Excerpt #6
A sister.
My eyes dart toward my purse on the breakfast bar.
I’ve only read that letter twice, but I remember every single word.
Claire,
You may not recognize my name. Your mother did a good job of
protecting you from her past. Henry Wilkins at Northstar Bank contacted me
recently. He informed me that you refused the trust fund your mother set up for
you before her death. I hope you will reconsider your position on this, as that
money is rightfully yours.
I also hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me for my
transgressions and that you won’t hold my past against your half-sister. Nichelle
just turned seventeen last week and she’s very eager to meet you.
I hope this letter finds you well.
Your father,
Phil
Rachel rounds the breakfast bar toward Jackie and
me then holds out her hand. I spot the giant rock on her finger right away and
I’m instantly reminded of the two rings sitting on top of my bedside table in
the dorm.
“Jake and I are getting married. I was hoping
you’d be my maid of honor.”
I try not to let her see the panic I’m feeling
inside. The idea of being Rachel’s maid of honor scares the shit out of me.
Ninety percent of the time, Rachel is awesome, but it’s that ten percent that
makes me want to run screaming out of this house.

Review
WOW. If there is a book recently that has left me with a serious book
hangover, it’s this one. Right when I finished, I had to send Cassia Leo a
message on Facebook telling her exactly how much I loved this story.
When I started the book I wasn’t fully Team Adam or Team Chris. I knew
that I’d be happy either way, though I did have a slight preference. I’m not telling you who it was, but I will say
that my preference won. But there is a HEA for each character in this book.
This was one of the BEST conclusions I’ve read in a series. You don’t
wait too long for who she is going to pick. There is very little of Claire
being indecisive. Throughout the book, you can really see how Claire has grown
since we first met her in Relentless. There is just enough drama in the story
that it keeps you interested, but I didn’t feel as if this was angst ridden.
It. Was. Fabulous. Both Adam and Chris really surprised me with how *they* have
each grown since we originally met them. They both love and respect Claire, but
it’s evident early on that the love they each have for her, and her for them,
is very different.
Though I only finished this one a little over a week ago and have a TBR
list about 10 miles long, I’m thinking that I’ll be doing a re-read of the
entire series very soon. Well done, Cassia. Well, done. You hit this one out of
the park and really wrapped this series up beautifully.
