Of course, this is Pepper, Pepper makes you work for your happy ending, and I do love her for it. We learn a lot more about Sully in this book which helps piece him together a little more. We learn of his compassion and his brutal childhood and yet we’re still left wondering what he’s done in this past to cause him to push Eleanor away … what is he afraid of? I feel like I lived Eleanor’s confusion in this book too. I was so conflicted at times during read...
