By far my favorite in the series. I'm a sucker for enemies to lovers so Sloane and Lucian were intriguing from book one.

It's still a cheesy, over the top Knockemout novel but it felt like the plot and characters had more substance and the writing was improved. This book was steamier too.

4.0

I started off loving the first of the Knockemout books so much I had to immediately read the next. I wanted to love this last book because I was so excited to learn more about Sloan and Lucian but I just felt bored of the books. Each book pretty much followed the same exact plot just with different characters. I only would rate as a 4 because it was still likable and the spicy scenes were so good

Lucian, aka Lucifer, aka Suit Daddy had daddy issues-- rightfully so. 

Sloane, the girl next door had the perfect family. Hell even Lucifer thought so. 

Tragically, Simon, Sloane's dad lost his battle to cancer. Sloane grieves the loss as anyone does... In her own way. 

Through his death, Simon led Sloan and Lucian together. 

Steamy sex, and lots of it later we have finally burned all the bad guys. We have couples who are all happily married and we have BABIES!
