I wanted to love this one as much as I loved the others, but Chloe wasn't my favorite and knowing the formula the author uses ended up making it a little predictable at times.

Spicy as always, sad to come to the end of the trilogy but happy all the boys got their ever afters

I really love this book. I that we were able to see behind and really see him blossom into the man that he becomes at the end of the book. I like how witty Chloe is with him and how their relationship blossoms at first I hope that would’ve been more of a dramatic twist in the third act, but I’m glad that the book went in a more with them actually communicating with one another and expressing what they need which I don’t see often in Overall, I really love this book and I think it’s one of my favorite in the series.

The final King brother gets his HEA! It was not an easy road for him that’s for sure. 

 

I loved Chloe so much. She was such a pure ray of sunshine to Roman’s constant storm cloud that followed him around. Roman uses Chloe’s age as an excuse a lot because he doesn’t want to admit that he is attracted to her because it makes him too much like his father. He has been fighting to still be the ruthless businessman his father turned him into, while also showing the world that he is nothing like that man. In his eyes, entering into a relationship with his younger Executive Assistant would make him just like his father. 

 

Chloe’s life has essentially been on hold for years while she helped her father through heartache of her mother walking out & then the struggles of being diagnosed with an Autoimmune Disease that has temporarily taken away his ability to paint. A relationship with Roman is the first thing she has solely done for herself in years. 

 

I feel like the conversations where Roman realizes he can have the woman he loves without being looked at just like his father could’ve dug a little deeper, and I really would have loved to see some Karma coming back to the Ex-Mrs. Roman King because man did she deserve that. Overall though I really loved getting to go on this journey with Roman and Chloe. 

 

I am so sad that this series has come to an end but I loved getting to see little snippets of the whole family throughout this one. L.M. Dalgleish was one of the first Authors I discovered when I dove back into reading 3 years ago. I am so glad I found her books and I can honestly say…if she writes it I will read it!

Yalan yok. Akıcı ve güzeldin. Şu ara en çok ihtiyaç duyduğum şey... Belki bir tık da daha kısa olsan harika olurdu. Ama o da tuzu biberi diyelim.

Seriye, ailenin en büyük çocuğu, işkolik ve ciddi mizaçlısı olan Roman ile veda ediyoruz.
Roman görünüş olarak tam babasının oğlu diye düşündürüyor. Ama aslında alaka seviyeleri sıfır. Hoş gel de bunu anlat yavrucağa. Babamın hatalarını tekrarlamayacağım, ben daha iyi bir insan ve CEO olacağım derken hayatın neşesinden uzaklaşmış. Tek odak noktası şirketi en tepeye çıkarmak. Ama tecrübeli asistanı taşınmak durumunda kalınca işleri biraz sekteye uğrar.

Burda devreye Chole giriyor. Genç ve güzel asistanı... Aklından neler neler geçiyor
