Beyond Forever by Kit Rocha
5.0
MY KING AND QUEEN. This novella is everything. We only ever just heard about Dallas and Lex's first meeting, about Dallas walking in on Lex with her arm in his safe. And now we get the story.
No spoilers, but if you guys read Beyond Surrender (and you should, because this novella starts out after that and flashbacks into a time before the first book), then you'll know that one character that hit you straight in the feels and you can't look at the ocean the same way ever again? YEAH. Said character is in this story and the first time the character is mentioned, and every time after that, I teared up. Because feels. And everything hurts.
So...back to O'Kane royalty. This story starts out with opening night and the unveiling of the new and improved Broken Circle. Still a place of debauchery in proper O'Kane form, Dallas starts to reminisce about a certain safe, dug out from what was left of the original Broken Circle.
The story jumps back to six years ago, and with each chapter, a different period in time where Dallas and Lex's life intertwined. This story really does show just how much Lex helped shape the O'Kanes. Dallas was very set in his ways and what work men and women should be doing to help build the O'Kanes. Well, Lex sure set him straight.
This story is hot, and the sexual tension is as explosive as what we've read in Beyond Control, if not more. We see the early days of Sector Four and how Dallas rose to power. The ending goes full circle back to their present-day, with Dallas and Lex living their glorious HEA life, and it is fiery. *fans self*
For fans of the O'Kanes, this is a novella you don't want to miss!

"You give your men a whole hell of a lot more than you get. But you don't even fucking see what women do around here. If we all get the fuck out, you won't last a single goddamn week."
