I will always love Peri and Echo.
Always.

[Hemmel M. · Rating 1 out of 5]

This is all telling and no showing. If the author had only deleted half of all the information she is piling and piling and piling, it would be enjoyable. Add to that the lack of personalities. We have two protagonists without characteristics. They love each other and want to go on a long journey. That's it. No hopes, memories, secrets, or life goals other than marriage.

MY BABY PERI IS BACK!!!
I loved Peri and Echo in Sometimes There’s Stars and was so excited about seeing them again ❤️ Peri is such a ray of sunshine, and the way he shines on Echo is stunning.
Suki Fleet…can we get a book on Etienne??? So curious about him!

This was perfect, as always. Nothing but adorable sweetness and fluff. I love Peri and Echo so much, I loved this!

[UltraMeital · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a short sweet epilogue to Echo and Peri's love story. Like the novel, it's tender and endearing. it's Echo organizing a surprise Christmas party for Peri, which turned to be far more than he originally (and rationally) thought it will be.

LOL, my 5-star "review" from 8-11-21: 🥰🥰🥰 ...and gah, the five stars still stand at my 10-27-22 re-read, plus a billion more stars if I could add them! In fact, I probably enjoyed this short bit of heartwarming perfection even more this time around, as I was able to read (re-read) both Sometime’s There’s Stars and then this one back to back this time. I love Echo and Peri's story more than I can ever find words for 🌠🥰🌠
