Emotional And Visceral Series Conclusion. This is one of those books where you *feel* everything our main character feels. From the utter despair at the situation she finds herself in to the crash and crush of the white water rapids she thrusts herself into to try to escape the emotional turmoil... while telling herself that she's just doing her job.
While this is *technically* a romance, the romance is absolutely more of a side story here to the family and friend relationships of our primary character - so those that want a more romance-centric tale may not like this one quite as much, but those who enjoy a solid women's fiction with a touch of romance - still in the Hallmarkie type style, but with more focus on the friends than the boy, necessarily - you're going to enjoy this book quite a bit.
I personally came into this book having not read any of the prior three... which is probably not the best for a series concluding book, but even there, it worked well with fully fleshed out characters and a story that was easy to follow even coming in so late. Still, I absolutely recommend starting with Book 1 for anyone not reading an Advance Review Copy, as I did.
Overall a solid and emotional tale that will pull your heartstrings and have your pulse pounding with adrenaline in alternating measures.
Very much recommended.
