Book Review: In the Light of Day by K. Wish
I knew I was going to love this book because I loved the first two, and boy, was I right!! THIS BOOK WAS EVERYTHING! Ace and Nova were everything! 5/5!✨️ All the stars!!!
I had been waiting for their story since book 1, and honestly, theirs was the perfect way to end the Hidden Valley series! This series progressively got darker, and their tragic and traumatic pasts left me absolutely heartbroken. I can confirm I have cried in all 3 books😭 But they were also so wholesome and healing!❤️🩹
Ace and Nova came together in a time of need and never, not once, let each other down. Their love and devotion for one another were just beautiful and inspiring. They are one of those couples where you just KNOW they are truly soulmates.
I friggin' LOVED Ace with all my heart! He was the perfect combination of a big, silly teddy bear and the most protective, dangerous, no-nonsense man. He was so selfless, nurturing, and patient. He always put Nova's needs first and never gave her any reason to doubt him. And Nova - she was so incredible, STRONG, sassy, and brave. She overcame so much, and I'm just so in awe of her. I loved them both so much!🥹
Their banter was also top-tier! I laughed so hard in parts but sobbed in others. The author does a fantastic job of balancing sweet, loving moments, hilarious moments, and downright depressing and suspenseful moments. (With this being said, please check the trigger warnings before diving in!!)
I was hooked right from the beginning - not just from the start of this book, but this whole series! Dante & Mila, Charlie & Porter, and Ace & Nova all have a piece of my heart! This series has officially become a top all-time favourite of mine, and I can't recommend it enough!!😍
Thank you, K. Wish, for writing such amazing, emotional stories and beautiful characters!🩷
