Thoughts: Personally not for me, I ended up skimming a lot.

This is my first book by this author and I really enjoyed it. The story line totally intrigued me I read this bad boy all in one sitting. There was push and pull, hotness and you could feel the struggle between them. I thought it ended in a great place, absolutely happy with the outcome. I need to check out some more books by this author!

"I was never, in all my life, going to forget that man. My incredible first lover. My beautiful Theodore. My loveable Mr. Black.”

I really wanted to rate this one higher but I couldn’t. Basically, it started off so strong but fell a bit flat about 70% into the book.

I love taboo romance and even with ALL the flaws, it was still an okay read. I liked Chloe and Theo together. The chemistry between them was off the charts. The sexy scenes between them were great and they honestly seem to connect and get along well.

However if you didn’t tell me that Theo was an older man, I wouldn’t have known. He didn’t really come off as someone who was in his 40s. Chloe was said to be mature for her age but I didn't get that from her character. Honestly, Theo and Chloe seriously acted the exact same way, childish at times and jumped to conclusions often.

Now, I was so not okay with that ending. I’m not going to say too much about it but it just didn’t give me the satisfaction that I wanted. Was it a realistic ending? Yes, but damn, I wanted so much more.

I did see that this was a duet and honestly, I don’t think I can get my emotions together to read another book about them just to get disappointed again in the end. Just sayin’.

I absolutely love Chloe and Theo. The supporting cast are all well developed characters. The setup was good but the drama was over the top IMO. I know this is fiction but the level of drama made this book less realistic and less relatable.

seriously very bad. childish.
Trying to fit into the simplistic template.
There is zero magic.
I listened to the audio, the narrator is awful.

Now I'm not one to rip apart a book, but with the stress the author put me through, and the repetitive guilt filled text we could have least got an HEA.

Don't even get me started on Sterling. It was as if the author was trying to get rid of some guilt, but to me, it was kicking a man while he was down.


Like even if something like that could happen , Chloe should have kept that shit to herself.


Holy fuck if I was Theo.


kill me


Like fuck.


 I mean If the younger woman and older man is your thing, I'd recommend reading just for smut.




Was not the biggest fan of the age gap difference and found the book to not be that well written. Continued it because as always, if I start a book I have to finish it but wouldn’t be something I’d recommend

The story of Theo Black and Chloe Knight is one of infatuation turned desire, set against a backdrop of tragedy, guilt, and eventual redemption.

Theo, a rugged, tattooed biker and grieving widower, finds solace in the most unlikely place: Chloe Knight, the nineteen-year-old neighbor and best friend of his daughter. Their connection, sparked in a moment of vulnerability, spirals into a passionate encounter that sets the stage for a tumultuous relationship. Williams navigates the complexities of their bond, exploring the ramifications of their union not just for themselves but for the family and friendships entwined with their lives.

Chloe's journey from a naive teenager to a woman confronting the consequences of her choices is portrayed with nuance and depth. Her relationship with Theo, filled with longing and remorse, is a testament to the story's exploration of love's multifaceted nature.


emotional sad medium-paced

The only reason I’m not giving this 5 stars is because it broke my heart. I didn’t want that ending 

I really liked the book it was well written. Had some good angst.

I was not a fan of the "HEA" and would of been willing to bet I would of knocked a star off of my review had their not been a sequel.

(When I went to amazon the title of the book changed to something more generic like "Mr. Black"...much prefered this title.
