Nearly Undone
I'd risk anything to save her – even my freedom.
Megan Whitaker thought she had them beat – and then everything went to shit. Zander got to walk and Friggs was in the wind, and unfortunately, both were still hell-bent on making her his. Megan and Nick might’ve given Friggs the slip by hiding away in witness protection, but when Thea goes missing, nothing will keep Megan away. Not when her sister’s abduction was her fault.
Thea Whitaker’s dark new reality was something made of nightmares. Friggs might’ve only stolen her to lure out her sister, but it doesn’t keep the sadistic man from taking out his issues on her. Now it’s her turn to be on the receiving end of unspeakable acts, and though she prays her sister can find a way to free her, Thea also fears it, because she knows if Megan fails, Friggs’ will never let either of them go.
With Thea lost and no hope in sight, Megan begrudgingly beseeches the help of the one man who has the connections to find her. But enlisting Zander’s help will come at a price, and for Megan and Nick, it might just cost them everything they’ve been fighting so hard to protect.
New Adult Romantic Suspense / Dark Realistic Fiction
Recommended for 17+ for mature and disturbing situations, language and sexual content.

4/5/16: This story is just flowing out of me these past few days. Totally love how strong and vocal and fearless this girl has gotten. A far cry from the shy and quiet girl in Nearly Broken.
1/21/16: So guess who's finally ready to put her head into the darkness and write the final Nearly book? This girl! Already wrote 3K today and the rest is just bursting to get out of me.
8/13/14: Cover Reveal today. Hope you guys love it too, as it fits well with theme. I've had this cover ready to go for a year now and I've been aching to share it forever now! :)

Well... If you also think the 1st 2 books were dragging, book 3 was quite fast paced. There were some unexpected part but overall i think thats just the way to end it.

This is the third and final book in the trilogy. We had to wait a long time for the book release but I think it was worth it in the end. I liked how the story concluded. This time the story revolved around Megan and her sister Thea. Thea met a mysterious guy one stormy night who saves her from an attack. She starts trusting him and goes out with him few times until one day she just disappears. Megan is devastated and thinks her former abductor Friggs is behind it all. Only person who can help find Friggs and help rescue Thea is Zander. But it is not an easy task to work with a mass manipulator like Zander.
This book is not for the faint hearted. It includes lots of triggers like rape, physical and mental abuse, slavery and torture. I think the writer left the story open so that she can write Zander's book. I hope we can get more of Zander and Megan in the future.

So I have so much to say about this trilogy. My friend had said to me "Suzy you have to read this book!" I couldn't understand why since I haven't read any dark romance books up to this point. So I purchased it because I was looking for something new to read, and I think I said OMG like 1000 times. This is a story about a girl who was abducted and almost had her complete mind erased to become the perfect submissive to the man who wanted her. Now she escapes and starts her life over, and as she is putting her past back together she gets abducted again!!! I was like are you kidding me??!! So if you would like a dark story that captivates your whole mind that makes you think and re-think this is the book for you. Trust me when I say you will start reading Nearly Mended immediately afterwards to see what happens.

I am giving this book a 4 with mixed emotions. I DID NOT like the ending of this book. I felt that the ending was done like a give up just to get the book done. After taking you though hell and back the book ends the way it did!!!! WOW!! Was a toss for me between 3 and 4 rating!

Anyone have any idea where this book is going to be released. Seems like ages since I read the last one

This book pissed me off from start to finish. I actually scanned some of the chapter. Megan was stupid with her decisions and I hated how she treated nick.
ALSO when she went to the salvation place for sex trafficking, she said her name was Claire but when the woman came up she went “Megan?” There were also a few spelling and grammar issues towards the end so if just felt rushed and sloppy. I felt like the series should’ve ended on the second book.

5⭐️ but sad because of Aliksander

Having multiple obsessive slave-trade stalkers seems like more than one girl should have to bear. As if that wasn't enough, the amount of devastation and loss suffered by our heroine within her first 20 years is beyond excessive. I didn't fall into this installment as readily as I did the first two, but it did wrap up the trilogy.

NEARLY UNDONE BY: DEVON ASHLEY
Well to say that this book was surprising would be an understatement. Nearly Undone is SHOCKING and it will rock you down to your foundation. This is not for the faint of heart though. There are some very graphic scenes both violent and sexual, this whole series deals with the horror that is human trafficking, and there are many times your heart will ache while reading this. It is dark, gritty, raw, and devastating. But there is also such strength, courage, and just enough hope to keep you hanging on.
I have to say how much I admired Megan (aka Claire) in this book. She has always been strong throughout the series, but I felt like in this book she really flaunted it. I think she regained some a lot of her confidence and fighting spirit and I really enjoyed watching her push back hard this time around. BUT. While I understood her rational behind a lot of the choices she made, and they were always brave, some just screamed bad judgement to me. There were a couple kindle shouting outbursts from me, I'm not going to lie.
The story was fast paced, lots of action and suspense. Definitely a few moments that will shock the hell out of you! I mean, I still can't get over a few scenes from that compound. I have a feeling they will stay with me for some time. I will also say I REALLY LOVED this ending. It felt just right. I don't do spoilers, so no details, but the ending fit this series so perfectly, I truly couldn't think of anything I would change about it.
I was gifted a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

3.75 stars
I felt like I was waiting ages for this book to be released and then I randomly came across it one day and it was only like €3.30. I thought there would be some announcement or something.
Anyway, I honestly don't know what to think about this book and I don't know what rating is appropriate. Am I happy with it? Yes and no. I liked the ending and I love Nick. It had some excitement and shocking moments as usual. But I feel like it lacked direction. It was like the author was making it up as she went along. You never knew what the end goal was supposed to be. Devon Ashley also skimmed over some scenes that I wanted more detail on. Again, I'm not sure what to think of Zander's ending. I guess it pleased as many people as it could have.
I was never happy about Thea being dragged into the story at the end of book 2. It really bugged me. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting, but it was a bit of a waste too. Just more rape scenes to end with .
I think Megan has changed her name too many times now and I can't believe how easily Nick accepts them. Her speeches towards the end also seemed a little out of character (she opened up very quickly) and they were a bit preachy and cheesy. But she is a likeable character and you can't help but root for her. So ultimately, I guess I enjoyed this book and it ended things really well. But I have mixed feelings and I think I preferred books 1 and 2.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS TRILOGY! One of my favorite authors too. Devon Ashley has a talent for writing gripping stories with unforgettable characters. I believe the second in this trilogy was the best, likely because it was the most twisted in my opinion (not that this one didn't have some disturbing things...) but all in all this is one trilogy I will read over and over.
Well done, Devon Ashley! You really set the bar with this one! If you haven't read this series, it's a MUST.
