Well, let me tell you, I was all set to kinda dislike Lincoln Foxx after I found out how he ordered a grown A** woman away from her hometown. I also didn’t know how I’d feel about his very recent slutterific past. I must say, however, he more than made up for these slight issues with how he loved his girls and his “peach”, Faye Calloway. Faye was just amazing and fierce, no notes for her lol

Lincoln and Faye definitely didn’t have a traditional path to love, nor did they have a meet cute, quite the opposite actually. But they had a surprising amount in common, most importantly how protective they were when it came to the ones they love. Lincoln Foxx has had a lot of loss in his life, like the other Foxx boys, however he has had to do a lot of his grieving in secret. Like in the first book, I was a huge fan of how he, his brothers and his grandfather take care of each other and bring others into their fold. Faye has had to make some very hard choices to take care of her small family, but when she comes back to town, she starts to feel what its like to let others be there for her – Lincoln in particular. I really liked the relationship she developed with Lark and Lili, Lincoln’s daughters, as well. Maggie, her sister, was a little harder to like, but I was thrilled that they started healing together as well.

Narration was also duet style, my favorite, voiced by Lee Samuels and Megan Wicks. Those two gave a fantastic performance bringing gritty Linc and fierce Faye to life – especially those Bourbon drinking scenes (IYKYK).

Lots of crazy still going on in Fiasco, Kentucky – and I have a feeling it’s going to get turned up a notch for the final installment of book 3!
