Oh Theo!!
This book, let me tell ya...
I'll admit going in that I was iffy on Erin. In the previous books, I couldn't quite put my finger on it. There was just something about her that kind of half rubbed me wrong. Like, I didn't mind the ball-buster attitude but there was just something. When Faith got her to rage after Theo "died" and then when she finally admitted she was pregnant and wanted to be a mother to TJ, my opinion started to change. Then she was able to look at finding Theo with hope and it looked better. I did get frustrated with how easily she tried to walk away from Theo in this book though. She spent so much time promising that she was going to love him and wait but then there were several times where Theo was a moron so she just started to give up. I did like that when she wasn't giving up, she was all over letting him feel his way through. She knew who he'd been and she could still see that, even if he couldn't. I did find myself laughing when she took off the kid gloves and just started pounding him when he needed it. I did like the fact that she was the one to take out McDonald in the end, even though I kind of wished there'd been a little more of a fight to it. But her comment about McDonald knowing who won was really kind of amazing too.
Theo! God, Theo Taggert! On the one hand, I got that he was dealing with stuff that wasn't easy. But literally everyone and their cousin was calling him on his crap and he still held onto his guilt until it was almost too late. I kind of hated how he didn't really try with TJ initially. Like, at first, I could see him going with the "the kid" thought process because while Erin had always been with him, he didn't have anything to connect him to TJ at the beginning. But even when he was considering something with Erin, he still refused to try and acknowledge TJ. I did like Nick's basically smacking him between the eyes with his conversation. And then when Robert came in and did it to. Of course, the pages may have gotten blurry for some reason (I think the onion ninjas were sneaking around my apartment) when Theo really held TJ for the first time, when he was realizing that TJ was seeing him as he was now, instead of who he'd been before McDonald. I also liked Ten's conversation with him before he and Erin left; he pointed out that yeah there'd been a bad call but he also pointed out the ripples from said call.
And Hutch! Oh, my Hutch! While everyone seemed to be wanting to believe, I still wondered. His disappearance in the last book was too easy. I will admit to being slightly surprised that it was Ian's idea; I'd kind of been thinking there was something with Ten and/or Fain going on instead. But I loved that Hutch seems to have had a small chance to kind of shine and prove to himself who he is. I loved how Ian embraced him when he asked to come home (those damn ninjas made another appearance at that point too...I think I have an infestation I need to find). I was a little surprised at the whole thing with Owen but given what happened, I was kind of glad that Erin was able to figure out how to forgive him. And I kind of want to see his story. I really want to see Robert's story though...he's clearly got a past of some kind and everyone seems to have their own theories. I'll admit that him finding family of some kind would be nice, but there's a part of me that kind of hopes he doesn't have like a wife and kids waiting for him. Not just because of his crush on Ariel (and I do want to see something come of that). I did like how much he cared for Theo and how he tried to help as best he could.
