I almost stopped reading at around 7% because I hated Jade so much. A woman can be strong, independent, and live a carefree life without being obnoxious and crude. I continued on because I loved all the rest of the books in this series so much that I hated to give up on this one. Anyway, I’m glad I kept with it because as the story went on, Jade got better and I really enjoyed her and Nic’s story. I really hope this isn’t the last book in the series.

This was a really enjoyable and at times gripping read. That drew me in from the start and held my attention throughout.
With pockets of action and suspense. As well as great characters. Including Jade, who I loved. Mainly because she was such a sassy, fun, foul mouthed, and kick ass heroine. Who made me laugh, didn't take any crap and most importantly never apologised for being who she was. Which was refreshing and great to read. As for Nick, the hero of this story. I definitely thought he redeemed himself and I liked him more as the story went on. Although I didn't necessarily see him and Jade together. But it definitely worked and as the story progressed I was really rooting for them. Especially with all the family issues Nick faces.
However I do wish there had been more story after the second incident involving Nick and Jade, as the aftermath did feel a little rushed. Yet saying that I did really enjoy it and anyone who is a fan of this series will I'm sure love Jade too.

Unexpectedly emotional...
Even though the blurb warned that tragedy strikes in this book, I wasn’t ready at all. This was the story of two people who are not relationship-type people finding love and discovering the meaning and strength of love especially in the face of loss. I enjoyed the overall themes of fear of loss and grief related to love but also discovering that there is power in the risk of loving and supporting someone else. Love this series. Even though beware, there is a tragic element that comes out of nowhere so gird your loins.
