Hmmm ... Gabriel :) I wanted to reread those as well but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. I will have to 'do' Gabriel's latest right after new Joey W Hill book which comes out on Tuesday as well. Anything Joey takes precedence ...

And as far as reviews go, I usually talk about my feelings about the book vs the actual book in most of my reviews so there are really rarely any spoilers! LOL!
When you say 60% what part? I love talking books. I'll read this once I'm finished work. Later guys.

I luuuuuve accommodating Nick.... in all books. completely OUT OF HIS element... He he.. Book 3:
"It did take him some time because he’d never been to the kitchen of his London house. He knew it was on the lower level, but after taking two wrong turns and ending up first in the wine cellar and next in what looked to be the furnace room, he backtracked to the base of the stairs and shouted for Quinn."
Sue, I literally laughed out loud at this [while he was on phone with his sister and she is giving him her advice on how to handle Kate] in Book 3 about 12% in (view spoiler) LMAO!

I heart him so much! No one else compares!!!!!!
I thought I show my fellow buddy readers what myself, Ms. Johnson and her very bright granddaughter have been working on for the series. This is the promo GIF so it contains stock art. Sorry no Gandy, but I think Nick is very hot..!!! what say you?
Stunning, Sue!!! Although DG is the ultimate Nick [to me], the GIF is ROCKING!

You mean because it wasn't copyrighted by anyone?

Joanna- yes Hong Kong......where are you in book 1?
Hi Irene, SueBee, Wendy, and Allison......hope y'all are enjoying book 3!!

Creative genius is all I can say SueBee!!!
Guess who's crashing your BR? Meeeeee! LOLFinally starting book 1 tonight :) So I'll be taking up the rear once again
Lkay, you say that like it's a bad thing ... ;) LOL!
LMAO! Good point, Irene. Good.Point. hahaha
Thanks ladies!Irene most of the photos of DG that we found currently for sale had restrictions on them as in only to be used for editorial... so we did not have enough to make author's promo GIF.
Welcome Lana!
Book 3 is a roller coaster...
Hey Y'all I have a quick question. Will the 3rd book be available in the US next week? I don't want to start reading them if I have to wait months in between books. When I started waiting on this series it looked like they would be coming out in the UK sooner than the US. Thanks:)
waving hi to everyone... yes waving over here... finished with the cooking eating and cleaning... back to Dominic Knight and alll that is him....Lana welcome and you are bringing up the rear??? hmmmm

However, you will be able to buy paperback of this book on Amazon UK if you want to read the finale sooner.
Thanks for answering my question so quickly. Have you bought paperbacks from the UK? Can we do that thru Amazon or do you know of another site we can purchase from ?
Yes, you can purchase paperbacks from Amazon UK and they'll ship them worldwide.
Hi guys, Raven is pure Paranormal not erotica. It's what SR wants to write. It's set in Florence with a dark backdrop but also with links to GI series.
I think he wants a true departure from Steamy fiction but is hoping not to lose all his readership. It will be a hard transition for him but those of us who love his writing will stick with him. I love PRN so I'm not stressed. I do understand how you feel though Sue. Big hugs.
Forget buying it from Amazon the post kills you. Buy it from Book Depository.co.uk
And save yourself a packet.
Hi Dawn - check you PM for some instructions...As for paperbacks... SQ might be onto something. I paid $20-ish for paperback to US regular shipping, and $50 for express to US...
Morning, all. Yay!! Lkay... you're joining in.... I won't be on my own at the back, well for a short time anywaySueBee, love the Gif you've been working on. Nick makes a gorgeous Dom, imo
And SueBee with the NG reviews, I don't know what is right and wrong but with one I have read, that is releases a little later, I will put my feedback on when I have it ready for GR's (if that makes sense) If that is closer to the deadline and Ng have to wait, then so be it, imo. If I have it ready and waiting and I am super organised then I would put it on. That's the way I see it

Sue, I know you're new to NG. NG isn't a "posting" site. Nobody goes in and can see your review (but the publisher). It's basically your way to "email" the publisher a link to your review or a copy of review. Nothing is publicly accessible on NetGalley. It's just a communication engine between the reviewer and publishers. That's why it doesn't matter when feedback is given there. They just don't want you to PUBLISH reviews (on AMZ or GR) prior to being close to date of release.
I am about 70% into book 3 and loving it. My favorite thing about this trilogy (besides Nick, of course!) is his relantionship with Max and his sister. I just love it when he has conversations with both.
Flipping love the banter between these two ... I also LOVE that the author is consistent with the characters personalities ... 20% book two !! ❤️❤️

Just finished book 2. I can say this now... I honestly haven't "felt it" with either character until the happenings at the end of this book. Never once, until now, did I get a flutter that this was a love story. Last night I almost gave up. I think it's the third person POV that hinders my ability to FEEL it. That ending... Loved it. I guess I'm a romantic at heart and here is where it starts for me.

It feels a bit mechanical but I'll keep going, I need to read quicker!! xxx
That's a bummer, J and Allison. See, I prefer third person narrative, especially when it comes to erotic novels (unless, of course, they are CD's novels). But, as they say, different strokes for different folks. Hopefully you'll enjoy the last book, Allison, and I hope it picks up for you, J.

I stayed up and finished and reviewed. I LOOOVE the direction she took plot and the growth I saw in Nick and event the A-hole he becomes when He does NOT get his way.

Sorry J and A! I am open for both narrative!

Just FYI ladies... end of book 3 will give you a snippet of who her next book is about and we are treated to another of her trademark heroes: If Nick is the mature jaded playboy MAN alpha.. then this hero will be the jaded playboy BOY alpha.. and maybe even a bad, bad boy... the book is still being written. I couldn't sleep last night book 3 and snippet was THAT good!!!
Sue, that Epilogue almost gave me a heart attack - I NEED that book NOW!!!

Glad to hear you are all loving it (even if it's been a struggle for some). Honest reviews are important. Not every book is written for everyone. For me, I loved it. Now for our inked boy.
Book 1 60% (view spoiler) Some parts I love, some not so much??? I don't want to know what the shop girls thinking, lol, mini rant over. I think I like.... it's a slow burn for me, I want to be completely head over heals in love with this book and I'm not yet but I feel I could be... That's where I'm at, at the moment. x
Don't be fooled by the calm before the storm Joanna!!
Favorite quote book 1:“He shouldn’t even be thinking about dragging her into his wayward world of carnal games. He should give her a free pass. Or maybe just give her the illusion of a free pass. Cold-blooded manipulation or decency? What would it be?”
