Review

“You gave me hope when it had all been taken from me. You didn’t owe me a thing, yet you attempted to give me all you could.”
I have read every story in this series and I enjoyed this one just as much as the other. They are great romances that all have loveable characters and a captivating story lines. In this story we follow Colt’s story and his romance with Alexis. I have to say that I think I loved these two characters the most out of all the books but I think that also has to do with the fact that we meet the adorable and cute Maddison.
“His voice was one of those voices that made you want to keep him talking. It made you feel warm inside and safe.”
Colt is older than the previous guys and that definitely shows but it a good way. He is confident, kind, strong and knows pretty much from the start that he wants these two in his life and he will do what it takes to prove to Alexis that he would never hurt her or her little girl. I also loved Alexis and Maddison. Alexis was a strong woman, she wanted to help herself and do the right thing for her daughter but she was also willing to acknowledge that getting help from others is okay.
“I want you and Maddison not just today, not just tomorrow, but forever. I’m ready to show you girls what love feels like. I have so much inside of me, and I’m ready to shower you both with it.”
The plot just had a brilliant mix of everything. There was romance, laughter, tense moments and suspense. I smiled, I worried, I was on the edge of my seat for some moment and I shouted (in my head) when things weren’t going the way I wanted them to. It was obvious to me how it was going to end but that didn’t bother me, sometimes you just need a good story, with a HEA that makes you feel happy and leaves you feeling in a good mood; and that’s what this story delivered.
“The distance had grown between us, but that was all on me. I made sure I kept the space between us. I just wasn’t sure I was ready for what I knew would happen if I touched him. I knew we were both fighting against the need to feel the other.”
I loved hearing from the previous characters as well, I’m not sure if there are any others in the series but if that was the ending then it every story was perfectly rounded up and if not then I can’t wait to read more!
