Review- 4 Stars
I have loved this Unexpected Heroes series and this
novella is a sweet little addition. I was worried with the plot laid out at the
beginning that the book would be rushed to fit so much into so few pages.
However, it’s paced pretty well. There were a couple of spots where I had stop
for a minute and look back, thinking I’d missed some pages because of a jump in
the timeline. Overall though, I enjoyed Axel and Ella’s story.
I fell for Axel right away. He has
such a charming a personality and a sweet, boyishness mixed in with the sexy
alpha. I loved that he didn’t fight his attraction to Ella, instead he was determined
to break down her walls. He is fierce and protective, making a woman feel safe
and loved. I felt like his reaction to things later in the book were not the
best choice for the author, they seemed to contradict who he was for the rest
of the book. That’s all I can say without a spoiler.
Ella was an interesting mix of
annoyance and admiration. To be honest, it didn’t really change much until the
end. Ella is strong, fiercely independent, and courageous. However, her
stubborn belief that she is not in danger drove me a little crazy. As did the
staunch resistance in seeing where things could go with Axel. In the beginning,
I understood it, but I felt like Axel proved himself quite a bit before she
chose to let down her walls.
Ella’s friends are adorable and they
brought a fun dynamic to the story as well. I do love a good HEA and this is definitely
a warm fuzzies ending. Following Her is
a fun little addition to the series.
