π So much Lawn Maintenance & Yearning, Y'all, this book had me DOWN BAD for Perish & Gracie!!π
I was just… tired and overworked and, yeah, lonely. I’d been trying to bury that under work, familial obligations, and chores. But it had been a really long time since I’d had someone to share my free time with, to cuddle with at night. I missed it. That was all it was. I was overworked and under-loved. - Gracie
Perish and Gracie just give me that little bit of happiness that just almost made me want to cry! Perish is the BEST GUY! There is SO much angst and yearning here, throughout the whole book, I just found myself craving what Perish & Gracie wanted all the way through the whole book.
Perish is, of course, trying to keep himself far away from any of the Henchmen Princesses - not really understanding that the whole family is ready to give him all the hugs and love they can because he saved their Gracie.
Gracie keeps thinking that she must have done something wrong in order for this random guy to be shooting at her, not understanding at all that said random guy was waiting for Perish to leave a weak spot and then he could try to kill her and make Perish in trouble with the whole family.
I loved that Gracie went to the Cop Shop all on her own and gave a drawing of what the guy looked like, putting herself in even more danger but she's felt all her life like she had to do something to keep herself safe, to keep her family safe - this time she saw him, she knew exactly what he looked like. I just wish she'd have waited until one of her brothers, cousins, protectors had waited to go with her, this was ridiculous - she was putting herself in danger.
And of course, as soon as the guy nabbed her Perish realized exactly who it was. He's not there for Gracie, he's there solely for Perish because Perish didn't finish the job the first time for crying out loud. So Perish has to do the right thing and turn himself in, but WHAT?!?
And then there's a big old wedding followed by the honeymoon, which was basically Perish buying the house and telling Gracie which parts of the house she could and couldn't use (everything but the lawn, the guy's a little weird!)
The epilogue is, I swear, my FAVORITE part because it lays out all the different happy parts of Gracie and Perish's marriage, children, etc. So much happiness, I promise if you've not read a Henchmen book before you are DEFINITELY missing out!! You have to come back in a few weeks for Layla's book, you won't know what hit you!!
