All or Nothing at All, Volume 3 by Jennifer Probst

3.0

2.5 stars
Re-reading this book about two years later had me really question how much I enjoyed it. Don't get me wrong. I have so much love for Sydney and Becca, they are the reason I can't fully rate this book badly. However, the way Tristan handles the truth bothers me so much.

Spoiler

He has every right to be mad that she never told him or his family that was Becca was his. However, to basically force her hand in marriage by threatening to go through the court and have her daughter "potentially" taken away from her is fucked up. Not to mention how for quite a bit of time, his brothers and significant others also gave her the cold shoulder. It bothers me that it is highlighted or chalked up to him not knowing how to deal with his emotions, but he still loves her. It comes over very manipulative and downright disgusting. I hated his character and honestly I wish she didn't say yes to his proposal. Yes he learns his lesson when she decides to walk away and sees the original birth certificate with his name on it, but that doesn't excuse (especially when he doesn't flat out apologize for all the hurt and accusations he through at her.

I want to love Tristan, but I have a hard time being in love with his character at the end of this. Overall, I would probably still come back to re-read this book only for Sydney because I love her so much. Still, I am sadly disappointed with at least sixty percent of storyline.
