She knew what she was doing and didn't want to romanticize it. Chase surprised me because I either thought he would be heartless or gross like his friend Dean. I liked that he tried so hard to find her after everything and then went full tilt when they eventually meet up again.

Such a good story. I liked how protective Dwayne was to Charity after her saved her especially considering how he's made to be such a cold hard man. ISuch a good story. I liked how protective Dwayne was to Charity after her saved her especially considering how he's made to be such a cold hard man. It was interesting to see how far he came from being a snot nosed kid in the first book to a valued (and maybe a little unstable) 'employee' for his uncles. I enjoyed Charity's side of the story it was told so well that I felt like I was the one that had experienced all that trauma.

Lots of drama and H was staddling the line between charming and aggressive but the h seemed like she could handle it and enjoyed their banter. H was unnecessarily cruel to h towards the end but it made the make up that much more satisfying, especially since he seemed to visibly be suffering from their 3rd act breakup....more

It def helped that both characters were celibate during separation (which seems insane bc H was known as such a ladies man but I guess it emphasizes how much their separation affected him). It was cute how Gene was the one that pushed/bullied them to work through their differences. I also loved how the H orchestrated things in the background to also get them in the same place for a specific length of time to hopefully work things out. Definitely showed his dedication to at least trying to get her back....more

I can feel his magic reaching into my head and reeling back again because I’m pissed and I’m free. I am free. “I crave her more than I crave life itself. If I cannot have her, I will cease breathing. This is a matter of survival for me. I must…” “You must what?” he asks. “I must marry her.” I exhale a breath I feel like I’ve held my entire life. “I must marry her.”

I absolutely loved getting a glimpse inside the commander's head, my god...who would have thought that this absolute powerhouse of control felt so deeply! The bromance between Et'enne and D'Artaron was hilarious and that whole scene made me teary eye'd for the affection that this royal family has for him. While Chole wasn't my favorite character ever I did think she was perfect for D'Artaron and it was very rewarding seeing her grow in confidence. I wished she had been more upset by both her sister and brother-in-law. I felt they got a complete free pass for using her to better themselves and no one ever mentioned it. I'm hoping there are more books in this series. I don't want to leave this world yet!!...more

Oh zaddy Benedict!!! I must say he took me by surprise. We got glimpses of him in the previous books and yet I still wasn't prepared for how completely unhinged (in the best possible way) and naughty this man was going to be. I loved every minute of this wild ride. You won't find warm and fuzzy in this book but you will get passionate and possessive.

I wasn't sure how I was gonna feel about a 'keeping it all in the family' situation but I have to say this was a surprisingly deeper story. Was it smutty? Oh yes and it won't be everyone's cup of tea but Noelle was mature and intelligent and knew her own mind. It was rewarding to see father and son work through their issues and everyone was rewarded ...more

It started out really good. I liked the grumpy/sunshine vibe and the forced proximity but Tu completely ruined it for me. She over stepped some major boundaries and didn't even comprehend or acknowledge how hurtful some of her antics were.
She also really forced his hand with starting the fling even though he warned her how it would affect him. I just felt overwhelmingly sad and sorry for Mitch. I also could not get over the relationship with her sis. I would never treat one of my sisters like that!!
The ending was very cute and hallmark worthy so I added an extra star....more
