Been reading a lot of Robert B. Parker lately. His fast-paced stories, written in short sentences with a descriptive, declarative style is incredibly addictive when combined with his humour and straightforward character depth. But this slower paced book, with its reflective, emotional tone, which has humour too, and more complex character depth, is an enjoyable, rich, slower read.

The young soldier as god-figure/wiseman at the end made me roll my eyes, the story got a bit wobbly in its focus at times, and although I liked the high emotion levels, I did feel twinges of suspicion that I was being manipulated to cry, I still liked this story overall. Got a lot of solid things to say about families and love. Not one I’d recommend unless I knew someone was looking for a HEA Nicholas Sparks.

And the Donny conflict he keeps bringing up to show he’s not perfect is not even about him. In fact, it furthers his knighthood! Lame. And the murder plot line is shoehorned in. But I love me my insecure, trying real hard Qay.

Talking my time reading this one. Just a chapter or so every day. It’s not a page turner (unlike all the mysteries and thrillers I’ve been reading lately), but it’s interesting, feels real, and I want to know how this slow-building friends-to-lovers relationship tension works into their eventual commitment. And it makes me smile.
