Aaiden and Jade

This book really put me in my paces. Goodness, there so many turns and emotions. I loved it. I am struggling to not add spoilers because every chapter had something unexpected. I loved seeing Jade's friendships and his inner circle grow. I enjoyed seeing Jade in action. There was no shying away from a fight. Lastly seeing him interact with his mother and her never ending goal to go to art school was hilarious. Also the bonus scenes were hilarious, I love Caleb

Jade Deserves the World

Dee’s Grade: A+ Jade’s book was everything I needed it to be. Aaiden was even better than I thought. He was high handed as we knew but he was in love. I wish we could have gotten his POV a few times in the book but it’s single POV until the epilogue like most of the other books in the series. I love my Jade getting his HEA finally.

Well-written, action-packed, ultimate love

What a powerfully, well-written story, full of action and emotion! We've seen Jade and Aaiden throughout the series, but in this book, their characters come alive with depth and detail. Jade is the real star, with a skilled, determined survivor mentality that shows this is no weak, submissive omega. It was great to see these two men get their HEA and make the world a better place, as well! Very enjoyable!

What an epic ending!

Sophie shows us a completely different side of the Jade we saw in earlier books. Seeing the effects of his kidnapping is heartbreaking. However, his growth in this book and how he comes back into himself is beautiful! Don't forget to read the bonus epilog!
