"I've really fallen for him. Six Months ago, I wanted a one-night stand - to have a little fun after dedicating my years to my career. Instead.....I get him."

As I stare at him this morning just like every morning for the past few months, I tell myself I am not dreaming, he's not a fantasy, he is real. My REAL. ~ Brooke

When things start to become the norm and life is treating them well, a shake up occurs where Brooke was at a near lose of losing something precious, which Remy has to make the inevitable decision, for them to be apart for a long period of time. This literally broke my heart. This showed a dark side to Brooke which was filled with doubt during a time that she could only think too much. Thinking of Remy's previous bad indiscretions and questions can she trust him whilst she is away.

As time passes, things unravel with Brooke's family. Secrets are revealed with betrayal from loved ones. Then, when time was up for Brooke & Remy to be reunited, it was beautifully written how it was captured to feel the emotion when these two were brought back together. As they both couldn't function without the other during the time apart, they were now complete as one.

I thoroughly enjoyed Riley & Pete bringing more to the this book. They told some history behind what happened in Remy's past but also help protect Brooke from the evil of the Scorpion and others.

“You,” he says his voice terse and commanding… “are going to love me until I die. I’m going to make you love me even if it hurts, and when it hurts, I’m going to make it better.”

As one moment later in the book, we are met with Remy falling into a dark period after the return of his parents. After a lengthy period of time, Remy admits himself to treatment to remove himself from this darkside. To read through this part of the story from Brooke's point of view was gut-wrenching emotional. To be with the one person you love and to not be able to help in any possible way, but be by his side it would be hard. To have this treatment to overcome the dark moment, I was relieved that he bounces back. From his touch to licking and smelling her, Brooke knew her lion was back. Though this time also, Brooke slowly help Remy to return to his full self.

"Look at you", I say lovingly in his ear. I lick the back of his ear softly, like he does to me, running my hands down the length of him, petting him like he pets me. " I love, adore, cherish, need, and want you like I never thought possible to love and adore and cherish and need and want another human being or anything in this world," I whisper. He growls softly as if in gratitude.

Overall we are met with another heart wrenching, in depth emotional, jaw dropping love for these two. From their sex scenes (HOT), to emotional rollercoaster of evil, from Remy's past with his parents to his opponent, I was longing and so happy, were the story has left us for now.

Hats off to Katy Evans for another heart wrenching novel about Remy & Brooke's love story. I thoroughly enjoyed. I cannot wait with such excitement, to read Remy, which is in his point of view. This picks up from where Mine has left us. ...more

I enjoyed how the love between Remington and Brooke matured. What they have is highly emotion, possessive, and consuming. The love scenes are steamy but at times I glossed over them. Overall recommended read.
