Readers will find this story has greater resonance by first reading Book 1, ‘Misdemeanor’, and Book 2, ‘Hard Time’. The following review contains light spoilers for the series.
Micky and Dan have left England behind for a new start in the Welsh countryside. While Dan settles into his teaching position at the local school, Micy is still plagued with severe self-doubt. He’s not yet entirely able to accept help from those around him, including Dan and his family. Will a visit from best friend Jason finally help him overcome these obstacles and let Micky find his true calling?
Before Dan and Micky can have their happily-ever-after, there’s some late-developing relationship angst to resolve. All is not as expected in Wales, and adjustments are required before the future they envision together can begin. CF White delivers a wonderfully emotional conclusion to the grittily realistic ‘Responsible Adult’ series. White’s characters and story feel so real, I can see myself living down the street from this family.
Once again, the well-written steamy scenes are full of emotion and fit in well with the storyline.
Piers Ryman delivers an excellent performance as narrator. I particularly like his interpretation of Micky’s character.
This audiobook was given to me, free of charge as an ARC, after I made a request for it. My review is completely voluntary and represents my honest opinion.
Highly recommended.
