This is book 4 of this series. Emily has been kidnapped but the question is by who?? We have Luke's criminal, drug dealing Uncle who wants him to come work for him. There is the one percenter MC club that is after him and his club. There is the gang that is after them. There is the mob to deal with. Emily's birth father who has come back to town and Emily's crazy ex still wants her. Oh and let's not forget she just got out of the hospital for high blood pressure and it's made her pregnancy high risk and it's too soon to have the baby. Oops, one more... Someone has convinced the president of the club that Luke is an untrustworthy narc. so he has been kicked out of the club.
So, who has her and how is he going to get her back? Guess you'll have to read to find out because I'm not telling.

Dark, emotional, and completely unputdownable—this series just keeps getting better.

One You Never Leave hits hard in all the right ways. Lexy Timms takes the raw grit of the MC world and mixes it with a love story that refuses to break, no matter how much danger and chaos surrounds it. This book felt deeper, heavier, and more intense than the earlier ones—in the best way.

The characters carry so much weight on their shoulders, and watching them try to protect each other while the world crashes around them had me hooked. The emotional tension? Amazing. The romance? Addictive. The suspense? Enough to keep me flipping pages way too late at night.

What I loved most:
• Strong character growth through real struggle
• Chemistry that feels lived-in and passionate
• High-stakes MC drama that never lets up
• A storyline that tightens everything from the earlier books

This installment proves why the Hades’ Spawn series is so addictive. It’s gritty, heartfelt, and full of moments that punch you right in the chest.

Absolutely Brilliant.
I was once again pulled into this book from the beginning which is where I stayed until I had read the last word written. All the while I had a mini movie playing out in my head.
There are twists, turn and surprises throughout the book. Some of the surprises are bigger than others, some you will see coming, others you won't but they all aide in making the book the awesome read that it is.
Emotions that the characters go through can be felt, some may even pull on your heart strings. They did on mine.
This series is getting better with each book. I only have one left to read now.

Emily and Luke can't get a break. Emily is having medical problems with her pregnancy and Luke finds her passed out and she goes to the hospital. Even there her stupid ex-boyfriend comes in her room and threatens her with lawsuits to ruin her and Luke so he can marry her. There is so much going on no wonder Luke is feeling overwhelmed. Then the worst happens Emily is kidnapped. The suspect list is long. Great series love it! Exciting read.

I really enjoyed this series. This has been the first series of books that I've read within a week and the sex scenes were more realistic than some of the other books I've been reading. I was confused sometimes of what Luke was supposed to do or what was going down with the Hombres/Rojos and the Wise guys but that might just be me. Anyways I really enjoyed the whole series.

Luke & Emily - This was a free audio book series for me off of the internet. I thought that the story was really good for being free and there were a lot of twist and turns with the story that kept my interest. I really cannot review all the books in the series because like I said all the books ran together with the audio version I was listening too.

Great read

This series has lots of twists and turns with a lot of characters to keep track of. But, I enjoyed reading Lexy Timms' saga of Luke and Emily and how they developed as characters over time.

Overall, I’m pretty pleased with the conclusion to this. There were some parts where the story would jump forward in time that felt jarring, but I liked the story overall.

Great book

What a fantastic end to this series, mafia, drug lords, kidnapping, dirty FBI men, plenty of twists and turns, action, intrigue and romance. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and their story, this was a non-stop cover to cover read for me,I couldn't put it down. This is one set of books you won't want to miss.
