Fernandez sisters. \u00a0There is such an amazing feeling of family, of warmth and support, and I adore the glimpses of Puerto Rican culture. \u00a0While much of the subject matter (drug abuse and intimate partner violence) is heavy, Ms. Oliveras manages to balance it with Lil\u00ed&#8217;s optimism and the Fernandez family warmth. \u00a0I think it would be possible to read this as a standalone, as while the characters from the rest of the series make frequent cameos, enough of the series background is explained.<\/p>\n<p>Lil\u00ed and Diego meet when she receives a call from one of her domestic violence clients, only to find the police, in the form of Diego and his partner, guarding her apartment (frequent readers of the series will realize this picks up where Julia&#8217;s novella left us). \u00a0Though she&#8217;s frustrated with his refusal to let her through, they both feel a spark of attraction towards the other person, and both admire the others&#8217;, well, stubbornness. \u00a0When Lil\u00ed makes the questionable choice to take her client home with her for the night, against Diego&#8217;s protestations, he insists on giving her his phone number. \u00a0That spark is still there when she reaches back out to him for help, and especially when they run into each other while volunteering at the youth center, where Lil\u00ed teaches girls self defense and Diego teaches guitar. \u00a0But Lil\u00ed&#8217;s dated a cop before, and she fears that Diego will also be unable to accept her and her commitment to her job. \u00a0Is it just the same old song and dance, or the start of a brand new melody?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSees the good in everyone, doesn\u2019t she?\u201d Ryan shook his head slowly from side to side.<br \/>\nWell, she didn\u2019t seem to have trouble finding fault in him, Diego noted. He kept that thought to himself.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I liked Lil\u00ed a lot. \u00a0In the other books, she came off as the clown of the family, and while some of that is still there, a lot of has been lost under the grief from her parents&#8217; death. \u00a0She is still feisty, smart, and dedicated to her family, however. \u00a0She also sees the good in everyone, which Diego thinks blinds her\u00a0to a lot of the dangers that come with her job, but I thought was exactly what her clients and the kids she worked with needed. \u00a0I struggled with Diego. \u00a0He&#8217;s the picture of machismo, and basically every alpha trait that I can&#8217;t stand. \u00a0He dismisses Lil\u00ed&#8217;s expertise and refuses to let her in, out of fear of bogging her down in his family drama. \u00a0He was downright aggressive with some of Lil\u00ed&#8217;s clients, and completely unable to empathize with what they&#8217;re going through. \u00a0While past family trauma explained a lot of his behavior, I didn&#8217;t like that a cop &#8211; who would be expected to deal sympathetically with victims &#8211; would react that way. \u00a0Lil\u00ed herself is frustrated with his black and white thinking, and that he discounts her experience and training working with DV victims, even when it&#8217;s his own sister. \u00a0I didn&#8217;t leave the book with the feeling that he&#8217;d actually changed or come to understand why his approach was so harmful.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThey shared a soft smile, the unbreakable bonds of music tying them together. First years ago with their respective parents. Now with each other.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Besides that, though, there were so many things I liked. \u00a0Lil\u00ed and Diego both share a love of music, especially classical guitar. \u00a0Diego&#8217;s mom loved the band Lil\u00ed&#8217;s dad played in, and the song she used to insist he play for her was Lil\u00ed&#8217;s parents&#8217; favorite song. \u00a0Music is a big deal to her family, and it&#8217;s been a thread throughout the series. \u00a0The Fernandez sisters &#8211; and cousin &#8211; are such a warm family, and I loved seeing how they drew support from each other, even if they didn&#8217;t necessarily agree with the others&#8217; actions. \u00a0Though Lil\u00ed laments that they treat her like a child, to me it came off more as concern. \u00a0It was good getting to catch up with each of the couples and their new families.<\/p>\n<p>I think, overall, this would be more a 3.5 for me. \u00a0It has all the warmth, the familia that I&#8217;ve come to love from Ms. Oliveras, but I had issues with Diego. \u00a0So, overall, I&#8217;m sad to say goodbye to the Fernandez sisters, but I&#8217;m very eager for whatever Ms. Oliveras writes next!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve very much enjoyed reading about Ms. Oliveras&#8217; Fernandez sisters. \u00a0There is such an amazing feeling of family, of warmth and support, and I adore the glimpses of Puerto Rican culture. \u00a0While much of the subject matter (drug abuse and intimate partner violence) is heavy, Ms. Oliveras manages to balance it with Lil\u00ed&#8217;s optimism and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3617,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[12,22,39],"book-tag":[161,179,584,165],"class_list":["post-3615","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-reviews","tag-4-stars","tag-contemporary","tag-romance","book-author-priscilla-oliveras","book-series-matched-to-perfection","book-publisher-zebra-shout","book-genre-romance","book-source-netgalley","book-format-ebook","book-tag-4stars","book-tag-contemporary","book-tag-m-f","book-tag-romance"],"acf":[],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/39403922.jpg?fit=291%2C475&ssl=1","author_info":{"display_name":"ReadingLlama","author_link":"https:\/\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/index.php\/author\/readingllama\/"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
