I can’t believe this was the end of the Sunder boys series.I am so happy that it was Zee’s story. It fit so well to end the series and it was so heartfelt and so emotional, just like I felt while reading this book knowing it was the end. I was on the edge of my seat throughout the entire story and couldn’t read it fast enough. I had to know how it was going to end.

After his brother died, Zee replaced him in the band and has been the quiet one. He has been living his turmoil in quiet and we come to realize he has had just as much trouble as his bandmates. Reading his story completely tore my heart apart. I fell completely in love with Zee and wanted him to get his HEA.

Alexis comes in to Zee’s life in a completely unexpected way. She fights to survive and grabs life by the horns. Zee saves her on a night when things could have gone horribly wrong and they immediately are connected. They must work together and overcome personal battles, open old wounds, and deal with their baggage in order to heal.

It’s not unknown that I have not been a fan of the rockstar trope. However, with authors like AL Jackson, I’m becoming more and more of a fan of them. If you haven’t read this series, pick it up! I started towards the end and was amazed to find that I was not lost at all. (Yes, they are standalones in series but sometimes you still have the chance of lost details.) I am going back to read from the beginning and I’m sure I will re-read the one’s I’ve already read. AMAZING!

Grateful to have received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
