The album received mixed reviews from the critics.

  • Jason Birchmeier, from Allmusic, gave a mixed review, giving the album 3.5 out of 5 stars, saying:

    On their third album, the sisters come up with another handful of Latin pop gems amid an otherwise solid album. Hanna and Ashley were born in the States and sing well in English, so it was only a matter of time before they tried out an English-language crossover single like "Already Home." The song's crossover potential is enhanced by a vocal feature courtesy of upstart folk-rock singer/songwriter Brandi Carlile.
