Best Kept Secret by Skye Warren
5.0
Best Kept Secret is the intense finale of the Rochester trilogy, which concludes Jane and Beau’s story.
Warning: This is Book Three of the Rochester trilogy and continues the story from Book Two, there may be spoilers from the previous books.
Synopsis:
Beau is feeling very bad, both for himself and the little girl who has come to mean more to him than only a responsibility, about ordering Jane to leave, but he still believes that he did what had to be done. Then comes some unsettling news, and his unravelling past places him in a difficult position. Will he get his happily ever after with Jane?
Review:
After the cliffhanger that the previous book ended in, I started reading this with literally my breath held in. It was silly maybe, but I felt so scared for Jane, especially after all she went through in life already. Why does [a:Skye Warren|5339130|Skye Warren|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1580833030p2/5339130.jpg] make her protagonists suffer so much? But I do love all the wonderful things that happen after, so it’s okay, I guess…
After that initially terrifying moment though, Best Kept Secret started off with a bang, with the supposed villain having been revealed. But in true Warren style, there is always this lingering suspense about who the real villain is, and that is what makes the author’s writing so intense and unputdownable.
Well, my synopsis above does make it feel like it is only Beau Rochester’s story when it is clearly not. Narrated from both Jane and Beau’s POV in the first-person, the story beautifully concluded the Rochester trilogy.
The best thing was the chemistry between Jane and Beau though, as the level of hotness between them was off the charts. And of course, when it is accompanied with a declaration of love (finally!) and what a “sir, yes sir!” kinda declaration it was. I was laughing out loud the entire time. Okay, not the correct emotion, maybe…
The story did feel a bit anticlimactic but the sweet epilogue made up for it. Especially considering how serious and brooding Rochester still is regarding everything, especially Jane. It felt special, their kind of love.
Thank you to Valentine PR for an e-ARC of the book.
