Easily my favorite of the whole series so far. Instead of bringing conflict in from outside forces, the conflict is entirely within the relationship as two Fated Mates who have fallen away from each other must find a way to come back together. Even though it all boils down to communication issues, it was very understandable how the characters got into their situation and why they stayed there, and why it was so hard to get out. This made me feel a lot.

GIANT content warning for much discussion of, and dealing with the fallout from, loss of a baby.
