Yeah, but I thought this might happen. There was no way around it.

Yeah, but I thought this might happen. There was no way around it."
Yeah, me too. :( And it looks like Dom's going to be fine. :)
Sorry, friends, but I still think there could have been many other ways to deal with James and (view spoiler)
"...you're going to have to start calling me Daddy."LMAO
I'm done! :)
Christelle wrote: "Sorry, friends, but I still think there could have been many other ways to deal with James and [spoilers removed]"Yeah, but everything pointed to this for giving Dom some sort of closure without wondering if James would ever get out of jail haunting him.
Simone wrote: "I'm done! :)"Me too :)
Sorry, was looking for "Ecdysiast", LOL !!Freaking good last chapter ;-)
Simone wrote: "Yeah, but everything pointed to this for giving Dom some sort of closure without wondering if James would ever get out of jail haunting him. ..."I agree. And James was too far gone to have agreed to anything reasonable.
Christelle wrote: "Sorry, was looking for "Ecdysiast", LOL !!Freaking good last chapter ;-)"
Yep, I love their get-togethers at the end of the stories! :)
Josy wrote: "Simone wrote: "Yeah, but everything pointed to this for giving Dom some sort of closure without wondering if James would ever get out of jail haunting him. ..."I agree. And James was too far gone..."
Yeah, he wouldn't have let himself getting caught...
I really enjoyed these 2 MCs and having all the guys there and all the banter. That's what worked the best for me :-) But the plot...meh and the way it ends...argh...soooooo bad :-(But this last chapter, hell YES !!! ;-)
Too bad, Karen, is not with us... :( Soooo, thoughts?
I think I'm going with 4 stars here. :)

Thoughts above. And I'm going for 3.5 stars rounded up to 4 because, plot aside, I think that's the one I enjoyed the most (sorry for Royce, Simone :-( But Royce is still a great sexy lurker, LOL) !!!

Yeah well, the plot was still enjoyable, they could have done it way more obvious and there were quite some surprises for me. LOL. But I expected the outcome, so it didn't bother me.
Nope, Royce book was the best for me and I gave it 4.5 stars rounded down, so that's why I'm giving this 4 stars. And it was way better than Dantès Unglued, IMO.
In this series, this is my favorite book. I think I might go with 4 or 4.5 stars. The relationship worked well for me and I liked the MCs.I came to not to expect too much from the plot and I think that's best. Otherwise, I get cranky, lol! It's always too convenient and yes, unrealistic, but it's always an easy, enjoyable read.
Way, way better than Dantés Unglued, that's for sure :-)

Sure, we do :-)

"And I'm really happy for you that the book with your favorite character worked so well for you. In series like that, we all get a favorite character and what's more frustrating when the book about that favorite doesn't go well :-)
I don't think I have a favorite character yet in this series...

Noooooo, wrong answer! LOL

I agree. :) I hope you'll find your favorite. ;-)

Right answer. I know her very well and she writes great review. You don't believe me ? Try it ;-)

If she wouldn't be so lazy lately... LOL.
LMAO : I will let you be the one to let her know about this laziness ;-)And frankly, I am 3 reviews down...no inspiration at all :-(
On that note, it seems we are all around 4 stars (more or less).Any idea who will be next ? Not very obvious, imo : a lot of possibilities....
LOL!! I will keep out of this 'argument' ;)I'm writing down my thoughts now but no way will this be a 'proper' review :)
Christelle wrote: "LMAO : I will let you be the one to let her know about this laziness ;-)And frankly, I am 3 reviews down...no inspiration at all :-("
Trust me, she knows! LOL.
Well, maybe I'll think of something, but not today... ;-) I'll go back to Malcolm and Seong-Jae for now. :)
Josy wrote: "LOL!! I will keep out of this 'argument' ;)I'm writing down my thoughts now but no way will this be a 'proper' review :)"
I don't think mine will be proper, either. Right now I have no clue how to start and that's never a good sign. LOL.
Christelle wrote: "On that note, it seems we are all around 4 stars (more or less).Any idea who will be next ? Not very obvious, imo : a lot of possibilities...."
Absolutely no clue! I still hope they will pair Trent with someone, though. ;-)
Just write what you are thinking :)I'm off to soak in a hot bathtub now, lol!
Thanks for this BR!! It was fun and I enjoyed reading with you :)
Josy wrote: "LOL!! I will keep out of this 'argument' ;)I'm writing down my thoughts now but no way will this be a 'proper' review :)"
I don't do "proper reviews" either as they are more notes for myself for future references...and if it helps other to select, fine by me.
But I try to put down some words for when I want to remember what I think about an author or when I'm looking for a re-read :-)

Yep...Trent needs to be an MC :-)

It was really another fun BR with you! Thank you too, Josy, and enjoy your hot bath. :) I think I would just have to go outside to get hot. LOL.

Yeah well, since I don't do any spoiler (or at least try not to), it doesn't do me any good to remind me about what happened in a book. LOL.

Enjoy your hot bath, Josy !!!!!!!!!!!!
And thanks to you as well. Always fun to have a BR with a book appreciated by all :-)
Next one will be with you, Simone, Karen and TJ Klune : should be a good one :-)
Okay, looks like I have some freetime next weekend, since our BR for A Time To Rise got postponed. I talked to L.J. earlier and oops, she said I'm on her ARC list as a regular, so I'll get the next one soon. :) Then there's no butting out of a review. LOL
Okay ladies,enjoy the rest of your evening! Maybe we'll chat later again, in case Karen will comment here. :)

"I never say what happened in a book, but what I enjoyed. I so don't like when people go to far away and spill the beans without any spoiler...For me, most of the enjoyment comes from discovering the story :-)
Have a great evening as well, Josy and Simone. And good luck for next week, of course.And Simone, let us know if Jamila is back to a good shape tomorrow.
Big hugs to you all, mawh !!!

Sometimes I do appreciate a spoiler, at least if it's something I'd like to know but it's a very thin line when to do it or not. LOL.
But if I know the blurb it's enough for me in general. ;-)

Anyway, I'm used to how GR friends write reviews by now, so I know when to skip part of a review that I know will give too much ;-) And you're not amongst the one I have to skip parts !!!

Thank you, Christelle, will do. :)
