Yeah Latina and Dale get together in a relationship and it's pretty well done I already know some people are gonna have a problem with it but meh it's handled in a pretty mature way and as I said before they really flesh out their relationship in a really nice way, Latinas love is believable and it's not just like WHAM (like in Usagi Drop...) and their age's are not THAT far apart so I was k ok with it even more so when it's revealed they will live on for a pretty long time so what's a couple of years matter? also they take it all the way to a physical relationship which I also particularly enjoyed, not cuz I like reading awkward first time s*x but again cuz it's very weird for stories to be mature about their relationships and actually develop them all the way, so yeah pretty enjoyable event.

This ends up not being NTR/what the author makes you believe. As someone who views both NTR and infidelity as the most vile/revolting content in both reality and fiction, I despise the author for what they put the reader through. I was heartbroken and literally sick with worry about it for almost the entire book. In the 6th book the MC rapes his girlfriend in a scene that was supposed to be passed off as comedy... Aside from a light skimming of the next book, I dropped the series after this.

The relationship they went into is not bad, or even wrong in any way. Dale is only ~10y older than Latina, and he did not lay his hands on her before the confession since he only saw her as his cute daughter, and never even had any intentions on going that way at all anyways. Latina also never saw Dale as her dad, foster parent, or even anything at all besides a man of the opposite sex. Yes, even from way back then when Dale picked her up.
