Really loved this story but thought the conflict between Dana and Jordan resolved way too quick. Like this fight/misunderstanding kept this apart for 7 years and in the span of a morning they resolved it and became the “perfect” couple, he buys a ring that day, says all these beautiful romantic things that were completely out of character for him? It was just such a 180 for them. Otherwise Im really enjoying the series and can’t wait to read the next one

I want to like Dana. Really, I do. But her story just didn't keep me as interested. It was easy to put it on hold to read something else.

I didn't like it as much as the first one, though I definitely didn't dislike it. Second chance romances are usually a miss with me, and I'll say that this one did better than I expected - I was so annoyed with Jordan's high-handed bullcrap for the first half that I thought I'd never accept him as the hero. And even though I think the resolution was a little simple, I did believe he cared about Dana, and that they deserved another chance.

I will say, though, that it mostly seems Kane helps them more than hurts them. Like, I feel like they only find the path to the key - in all these books - because he attacks them and draws them into the right place.

It's the yearly Nora Roberts read-a-thon. I blame my father. They're his books. But I have to say that although this series had the same "Oh look! Three awesome women! Three sexy but realistic-sorta men! Let's play matchy match! Oh and there's a bad guy and a quest and blah whatever." thing going on, I still found it pretty entertaining.

I will admit that Nora Roberts does create really sexy male characters. I hate her a little for it.
