Covering a large span of time without distancing the reader from the characters' emotions is a difficult task. Doing that as well as bringing three very different men together in a believable way is even more challenging. Hart not only accomplishes this, but does it well.

Call me cold-hearted, but only a select few books have literally brought tears to my eyes, and this is one of them. Most of the heavy emotions are in relation to Josiah and Mateo, mainly because Tristan likes to pretend he doesn't feel emotions.

The two little things that bothered me were at the beginning and end. One, the book starts by describing Josiah's personality, which was completely unnecessary because it is more than adequately expressed through his behavior. Two, things got a little sappy at the end of the book, and since I have a low tolerance for it, that almost soured it for me, but it wasn't enough to annoy me too badly.

I really enjoyed the book and would recommend to anyone looking for a tearjerker.
