I totally loved this series and I loved the irrepressible totally flawed Drew. He makes no apologies for who he is and he makes sure to tell us ladies not to expect more from our men because after all they are just men. Emma Chase has written a great fun series and between the hilarious bits she writes some genuinely poignant lines. Highly recommend the series if you want some light fun reading. Be warned the language and sex scenes are explicit so if you are easily offended this will not be your cup of tea.

Mais quel bonheur !!! J'ai complètement adoré ce tome, quel plaisir de retrouver ce sale gosse de Drew aux manettes du récit !! Je pense que Drew est un de mes héros préférés en matière de romance contempo fraîche et sexy, il est tout à fait impossible de ne pas craquer pour lui.

Ce tome est en quelque sorte un retour aux sources, on ne retrouve pas seulement la voix de Drew, mais on retrouve aussi le ton léger et amusant du tout premier tome, qui avait fait un carton aux US lors de sa sortie, ici sur le forum et enfin en VF, pour le plus grand bonheur de toutes. Du coup, moi qui ai lu les autres tomes en VO, j'avais un peu peur de la VF (je suis une vraie snob en matière de traduction, j'assume d'ailleurs complètement ^^), mais la trad. est parfaite ! Drew n'a aucun filtre, il me fait mourir de rire dans les deux langues, franchement, chapeau, car ce n'était pas gagné !

Alors il faut quand même être honnête, il ne se passe pas grand chose dans Tied, qui reprend la recette gagnante du 1er tome : humour, tendresse et moments sexys sont au rendez-vous. Ce livre c'est un peu comme le tout dernier épisode d'une série qu'on a suivi, et adoré, durant de nombreuses années. On retrouve tous les personnages, on les voit en mode 'happy end', et même s'ils sont heureux et casés, ils n'ont rien perdu de leur mordant et de leur folie douce. Les scènes s'enchaînent sans temps morts, on a droit à des clins d’œil fréquents et une fois encore, Drew s'amuse à nous interpeller et déblatère sur tout et n'importe quoi, reprend ses comparaisons loufoques, sa mauvaise foi est un peu moins forte qu'avant. Il a mûri notre Drew, et je trouve ça émouvant et attendrissant de le voir aussi amoureux de Kate.

Coup de cœur donc, et c'est avec une pointe de tristesse que j'ai refermé ce livre et mis un terme à cette très jolie série.

Tied is the fourth and final book in the Tangled series and cannot be read as a standalone. Books one, two, and four are about Drew and Kate. Book three is Matthew and Dee’s story.

This book felt like a heartfelt love letter to fans of this wonderful series. Emma Chase’s remarkable ability to write so convincingly from a male point of view is what drew me to the first book, [b:Tangled|18297707|Tangled (Tangled, #1)|Emma Chase|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1375808439s/18297707.jpg|21868234]. The amazing Drew Evans has earned a top spot on my list of favorite book boyfriends. Although [b:Twisted|17977710|Twisted (Tangled, #2)|Emma Chase|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1387087236s/17977710.jpg|25205902] is told from Kate’s perspective, Drew is back to tell the story in Tied in his own his own unique way.

Drew and Kate are five years into their relationship and stronger than ever. The first part of the book shows how they have adjusted to life as parents. It’s delightful seeing Drew in action, being the wonderful dad I knew he would be.

Kate and Drew are finally ready to walk down the aisle but first it’s time for some pre-wedding festivities. Drew, Kate and their friends fly off to Las Vegas for their respective bachelor and bachelorette parties. You can imagine the potential for trouble in Sin City with this crazy crew.

I was delighted to see all of the highly entertaining secondary characters return. It’s like catching up with old friends. There’s trouble in paradise for one couple while another pair has just experienced a major life event.

Once again, this book was all about Drew for me. He's always been cocky and funny but he reaches new heights in this book.

“She’s got you under her evil spell. You’ve been twat-notized by the golden watch between Dee’s legs.”


Drew’s witty banter; his hysterical lessons with Billy in attracting ladies; the antics with his friends; his thoughts on fatherhood and interactions with little James all made me laugh so hard I had tears rolling down my face. But the thing that touched my heart was seeing just how much Drew has grown in his relationship with Kate since the beginning of the series.

“I love you, Kate. I’m going to love you forever. And whatever comes after forever—I’m going to love you then too.”


I found this book to be more sexy, more hilarious, and more heartwarming than I expected. It’s just… more. What a great way to end a fantastic series! I’ll miss you, Drew.

Amo a Drew.
El segundo libro no lo pude terminar de leer porque aunque adoro a Kate cuando leía las cosas de su punto de vista era bastante cansando, mientras que el POV de Drew esta tan bien escrito, es un personaje que se lee tan fácilmente.

Y para esta parte tenemos a Kate y Drew 2 años después del segundo libro narrado por Kate (del cual sólo leí el epílogo, no me arrepiento).

Y pues que les puedo decir amo más a Drew. Es un personaje tan entrañable, que no quiero dejar de leer.

Pero aún así si es el final esta bien para mi.

Drew por siempre.

Standing ovation. This is the perfect way to end a series. It's fun and sweet, and smart and an all around good time. I love these characters so much. The way they interact and the way you can tell how much they care for each other, it's just so good!

Also, how can you not love what comes out of Drew's mouth.
