I was gifted this book recently and did not realise straight away that it was book 19 of the series, which I almost put aside the book as I didn’t want to start a book for from the end and completely miss the whole picture. But I decided I could give the book a read see if I like the style of writing, the story… and if I would want to get the rest of the series and as it was the first book I’ve read by Elle in the series I had to take time adjusting to who’s who connected to, but the family tree at the beginning of the book was a huge help.
