This was such a fun read, and once again, KJ Charles nails the "unloved and forlorn aristo desperate for family and security." I was initially surprised by how we kick off Gareth and Joss's relationship, but it was ultimately the perfect jumping off point for the story, and added tension to their unlikely reunion. I loved the exploration of the Doomsday family dynamics and the tragi-comedy of a community entirely dependent on smuggling. I loved this happily every after so much, and can't wait to see Luke's story in the next book!
