Some people are born lucky. Then there’s me, destined to be loved by the man who knows my darkest secret. My gift has followed me my entire life—the ability to see the threads of fate. I can see the red thread tying together two people destined to love one another. But my gift has another side to it. A darker side. I can also see a simple black thread tied to the fingers of those who aren’t aware of it, connecting them to the person destined to kill them. And when I look down at my own finger, I can see the red thread stretched over to Bishop King.

Mike Bravo saved my life, and they want me to join them, but there’s one small problem. Isaac “Iris” Griffin. He’s as irresistibly snarky as he always was, only there’s a big difference this time.

But something tells me Iris might be worth the insubordination.

The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

A bittersweet listen.
Ian and Hollis are looking to expand their family but threats to Ian's restaurant and his person are making things a bit difficult. For once, Ian is determined not to be left out of the fight by his closest friends and he also comes to realize that he is not over his traumatic past. Suddenly, he is not sure he is ready for kids.
As for his friends, Lucas is moving into a new home with his husband Andre and child. Snow is planning a wedding with Jude and Noah and Rowe are pretty much the same. For the most part, everything is changing and it is bittersweet for the friends as they say goodbye to some of their past but what I do know is that these guys will stay friends forever. It is probably the final book featuring these friends as main characters because there was it felt sad for me even though it is a very happy ending.
Also bittersweet, is the narration. The too early passing of Kenneth Obi means this is probably the last or one of the last audios he made and that too made me sad. He was a great narrator and person. I will always have re-listening though and it was good to hear his voice again.

I waited for this!!! BUT
I was so excited for this final installment but ended up being disappointed! I love Ian & his story of triumph but too much time was spent repeating what we already knew from previous books. Glad the entire crew is settled & happy but Rialto fell short, seemed like a quick wrap up but not a new story.

The End
Before today I didn’t realise that Rialto would mark the end of this series, but there it was. Another ending. After finishing it I’m sad to say goodbye, but I’m also equally happy to leave them all on a high note. Leaving them healthy and happy, because when we first met them in Shiverthey were anything but.
I love that this book was about Ian, he’s the one that captured my heart just a little bit more than the rest of the guys, the one my heart broke for so many times. Here we see him happy – and busy. It’s been about four months since he married Hollis, the love of his life and they are starting the process of becoming foster parents. And he’s also in the process of opening a new restaurant after his success with his first one; Rialto. The restaurant he poured his heart and soul into. But someone is trying to destroy the restaurant and everything he built, and soon it’s not only raids or bad reviews, someone physically attacks him. Naturally this makes the whole family to get involved...
I loved how fiercely protective they all are of Ian, but I love even more how far he has come from that scared kid they rescued years ago. We see him finally taking a stand against them, setting limits and making them see that he’s not that kid anymore, and that he’s fully capable to solve his own problems. He doesn’t need them to rescue him anymore, and it was great to see everyone finally realising and accepting that.
Story-wise this was more on the quiet side – going by these guys’ standards. Let’s just say that had any of it happened to me in RL, I would not have been as calm as any of the guys. Calm probably wouldn’t be in my vocabulary. Anyway… you could say that the events here forces Ian to deal more with his past and the stuff he’s been avoiding and has kept buried. But now it’s forced to the surface and I think that it’s something I think both he and Hollis needed.
Listening to Rialto was again bittersweet, knowing that this series has come to an end, but mainly for knowing that there might not be any more narrations by Kenneth Obi to come. I’ve spent today listening to the last two books in this series, listening to Obi and it’s been wonderful. I love how he brought this book to life, how he brought Ian and Hollis to life, as well as the rest of the cast. He made you feel the love between Ian and Hollis, how strong their connection was, even during their fight. Or maybe especially then, both hurt by the exchange and Obi made you feel it, but also the sweetness when they made up over brownies. Obi’s has become a part of this series and these characters and it’s been great to experiencing it all with him.
Rialto was a sweet end to this series. It’s been an intense and often dangerous journey to get to where they all are now, but it’s all been worth it to see them so happy.

Sappy and full of action
This has to be one of the gooiest graphically written romances I’ve read this year. The completion of the series is incredibly steamy, and focuses on Ian, the gentle, strong, emotional, lovable, ‘heart’ of the series! He owns Rialto and is one of the best chefs in the area. Rialto is attacked. He is attacked. His friends are attacked. Through the series, his rescuers/family have sheltered him, kept him out of harms way, coddled him for his own good. In this last book, Ian gets a backbone and with the help of his husband, stands up to Snow, Rowe, and Lucas- and deals with his issues the way he wants to. It may not be the smartest, safest, or sanest way to deal with the troubles, but Ian saves the day. His relationship with Hollis is so stinking’ cute - and sizzling hot. No lie, it was a strange and uniquely pleasant combo juxtaposed to the backdrop of mystery and action.

Ian and Hollis
The final book in this amazing series where Ian is finally able to leave his past at rest. One final crazy rescue with all the code names, gunfires and craziness that comes with his family and this time he is allowed to join the mayhem instead of waiting on the side line. His marriage with Hollis is more than he ever dreamt of and the final chapter shows us how loving and extanted his family has become when having Thanksgiving a year later. This whole series has been an amazing journey and Kenneth Obi has made it soo much more. The man has a great capability of doing all the different voices and emotions.

Such a great finale for the series!
Story: While it is a bit bitter sweet to know this is the end, I must say this story made the series come full circle. It really feels like the best finale as the guys come back to where it all started, although now the found family is much bigger and stronger. I loved the emotions behind this story and it was a pure pleasure to read both this book and the series in general. I will definitely be coming back to the guys!
Narration: As with the whole series, Kenneth Obi did a magnificent job with all the voices and characters! Great performance all around!
