In All Our Tomorrows, Catherine Bybee gives us a captivating story of family, power, and unexpected romance. The book centers on Chase Stone, a self-made man who suddenly inherits his estranged father's multibillion-dollar business, along with some dark family secrets. Paired with Piper Maddox, his father’s assistant, Chase faces not only the challenge of navigating his father’s business but also his growing feelings for Piper.

Chase, having put some distance between himself and his father, is thrown into a corporate world he never wanted to enter. The twist of finding a half-brother adds another layer of complexity, pushing Chase and his sister Alex into a time crunch before anyone with poor intentions makes them known.

Piper, smart, fierce and independent, brings a captivating charm to the story. Her tough exterior and reluctance to be involved with another Stone family member, create interesting tension with Chase. The way their relationship develops in the book just has you hooked. As we get to know them, between their witty banter, letting their guards down and the many secrets that keep unraveling, they become more engaging to not want to keep reading.

The mystery of the third sibling, Max, creates a curiosity within its own storyline. I will say that leading up to his introduction, I feel a little robbed because the anticipation leading up to that moment had me on the edge needing to find out but I’m patient and will wait to see what’s to come in the next book.

This book had me hooked and I didn’t want to stop reading. As a huge fan of Catheine Bybee, this was something different that I hadn’t experienced before and I love it. Her other books have a subtle, sweep you away feeling but this series has you engaged in a way that you want to keep reading and don’t stop. I feel like the characters in this book are bolder, fierce and grab your attention in a way that is different from the others. The plot twists and unravels will keep you invested until the end turning those pages.

I’m excited to see where this series goes. The next book, The Forgotten One should ease on into our curiosity about Max. Look out for that book in November. I will say this was longer than I expected but definitely worth the read. If you haven’t read yet, add this to your list.

About the Book

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Catherine Bybee comes a tale of a strong-willed dancer exercising her independence and the rich biker she can’t let go.

Salena Barone has broken free of her family and moved into an apartment above the D’Angelos' restaurant, where she works as a manager—without a husband, thank you very much. But even on a restaurant salary, she soon finds herself strapped for cash. Salena’s never been afraid of living on the wild side, though, so she takes on a side hustle that’ll raise big bucks…and eyebrows, if anyone finds out.

Tattooed biker Ryan is the youngest of the wealthy Rutledge wine family and has never dreamed of rings, forever, or continuing the family business. He’s perfectly happy living his own life and helping out hardworking folks in his own way.

When these two independent singles spot each other at a Rutledge-D’Angelo wedding, the attraction is instant. But as their friendship with benefits evolves into something more, the secrets Salena’s keeping—from family, friends, and Ryan—threaten the happily ever after she never knew she wanted.

Review

With the conclusion of The D’Angelos series, The Whole Time, Catherine Bybee wraps up this wonderful series with Salena. Salena has been a tough one to crack but as we see with this book, her hea finally came and it couldn’t have been any sweeter.

With the series, I’m glad Salena was saved for the end. Salena has been labeled wild and troubled but deep down, she has the biggest heart and would fiercely protect the ones she loved. Her love life hasn’t been the greatest but I think mostly due to her protecting her heart from being broken. With someone for everyone, she met Ryan who was a little bit naughty but a great guy. There couldn’t have been two more perfect characters to meet than these two. I couldn’t get enough of them and their journey was worth every page in the book. Two broken people coming together not realizing they were healing themselves together kept me turning the pages.

As usual, we are surrounded by the D’Angelos clan who’s strength and commitment to being there for each other brings love to the book. We get to know more about her parents and really gain insight on why Salena is who she is. Much of the experiences in her family and their perspective had shaped her to make the choices she did. Going through life seeking their approval and love and it being met with an old school mentality really crippled her. So, getting to see her moving out, gaining her independence and finally being in the driver seat of her life, really was a nice journey to see her get to where she was meant to be. Even though her behavior was predictable in the eyes of what people perceived her to be, it was nice getting to see her be able to become the best version of herself.

Overall, this has been a wonderful series with the D’Angelo family. With each book they bring you in as if you’re part of their family. There was something so inviting and memorable about these characters that you just don’t want to let go of. If you haven’t checked this one out, add it to your tbr list.
