This was a good conclusion to The Inkeepers series overall. The premise is that Nydia, fabulous Nuyorican accountant and the youngest member of the Inkeepers crew, meets construction engineer and single dad, Lamar, when she travels to New Orleans for her friend (and star of Book 3)’s wedding and for Lamar, it’s connection are first sight, but with both being volatile, incredibly direct and filterless people and with Nydia unsure if she wants to take up a relationship where she might need to be stepmother to a tween, they really might not have anything to build on.

I did enjoy this for the most part, but I think that’s mostly because I’m already a fan of this author’s work. This is probably not the book, I’d recommend a reader start with. Indeed I wouldn’t recommend starting with this series at all. But if you were going to read this series, definitely read it in order. The author does recap the events of previous books which can be a little tedious and boring as it slows the novel down, but it is there. Nonetheless, to really have context, I recommend definitely reading in order. Now for this book, did it have some inconsistencies? To me, yes- there were a few inconsistencies with characters vowing they didn’t feel certain things only to jump on those feelings as though they were established facts a few pages later. I also wasn’t altogether sold on the compatibility of the main couple. That said, I did enjoy this book and this series and definitely plan to read more from this author.
