I really do like this book. More than I expect. It is a very interesting to see both of the main characters are Doms. Usually the hero is the Dom and the heroine is the sub. It is very refreshing that Miss Force put a bit twist on her story. Miss Force slowly becoming my new favorite author. Her writing is so good. The theme is simple but with that sweet twist.
In this book, Sebastian is not just a tough alpha male hero, but he is also vulnerable. He is not afraid to show his feeling to Marlowe. ...more

For now at least, this is the last book (#8) in the Quantum BDSM Series. What a great cast of characters Marie Force created, along with stories that keep you entertained (and maybe made you blush and drop your jaw) to say the least -- but much more in stories that touch your heart in so many emotional ways. Readers will have a little wait for this one but it will be worth it. (Release Date: October 22, 2019)

I adored Famous but at the point where other characters spoke up, I perceived it as a distraction and not a welcomed "look at how all of them are getting their own closures in this book" interlude.
Were they just epilogues or bonus scenes, I'd give the book five stars without any doubts. This way, I just have to knock one down, saying, "It was a great ending to an amazing series. I'm gonna miss these characters very, very much."

5 Star Review of Famous (Quantum #8) by Marie Force
Have you ever anticipated a book so much, but when it hit your device you didn’t want to start it? That was my predicament when Famous arrived. I have been waiting for Marlowe Sloane’s book ever since she was introduced and knowing that this is the last book in the Quantum series it really was bittersweet.
I was riveted from the first chapter to the last and read it in almost one sitting as I simply couldn’t put it down. Marlowe’s story is a frie ...more

The final book in the Quantum series, this is a friends-to-lovers romance that is dripping with feels and sexual tension. It’s the long-awaited story for movie-star, Marlowe Sloane, one of the Hollywood heavyweights that make up the core of this series, a part of the Quantum production group that she formed with her best friends, and part owner of the club that they started to meet their secretive BDSM needs.

A solid ending to a great series!
Marlowe's story was so much fun to read! The beginning was absolutely heartbreaking--OMG, reading about what happened to her made me hurt--but watching her rise above it, own it, and find her own HEA was just wonderful. It was all I could do not to stand up and cheer when she had her press conference toward the end, and by the time we got to the epilogue? I have no words :)

Marie Force has an amazing ability to build funny, thoughtful, caring, groups of family and fiends in her series and this one is no different! I laughed, I cried and I swooned at many of the conversations, twists and turns this story took Ms Force manages to include very important social messages in this book as well as a wonderful long term friends to lovers story for Marlowe and Sebastian, a very fitting end to another great series!

5+ stars!
What an incredible way to end this series!! After reading the first 7 books, it becomes hard to top them. Hayden (along with Addie) has been my favorite H so far (that being said I freaking loved them all!). But holy freakin’ cow, I’ve seen Sebastian throughout this entire series but clearly... I didn’t actually SEE him because this book just made him my new top fav H!!

The final book in the Quantum series and for me Marie Force left the best for last but in all honesty I have said that about each book in this series because each book has got better than the last, it grew as we learnt more about this group of Hollywood A listers and their sometimes unorthodox life style. Marlowe Sloane’s story was the one I have been waiting for and it was everything I expected and more and knowing this was going to be the last book in the series for me it was the perfect story

"This love story is far from all roses 🌹 but man is the happy worth the journey"
Famous by Marie Force is final book in her New York Times bestselling Quantum Series. Though this book could be read standalone I highly recommend reading the Quantum Series in order because...well.... it is a great series!

I don’t want Quantum to end, but this was perfect
The minute Marlowe walked onto the page 8 books ago I was really curious about where Marie Force was taking her character. I started Quantum a few books in, so I knew that eventually all the main players were supposed to get a book of their own, but Mo was the only female in a group of strong, hardheaded men, and she always held her own.
Then all the core Quantum guys got their books, and throughout we saw Hayden’s bestie from growing up, Sebastia ...more

This is the final book in this series and I absolutely loved it. Marie brought it with this read.
This is a BDSM series and technically you can read it as a standalone. This is one of my FAVORITE tropes, friends to lovers!
This is Marlowe's story and it was amazing. This was a twisted and thrilling reads that had hurt and had healing. I loved every word of it. Marlowe makes a huge mistake in bringing her lover into the fold and when things go wrong the person you don't see coming is who ends up b ...more

Not What I was hoping for.
Wasn’t sure what to think going in. After reading the first chapter and seeing what happened to Marlowe I didn’t think it’d move so quickly as it did.
I’ve been a huge fan of this series and I liked this read when I thought I’d love it.
I was hoping for more and felt in some way it appeared rushed. You’d think after this experience you’d be wary of jumping into another relationship so quickly but having watched Marlowe’s character grow in each book I understood her and ...more

Finally Marlowe's story is hear and what an absolutely amazing emotional roller-coaster it was to read and also an absolute pleasure...
It doesn't surprise me when Marlowe won't listen t her friends regarding Rafe the super douche but omg the outcome from that is totally terrifying but i also couldn't look away from the pages I had to keep reading I mean come on I'm totally invested in this series and Marlowe's story is the last one so i just know its going to be terrifyingly amazing and it was a ...more

As they say, "All great things have to come to an end" and that unfortunately is the Quantum series. This is one of those series that you can re-read over and over, again and again, I have done just that many times. This final book in the series was Marlowe's story and oh was it a story! This book had me gasping for breath and devastated within the first few chapters but just as quickly I was as utterly captivated and enamored with this scorching sexy page turner. I highly recommend this book...

Omg I hope than isn’t the end of the Quantum Series.... I loved these books so much I couldn’t put them down. I’m so glad the last book was Marlowe and Sebastian, loved it so much, although not the ‘he who shall not be named’ I’m hoping there’s going to be another book where we find out what happens to ‘him’.

I love all The Quantum Series. I think Famous was my favorite. I cry and laughed so much. Thank you Marie Force for another amazing story and I do hope that you will give us one story about all the characters.💜💜💙💚💜💛
“Sebastian.” I look into the lovely green eyes that are looking at me with affection and humor and love, so much love. “I’m in love with you. I think perhaps I have been for as long as I’ve known you.” “You… I… Really?” My voice breaks on that last word, the way it did when I was twe ...more

For a final book in a series, Marie Force hit it out of the park! It was fantastic diving again into the magical world of Quantum. In the past, as I read the other books, I laughed, cried and rejoiced in the HEA of the other partners. Now, in this one, we get to read about Marlowe’s love story. I was thrilled to see who is her love interest but was sworn to secrecy, so you will have to read the book to find out.

The final book in the series is about Marlowe Sloane, one of the main principals of Quantum. We have waited a long time to get Marlowe's story and Ms. Force did not disappoint. We all have hope that Ms. Force will somehow in the future continue the series or at least give us updates via novellas or short stories of what is happening with everyone in the Quantum family.

The Quantum Series is hands-down one of my favorite series. I have been reading these books for years, and as sad as I am to see it all come to a close, I could not have asked for more from this book and this entire series! Marlowe’s story was everything I needed. It was thrilling, it was steamy, it kept me on the edge through it all, and I loved every single word of it! This book was perfection. It was exceptionally written, it consumed me from the first word until the very last, and it gave me

This the final book in the Quantum series which finally gives us Marlowe Sloane's long-awaited story and boy does Marie Force knock it out of the park!!! It was everything I expected and so MUCH MORE and Marie gave us the perfect story not only for Marlowe but all of our beloved Quantum team.

Marlowe's story begins with a bad decision that changes the course of her life. She has it all, all except for love, love like her male partners at Quantum have found. She isn't going to find it in Rafe, her latest boyfriend. So the story begins of friendship and revenge. I was not surprised who Marlowe ends up with in the end. She is with the person she deserves but she has to work hard to make him see that. They are too dominants finding their way through a relationship when his past comes bac

Marlowe’s story brings the Quantum series to an end, and what an ending it is. Marlowe has been this glam and fierce female in all the books and now we see that loyalty and fierceness in several new ways. Her love life takes a sudden turn and we see the ramifications of that play out for a while. Through all of the actions and hurdles Marlowe and her love interest experience her group of friends/family are all there. The brothers and friends are fierce in their love and protection of her which i

I have a small confession to make.... as a long time a Marie Force reader I wasn’t sure how I felt when she launched the Quantum series. Now, 8 books later, I am so glad we got to know this group of people. The 4.5 star rating is a much for the series as it is Famous because while this is technically a stand alone, I think a reader would be doing themselves a disservice to not read the series in order.

“I wish I had the right to brush the strand of red hair back from her face, but I don’t have the right to touch her. Not that way. Not any way.
It takes everything I have to keep my hands to myself when all I want to do is touch her, hold her and assure her that I’ll always be here for her.”
