Sep 05, 2015 Samantha rated it it was amazing · review of another edition

I give the conclusion of Jonas and Lily's story a solid and darkly erotic 5 stars. Just as with the first two novels, Lily and Jonas burn up the sheets, walls, and whatever surface they choose to use to physically become part of one another. The story wraps up everything neatly and beautifully and I was not disappointed.

I normally start off raving about how much I loved the male lead but I have to say I loved his son just as much. Paul is Jonas's teenage son who is a music protege attending Jul ...more

I waited so long and impatiently for the conclusion to this poignant story. Lily is a complex character, flawed and battered but so strong despite her fears. And Jonas is that kind of alpha male that you want to cave in to the demands of love.

I find myself falling into the cocoon of the relationship these characters have and forgetting everything else. They fight their own patterns in life, their mistakes and mistrust, to find their own rhythm to fit to each other. I liked the fact that Lily is I waited so long and impatiently for the conclusion to this poignant story. Lily is a complex character, flawed and battered but so strong despite her fears. And Jonas is that kind of alpha male that you want to cave in to the demands of love.

I find myself falling into the cocoon of the relationship these characters have and forgetting everything else. They fight their own patterns in life, their mistakes and mistrust, to find their own rhythm to fit to each other. I liked the fact that Lily is facing her feelings even when they terrify her. It was also beautiful to watch all the care and kindness Jonas bestows on her because he can't deny his feelings even when he hides them.

There are tender moments of love and intimacy, of understanding and need, but also tense scenes of control, deceit and ultimatums. The relationship between them goes through many phases and all are realistically portrayed. And the physical intimacy keeps its erotic and sweet quality.

I noticed how detailed the description is about everything, even every little action. That might slow the pace a bit, but it didn't deter me from getting absorbed in every nuance of their learning to be together.

I also enjoyed how Lily tries to overcome her emotional dependence from Jonas. She loves him and wants him to love her as wholeheartedly, yet she craves to be on her own, capable of fighting her battles against his exes, her insecurities, even Declan who scarred her with so much derision and abuse. And Jonas has also enemies and obstacles that added a lot of drama to the plot as well as a bridge to strengthen their bond.

One of my favourite scenes involved Star Wars, rosewater custard, and warm feelings. Quickly followed by a couple of intimate scenes that were absolutely steamy!

Of course, another asset of the novel is how much Lily grows as a character. She may be fragile, but she's also full of love and willing to break free from her demons. It's impossible not to fall in love with Jonas, though. Domineering, yet he couldn't care more for his woman. Beyong the pretty feelings between them, there is also plenty of surprises and drama to keep the reader occupied until the next burst of passion that makes the pages tremble.

I think this final part was longer than the other two. As it is, it covers all the issues left hanging in the previous part from Declan's abuse to Melisssa's stalking and, above all, the intense and profoundly romantic relationship between Jonas and Lily.

This is a story of hope, love, renewal, and all the sadness and beauty of it I will take with me.

Favourite quotes:
Is it wrong to love how much you want to be with me?
I wanted to keep the happiness on his face forever.

HEART MELTING ENDING TO A GREAT SERIES

This was my favorite of the 3 books in this series. The first book drew me in, hook, line, and sinker, the second book tore my heart out as Lily went through so much sadness and stress on her own, but this third book was great! Jonas stepped up to the plate and showed he was the one for her, Lily already knew he was the one for her, and they worked through everything together. Jonas, too, grew a lot in opening up to his feelings for Lily and trusting her. Ma ...more

There’s still some uncertainty with Jonas and Lily. Lily needs to heal from all the pain and manipulation that Declan has done to her. She is becoming sick and isn’t eating and avoiding anyone that loves her to keep them save. Jonas and Dani want to help her and Ian and Mary too, but she shut the door on them and won’t them them know. Until Jonas has had enough and comes in and takes over. They go to the doctor and see how bad it is. She’s weak and lonely but slowly she sees she isn’t alone and ...more

Everything is right with Lily’s world

Ahhh, the final chapters in a beautiful story! All the pieces and people come together but not without a little drama and a lot of love. I so like a story that finds a peace at its end and a love that is shared and will continue to be shared! The reader is allowed to get into Lily’s mind and her heart and watch as she rids herself of her fears and doubts. Love is victorious but you need to work for it, earn it, and believe in it... Lily became a Tiger!

I loved all 3 books. I could not stop reading. I had a rough time getting though book2. I myself am going g through a rough time with a relationship of 26 years. Which is now over. I know it is fiction but it spoke to my heart. Maybe there is still hope. This trilogy is a wonderful read. Love,hope and promises

Review from Jeannie Zelos book reviews

Genre: Romance, Erotica

I loved the first two parts but...I read a lot, and when it came to starting this once again I needed to go back and have a quick refresh. That’s always frustrating in a way, I really want to get onto the new stuff but know I need to pick up where it stopped. I really enjoy these reads best when I can go through the whole trio back to back, but sadly there wasn’t time – and I was too impatient anyway!

So having found where the story ended ( with the wonderful, awful, be-itch Melissa being her best) I soon got drawn back into the story. Its a kind of stalemate for a long while – Lily loves Jonas and wants more than just being a companion, Jonas won’t bend, Companion is all he can offer. It’s what broke them last time. She’s so ill though he’s shocked, and she needs his help. She’s struggled alone and now has to give in and accept help from wherever it comes. Jonas moves her in with him temporarily, takes over on the Declan issue, and wants her to just concentrate on getting well. In her attempts to stop feeling, to forget she became so ill that she was in danger of dying if she continued not eating properly and exercising to extremes...its not what she intended, and she hadn’t realised she was so ill. It scares them both so they take a break from the issues separating them and work to get her well.
Melissa though – that girl’s not going down without a fight – a nasty, dirty, no holds barred one. Oh goody ;- ) I love her sort of character in a story. True to form she starts up on the offensive, working at Lily’s weak points, her background and image, her lack of sexual experience, the length of time Jonas and Melissa have known each other....it’s really difficult for Lily as she knows much of what Melissa says is true, and she’s clever, she only gets to Lily when she’s alone.
Jonas son Paul, he’s a great kid and added some terrific levity to scenes. He also provided a bridge for the truth to come out. Dani too – she’s a real gem, and so caring. She’s happy with her new man, but wants Jonas to be happy and genuinely likes Lily and wants to help. Its easy to think that's a cover, that she’s hiding something, that maybe she’s got ulterior motives but she hasn’t. There’s few people like her in the real world and that's a shame. I think it’s quite hard to create characters like her that feel real, that don’t seem too contrived but Amelie has done it here and everyone should have a friend like Dani.
Jonas is his usual ultra controlling self, but events can't always be controlled, he can’t always direct what happens and that frustrates him. Things look like they’re going well for a short while and then something happens and its all gone again, he’s lost control and struggles. He’s so scared when he hears what the doctor says about Lily, how close to dying she came, and yet he can’t seem to admit even to himself that what he feels for her is love. He’s given up on that, won’t allow himself to go there, even though he lost her before because of it. Can they get through his mental barrier, will Lily stay if he can’t or will it be the end this time?

As well as the Love issue of course there’s the Declan issue, and all that encompasses. He’s manipulative, and even though Jonas and his team are involved now he’s still got some nasty, dirty tricks up his sleeve...what’s going to happen next there and will that be the breaking point?
Its another sexy, sensual and riveting story. As ever the sex scenes fit the story. I wrote in a review recently of another popular trilogy that there the sex overtook the story. the answer to everything was Have Sex...it got Boring, even though the scenes were well written it became repetitive and I kept flicking past pages and pages of it.. Thankfully Amelie has stayed out of that trap. I want a story where its the plots that count, the events that happen to the characters, which make up the bulk of the book, not the sex, and that’s what’s delivered here.
I’m intrigued too by Ian and Mary, and feel there’s a book in the making there maybe?
If you want a romance that’s seductive and sensual and yet still has a solid and realistic storyline this is one for you. I loved it, read through in one go and look forward to when I can find time to read all three books back to back.

Stars: Five, a fabulous and satisfying finish.

Lily Salome is an only child, pampered but dearly loved by her parents. They teach her self value and honesty but most of all, they teach her about unconditional love. Tragically, her parents are killed in a car accident, leaving her an orphan with no one but her best friend Mary and her boyfriend Declan.

The conclusion of the Tiger Lily series answers all the questions from book two.

Lily finally gains confidence in her relationship with Jonas, and that in turn gives her the strength to confront her past issues in her abusive relationship with Declan. She also seems to have a better base of healthy self-esteem and hopefully that will only increase. It just goes to show what being loved will really do for a person.
