Finally Found You

Camilla is long suffering.

And Kenzy is an awful, horrid brat, and Lysander (who didn’t know he fathered her) is just as bad as Kenzy. He hooks up (perhaps he shouldn’t so he doesn’t have random kids) randomly. And worst of all is the ick factor of him sleeping with Camilla’s aunt (too Game of Thrones and not in a good way), Kenzy is her cousin, who she’s trying to raise but Kenzy is god-awful.
Camilla was the one to put the brakes on Lysander’s move for them to have a nameless one night stand.

I was looking forward to Lysander’s story and it was a miss for me. I liked Camilla, but thought there was enough going on without Kenzy and the deep dive into Lysander wasn’t rewarding for me.
There is a lot of conflict going on.

This is the story of Lysander. As the last triplet to fall, this was interesting to see him fall in love as he discovered he was a father to a teenager!
While I liked the story, I feel that Claudia Burgoa skimmed over a lot of moments that I thought would have been important to understand how Lysander presents himself at the beginning of the book. Lysander describes himself as having all this pressure on him in regard to his father’s death, and dealing with his mother’s involvement in that death. However, since this is the book that was to explain what happened to his father, it seemed to have slight glances at the incident. Claudia didn’t write any scenes in which Lysander revealed to his siblings what their mother did to their father, and what he said or did to his mother to control her for all these years. Since his father’s death had such an impact on all his siblings lives, it would have been great to see all of their reactions to finding out that information. Even when the mother was confronted with what she did, that scene seemed to fall flat. It seemed rushed.
Also, I think the therapy scenes between him and his daughter should have been included in this book. All in all, this book was okay, but it was very shallow. I expected more from a book that was after Heath and Atzi’s book.

This is book 7 in the series of the Paradise Bay series and mostly stands alone. That means that the other characters from the other books have a big part in this story and there will be small things you won't understand unless you read them but also the author catches you up on their pasts in this story as well.

This is a VERY forbidden romance between Lysander and Camilla. It also is an age gap story as she is 27 and he is close to 40. She enters his life when her cousin disappears, and she comes to San Franscisco to find her.

In this book Lysander discovers that he had a child 15 years before when she shows up and looks just like his sister at that age. She is trying to find him to avoid being put in foster care when her guardian and grandmother dies.

There is a bit of a mystery in this book as Lysander is clearly the dad but there is a big question mark of who's the mom because the mother is someone Lysander has never met or remembers meeting.

This story is complicated by a very mixed up teenager and I loved how Lysander really opens his heart, home and family to her and to her cousin Camilla. This story was complicated and more realistic as we get to see how making Kenzie a part of Lysander's life and family takes time and therapy and was not an easy fix.

I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
