What a sweet love story
I just love Olivia's way with words. She weaves a story that is so calming to the soul. Her sense of humor keeps me chuckling throughout the book. This couple DeShondra Leman and Isaiah " Bleu" Neary are just so sweet. Their attraction to each other was strong and instant. DeShondra did not remember meeting him years ago until his brother Gabriel reminded her of the guy she met at a conference. Bleu never forgot her and had been looking for her since. She was the perfect match for him.
Olivia revealed things about the Neary family never revealed in the previous books. Josiah Neary, the boys father, is just one funny down to earth man. The brothers relationships with each other are so accurately portrayed, I felt as though I were standing there in their midst. DeAndre, DeShondra's twin was a special jackass who got what he deserved in the end as did DeShondra's ex. Even his dog Mr. Wellington abandoned him.
Even things about Maya Leman, DeShondra's mother was revealed. DeShondra finally got a better understanding why her mother did the things she did and could now appreciate her mother's gifts instead of being resentful of them.
This couple was so loving and giving that they spread their love to everyone around them and giving to them from their heart. Dr. Isaiah Neary used his doctorate degree to help those often left behind after making a single mistake. His misfits of "mechanicals" were so grateful for being given a second chance, they worked extra hard to make sure Bleu's Crew was successful. My only wish for DeShondra and Isaiah was that they would have had twins or triplets to include in their HEA instead of just one baby. Just wishful thinking. I really enjoyed reading this story and of the previous ones about the Neary brothers.
