Critical reception
Entertainment Weekly wrote that "songs like 'Always a Part of Me', a breezy ballad, prove she’s still a sensual soul siren." USA Today determined that Bofill "still has a rich, multi-octave voice, and a knack for penning ballads that stick to the ribs." The Orlando Sentinel stated that "syrupy synths clog the production much of the time, but Bofill keeps her vocals tasteful even when the setting is tacky."
