5 Stars!!!

"What?! OMG...that is how you're leaving me??? I have tears.....TEARS!......running down my face!!!! I can't even think right now!!! Please tell me how long I have to wait until I have the next book in my hands?? O.M.G.!!!!! "

Yes! That is the exact text I sent Ada Frost the minute I finished reading this book! Which by the way, was just 5 minutes ago! I can not believe the emotions that are going through me right now. I am smiling, but crying all at the same time! Yes, it is possible! I am so in LOVE with everything about this series. If someone were to ask me what my top 5 series were, this one would be on the list. The reason why I said series vs book, is because every single book in this series seriously captured me and gutted me. I would rate all 3 books more then 5 stars if I could! As I'm sitting here trying to write this review, my heart is beating so hard, I can feel it pounding in my chest. Yes, the ending was a killer, but the whole book just brought every emotion out of me. I got mad, I definitely cried (more than once), I swooned, and there were so many times I laughed and found myself with the biggest, cheesiest smile on my face!

I was captured by this book the moment I started reading it! I was so nervous at first because Will comes off a little intimidating. He first meets Emily one night in a bar and everyone that knows her tried to push him away. However, Will didn't let anyone get in his way when it came to Emily, and he let her know right from the start that he wasn't going to back down. Will and Emily's relationship started off bumpy, but once all the misunderstandings were cleared up, I loved them together! They both have a past full of pain and sorrow, so they told themselves to never fall in love again. With the chemistry between these two, I didn't see that lasting for long!

I loved Will! I loved his personality. The moments that he was around his brothers, Johan and Ryan, were the best! The banter that went on between them, always picking on each other or Ryan always calling Johan and Will pussies for being in love and being afraid of their women was classic! They had me totally cracking up! I also loved when those same brothers had the most heart warming conversations......

"When you find her, the one who completely owns you, it hurts to fucking breathe when you finally realize you'll never...never get to hold her again, see her smile, or hear her laugh."

"I feel like my heartbeats, with the sole purpose of loving her."

Will had a playful side, but he also had a hot, demanding, alpha male inside of him as well when it came to Em.....

"Don't mistake me, Em; I'll make my intentions clear. This thing was a one night stand. It wasn't supposed to go anywhere, but I can't let you go. I intend to keep you. I'm giving you space to accept how we will proceed. But be sure of one thing: no man will ever touch what is mine again. And you are mine. I will allow you space and time, but run and I will chase you, and mark my words, I will catch you."

Not only did I fall in love with Will and Emily's story, I also fell even more in love with the characters from the previous stories. I loved that there was so much more of Lou and Johan. The love that they continue to show, and the bickering they continue to do is perfect. To see Johan happy and remembering all that he had been through, and how now he loves Lou with all that he is, brought tears to my eyes. There's also some of Dominic and Eve, which also had an emotional story as well. Reading about these characters made me want to go back and read Elemental Fear and Surviving Love all over again! Let's not forget little Izzy. What a sweetheart. She is so cute. I loved her relationship with Will. I think the way he was with her was what sealed the deal for me! I'm hoping that in the future, everything works out for the best, and we get more of her in the upcoming books!

Yes, the storyline is different from the previous books from this series, but I loved it just as much. The love, the drama, the sweetness, the laughter, and the tears made it perfect! As for what's next...I NEED IT NOW!!! I can not wait to see what Mrs. Frost is going to be putting me through next! I can already tell it's going to be another emotional read! All I have to say is..... where do I sign up???
