Bryson and Tallon's younger sister have always had a lingering eye for each other but the fact it was his best friends little sister and not to mention the age difference kept him at bay. He moved on, got married and has a little girl. His wife has passed away and he struggles with that in more ways then one and is in a groove raising his daughter.

He saw a darkness in her that although was not as bleak as his own, it was there. Noah is a man in control, he needs it to be sure that he can remain calm.

Everything he wants is within his reach, but all of it could be taken away in a moment.

Kennedy L Mitchell is an automatic buy for me. I honestly haven’t read a single book by her that hasn’t warranted a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating. The stories are always exceptional and not just the love story. The mysteries keep me guessing too. This book was no different. I love when we play drinking games,” she announces, getting close to me, and I have to squat down in the water to make sure she doesn’t see my boner because there are no words in the dictionary that can justify getting a hard-on for your best friend. The sisters reminded me so much of me & my sister and I loved that connection between them. Ace was positively HOT and I loved every interaction we read with him. Their connection & attraction was undeniable! I loved their hilarious banter and the spicy scenes were sooooo good. Shelby was a strong, lovable female lead and I enjoyed her personality. I look at you and my whole body burns.I want you naked.I want you screaming.I want to see pleasure make your eyes flash even brighter."

Reviews

Too late?' She senses his hesitation then and musters the mental energy to grasp his presence, to tease out the truth before he withdraws, 'Before it's too late for what, Ren?' Teddy and Scott have already decided everything but the brothers both want them not to worry about expenses, which is a great sentiment. But, both brothers are trying to out do each other. Forgetting this is not their wedding it’s their siblings. So, remember it’s not a contest of junks to see who's is the longest.

I really like how the author crafted this story and brought all the elements, I described above, together. That’s not easy to do. I give huge props to another fantastic book in this series!!! I highly recommend the entire series. The characters are easy to connect with them emotionally.The pacing is fast! The love scenes are passionate and actually moves the story along... The story itself was well plotted and turns to keep your attention!Noah is there for her. But will he be able to give her all she needs. Noah This third book in the series is about Noah and Claire. They met in the second book during the height of Skye and Trace's....drama. Claire had a horrible past. And she's been literally running from it every since. Noah has the same past as Trace, except he had a fatal drama go down that was different than Claire's but somewhat ties them to one another of sorts. Noah has spent his time sleeping only with woman after woman and never caring about any of them, but immediately he knows Claire is different. Claire feels the same about Noah, but knows he's dangerous and she's done dangerous before and is still trying to get away from it. I liked it and read it in one go. It was a fast paced story and the blurb sounded very interesting. It features three sisters who have started their own wedding planning company and revolves around their life. Ace & Shelby are best friends and it's Shelby's wedding day when she discovers that her fiance is cheating on her with Ace's girlfriend. Both of them didn't see such a huge betrayal coming but one night of drinking together, leads them to take a decision of going on Shelby's pre-booked honeymoon together. When lines blur and they discover some truths, will they act on their attraction and finally see what was meant to be?

Noah York is a man with secrets. The world sees him as a billionaire hotel tycoon, but Noah has a dark and dangerous side. For years, he worked covert military operations before he built his fortune. When it comes to death, Noah is a master. He knows that he should steer clear of Claire, but the white-hot attraction Noah feels for the delicate beauty is instant—and consuming. And before she had even finished the sentence, the man in question sprung into action and bolted to his right, not forward like Rey had been anticipating. She stood in place all of three seconds before she came to her senses and dashed in a diagonal to try and cut him off. But his long legs covered so much ground in so little time that she didn't have a hope to catch him with his head start. She didn't trust herself to Force-hold him with her command of the Force still rusty from disuse. Still, she ignited her lightsaber as she chased after him, angry yet puzzled about why he would come all of this way to run, rather than confront her.Noah is the hero. He is very successful, very rich, very sexy, quite possessive and certainly intense. Noah and Claire had met at the time of her sister’s funeral. He resisted her then but when she comes to one of his hotels asking for his help, there is no way he is able to resist her twice. From the moment Claire walks into his hotel hoping to get a job, he knows he has to have her. He has to protect her at all costs. I will continue to say the Cynthia Eden does romantic suspense so damn well. She has ridiculously hot characters that are strong, intense and mysterious. She also writes her killers with chilling craziness to make you on edge when you read her stories. Before the choice is taken from you.' She sits in stunned silence for a moment, trying to detect duplicity in his words. Was he really as close as he claimed to finding the Resistance base? In the time it takes to process his words, she feels him retreat from her with a whispered 'Soon...' resonating in the hallows of her mind.
