This book was not the romance Alice Clayton has written in the first 3 books of this series. It is so much more. It is about finding yourself, relationships with family, and most importantly to me, about the bad rep pit bulls get. The book revolves around Chloe who ends up running a pit bull rescue after realizing she wants more out of life. The socialization and rehabilitation of pit bulls are a big part of this book. Sure there is a hot veterinarian she ends up falling for but there is just so much more to this book. Actually in all Alice's books friendship, respect and love come before romance. A very funny (I laughed out loud sooooooo often), very verbal and witty banter orientated series that I plan on picking up again and again.

I found this a little boring, and I don't think we really got to know Lucas.

This series is one of my favorite romantic series of all time. They have everything cute/awesome relationship, great characters to follow and a very readable plot line. This series isn't as heavy in tension and angst which is it's nice for a change to have more of a fun and feel good feel to it. Highly recommend this series, annoyed at myself for not reading it sooner!

This was probably my favourite book in the series so far.

I loved Chloe and Lucas together and separate. Chloe is literally finding herself, away from the confines of her overbearing, pageant show mother and soon-to-be southern wife lifestyle. Now it's time to be the independent woman she intends to be until she sees a ginger, overly good-looking man in a bar and knows she's done for. Especially when that man then becomes the vet working with her rehoming pitbull programme.

Lucas not only helps Chloe find out who she is but he brings a lot of humour and a hell of a lot of spice to the storyline. Alice is so good at creating a build-up and then hitting with a few spicy scenes at the end. I absolutely loved the fact that the conflict between these two wasn't just resolved there and then. The fact that it was humour-filled and horrifying at the same time is a talent.

I probably would have rated this higher, but I really disliked the traumatic scene with an abused dog that led to the consummation of the relationship. And then that incident was just forgotten in the afterglow. Poorly handled and unnecessary.

Wasn't as good as the previous books. I mean, I still loved it. It had all the humor and wit and sass that I have come to expect, but it just didn't stand up to the rest of the series.

My least liked book of the series. Chloe is so unlikable in the first few chapters and it ruined the tone for the rest of the book.
