A spicy Small Town, Single Mom, Forbidden romance from USA Today bestselling author Willow Aster
Waking up in a gorgeous man’s lap definitely wasn’t on this year’s bingo card, that’s for sure.
Flying halfway across the country, exhausted and on an empty stomach, is a lot. Having to do all that while realizing I’ll be away from my little girl while she’s at her dad’s is an even worse feeling.
Enter Dylan. The irresistibly gorgeous man whose lap I collapsed in on my flight home. He is handsome, charming, and manages to sweet-talk me right into bed with his beautiful smile and twinkling hazel eyes. This is sooo unlike me, but I couldn’t help myself.
Dylan and I don’t really know each other. Plus, I live in Minnesota, and he lives in California, and anything long-term would never work. Yet the chemistry between us can’t be denied.
But then the real problem between us comes to light, and it’s a big one. A forbidden one. There’s no way we can ever be together…but how do we give up on each other when our fiery connection feels like a once-in-a-lifetime love?
All for Love is book three in the interconnected, standalone Windy Harbor series.
Willow Aster is a USA Today Bestselling Author of emotional, angsty love stories with a side of quirk. She is co-writer of The End of Men series with Tarryn Fisher and co-writer of the G.D. Taylors series with Laura Pavlov.
Loved being back in my Minnesota series! The familiarity of Windy Harbor is so comforting to me. I just love being with my people!
This entry begins with Dylan Whitman and Dahlia Granger having a meet cute on an airplane from California to Minnesota. The chemistry is palpable and it's almost love at first sight. I was digging it so much! Their fling comes with a revelation that Dahlia is a single mom with a complicated baby daddy, which doesn't phase Dylan. However, finding out that she is the daughter of his families rival, Bruce Granger... well, that might put a wrench in things.
But their connection is so strong, they agree to try keeping it on the DL until they see if it's worth the blow back they may get. Well, that Dahila would get... because Bruce is physchotic.
What follows is them adorably falling in love and facing every obstacle together. It was so sweet, it gave me a toothache. It was sexy, heartwarming, and beautiful. I truly loved every second of it.
I love this series and I can't wait for what's next.

*Thank you to Must Love Audio and the author for an ALC of this title.*
Oh, this forbidden romance is exceptionally sweet and wonderful. It's also seriously smexy. 🥵
Dahlia Granger and Dylan Whitman are perfection in my first book from Willow Aster. I love them together. Add in how Dylan and Chloe take to each other, and it's impossible not to love them. Oh, and then there's Bill in case you need further encouragement. 🐕
I'm unable to put it down! I've been sucked into the web the grandmas have knitted, and the Whitman family, extended family, and friends that are like family are so welcoming that I never want to leave! Who knew I'd find home on Lake Superior in Minnesota. 💞
This was well written. Every emotion was felt to the core, and the twist of suspense was just enough to level up the story. Even though no prior reading is necessary, I'm happily adding Willow's backlist to my TBR. 😍
I listened to the audio book. The narrators, Austin Stone and Isabelle Ruther, are absolutely fantastic in duet! The laughing, sighing, and overall realistic presentations are magnificent. I was honestly laughing aloud with them. 🎧💛🎧
It’s easily my favorite in the series and had me hooked from the cutest, slightly chaotic meet cute. The small town setting, the quiet forbidden element, and the single mom storyline all blend so effortlessly, and the narration adds an extra layer of emotion that really brings everything to life.
Dylan and Dahlia are so easy to love. Their connection sparks quickly but still feels grounded, growing into something soft, steady, and intentional. Dylan is an absolute standout, warm, emotionally open, and endlessly supportive, especially when it comes to Dahlia and Chloe. Their relationship feels natural and comforting, built on trust, communication, and genuinely choosing each other without unnecessary drama.
This book just feels good from start to finish. The family and friend group bring so much warmth and charm, and the light touch of suspense keeps things engaging without taking away from the heart of the story. It’s swoony, emotional, and full of love in all its forms.
This book just leaves you feeling full in the best way.

Huge thank you to Willow Aster and Valentine PR for the ARC! 😍 All my bookish thoughts are completely my own. ✨
I adored this book!! I have absolutely loved this entire series so far, but this was definitely my favorite! The narration between Austin Stone & Isabelle Ruther was perfection. They really brought these characters and their emotions to life & made this story even better!
Small town, forbidden romance, and a single mom. This one had me sucked in from the second they met!
Dylan and Dahlia are just perfection. The chemistry was there from the start & I loved their awkward yet sweet meet cute!! This was just a wholesome, swoony relationship that will have you absolutely loving them both! The added family history & drama that made them keep their relationship quiet had me reeling & the spice in this one did not disappoint!
Dylan and Chloe’s connection was the sweetest in this book and if you needed any more convincing you get the cutest boy Bill to bring you smiles through this story too! 🐶
This book was so full of emotion, heart, and the added suspense kept me hooked into their story! This entire friend and family group was such an amazing breathe of fresh air & one that makes you feel right at home! I loved seeing the other characters in this that I have loved so much from this series!
I can always count on Willow Aster to write a story that I never want to put down & this was no different! The perfect addition to this series!!
I love all of Willow’s Books but this was my favorite so far in the Windy Harbor Series! There was just something about Dylan and Dahlia that just had me in a puddle in the floor.
Dylan is my favorite He’s a blonde surfer with a dachshund and a dirty mouth…. What’s not to love.
Also this might be the cutest airport meet cute I ever did see. I loved it, I loved their connection and just everything about them.
✨ Small Town ✨ Single Mom ✨ Forbidden Relationship ✨ Golden Retriever Energy ✨ They both fall hard
Dylan and Dahlia are goals honestly. They two fell fast and they fell hard, but the way they connected and communicated was 100% top tier. Seriously, these two are faced with a few scenarios where everything could have fallen apart, but they face things together at every turn and I loved them.
I also loved Dahlia’s daughter Chloe and how easily Dylan fell for her as well as her mom. And of course we can’t forget Bill the dachshund.
This book had a great balance of spice and heart (Dylan has a dirty mouth) and I love this family and their antics with my whole heart!
Single mom, plane meet cute, family drama and the most too good to be true man!!! Their love burned fast! He was so good to them and I enjoyed watching her growth. Small town vibes are the best!
I love a good meet cute and this one is definitely going down as one that will be memorable! Dahlia literally ends up in Dylan’s lap! This is the third book in the Windy Harbor series and can be read as a standalone but some of these relationships are growing throughout the series so I recommend reading in order.
𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝑵𝒂𝒎𝒆𝒔: Dylan Whitman & Dahlia Granger 𝑺𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈: Windy Harbor, Minnesota and California
This book was such a fun, addictive read from start to finish. Dahlia & Dylan have that instant spark kind of romance that pulls you in right away. The connection between them felt fast but natural, and I loved how quickly their chemistry heated up. Their love story was simple and without reservations but it was the family drama that complicated things. And the family drama definitely delivered. It added just the right amount of tension and emotion to balance out the lighter, swoony moments, keeping things interesting. Between the family dynamics, the hilarious siblings, the swoony couple, this was such an enjoyable, feel good read that I flew through.
Dylan and Dahlia’s relationship starts off with a fall and a bang, literally! Their meet cute is fun and unique, and their connection is instant. You’ll get all of the spice in this one, along with emotional depth that will have you swooning.
Dylan and Dahlia meet on an airplane, and they have an instant connection that quickly turns into so much more.
Dylan is the golden retriever, fun one in the family, and Dahlia is the single mom who doesn’t allow herself to have anything just for her. They couldn’t be more different, but they seemingly fit together perfectly!
This was a fun read and as always, we get to see so many hilarious group chats! Dylan’s family was the star of the show here and how they accepted Dahlia so easily into their fold.
Move over Milo and Camden BECAUSE Dylan has just stolen your book boyfriend crown! I absolutely loved our return to the Windy Harbour series and back with the Whitmans! Dylan is such an amazing MMC, he was sweet, caring, attentive and hilarious. His love not only for Dahlia but for Chloe too was heartwarming. Dahlia was a lovely FMC, she was a great single mom and I think she was a great daughter to her father even though he didn’t deserve her. I loved how Dylan and Dahlia met, their plane meet cute was cute! I loved reading how their relationship developed and how supportive his family were once they learned the truth of his relationship. Chloe was a little cutie and let’s not forget our fave little dog Bill 🥰 I was actually disappointed when the book ended as I wanted more Thank you so much to Willow and the team at Valentine PR for this eARC in exchange for my honest review
This is the third book in the Windy Harbor series and could be read as a standalone, but would be better to read in order to have a better understanding of each character.
I really loved this one. Honestly it might just be my favorite of the series so far! I just loved the connection between Dylan and Dahlia. While to some it may seem like the relationship happened too fast, but to me they were perfect and I just loved them together. Dylan is such a swoon worthy MMC and him with Chloe was just too freaking sweet.
#Review: All For Love - Willow Aster - ARC [18+] 4.8/5✨ 3/5🌶️
Dylan and Dahlia had a different kind of first encounter, one which was for sure extra electrifying, because Dahlia passed out in an airplane and Dylan was the one catching her. It wasn't long until sparkles started to sizzle and for something more to grow between them. But the last thing on their minds was that they would be starting a very forbidden love. Would they be able to win this fight for their love?
This book was for sure really addicting, from that amazing connection between Dylan and Dahlia, to the forbidden side of their relationship. I also loved how amazing Dylan was with Dahlia's daughter, because she was a single mom who was having some issues with the father of her kid. The surprise they had knowing that what they shared couldn't last, was a devastating thing for them and I liked that they didn't gave up and that they fought so hard to keep what they had and in which believed in so madly. There was plenty of drama, but it also had so many sweet moments which melted my heart! I liked that there wasn't a third act break up, even if I was expecting one at some point, considering everything that was happening around them 😅.
I liked so much this story, having such a lovely connection between our main characters and also to a couple of the secondary ones. That forbidden feeling was everything, being the main focus of this story and it was written so good! Love is powerful enough to fight against everything and everyone and still be the one that wins.
Thank you so, so much Valentine Pr and Willow Aster for accepting and for offering me this beautiful e-ARC!🩵

If a meet cute starts with accidentally passing out in a man’s lap… I’m already invested 😂✈️💕
All for Love on audio completely swept me up—the chemistry, the banter, the tension… it was giving romcom with heat and heart in the BEST way.
🎧 Isabelle Ruther and Austin Stone absolutely killed this narration. The flirty back and forth? Perfect. The emotional moments? Hit. And when things turned spicy… yeah, they understood the assignment 🔥
Dahlia and Dylan had one of the cutest (and funniest) meet cutes I’ve read in a while, but what really got me was the heart of this story. Dahlia as a mom, her love for Chloe, and the way Dylan fits into their world?? STOP. I melted.
Add in small town vibes, found family, and a forbidden twist that actually raises the stakes, and I was fully locked in.
This series just keeps delivering that perfect balance of sweet + sexy + emotional and I’m obsessed with this town and this crew 🥹💖
✨ If you love single parent romances with swoony heroes, strong heroines, and audio chemistry that makes it feel real… you need this one.
Tropes: 👩👧 Single Parent 🚫 Forbidden Romance 🏡 Small Town 🤫 Secret Romance 🫶 Found Family ✈️ Meet Cute (plane edition!!) 💬 Flirty Banter
All For Love kicks off with an amazing meet cute, where single mom, Dahlia passes out on Dylan's lap during a flight. Their connection was immediate and they decide to try and make a real go of it after they shared an amazing night together. They start a long distance relationship, but it's also a secret one due to their feuding families.
Dahlia is trying to find a way to be with Dylan, but her controlling father hates the Whitman family and will stop at nothing to keep them apart.
I thought the relationship was just super sweet and I loved how amazing Dylan was with Dahlia's daughter. I did feel like it dragged on a bit and her father and ex were written a little too much like a mustache twirling type of villain.
AUDIOBOOK REVIEW
🎤Duet narration by Austin Stone & Isabelle Ruther
The audiobook had duet narration by Austin Stone and Isabelle Ruther. They did a great job with all the spicy and emotional scenes.
Thank you to Must Love Audio for providing the ALC.
Hands down my favorite book in the series so far. The sweetest story with the most epic meet cute, I will never be over it.
This book had me giggling and kicking my feet the entire time. I absolutely loved Dylan and Dahlia’s dynamic and their infatuation with each other. Such a beautiful love story about finding your person when you literally least expect it. The forbidden aspect of this one makes it even more delicious, who would think that you would fall for the one person that you shouldn’t. 🤭
The found family in this series is my favorite. Such a fun and loving group who love to give eachother a hard time but love with their entire hearts.
I just love being in Windy Harbor so much.
What to expect: Small town Single mom Love at first sight Forbidden Secret romance Boy obsessed Found family
This was the sweetest romance, after an awkward yet adorable meet cute these two fall hard and fast for each other and become such a sweet family unit.
Unbeknownst to them their family history gets in the way of their love affair and they choose to keep their romance a secret. But in the meantime Dylan proves to Dahlia and her little girl, Chloe that he's in it for the long haul and that there's nothing stopping their undeniable connection.
We get plenty of cameos from the whole Whitman family and im looking forward to where the rest of this series goes! Bring on Tully's book 😍

Bonus points for the epilogue, i absolutely love the chaos that the Whitman family bring, i was cackling about everyone interrupting some special couple time between Dylan and Dahlia!
Thankyou to Willow and Valentine PR for the opportunity to read this one early! 🫶🏻
Dylan and Dahlias meet cute may be one of my absolute favorites!! ✈️
Their love at first sight melted my heart, add Chloe into the mix and I am hooked, line and sinker!
I was shocked at who Dahlia ended up being once I started reading. I am obsessed with how they handled it, it wasn’t a big we can’t be together ordeal, it was a we’ll figure it out when the time is right.
So much had happened throughout this story and I don’t want to spoil anything 🤐 but I love them and their little family so much!
The Whitmans are the sweetest and most inclusive family ever. I wish I could be apart of their family 🫶🏻
I LOVE a he falls first and falls hard trope, and this book delivered! After that super awkward but adorable plane meet cute, I was already obsessed with Dahlia and Dylan. Dylan is absolute book boyfriend goals! He was so sweet not just to Dahlia, but to her daughter Chloe. He had me swooning the entire book.
I’m usually a bit picky about insta love, but for these two, it didn't feel rushed or unnatural. It just felt like pure love at first sight. I was so invested in their journey to a happy ending! I have really enjoyed this series and I can't wait for more!
Thank you Willow Aster and Valentine PR for an ARC of this book. I voluntarily read it and gave an honest review.
What a wonderful story about two people who meet on a flight and unexpected event. If true chemistry between these two is a thing, then it's a given for sure, as they click from the get go. They have everything against them that they don't realize at the time, but true love will/ can prevail. This is a beautiful story about how family members will come thru for you when you least expect it ❤️. Amazing story.
if you didn't know, i am a willow aster stan and her series never disappoint! i knew from the very first book in this series that dylan was going to be one of my favorites!!
this one was so easy to binge- i'm talking in under 24 hours! it was emotional and filled with longing, chemistry, effortless connection, and all the sparks. within the first few chapters when dylan and dahlia had their meet cute on an airplane, i was instantly sucked right in. they were vulnerable and fed right into their attraction to one another. you might think oh another instant love story? no i promise, there was so much more!
their chemistry may have been immediate, but it was intense and filled with real and raw emotions. what they thought was happening in a whirlwind, away-from-home little romance ended up becoming a beautiful love story. they gravitate toward each other and become each other's safe place. the plot twist: the secret that gets unveiled and threatens to ruin everything had my jaw dropping. i was not expecting it! but even with the odds stacked against them, dylan and dahlia never once strayed away from their relationship.
now i can't forget about the best part of this story: the single mom trope. the love i have for dahlia and her daugher chloe is immense. you can tell how badly she wants to be the best mom for chloe and she definitely is! each decision she makes is with chloe's best interest at heart. to see the way that dylan so effortlessly fit into their lives & how chloe gravitated toward him so easily just goes to show how meant to be these two were for one another. as they said from their meet cute, it was definitely "fate"!
even with the instant connection and all the spicy scenes, willow aster never takes away from the emotional core of the story. i loved the way she was able to balance their love story, dahlia's story with her daughter chloe & chloe's dad, dahlia's relationship with her own dad, and everything in between- especially the scenes with the whitman family. it was done so beautifully and really made the connection throughout the book feel real. this series is filled with all the comfort and charm and sucks you in.
another 4 stars for this series!!⭐️ i loved this so much, as always. thank you willow & valentine pr for the arc copy!!

What to Expect: Small Town MN Single Mom Love at First Sight Airplane Meet Cute Secret Relationship
It's Dylan's time to find his happily ever after! When he first met Dahlia on a plane heading to Minnesota, she was falling in his lap. You can say the rest is history. 🤣 In all seriousness though, this story is heavy on the love at first sight trope and I could not get enough.
I loved the dynamic between Dylan and Dahlia. Seeing Dylan fall for Dahlia's daughter was also just as fantastic to read about. The way they connected had me swooning all over again. Add in a cute pup named Bill and this family was the perfect way to spend my weekend. This is a swoony, wholesome romance at it's core. There is a side plot that continues the family drama from the first two books that had me frantically turning the pages to see what happened next. There is also a forbidden element to Dylan and Dahlia's relationship that had my jaw on the floor.
I love this entire family. The found family vibes is so well done and the love can be felt throughout each of the sibling's stories. I cannot wait for Tully's story next. There are hints at what's to come and I don't think I am ready.
Thank you so much to Willow and Valentine PR for the early copy of All For Love!
Tropes: - Single Mom - Boy Obsessed - Secret Forbidden Romance - Cinnamon Roll Hero - Small Town
Dahlia is exhausted and sleep deprived when she has an unfortunate incident on a plane leading to her meeting her fellow passenger Dylan Whitman. One thing leads to another and Dahlia ends up having an incredible night with him. They don’t want to say goodbye so they don’t. But there is one problem, they can’t date for one very BIG reason.
Dylan is beyond charismatic, charming, and basically the best man ever. He is irresistible!!! Dahlia and him have an ease to them as a couple that people dream of. Their convos are effortless. I loved their relationship. I also loved how great Dylan was with her daughter Chloe and how quick she warmed up to him. O, but let’s not forget about Bill!! The best dog around that I absolutely need to be his friend haha.
The secrecy and forbidden essence of their relationship was so fun for me. I can’t say much more because I don’t want to spoil the reason they can’t be together. Just know that it added another layer to the story. And a big round of applause for a couple that communicates!! It really made this book super enjoyable!
4.25 ⭐️ 2 🔥 Small Town Romance Single Mom Love at First Sight Forbidden Love Secret Romance Boy Obsessed Found Family Cozy Spring Romance Great on Audio! 🎧 This book was so sweet & so fun! The perfect book to cozy up with this spring!! This is book three of the Windy Harbor series, but can be read as a complete standalone. This one is about Dahlia, a single mom with a crummy ex and father to her child. She also has a terrible father herself, that she works for. In comes Dylan, who literally catches her when she falls, right into his lap. These two have the sweetest, most genuine care and love for each other. && don’t even get me started with the love and care Dylan shows for Dahlia’s daughter. 🫠 They have so much chemistry, right from the start. Unfortunately, they happen to be in rival families, which makes things tricky. They have to keep their relationship a secret, sneaking around to Airbnb‘s, from California to Minnesota. They definitely don’t get to spend as much time together as they want, but they make it work (hello, spicy phone time). I loved this one! Such a great addition to the series!! I can’t wait for the rest of the series!
Thank you Willow Aster and Valentine PR for the ALC!
I loved this. Probably my favorite of this entire series. Dahlia and Dylan were adorable and absolute perfection. Every but, from the meet cute, to the sneaking around, falling for each other, and every adorable interaction with Miss Chloe. These two were so incredibly obsessed and infatuated with each other that it had me smiling throughout the entire book. And can we talk about how accepting the Whitman family was of Dahlia from the moment they met her!? I actually teared up a bit. They really navigated their family feud better than I could ever imagine going. Although I wish it would have been brought to light a little sooner, I think Willow wrote this forbidden love so perfectly. I adore Windy Harbor and cannot wait for Tully’s story.
Thank you to Willow and Valentine PR for an arc.

This is the third book in this phenomenal series, and this is Dylan and Dahlia’s story. Dahlia is a single mom to her little girl, and while she is exhausted on a flight across the country, she finds herself waking up on Dylan’s lap, who is charming, handsome, and protective. There is an instant attraction between Dylan and Dahlia, and bring into the mix a crazy rooster, cute puppies, and two awesome grandmas, and this is a story that is a must read. This is a well written easy to read story, with family, friendships, emotions, secrets, forbidden romance, obsession, humour, witty banter, undeniable chemistry, and love, which leads to an entertaining, sweet, fun, and heartwarming, small-town romance. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

Dylan meets Dhalia when she quite literally falls into his lap on a flight home, as far as meet cutes go this was a fun one. They immediately hit it off and he asks her to dinner. That is the beginning of their relationship. But that relationship is forbidden, her dad would not approve, so she agrees to date Dylan but they have to keep it secret to see where it goes.
Dylan is smitten from the very beginning, not just with Dhalia but also with her 2 year old daughter Chloe. The relationship between Dylan and Chloe is so so sweet. I loved all of the sneaking around they did, and how they almost got caught so many times. The drama with Dhalia’s dad added some conflict to the relationship. And I loved being around this family again. The family text thread is a favorite of this series and it never fails to make me laugh. The grandma’s are lots of fun too.
This is another great book in the Windy Harbor series and I can’t wait for more!
Dylan & Dahlia are too cute! A single mom, a fainting spell on a plane meet cute, an adorable two year old, so much family drama, & a mini dachshund named Bill-the recipe for a spicy and adorable book. Another Whitman find their match-this time is youngest brother and Malibu surf shop owner Dylan. His dream woman lands in his lap literally and after three dates they’re both head over heels for one another. Dahlia’s ex and baby daddy super sucks and her father is an explosive, manipulative jerk. Turns out it’s Bruce Granger-the self proclaimed nemesis to the Whitman family. Dylan and Dahlia agree to stay a secret but fall deeply for one another and despite the family drama they find their HEA after arson, threats, & so much love from the Whitman side. Another sweet addition to the Windy Harbor world.
I have been loving this series by Willow and this one easily just become my new FAVE!
I mean a down bad MMC who falls hard for the single mom?! Yes please 👏🏻
Dylan notices Dahlia in the airport and immediately wants to talk to her, but he doesn’t get the chance. That is until they end up on the same plane and she literally falls into his lap.
He convinces her to go out with him and from the on he is OBSESSED. Even when he finds out she has a young daughter, he’s already ALL IN.
But when they find out how they’re connecting, things change. They decide to keep their relationship a secret while trying to continue seeing each other as they are constantly in different places.
I loved this one so much! The found family aspect is perfection and I loved the way Dylan was with Dahlia’s daughter, Chloe. 🥹
From the spice to the swoon to the laughs, I was a goner 🤭
This is a MUST read if you love: 🏡Small Town 🧸Single Mom 😈Rival Families 🤫Secret Relarionship 🧎Boy Obsessed
How would a fictional man steal my heart? Is it because he owns a rescue dog, falls instantly for a single mom on an airplane after she literally falls into his lap, or wears with pride the nail polish applied by a cutie pie three year old? And that’s just the start, because Dylan is a swoony book boyfriend. The instant connection with him and Dahlia was so sweet, how they made things work long distance was enduring, how he accepted and protected “his girls” made my heart melt. I’m really enjoying this series set in a small fictional MN lake town called Windy Harbor. I had the pleasure to be an early reader, my thoughts are honest and voluntary. Thanks to the author and Valentine PR for the eARC. 4.25 stars
I love the Whitman family, and their journeys so far.
I knew going into this book who Dahlia father will be and shew! Downright evil.
The meet-cute between the main leads was absolutely hilarious and one for the books.
Finding out each other's surnames creates something forbidden, but neither of them can stop that pull they feel towards each other.
The push and pull, the chemistry and falling were there and I felt it, loved it but something for me was missing!!!!
I love. Love a single mum romance book, and Willow is absolutely perfect at writing them. I loved the way Dylan just loved her and Dahlia. He was the support she needed.
The Whitman family was amazing as always and I can't wait for Tully's book. Because that little teaser???... I need more 🤭
5⭐️ Willow Aster does it again with creating such a romantic interconnected series!! This is book 3 of the series, can be read alone, but you would get the most out of it if read in order (the other two are live! And this comes out on the 9th of April) Dylan and Dahlia meet on a plane and fate takes over from there. Dahlia has some family drama with 1 particular member of her family that has been a menace the whole series lol. Their connection is raw, real, and really fast but it works for them. The found family is top tier. The sibling support is amazing and their banter/teasing makes it better. Highly recommend this series and this author ((heart eyes))
