What's new?! this was a lot of fun, just as I have come to expect from Jay Hogan. Her wicked humour shines through her stories, plot twists and characters.

At the core of this is the deliciously irreverent but serious relationship between a charge nurse, Cam, whose family is from the Solomon Islands as I recall, and an All Black rugby player, Reuben.

More serious is the injury that puts Reuben in hospital days before their wedding. It's exactly why I can't watch rugby no matter how exciting and skilful the play is.

I'm giving this an extra half star simply because I won't forget Cam in a hurry, nor Reuben's fierce devotion to him - not to mention! what a trailblazer! Despite the fun the author has with this, the relationship between the MCs felt so real and intense.

Carol420 below says it best: "...there was an emotional connection between them that was sometimes scary, but so very beautiful".

Ok I’m glad we finally learned Adrian’s story, but this was a bit of a rough read for me. The character development here felt very off to me for some reason, so neither Niall or Adrian together worked for me. Also the threats and menacing were all Too Much, and then the rape threats needed a content warning that wasn’t anywhere to be found (which is weird considering the next book has one for PTSD). Oh well on to the next.

Wow this was a journey with quite a bit of angst, but I loved seeing all the treks Ethan had to take to get to the right point for him. Tanner didn't have as many, and it was actually great to see how he became aware of that for the big declaration at the end. Again with all of Jay Hogan's books, the setting here is amazing and has me thinking about NZ as a potential dream destination one day.

Tons of love for this read as I was really looking forward to learning more about Jules, and I adored how perfect Liam was for him. Seeing Lane Station here was great as we’ve been hearing about it from the other books, but finally digging in deep with all the characters worked so well. Hogan truly doesn’t have a bad note in any of her books I’ve read so far, and this series just keeps getting better for me.
