I've been beyond excited to read this one for so long. This is actually what got me into the series. As much as I love Emma Chase's books, this series wasn't high on my list. Until one day I read the synopsis for this book, realized it's not out yet and it's a third of a series, so I read the first two. Enjoyed them greatly...THEN finally this one released.

Logan and Ellie's story is everything and more. At first I didn't like how it jumped through the years so much, but later realized how important it is for the story. Since there is an age difference as well as a position difference, it was important for us to read how Ellie's attraction started as a crush and became more. And how for Logan he tried to ignore the attraction but could only for so long. We're treated to when Logan is first assigned to her, throughout her last high school year, graduation, eighteenth birthday and finally young twenties, where the attraction becomes a larger and more permanent thing. But still, position keeps these two apart.

When they do come together, Emma Chase delivers! It is HOT between these two. The sex aside, the workup and attraction these two have together no matter what they're doing is HOT. Secondly, it's plain adorable. The way they feel for each other, especially how he feels for her, is so sweet to read. His chapters just melt my inside.

Additionally it's great to read about the other characters. Olivia and Nicholas are a very big part of course. We get to see the result of their story. This book features Henry's engagement and wedding, so the second half of this book (when Ellie and Logan get together) it's only about a year after book 2. Reading about these others are awesome.

This book is easily my favorite of the series and I don't think Emma Chase can beat Ellie and Logan with a different couple, is she chooses to write more of this series.

Delicious. Body guard romances are a trope I love. And wow Logan-.
That's mostly because of the voice actor of the audiobook though.
Also the angst was gratuitous and I LOVED it. The smut, sadly, was meh. But everything else was sooo good. Definitely very dramatic and over the top, but I don't read books for the realism.
There were a lot of timeskips. A LOT. I don't really like time skips but I acknowledge that for the format of the book it was mandatory. The format being not at all like the blurb makes it seems to be. The blurbs described the book like it takes time in the present and there are only flashbacks. That's not true. About 50% of the book proceeds with time jumps.
Also Tommy can fold me over like a beach chair, but his book isn't in audiobook format so I won't here that sweet irish accent. UGh
And if you like Wes Ravenel from Lisa Kleypas' "The Ravenels" you wil like Henry. They are literally the same person. Not that his archetype is very original. But do you see me caring? NO. I will eat his book uP.
