I loved this one! It was a great read and I adored these two new characters. This story is a little different since our characters personalities are so different and I adored them. They are both new to bond recovery and are part of Duke's new training system as they were brought in by Quick and Brian and I loved the connections. This book was well written and held me from beginning to end. Ty has an idea of thinking that I definitely appreciated in regards to relationships and it was awesome to watch him court Kel. This was a fun and great direction for this series to take and I truly can't wait for more!
The narrator did a phenomenal job with these characters and really bringing the story to life.

It kills me to give a book in this series such a low rating when every other one is usually 5 stars and hits my frequent re-read and favorites lists. But this was a big departure for this series and it didn't work for me for a number of reasons. Mainly... it was just too simplistic. There was no conflict in the plot - there was no flaws in the characters. They met, started falling, and then that was it. Particularly Ty was too perfect to be believable... or interesting.

A Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words Review An Alisa Review:

Rating: 5 stars out of 5

I love this series so much. So the guys are ready to not take such an active role in retrieving their bounties and they are looking to bring in some they think they can trust. Kell has a problem with acting before he thinks but Quick gives him the opportunity to do something else with himself, he’ll just need to show the other guys he is worthy. Ty has pretty much been on his own since his father’s deployment, working to support his mother’s care while trying to find his soul mate.

Ty’s father taught him such a different way to see the world and others and I just loved it and how much he respected others and how he treated everyone. Kell has trouble believing anyone would really want him after all that had happened with his father and how stand-offish he is to many but the right man can get past his defenses.

I loved how Ty didn’t let the fact the Kell is male keep him from exploring a relationship with him, even if he wasn’t quite ready to admit it. Kell deserved to be cherished and Ty wasn’t scared to do that or stand up to his stubbornness. I loved seeing their thoughts and feelings throughout the story and it made it even easier to understand and connect with them. They worked well together as partners at work and in their personal life and will get so much more time as they live their life together. I hope Ty’s dedication to Kell and their marriage will put a bug in the other guys’ ears possibly for the future. I look forward to meeting Dana’s and Ford’s recruits next time.

The cover art by Jay Aheer is great and I love how they all are similar in style but still different.

DNF. I was excited excited to start this audio. I’ve loved every single one previously listen to in the Promises as well as Nothing Special series. But this one is not grabbing me at all. After about three hours, I’m giving up. There’s not one bit of the same pull and tug that all previous books of have offered. Could be me but I’m going to cash in now.

The two main characters - esp. Ty - are a bit too much for me. The rigidity of their discipline and morality is intimidating.
The book reminds me of Call of Alpha from the author's Blue Moon series.
