You finally get some perspective from Colton, and not that you needed it before, but you definitely need it now! Great quick read

3.5 stars
This series is slowly growing on me.
The main reason that I enjoyed this more than Driven is because I finally understood Colton's intentions.

This book is a fabulous companion to the series. You get to finally know what was going through Colton's head! It gives him much needed depth in the beginning of the relationship.

This is not a stand alone!! It really should be read with the series or right after the 3rd book. I love getting to relive all my favorites moments and seeing his POV. A wonderful treat for fans of the series.

I listened to the audiobook narrated by the team of Tatiana Sokolov and Sean Crisden, wonderful as always. They make such a great pair on all their reads. Wonderfully consistent voices and distinct characterizations. Their energy and pace are perfect for the story. I can not even get into how much I love this pairing, almost as much as I love Rylee and Colton!!

What a wonderful treat at the end of the series. I am still waiting on audiobooks for the friends HEA. I want Haddie and Quinlan, like now! Please let them be as awesome as this series was, with plenty of catch up with Rylee and Colton!

This writing is terrible. Like an imagined version of a cartoon man.

I loved getting more of Colton's point of view. I can't wait for Haddie and Beck's story and for the ten year gap fill in.

I LOVED the driven series so was ecstatic to see more written from Colton’s POV. After reading the first book, I mentioned in my review that I wished some of the chapters had been from his POV so I could understand him better and thankfully the next books’ in the series gave me that but this book filled in all the extra lingering questions I had and I was not disappointed. This gave me answers to my questions in the first book but I also liked learning how his proposal was conceived, what he felt that night in Florida in the bar, a wedding through his eyes etc. I also liked how the author explains a few things before each of the chapters about character perspective or what she changed after a few drafts with help of her readers to make the books even better. Since I sped through this series, I made sure to go back to the appropriate chapters to read them again before I read Colton’s just to really put myself back in the story. I think doing this really enhanced my experience reading this and made the series even more special. Definitely recommend.

So that's what he was thinking! Boy Rylee deserves a gold medal for putting up with Colton's manic thought Olympics but I'm glad she did. I enjoyed the insight into Colton, his fears, and his wants, his love. And his friendship with Becks. I will definitely be re-reading the trilogy now.

This was by far one of my favorite book series!! It blows 50 Shades out of the water! These are my favorite books and I can't wait to read more books by Kristy!! She truly has a gift! Write Kristy write!!!
