Jade Dollston’s “Love Without Control” is the conclusion to her The Bouvier Family Saga, and it reveals what really happened to Evie Bouvier, a question fans of the series have had since book one.

 

I thought that this was an absolutely phenomenal read. Jade Dollston truly knocked it out of the park with this one - in fact, I think this might be my new favorite book that she’s written!

 

Evie’s story was raw and powerful, dark and gritty, angsty and emotional. She goes through a truly horrible experience, but she somehow manages to stay strong and not let her trauma destroy her.

 

Despite all the dark content in this book, there were also a good laugh out loud out loud moments, as well as many scenes filled with snarky banter between Evie and her love interest, Damiano/Dane.

 

All in all, I would highly recommend reading this book, but I also suggest reading this series in order, because it will truly enhance your reading experience!
