Dyson's life was taken from him by his own mother's selfishness and he was sent away. But Aubrie never forgot how he helped her when he could. And now he's home. All he wants is to build a life for himself. But he sees Aubrie again. And he knows she needs to be part of that life.
This was a cute story. Aubrie and Dyson were destined to be in each other's orbit and I loved that. The family drama was big and sometimes overshadowed the romance in this for me, but it was engaging and compelling enough to follow along. I love that she worked with plants and food and it connected back to Xavier and Xander, along with the truck driving. The only thing that stuck in my craw was that it was framed as a marriage of convenience but it didn't really need to be. By the time she needed him as a husband, they had pretty much fallen for each other already. And then they both expressed that they had feelings for each other, and wanted to be together, but after the wedding, Aubrie was still in her head about being his "friend," as though they hadn't already passed that. It was... a little confusing. But it was a cute story, nonetheless.
