Okay I liked this one more than books 2 and 3. Book 1 still stands as my favorite in this series but this book had a little something extra special about it.
Our heroine Maggie is the younger sister of the hero from book 2. We know that she was sexually assaulted and is recovering from the trauma of that - we found this out in the last couple of books when all the sex trafficking stuff went down. Rhys our hero is a total playboy, but it’s just a mask. He was one of the most fascinating characters out of everyone we met in these last 3 books. I really enjoyed the flashbacks to when he was little and the relationship we see with his mom and dad. Queue the tears. I cried A LOT.
The spice in this book was fantastic. There was a beautiful build up with these two characters - tons of sexual tension and they payoff was *chef’s kiss* 🔥 Although there was a bit of Instalove feel to this story, it wasn’t as apparent as the last two books and the connection between these two felt a lot more believable. I definitely recommend this one!
