Leo was temptation personified, rugged sex appeal entangled with the thrill of the forbidden. He was the flame I’d known would burn but I’d touched it anyway.
I met those caramel eyes and drowned. Would she hold out a hand to haul me to the surface?
“What are we?”
“Beats the hell out of me. I’ve never done this before.”
“Had a baby?”
“Had a Cassandra.”
He was my safety net. One day, I hoped to be his.
“They will come for us.”
“They will.”
“What do we do?”
“What we’ve always done. We protect what’s ours.”
“At all costs.”

Despite accidental pregnancy being a trope I don’t generally enjoy, I really liked reading this book! Leo is one of those characters who can’t see the good in them and therefore consistently gets in their own way of happiness. I found myself rooting for Leo right from the start. I also really like Cassandra. I think the up and down dynamic of their relationship for the first half of the book was very realistic. I was so glad when they worked it out. I wish we got a little more closure when it came to the attempted murder plot- I needed a little bit for explanation as to why Tucker’s nephew went to such lengths to try to kill Leo specifically <\spoiler>. Maybe we’ll find out more in the final book. I have not been able to put this series down and am sad to only have one book left!

I don't know if I connected with them as much as the other couples but there were still plenty of sweet scenes; Leo reading to Cass in the bath will live rent free in my mind for a while.
