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!

My most anticipated read/release of the year and it did not disappoint. It was the perfect ending to the series and my new favourite book. I loved the first two books but the tension and torrid-pasts of Lucian and Sloane had been building for 1100 pages or so and I couldn’t wait to delve into their characters. I loved that we got some chapters set in the past (which differs from the previous two books where the mcs didn’t have a past with each other) and as usual, I loved that the chapters flitted between both mcs so you get both of their perspectives. Lucy wrote their backstory perfectly, it was heart-wrenching and felt like a valid enough reason to make them true childhood friends-to enemies-to lovers, but it didn’t make the characters irredeemable. Their history, present, and character growth in this book were incredible to read, would recommend it to everyone. Perfection!
