Red Dirt Heart 3 by N.R. Walker
5.0
Book safety, content warnings, and tropes down below.
I wanted Travis to have me, to take me, to make me his. I wanted to give him what he gave me, and I wanted him to know I belonged only to him.
I don’t really have tons to say that I haven’t already for the first two books, but this book really is just as good as the others in the series. Probably the angstiest one as well. Nothing awful, but a smidge more than the previous books. It’s so good. There’s something about this series that feels super special. Like you become a part of Sutton Station for a while when reading. God, that sounds cheesy as hell, but if you’ve read these books, I bet you know what I mean.
You can somehow spend three books straight in mostly the same location, with the same (found) family, and not get bored at all. I love it. And I can’t forget to mention Nugget (the baby wombat). Star of the show, honestly.
The sound of Travis snorting made us both look over to him. “Look at this,” he said, putting Nugget on the floor with some more apple. The little wombat took a tiny bite and jolted, then did some random jumpy-turning-in-circles thing. Travis laughed again. “I think he likes apple.” Nugget then faced the door and bolted, his little stubby legs moving long before his body, but he scooted out the door and Travis took off after him.
