Pretty much exactly as described. A little overwhelming even for someone who has read the whole series but not in a while - I think pretty much everyone made an appearance, including characters/couples I barely remembered.

We get to see a bit more from Six and Bren as they try to sort out the homeless kid situation in their sector and try to get factories up and running again.
This starts out very domestic an homey, you get a nice orgy in the middle and an almost unbearably sweet ending considering how hard these 2 characters are.

Obviously, don't read this novella if you haven't read the Beyond series. This takes place after Beyond Surrender, like a check-in to the characters we know and love. Beyond Doubt has BABIES in it. *screams excitedly* Everything is lovely with the O'Kanes. They're trying to put the Sectors back to rights after the war, and they're doing well. They're going to hit some struggles, but after what everyone went through? I think they're doing okay.
Six and Bren are trying to piece together Sector Three and it's going to be tough. The kids of the Sector still aren't trying what Six wants to do for them. They've spent too long fending for themselves. But Six will do everything within her power to give these street kids a home and some semblance of safety.
I love this novella. And as the usual with Kit Rocha books, even with novellas, we get multiple POVs, and not just from Six and Bren. This novella may only be 71 pages, but it is a sexy one. I highly recommend reading this for anyone who has read the Beyond series and wants to read something happy with the O'Kanes. They've been through so much, so it's nice to just read about them after their happily-ever-afters.

They might be leaders, but when the O'Kanes gathered together, they were something better. Family.

Great little novella about Six & Bren as they take charge of sector 3. Six isn't about the white picket fence happily ever after future some of the other women want. She wants to help the street kids in her sector but first she has to convince them to trust her & Bren enough to just talk with them. It's good to see familiar friends again and get some of the steamy sexy times.
I also appreciated seeing a little of Laurel, one of Six's girls who is becoming more prominent in the Gideon's Riders series.

I somehow missed this when it first came out. Six and Bren's happily ever after involves taking in street kids and it's AWESOME. Also, if you were feeling nostalgic for O'Kane orgies, this novella has your back.

I have loved Six since we first met her, way back in the ...first Beyond book? Or the second?
Where she ends up, and what she needs when others are making more standard choices, is just gorgeous. This is a novelette, I think, short for a Beyond story, and so perfectly hardscrabble-beautiful that I'm still tearing up as I type this. I finished reading it in a dentist waiting room while my son was in, glad that they had a box of tissues handy, so I'm writing this a few hours later, at home, where I'm still a bit leaky.
You could read this on its own, and get enough to appreciate it. For the full impact, start at the beginning, and then re-read this one. When you do, let me know. I want to read your updated review. :)

Second reading: Yes, so lovely to see more Bren and Six and their rebuilding efforts and how well they work. And the whole O'Kane family. Such a great little glimpse of everyone. And also a good refresher of Laurel.

Well, this felt like coming home. ;) Got to see most of the O'Kanes and what they have been up to, in addition to the absolute sweetness (ahem) - and hotness - of Six and Bren basically just wanting to adopt all the street kids while rebuilding Sector 3. Such a feel-good little novella!

ugh, I loved this. I love Bren and Six, and their determination to give the orphans and kids who have no one they can trust better lives and actual FUTURES. This was such a sweet damned story. And I always love that, though the books/novellas focus on a specific coupling, all of the O'Kanes are present. It's just not the same without them or their wicked debauchery. :D
