About the author

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Nicole Edwards spends her days stringing words together to make complete sentences. Sometimes not. Her best friend is coffee, and she has a love/hate relationship with sarcasm. She’s been accused of having a filthy imagination, which she admits is true.

Nicole lives in the suburbs of Austin, Texas. She proudly claims one husband, three grown children, and two bosses (better known as the dogs). When she isn’t writing, watching football or hockey, or keeping her bosses happy, you can probably find her with a book in hand.

I waited a long time for this wedding! This was an awesome follow up to Tag and McKenna's love story. This perfectly hot sexy couple! I needed more of them and I am so glad I received it. I loved how NE gave us a look into the future 10 years at the end of the book! I always love to know where the characters end up! Another great read!

Nicole Edwards has mastered these characters in the Club Destiny series, and with this short novella given us the most beautiful, romantic and hot wedding we could ask for. Tag and McKenna have been together for two years, and now is there time. With a surprise vacation planned, Tag takes McKenna on a cruise with all of their closest friends from previous books. It is fun, flirty, hot and a great time to catch up with our favorites. There are even some tear jerking scenes with touching dialogue. In true Edward's style, the story is full of heat, passion and great friends.

I loved the narration of this by Tor Thom and Charley Ongel. These books need narration with good chemistry and these two never miss the mark. Thom gives these alpha men the voices with a richness that you know ther have true affection for their friends and their partners. Ongel brings the women to life with fun and flirtiness, keeping them real and beautiful.

Amazing follow-up Club Destiny

This is Tag and McKenna's story. Tag comes home and tells McKenna that he is taking her away for 7 days. She is not happy to find out they leave in the morning. No time to coordinate with her staff at work, pack her bags etc. Tag won't tell her where they are going and she is already packed. There is nothing for her to do but get some good sleep. He blindfold her so she has no idea. Big surprise coming her way. Buy this book to get all the storyline..

Thank you Tor Thom and Charley Ongel for gifting me this hot little book. As always you rock.

Tag a successful lawyer, McKenna is a successful magazine publisher both are busy with their careers. After two years of being a couple Tag decides to take the next step. So he surprises McKenna with a cruise, invites all of there friends and family to make it memorable and special.
This story is funny because of one particular scene where if you know these male characters it’s totally out of most of their comfort zones.
It’s romantic, and sentimental, it’s short but sweet.

I absolutely LOVED this novella for Tag and McKenna. The chemistry between them was off the charts before but as you read the entire story including how Tag planned the entire wedding it makes you swoon! The entire ode to Magic Mike was hysterical and the visions I had of the entire scene was hysterical. I loved her big bad Tag is a big bad teddy bear for McKenna and he would do anything for her without hesitation.

[Toula]

Have it in Audio. Great Listen. It was a great novella.
Loved how Tag and Makena was so into each other.
Tag has a surprise for Makena. He knows the surprise will totally blow her mind. But he wants both of them to show the world they are one.
Tag needs to find a way to get Makena mind not figuring out till the last stage what he has planned. He needs help from all the club members and Makenna parents. What is the surprise

[Joy Whiteside]

This book, what can I say about it. Once I started reading this there was no stopping. I read this in one sitting and then I desperately needed more.

The writing in this book is amazing, Nicole takes you away to another world and once you are there you are experiencing what the characters are and feel as though you know them personally.

This book has got to be read, there is no doubt about. I would recommend this book to others it is that good.

[Krystyn]

Great , sexy short

Great read for a sexy afternoon. This great short allows you to see a little more from some of your favorite characters in the series. I haven't read all of the series yet but will definitely be doing so soon.

The narration was perfect! I love the duet narration by Tor and Charley!

[Jdursi]

Ms. Edwards gives us a glimpse into Tag and McKenna’s future with this CLUB DESTINY novella. Tag talks a reluctant McKenna into a much needed vacation. Unbeknownst to her, it will be one that she’ll never forget. Kudos to Tag for pulling it off. I enjoyed getting to see all my favorites from the series spend this special time with the couple.

[Reggie]

Not only do we get to witness the wedding of Tag and McKenna, but we get to catch up with the friends from earlier books. It was a short, sweet and steamy read.
I accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review.

[Sharon A Shovan]

What an appropriate title for this story, “ADORED”! Loved this one ! Tag and McKenna are an amazing couple. Very romantic. Loved his surprise. Got to read all about their extended family. Could not have asked for a better follow up.

[Peggy Draper]

It was okay - a recap of what I already expected happened to each after their stories ended. Easy quick read but could have done without.

Do you trust me, McKenna?”

Yes, McKenna you should. Because you know Tag is going to make it soooo worth your while. Tag and McKenna find their way to Happy Ever Married in this novella. This couple is one of my favorites from Infatuation (Club Destiny #4). Although I love McKenna’s spunky attitude, its Tag that I really enjoy reading. He is definitely an alpha male, but Ms. Edwards writes him in a way you learn his vulnerable side. And she does not disappoint here. Tag wants the perfect getaway and surprise wedding for the love of his life – and he pulls it off with all our Club Destiny friends.

This is a novella that could stand alone if you want as the story lends itself not to make too many references to the original novel that would lose a reader. However, once you get to know them, I dare you not to pick up book #4 to learn how they got here. The novella does tie up some secondary relationships and moves along at a reasonable expected pace.

If you are looking for a fun, fast summer read on vacation, this is a recommendation to fill that spot on your travel itinerary. If you are a Club Destiny fan, you’ll want to see what steam Tag and McKenna burn up through the pages.

Tag and McKenna are my absolutely favorite character of Nicole's. I was so glad to get more of them in this short and sweet story. As always even with short words Nicole writes a great story. Thanks for the peek into their lives once again!

[Kim]

Tag and McKenna are one of my favorite CD couples, so it was wonderful to see their story continued as they finally made it to their wedding day! Tag orchestrated a wonderful surprise for McKenna including all of their closest friends and family on a cruise culminating in their ceremony before they returned to port. Although this is a novella, it didn't lack in the heat category, and there were plenty of fun moments and little reveals about the other couples traveling with them. I have to say the night of the bachelor/ bachelorette parties produced one of my favorite scenes!! Thank you Nicole Edwards for giving us more Tag and McKenna as well as an epilogue that gives us a great wrap up for them.

[Maria]

Thoroughly loved this book. Personally, I enjoy when authors continue about the lives of main characters. There are times when characters need to be expanded on. Though it may be a little tricky in series, simply because the future of other characters are mentioned which is great, provided they don’t have their own novella.
The love that came with Tag and McKenna was phenomenal. You could almost feel it. It was heartfelt and emotional on both parties. Must say though, Nicole sure does have a thing for front clasp bras 😉...
Overall, the series is still steamy and you do get the sense that you are also part of the Devotion group. If you’re a fan of Nicole’s work, you won’t be disappointed.
New meaning on the word ‘Adored’

[Alison Fees]

Ever wonder what has happened to Tag and McKenna from the Club Destiny series? Now you can find out in this novella. Tag plans a surprise vacation for McKenna which includes a surprise wedding! I loved following the days leading up to the wedding and how all the friends and family were involved along the way. It wouldn't be the same without everyone there. There were several parts that I was laughing out loud. Without giving anything away think Magic Mike! I definitely felt like I got some much needed closure with this couple. I was happy to see them finally get their happy ending. ***I received this book complimentary from the author in return for my honest review***

[Neek]

This was the perfect short read. It packed so much in the story for a novella. Catching up with old characters is always good but getting everyone the appropriate time in a novella has to be difficult and Nicole nailed it. She gave just enough attention to the supporting characters and let the readers imagination do the rest.
Although Tag and McKenna are not my favorite characters from the series (that honor will forever be Luke, Cole, and Sierra) they were likable enough and Adored just made me like them that much more.
Since it is a continuing series, I did find it odd the Epilogue went out 10 years...

[Karen Branton]

Talk about sweeping a girl off her feet!!! Adored did just that!!!! I absolutely fell in love with this book!!! Adored is the adult version of Cinderella. Prince Charming, Tag, sweeps, Cinderella, McKenna, off her feet in a most romantic fairy tale way with a Nicole Edwards’ sexy and sizzling twist of heat and passion. How could you not fall in love with this book!!!!
