In All the Rest by Christina Berry, Sheryl has a huge personality, which makes it difficult to have a boyfriend. She has been perpetually single, and she is already thirty-five years old without kids. All her friends have kids, and she is starting to feel jealous. One day at the dinner table, she gets a weird idea and decides to implement it against the advice of her friend, Ari. The quest to find someone to just impregnate her begins immediately, but it is not without ups and downs. One time she gets involved with some bikers, which puts her in a difficult spot with Manic. She has known Manic from the bar for many years and considers him her friend. Manic had flatly refused to impregnate her when she had initially asked. How will things turn out between them as they continue to spend more time together?
Despite All the Rest by Christina Berry being the fourth book in the Lost in Austin series, it can easily be read as a standalone. With highly engaging dialogue, there was never a dull moment, and I was hooked from the first chapter to the last. The vivid descriptions helped me to create mental pictures and also left me yearning for more. Christina also ensured the plot flowed seamlessly, which meant no room for confusion for the reader. The reader will also appreciate other things covered, such as mental health issues, which got me thinking about the diagnosis and management of such issues. The characters were well-developed, and the excellent narration added to the overall beauty of this work. This was an amazing read, and I look forward to reading something else by Christina.
