5 "Don't get her pregnant" Stars

Wow. Just wow. I've said it so many times you are probably tired of reading it, but fffuuuuuuccccckkkkkkkk. JA Huss is beyond freaking brilliant. I can't even begin to describe the ride i just went on, but I'll see what I can do. Because really? It's #FuckingFive and I've been waiting for him since he made his appearance in Guns. We knew he'd be amazing as soon as he took his Princess's hand and told Aunt Ronnie that he would take it from there.

Because he did.

I did a quick listen of this fantastic book over the weekend while on a road trip with my SIL.

It was the perfect way to pass the time in the car. I mean, who better to spend your afternoon with than Five Motherfucking Aston?

No one (unless it's Spencer Shrike, but that's not the point here).

And Five's love for Rory is the sweetest love, it's the purest love, it's the love that surpasses time.

I think I enjoyed this book more on audio. There's just something about hearing these characters come t ...more

I've been waiting for this one. Probably expected too much. From other books, I pictured Five as a brilliant bad ass, but he wasn't really. The relationship with Rory was sort of mushy with a lot of raw sex. They have known each other since they were toddlers and declared their everlasting love when they were kids, so we had flashbacks instead of an actual building up of a relationship. For me, that's never as much fun. It's okay. But not as good as others in this long series. ...more

Fans of J.A. Huss have been waiting to read about Five and his Princess since they were introduced so long ago. I mean it’s f*cking Five and his Princess! And boy did she not disappoint. In her style, she gave us their story and twisted our hearts at the same time!

Five Aston and Rory Shrike have been destined to be together for as long as either can remember. They were childhood friends that were inseparable. They built their future together in their minds. How could they not ever be, right? Bu Fans of J.A. Huss have been waiting to read about Five and his Princess since they were introduced so long ago. I mean it’s f*cking Five and his Princess! And boy did she not disappoint. In her style, she gave us their story and twisted our hearts at the same time!

Five Aston and Rory Shrike have been destined to be together for as long as either can remember. They were childhood friends that were inseparable. They built their future together in their minds. How could they not ever be, right? But there was so much they did not know when they were young. Then life interfered, as is often does. Five left for college at 15 and Rory stayed behind.

Now, after being apart for six years, they come to realize they may never really be. So much stands in their way. He made a choice a long time ago that he now must honor, so he leaves, again. Left with no other choice, Rory moved on. What choice did she have? Oh my heart. I think I actually heard it shatter.

But again, its F*cking Five and his Princess. Their love story is meant to be, right? But what is the cost? The choices Five has made are finally catching up to him. What does he do? All he wants is his Princess. The one he promised to love and always protect. I loved Five. He was a force to be reckon with, as we always expected him to be, he was strong, possessive and just plain amazing. But his one vulnerability was always Rory, his Princess.

Rory Shrike was Ron the Bomb’s daughter through and through. Tough as nails, determined and strong. I loved her. Absolutely loved her. She was fierce, feisty and beautiful, but she is also smart. So very smart. She has always loved Five. Waited for him all this time, only to realize what may never be. But nothing keeps her down for long.

Now Five and Rory have the fight of their lives ahead of them. As secrets are revealed and plans put into action will Five and Rory be able to survive? Their love is what romance stories are made off, but will they have their happily-ever-after as they always dreamed off or it too late for them?

I love J.A. Huss. I cannot say this enough. She is an amazing writer with a twisted mind and I have loved every damn thing she has written. I have devoured everything she has written, but this story, this one consumed me. Five and Rory have an epic love we (her fans) have wanted to see come to life for what seems like forever and she gave us one hell of a story. You will not be disappointed. It was not all hearts and flowers, because, come on, this is J.A. Huss we are talking about. But it is Five and Rory’s story.

Happy reading! ...more

I am one of the lucky ones chosen by Julie to on her advanced readers team. Another great book with twists and plots you just have no idea how she thinks it all up. Princess Rory Shrike and Five are soulmates before they even know what it meant. They are perfect!! And even though there some crazy ass shit happening all around them, they are there for each other every step of the way. Thank you Julie for another great read.

Sigh...Fucking Five! Ok. Loved Five and Rory, but did not enjoy the Princeton Secret Society storyline.

5 Stars for Five

Five was absolute perfection! The characters, the storyline... EVERYTHING about this book lived up to some very high expectations. JA Huss has created a magically romantic fairytale ending for Five and Princess Shrike. This is not your typical romance, but for this family of twisty characters it was utter perfection. I have waited an eternity for this book, and my patience was greatly rewarded. Bravo!
