When Jace found out that he had been adopted, he assumed the worst – that his natural parents didn’t love him, and that his grandmother had rejected him for the color of his skin. Melonie had a terrible accident when she was a child and always felt that her father blamed her. I enjoyed the way the two had to work past assumptions they had made and learned to accept the truth that was being spoken.
The adorable babies added an “aww” element to the story. Neither Jace nor Melonie knew much of anything about babies so there were some fun expectations and dialog related to that. The way they both fell deeply in love with the twin girls was super sweet.
The story was complete and yet I felt that a few of the issues weren’t resolved. It was also clear in reading this that it was not the first book of the series. A number of things that were assumed. Not necessarily things that were critical to the enjoyment and understanding of the events, yet I felt a little like the new kid at a school everyone had attended all their lives. So do yourself a favor and read the first book of the series before you read this one.
