I loved practically everything about this novel and thought it was a fantastic conclusion to the series. Reese was such a lovable lead character and I enjoyed getting to learn more about Ben and his back story. I loved the development of the relationship between the two of them. There was very low angst which was appreciated but you could really feel both of them fall for each other. They had excellent banter and were extremely entertaining to read. As always I loved getting to revisit the characters from the previous novels and I appreciated how well everything was tied together. This novel tackled some difficult topics but presented them extremely well. The one thing I particularly liked about this novel was that it felt realistic and I could actually buy into the story. The only thing I wish I would have seen was a bit more exploring into the secondary characters particularly Reese's friends and the relationship between her mom and Jack. Despite this, Reese and Ben were so entertaining to read I did not mind getting to explore more of their story. My favourite book in the series and a really great read that reinforced how much I adore K.A. Tucker's work!

Very happy I finally finished this series. Well, almost finished because I totally forgot about the novella! Which I'm going to dive into ASAP.

This was my first KA Tucker listen. Reese & Ben both had terrible pasts. They met randomly in Cancun & it wasn't good. They never thought their paths would cross again. Little did they know that fate would bring them back together. Excellent Narration by Elizabeth Louise & Deacon Lee.

I loved the romance in this book and the sexual chemistry throughout. It was well written and really kept my attention through the whole book. I loved the pitfalls that they had to overcome and the progress they made together.

Ok this is the LASSSSTTT Review that I missed last week when I was dealing with moving, and other crazy stuff going on and didn't have the time or energy to review anything!!

I read this book a while ago and I really didn't think I could love another one of K.A's books as much as I LOVED Ten Tiny Breaths. Kacey was my all time favorite female character and with her witty, sarcastic, but caring nature she was hard to beat...

Then I was introduced to Reese and I fell in love with her the same way I did Kacey! I actually LOVED her more!!



Reese is a badass who has had a lot of shit thrown at her since she was very young. It wasn't until her stepdad came back into the picture that she even caught a break. She started to thrive in her environment and then Ben comes along and turns her world upside down like most leading men do.
He straight knocks Reese on her ass and she's smitten with him ever since.. And he can't seem to get enough of her either... BUT, of course, there is too much drama in each of their lives that makes it almost impossible for them to be together...



This whole story is incredible from the very first moment we are introduced to Reese, to the very end when we see where everyone's lives are headed... I was never bored and you could not get me to put the book down AT ALL!!

I swooned, I laughed...HARD, I was pissed, frustrated... Happy!! Tucker pulled every emotion out of me and I didn't know what to do or think or where I was at... NOTHING!! I just knew that I wanted to devour this story and then read it again and again until I had almost every line memorized. There wasn't a character in this story that I didn't love (well, ok there was this one bitch but I will let you read all about her... she is not worth me writing about), there wasn't a single part of this story that I would have changed.

I loved it all!!

I just knew I would love Ben's story and I am glad him and Kacey never worked out because Reese and Ben were truly meant to be together! So if you were always a pro-Ben person, like me, then you will not be disappointed in where Tucker took his character and I guarantee you will love this book as much as I did!!!



Overall I give this book a 5 "Reese is one badass bitch" STARS!!!!

Thanks K.A for giving us this story and I can't wait to see which characters you come up with next!!
