fleurette 's review for:

Ball & Chain by Abigail Roux
5.0

This is probably the lowest rated book in this series and I'm not sure why (I will have to read some reviews to get to the core of the matter). I absolutely love it!

Deuce, Ty's brother, is getting married in Scotland. Ty and Zane are of course invited, but at the request of Deuce they also take Nick and Kelly with them. Someone threatens to kidnap Deuce's daughter to use her to get secret information from her grandfather's company. The first corpse is found earlier than anyone would expect, followed by another one. Ty, Zane, Nick and Kelly must quickly find the murderer and not kill each other in the meantime. Especially since Nick and Ty have too many secrets between them.

Zane and Ty are finally working in a complete unison! I've been waiting for it for so long, through all these (sometimes really irrational) quarrels between them. It doesn't even bother me that Ty and Nick are arguing, there are too many secrets between them. I am also happy that despite everything, they try to explain everything and cooperate. It is very nice to see both couples together and happy.

The suspense part is really good with a lot of twists and turns. Although I have to admit that the corpses fall one after another, maybe even to exaggeration. The action is definitely fast. And the solution to the whole mystery is completely unexpected.

It is a pity that only one more book in the series has been left. Especially since it seems that Ty and Zane finally found a balance in their lives and relationship. I can not wait for the next book.
