Synopsis:
Jase and Bethany are back! And how! In the concluding book of the Irresistible Attraction Trilogy. The book starts with a heartbreaking scene from the past, from Beth's past. It is as beautiful as it is painful.
An interrogation with Officer Walsh is in order since he caught Beth red-handed, literally. Beth loves Jase and depends on him for the name of her sister's killer. But, she is wavering at Officer Walsh's offer of a fresh start. She knows she can't leave Jase, not now, and also that he is everywhere (his presence), so she expects him to save her.
Post the prison scare, Beth takes a breather from Jase and decides to take out some me time. While Beth terribly misses him, Jase and Co are hot on the heels of Marcus – Suspect No 1 in Jenny's disappearance.
The books have to be read in the following order:

Review:
The action started in A Single Glance with Bethany Fawn's search for her dead sister, Jennifer Parks, her only family. She starts looking for answers in The Red Room, a bar run by one of the Cross Brothers, Jase, about whom Jennifer often talked about. With support from her both a colleague in a local youth mental hospital and a dear friend, Laura; and a Coverless book that Jenny left her, Beth tries to unravel the mystery of her death. There's a gradual revelation of the actual enemy, Marcus, a rival of the Cross Brothers. And a secret is dropped out of the blue, totally unexpected, which is answered in this final book! Beth, in spite of considering Jase her enemy and his dark and sinful past, can't stop herself from falling in love with him. And whatever Jase tells himself, he is spellbound with this strong, stubborn woman, and wants to protect her at all costs. Then there's Officer Cody Walsh, who looks that he can be their friend, but he does have his own agenda, and what if he's a threat? And that brings us to the end of A Single Kiss.

I am glad the author revealed almost everything in the first half, which gave it proper time for the upcoming action. Jase also opens up and reveals his personal space to Beth. Maybe I can finally understand Beth. In spite of the danger that Jase is, Love conquers all apparently. Though I am still not sure about their playing with fire thingy. Heh! Also, it has graphic violence, not to curdle your blood, but definitely to raise the hair on your neck.

“Everyone you love will die before you do.”

All the build-up of suspense gives way to mind-blowing action. And at long last, the mystery of the Coverless book is unveiled. Not only Beth, the ending gave me goosebumps too, as if there is something sinister lurking just around the corner. Though I did feel a bit cheated, where is justice? Marcus' whereabouts and Jenny's condition is not made clear.

However, the big surprise at the end makes up for it.

Trigger Warning: The book has violence and erotic scenes, some of which can be disturbing.

It’s been said many times before, but Jase Cross is the best bad decision you will make. He’s the mistake you want to have on repeat.

This conclusion to his romance with Bethany answers so many of the questions posed in the previous two books. The connections you make based on the clues left behind, lead the way to solving the mystery so well.

The pair have come such a long way from their start. Realizations are made, feeling are crushed, tempers flare and emotions run rampant. You feel the love and the passion as well as the pain and anguish.

“We’re both moths to each other’s flames, ignited by our touch. We’re drawn together, destroyed together. It used to scare me, but there’s no fighting it. Isn’t that what love is?”

That question is so real and raw and more are posed and answered in the final book of Jases’ series. Willow creates these characters that draw you in and make you love them one after the other, but I’m sticking with the thought that #JaseCrossIsEverything. She has crafted such an intriguing tale of two people who work so well in their opposing views.

Bethany is the dose of reality he needs and watching them transform and come full circle makes for a great read and even better conclusion.

What a great finish to Jace and Bethany’s love story. Definitely a wild ride with twist, turns, lies, love, steamy romance, and crazy emotions. The Cross brothers are just o so dreamy and all alpha male until the women in their lives force them to break all their rules. Sad to see it end but was a great series with an awesome conclusion! Don’t miss out on this series!

Finally!!!!

Jase and Bethany finally have their HEA and he's able to rescue her sister who she thought was dead. Not sure how Marcus plays out but I think that is in the next series. This series is spellbinding and full of angst and passion. Read the series! You won't regret it!

What a fantastic end to a wonderful love story series.
I might even go and say that this book is my favourite because I was hoping for their HEA so much.
Their love and feelings grow a lot during their adventure and the chemistry is always very intense.
Same great writing style that makes you wanting more words from a book and author.
Everyone needs to read this great love story.
