Forgiving Keven is the 7th book in The Kennedy Boys series. This book can be read as a standalone, but I would suggest reading them all in order because you meet a lot of characters in the previous books. This story is told from the POV's of Keven and Cheryl. I was so excited to read Keven's story. He was the super smart computer techy guy from the pervious books. He would break into FBI cases and files to help his family.

This book starts out with Keven getting in trouble with the FBI and he can either work with them or go to prison. He decides to work with them when he realizes his childhood sweetheart Cheryl is in the crossfires. Cheryl doesn't know the dealings of her fiancée or the dangers she could be in.

Keven and Cheryl dated from sophomore to senior year. He hurt her and she ended up moving. Now years later they reconnect. He's always been in love with her, and she realizes she's in love wit him as well, but she's engaged. Can she learn to trust Keven again and get away from her crazy husband? Can Keven help Cheryl before it's to late?

I really lied this book, and can't wait to read Keanu's story!

Another hit for author Siobhan Davis! She knows how to write a family's story and in a way that will continue to have you falling for her characters and their twisted reality. This time around we get Keven Kennedy and Cheryl Keeland's second chance romance.

At the end of Seducing Kaden (The Kennedy Boys #6) we get a snippet (YOU CAN read this book and others as a standalone) of what is to come for Keven. His book starts off with that glance where he did not hesitate sign on the dotted line to work for the FBI and the reason behind it was due to his first love, Cheryl.

One obstacle is that Cheryl is currently engaged and finishing her last year in photography. When Keven unexpectedly comes back in her life feelings for him surfaces but the past is something that she cannot get over. Back then she was left clueless on why they had come to the point of breaking up. Keven has his work cut out for him in explaining what happened in the past and why he is in her life again. The challenge...when working for the FBI there are limited on what you can and cannot disclose and he has to take alternate measures to prove that Cheryl is and always have been the one for him.

This was a page turner kind of read where you do not know what will happen next. It was filled with mystery and suspense along the way with two people whose chemistry is still strong even after years has passed. The risk is whether more is possible especially considering who Cheryl is engaged to and Keven's line of work. Also we continue to get the strong bond of this family in always being there for each other regardless of the situation. Sooo looking forward into reading more and falling deeper into The Kennedy family and their world.

Loved this book so much! Such a good second chance at love. Cheryl working through what happened in the past with Keven and finally realizing how she still has so many feelings for him, loved it!

UGH!!! Since I started reading through the KU app/ subscription, I've had ads for books popping up all over my FB page. 'Forgiving Keven' was the first of The Kennedy Boys to pop up for me. And thank goodness I read these books in order. They can be read as stand-alones, but to get the whole backstory of these handsome boys, start with 'Finding Kyler'. There, you'll be introduced to these mouth watering boys...turned men.

Okay, now to Keven. Faye had it right when she saw him walking around shirtless in his apartment. She looked like she wanted to lick his abs and Kaden totally called her out on it. Keven is an IT genius! He's also the protector of his family by tracking their every move...with them knowing of course. But he's also still heartbroken. So he's basically had a revolving door of women since things with his ex ended abruptly.

Now to Cheryl. When she popped up in Kaden and Eva's book a lightbulb went off. I knew that was Keven's girl. But I didn't know how or why they weren't together. Cheryl was engaged to this guy Daniel. From what was told, they were barely together for a year before he popped the question. Of course she said yes...because it's not like she was still harboring feelings of her ex. NO. WAY! When Cheryl and Daniel relocate to Massachusetts, it's like she has a radar for knowing that she may run into Keven. And when she does *panting* the feelings that she felt, I swear I could feel them.

It took a "while" for Cheryl to come to her senses and realize that Daniel was not the man she thought she knew. But it didn't take long for her and Keven to pick off where they left off. Kaden and Keven's books hold more danger in them than the previous two. And for that, I'm grateful. I was on the edge of my seat, pausing during reading, and taking deep breaths because I was so nervous and scared. Deep down I knew that nothing would happen, but it didn't make me any less frightened.

This series has been unbelievable so far. I can't wait to read about the triplets.

Wow

I read this in one sitting but then I usually do with the Kennedy boys series. It kept me gripped from the get go - there was no waiting for things to happen.
I’ve read all the other books in the series so I had an invested interest in seeing some of my most favourite characters again but it would work fine as a stand-alone read.
I loved the excitement and the thrills of this book whilst routing for two of the most frustrating characters as far as relationships are concerned I wanted to bang their heads together but this was all part of the feels the book gave me.
The story moves quickly and fluently and I didn’t feel like it was dragging along at any point what so ever.
I now cannot wait for releasing Keanu
