** spoiler alert ** Tiffany Reisz is going to be an auto-buy author for me at this point. I don't know why I haven't read more of her books before, but wow, I love her writing style and characters. Before this one, I had only read her "men at work" series but I immediately bought the other two books in this series to devour! Now let's get down to the nitty-gritty! (Warning, there are spoilers below so proceed with caution!) What I loved: -Arthur and Regan were made for each other in my mind. Regan needs someone she can feel safe and protected with and Arthur needs someone to protect. They fulfill each other's sexual and emotional needs so beautifully and I loved the development that their relationship went through from where they started to where they ended! -Arthur and Regan meet through Arthur offering his body to her for 10 nights in exchange for bailing his brother out of the debt he has wracked up at the hotel (and to get back the family's prized painting). I loved how they met and Regan's immediate understanding of just what Arthur needed in bed, even if she originally began to do it for revenge. -Arthur's ability to fully and completely trust Regan was so hot and beautiful!! -The paranormal aspect of the ghost of Malcolm was so unexpected (I haven't read the first two books in the series, though I'm going to as soon as I finish writing this!) and I loved it! This idea of a dead relative interfering in the life of his future relatives was so fun! -Regan and her ability to overcome her trauma from her past marriage was so inspiring and I loved how she left for months to Paris to rediscover herself! And I loved how Arthur eventually went to go find her after being gone for so long! So romantic, I was melting! What I didn't love: -I'm going to be honest, there was only one thing that I didn't like and is the reason it's 4 stars instead of 5 and it feels petty, but I honestly didn't see the point of it and it immediately brought me out of the story. Arthur and Regan are second cousins? Second half cousins? I'm not too sure how exactly they're related but the shock of it tainted the story for me, didn't really add anything substantial, and took away from the growth of Regan and what she did to be able to get to where she was (from poor to part of high society). It felt like it didn't work and after the revelation, it was just in the back of my mind for the rest of the book so for that reason, I had to dock it a star. conclusions: READ THIS BOOK!! Or don't, I can't control what you do or don't read, but I loved and adored both Arthur and Regan and cannot wait to dig into the previous books in this series since I haven't yet read them! (I also am going to be binging all of Tiffany's books. She's writing what my heart desires and I can't believe I haven't read more of her books because they're just what I love!) *I received this ARC through NetGalley and voluntarily read this book. my thoughts and opinions are my own. Thank you, NetGalley and 8th Circle Press for giving me the chance to read an advanced copy!*
3.5! Sadly not as good as the first two books
