From the moment Detonate began, I was hooked—completely immersed in Maddie and Grayson’s storm of a connection. Their dynamic crackled with unresolved tension, a slow-burn kind of electricity that never lets up. If you’re into emotionally charged love stories with a side of chaos, this one delivers.

Grayson's past is finally revealed and it bring so much clarity to his behavior. His ex-wife did a number on him and he's built up a wall of bricks due to the serious emotional damage she has done. Maddie kicks *ss in this book and the banter and foreplay between the two is a chef's kiss. Well done Luna Mason! 

Beyond the romance, the side plots keep the pace brisk and the suspense high. Just when you think you’ve figured things out, a curveball hits—and suddenly, you're flipping pages faster than ever. That ending? Let’s just say it sets the stage for the next book in the best way possible.
