Poslední díl série Kings of Rittenhouse. Dávám plný počet bodů, protože oba dva museli překonat jisté překážky, aby mohly být spolu.

A cute, fluffy read that has definitely raised my standards for fluffy reads in general. There were solid threads of realistic character development and even when I got upset at how the MCs responded to situations, it made sense with their backstory and they solved the issue with their partner by clearly communicating why they reacted that way. Healthy relationship-ing? We stan.

I was so intrigued by Colm, he was the most mysterious one and his story was one that I absolutely loved, I love the whole series, seeing it end is bittersweet, it took me a while to read the last chapters, I didn't want it to end. Colm and Imogen's story hooked me from the first page. I absolutely love antiheroes and having Colm portrayed like an arrogant and stubborn guy made me love him even more in this book. Maya Huges wrote an amazing book, a spectacular series and I can't wait to find out what comes next. Bravo great finale!

of all the king books this was definitely my favorite because i felt like their fights made the most sense and they weren’t split up for too long. i also really enjoyed the ending with the baby! also they entirely spoiled the baby cause that doesn’t happen until like halfway through wtf.
as i read: i like that the proposal was fake and not like they had a real relationship. when imo left colm and he like made her breakfast and everything awww i cried. i feel like her almost calling colm preston was a fair reason for her to run out like that makes sense. i kinda hate how much colm is mad at liv for not wanting to be a doctor like i get the sleeping with ford thing but like she’s saying she doesn’t want to why is he so mad. okay actually now that he’s kinda explaining what he did for her i get it a little more but still. like especially because of how much they both hated their parents being doctors. okay wait it’s been 3 months and she doesn’t realize she’s pregnant. okay so they have sex again and then she gets pregnant that makes more sense but also why tf did they put that in the synopsis it literally happens so late in the book. him seeing the ring and still thinking about a family with her is sweet and i like how all in he is. okay no she’s been pregnant fur 3 months omg bestie how do u not know??? ughhhhhh i already know that imogen knowing that they don’t want colm to renew his contract and not telling him will be the reason for their fight. what a fkn shocker they fight because she didn’t tell him. i hope he’s not mad at her about running away like i hope she explains it and he understands it.

I’m not crying, you are.

Ok. The final Rittenhouse couple. I am so sad to see this family go, but at the same time, I am so happy everyone got exactly what they needed.
This couple is no different from the others, in that they are clearly meant to be. Their hurdles are the defining difference.
They each have a lot to learn, with some extra difficulties thrown in.
What a bittersweet ending to an amazing series.

What a way to finish the series, definitely my FAVVV BOOK LIKE IT WAS SO GOOD. Imo is perfect, I have no words she is the definition of selflessness the way she always puts everyone’s well being first before hers ugh. Colm is super stubborn but also an amazing freaking guy and so protective over his loved ones. I’m just in awe with this whole book like I wish it was longer!!! I need more Imo and Colm right now. Really loved this series and the kings friendship.

Since this book is also viewed as a standalone I didn‘t read the books before this one and I truly regret it but I definitely will read them!

A broody, sexy hero and a heroinr who‘s first love died in a tragic accident. If this isn‘t what compels you to read this book it definitely will be the surprise pregnancy. Those two characters have enough baggage for a trip around the world probably not just one trip and that‘s what makes this story so good. You never know who messes up first and both of them do that alot.

Colm‘s first performance in this book is amazing! You can really feel how mest up he is from previous events and how fast Imogen could help him. I was a little annoyed at Imogen througout the book for always keeping everybody else first but without it I probably wouldn‘t have understood her struggles.

Both of them are so good for eachother and I‘m glad they found their way to eachother.

A great end for all characters.

description

This is the final book in the Kings of Rittenhouse series, however, it is only the second book I read from it. I am really picky when it comes to sports/contemporary romance. However, I was intrigued by the surprise pregnancy part and wanted to give this book a chance. It was an okay read for me. There were a couple of things that I didn't like, in particular Colm's behavior, he was very judgmental and acted childish in certain situations. I couldn't fully understand his reasoning at the beginning and that could be because I haven't known him as long as other readers who have read every book in this series. So I was glad that the author included a couple of flashbacks because those helped me a bit more in getting to know the characters better. Colm has been under pressure to act and be a certain way after the death of his parents. Always doing the responsible thing and not really living his life to the fullest. Imogen has been living in the past, and just surviving each day, and taking more on than she can handle.

Imogen she is a very caring and understanding heroine. She was determined to get Colm out of his funk and get him back to playing ice hockey. She has some stuff from the past she is dealing with, but I think she grew a lot in this book. Colm made a couple of rushed decisions and these scared Imogen off, which Colm interpreted wrong sometimes. Open communication, especially in the first half of the book would've been better. I enjoyed this couple more in the last half of the book, and I loved seeing them be more open to each other. Overall, I think this couple were right for each other, and it was nice seeing them happy together. They were two broken characters that helped each other heal and discover what they really want in life. I think readers who have read and been on this journey longer than I have will enjoy this book more than I did. But I still think it can be read as a stand-alone.

by far my favorite

Ugh this is an absolute great book. We see these two heart broken people find happiness when they never thought they could.
