these authors break hearts

F*cking Shawn.

Now on to the next book. Seeing as I’ve read these 3 books in 2 days, I can’t do anything else but move on. I need everyone to get their heads outta their asses and mend my heart a little.

This is why I have to wait for the series to be complete bc these cliffhangers kill me. But at least now I can go read the next book.

this series is so entertaining and i love it, however i feel like it could've been less books, or at least shorter ones. somehow there are very few things happening and they all take place in the last 100 pages. i loved the ending, but how did they not put a bullet through shawn's head yet. i mean, there's 4 of them + luther + the harlequins + the damned men and shawn only has his crew. as for the characters, i love maverick, jj, chase and luther and i don't really appreciate rogue and fox. i feel like his only personality trait is her and she is too whiny. i'm obviously going to finish the series because i need to know what is going on, but i hope that the plot holes are going to be filled and that the questions are going ti be answered. i'm still waiting to know what they hid all those years ago.

FUCKING SHAWN. That’s all.

Not really, but ughhh. This one was ROUGH. Poor Chase, never thought I’d be saying that before this one, but POOR CHASE.

I loved every second of this one, right up until the end where everything went to shit and we got one hell of a cliff hanger.

The Twisted Sisters broke my heart AGAIN, here’s to hoping the last book puts me back together again

OMFG! This series just keeps getting better and better.

The group are dealing with the events of the last book, dealing with losses and working on how to move forward. Rogue is still working on convincing her boys that she doesn’t belong to just one of them whilst a war is looming that would affect the whole town. 

I think this book has pulled at my heartstrings the most so far. The hurt and anger the MCs go through was awful, and it only makes me want their HEA even quicker. It was action packed with the spiciest scenes ever *bites fist*

I was mad as hell as Fox. He really did piss me off in this book with his overbearing, possessive ways and I didn’t even feel an ounce of sorrow for him at the end. In my opinion, he needed to go through that. 

Overall, I loved it. I devoured it in two days, not able to put it down and I cannot wait to start the next one.

Hmmmm.... I'm not really sure how to feel about this book. It suffered just like the rest from being so terribly drawn out. I'm getting pretty tired of the same old themes. Rogue feels like a curse. Fox is a controlling ass hole. Chase thinks he has no self worth. Maverick is just a bastard who actually loves everyone but pretends to hate them. Oh and JJ thinks all anyone wants him for is sex. There insecurities are going no where apparently.

As much as I love the Rogue, JJ, Maverick love, I want more. I'm so ready for Fox to get the fuck over himself. That man thinks he is the bees knees. Everyone is constantly telling him he is flawed and needs to fix it but that stubborn ass hole just doesn't hear them.

Chase still is the most dynamic and interesting character. I appreciated how vulnerable he was after being held hostage by Sean. It felt real. He didn't jump back into being his same cocky self. He dealt with a lot of self consciousness. I'm so sad he never really got a moment with Rogue. And then fucking Fox just dumps him. That fucker. I know he'll come back and I can't wait to see how that turns out.

Also FUCKING ROGUE and her constant, I'm a curse on the boys, drives me INSANE. I fucking knew she was going to give herself over to Sean. What I didn't see coming was her little video convincing the boys to hate her. And damn did she lay it on thick. I don't know how she'll ever recover from that but I know they will.
