreciation for all the good things life has thrown his way.
Luci hasn’t had an easy life and worked very hard for all that she has achieved, but can’t always see the good that she has because of her past and the responsibility she has placed on her own shoulders for it. Here’s the thing with Luci, I really liked her. I loved the fact that while she has a bleeding heart and wants to help everyone out, she isn’t a doormat. She stands up for herself in such a way that you have to respect her. My issue though, and one that I couldn’t shake, was her lack of self preservation and the things she did because of it that fell into the TSTL category. I understood why behind it all, but couldn’t help but growl when they happened.
Landon and Luci’s journey to their HEA was a unique one where their beginning was all kinds of flirty and smexy and then, due to a surprising but definitely fun twist, morphing into more. The chemistry between them was clear, especially with their shared innate desire to help others, but also their joy of the simple things life had to offer. While low on angst, there is a bit of a push/pull that goes on that did frustrate a bit, but it all worked out in a way that set them both free.
Eternal is a great addition to the series. It was fun, smexy and had me smiling throughout the mass majority of it (the few exceptions due to those TSTL issues). I loved catching up with Trinity and Callahan as well as the Summers family as a whole. As for the other supporting cast of characters, this one held a mishmash of ones I really liked and others who had me growling, and not in a good way. Kee Kee is probably my favorite, but I am most interested in Becca and Hale and can’t wait to see what the future holds for them.
