Wow! The ending ... I was not expecting that >.<
May 1, 2013
All I can say is this author, H M Ward, is absolutely killing me with these cliffhangers! Oh my why is this happening again. I was blown away by Sean's confession to Avery at the end. Blown away!! I'm so happy he finally admitted his love for Avery. I've been waiting for so long for him to say I love you, tell her to stop being a call girl, and promise to take care of her financially and emotionally. Finally he does it then confesses what he did to his wife and baby. Oh my oh my! It is going to be torture waiting for the next book! H M Ward you are killing me here! I want to say thank you for letting me read this ARC before the books release I loved loved it!

I actually thought the book was ok, but I wanted to give a warning review here. I just don't see where the author is leading us. This was the 6th installment of the series and I've got the feeling the story is virtually at the same point that it was in the 1st book. 700 pages later, Avery is still whining all day long, wanting and not wanting to be hooker, being resolute about her relationship with Sean and yet, not. She's constantly taking one step forward, two steps backward, and frankly, I'm starting to get bored.

Ok I think I'm about done with this series of book. We're at the 6th "book" and it feels like I just started reading it. It's going nowhere and the story just keeps repeating itself. Last book had a great cliffhanger but this one just pissed me off. I'm not sure I want to keep reading them and I'm not sure I care enough about the ending either. I mean, how many more books are we going to get with the same thing? Avery not wanting to be a hooker but having no "other option", and her loving Sean but not wanting to love him. I think I had about enough.

I THOUGHT MY EYES WILL POP OUT AFTER READING THE ARRANGEMENT 6. I thinks Sean will have some explanations that will with "its not what you think"

This series is so incredibly good!!
It is so angsty, my heart literally hurts!!
Avery has been dealt such a shitty hand with life.
I'm not sure how she keeps going.
Things are not as they seem in this installment.
I'm saying that is the theme for book 6 all around.
We left off at the end of book 5 with Avery walking into Sean's hotel room as Mel is about to leave.
Yes...this is where I was saying I hate this fucking bitch Mel!!!!
I felt the same knife to the heart as Avery!!!
But like I said, the theme is "things are not what they seem"
Avery is not having it.
She runs out and even when Sean grabs her and brings her back to his room, she is not having any of it.
She leaves and takes a train to nowhere, it seems.
Till she ends up at her childhood home.
She calls Marty and he comes and picks her up.
Marty, the "gay" BFF!!
What did I tell you?!!!!
Things are not what they seem!!
I knew it though!
Avery is reeling from this latest development and feels that everyone in her life is a liar.
Things settle down and she's spending time with Sean again.
She's also been seeing another client, Thomas, who is a business associate of Sean's.
He seems to be a very charming and good guy but who knows, looks can be deceiving.
Avery is going to see two clients in one weekend, Sean & Thomas.
She has offered to do whatever Sean wants to do and we know its going to be twisted since he gets off sexually by feeding off a woman's fears!! Sick fuck...but I love you Sean!!! HAHAHA
His walls are crumbling down, and he admits he doesn't want want to share her with another man.
OMG FINALLY!!!
This is me and my happy dance!!
Sean...finally you say what I've been waiting through SIX books to hear.
"I told you there was nothing left to save, that I was screwed up beyond comprehension. I was. There was nothing left worth saving, but then you came along in your crappy car. You fight for every breath you take and you don't back down. I admire that. I admire you, but it's so much more. I was so far gone that I didn't see it, I didn't know that I could feel that way again."
FINALLY!!!
Shit as I read it, I had to pinch myself.
I'm giddy as hell, but all the while with a nagging feeling, shit will go South soon.
Then...BAM, it does! Of course!!!
She had to ask about Amanda's death.
Well I won't believe it.
There's got to be an explanation!!
Roll on book 7!!!! :)

Me aburrió esta mierda.
No pasa nada. Siguen dando círculos y círculos en el mismo sitio.Que si, que no, que si, que no.
Y sé, que haymuchos libros con la misma temática, pero la diferencia con esos libros y ésto, es que aunque sea UNO de los protagonistas, te atrapa y te motiva a seguir con la lectura hasta al final. Pero aquí, es enfermizo, dándome ganas de tirarme los pelos y castigarme de porque seguía con ésto.
Vamos, ¡Voy en el 6, y nada a sido revelado ni sorprendente!. H.M. Ward, no me ha dado ni una mierda más profunda sobre que pasa con Sean, que ni conquista ni cautiva. Y Avery, cero carisma la muchacha, no tiene fuerza, es una indecisa enferma al extremo , Mel, no me agrada, tampoco. Los únicos que queda y destacan son Marty, creo que él fue ese alguien de por qué seguía leyendo, pero como es secundario, no bastó. y la otra, es la srta. Black que pensaba que le pondría más "maldad" al asunto mientras pasara el tiempo, pero no fue así.
Y eso, nada más quiero decir de ésto.

Avery continues to struggle with being a call girl. She is not cut out to be detached from her feelings & it takes that kind of tough skinned person to make it in this business. Avery is faced with having to question the loyalty of those closest to her. She is lost again. She wants to be close to Sean but all he does over & over again is push her away.

well indeed this book is so angsty, like riding a roller-coaster. going to high and literally threw up to the bottom with full speed
October 6, 2013
I said I wasn't going to read these, because I thought it was ridiculous of Ms. Ward to demand 2.99 for an installment (which apparently she is drawing out to capitalize on as much money as she can- since there are now 10 installments). at 2.99 a pop, that means that for $29.99 you have read all ten installments (with apparently more to come)- legit best selling authors don't even get that much for honest Hard-Cover books let alone E-Books, let alone 20,000 word installments! Ive stopped at six because I realized I would much rather spend sixteen dollars reading either a handful of decent books or two books from good authors than be swindled out of reading anymore of these.
Yes, her story idea is a good one, and her writing is decent (grammatical errors, plot holes and lack of attention to detail not-withstanding). However, I won't tolerate an author who draws out these installments for the sake of financial gain, and in doing so is lifting story lines from other authors and movies just so that she can pad these stories and fill in the holes. I can tell what books and/or movies Ms. Ward has been watching or reading during each of these installments. Did you think no one would notice that you have essentially lifted scenes from Pretty Woman and inserted them into this book? Escargot and a red dress? Really?
A gross disappointment. If I had spent even $5.99 on the full novel (not these ridiculous installments) and I would have noticed the story similarities I probably would have looked the other way- however, it is egregiousness in its highest form to continue to pillage from your dedicated readership by serving them repurposed plots that don't even belong to you.

Good lord after the heart dropping cliffhanger of the last book you bet your a** I was ready for this bad boy. I feel for Avery (been saying that a lot in this series but it's true she's a lovable character) "nothing they say will fix this. There's an ax in my chest and I'm bleeding out." Ugh Sean no why the hell would she want to wait for you, you a**hat, "Avery, wait!" No Avery don't wait you run girl you run from that a**hat! I think Avery is FINALLY at her breaking point with her s*** that's going down and she finally loses it, "I didn't want this! This wasn't supposed to be my effing life! And you and your goddamned demons! I have my own! I can't live like this! I can't!" Marty he's like Avery's Hero this time around (I think she has a new one in each book but that's okay) "I can't let you lose sight of who you really are - that red dress and those clothes - that's not you. You're not a call girl..." THANK YOU MARTY I've been saying that for how many damn books now! Ugh Sean just when I start to come to grips with me despising you, you make me change my mind, "You are definitely worth the bother. I'll wait for you." EFFING CLIFFHANGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG these endings are giving me a heart condition.
As I ended book 5 I wanted to bitch-slapped Mel and knee Sean in the groin. I’m still not sure if I’m happy with their explanation and I think it’s best for Avery to doubt everything.
I’m dying to know his explanation for the ending of book 6 (I’m not giving anything away). Sometimes I want it to be something bad for Avery to take a step back and try to sort out her feelings, I sure don’t want it to be just something traumatic and he feeling guilty and her trying to fix him.
PLS PLS PLS Ms. Ward, let HIM fix himself!
If he wants to own and dominate her that’s fine, but let him man-up and face his demons.
I’m so looking forward to Avery standing on her own two feet, without regret or remorse.
And Marty… I don’t know how to feel about him. What “MAN” in his right mind passes as gay to try to win the heart of a girl he likes. That guy has a lot of problems.
I will be waiting for installment 7 to get some answer and hopefully the ending won’t give me a heart attack :D

Der Übergang ist wieder nahtlos. Nachdem Avery sieht, dass Sean Mel bestellt hat, kann sie nicht mehr. Sie wiederholt das auch ziemlich häufig, sie kann nicht mehr, alles zu viel... Sie tut einem ja leid aber diese Dauerschleife mag ich nicht.
Dann noch Martys Geständnisse. Den mag ich ja eigentlich und so wie er das sagt, tut er mir leid.
Der Sucht-Faktor lässt nicht nach, der Cliffhanger ist wieder eine Bombe, auch wenn das nicht so ist, da bin ich sicher.
Und wie immer: Insgesamt 26 Teile, 2,99€ jeweils für knapp 100 Seiten ist ziemlich unverschämt aber lohnt sich über Kindle Unlimited.
Aber Ward weiß wie man es macht, diese komplett kaputte Geschichte liest sich super schnell und flüssig, macht süchtig und die Cliffhanger werden immer mieser...
Und auf englisch ist das Ganze viel besser als auf deutsch, auch wenn es da doch ein paar Schreibfehler gibt.

I love and hate the hell out of this series. I am going nuts. Ready to leap off a bridge nuts! This is how I am feeling right this moment....
Did we really need another cliffhanger? Why didn't I wait to read this - heed the early reviews? Oh, yeah it's because I am nuts. Yep that must be it.
So we start this off where part 5 left off. The hallway. Mel. Sean. Avery.
But somethings aren't as they appear. But the rage did not fade, I think I stayed angry about that possibility throughout the story.
Avery is breaking. She is in love with Sean, a man that is so broken that there may be no saving him. She is nearing the brink of her own ability to function. She needs her life to play out the way she wants it to. She needs to keep her scholarship, she needs to earn money to survive, she needs to either let Sean go and hurt over him or she needs to let him control her - break her the rest of the way. She is so close to the edge, falling might not hurt as much as she thinks.
Sean is a mess. He lost his wife and child. There are secrets that linger about that loss - things that he won't open up about. Things about that loss that have destroyed him, any hope of him ever being whole again. A never ending cycle of self-punishment. But Sean may just be too broken to be fixed.
This one was far more intense than the others. I love and hate HM Ward right now. I am so captured by these books but I want my instant gratification. I want to know that Avery will save Sean. I want to know that the love Sean has for her is enough for him to open his eyes. I need to know what happened to his wife and child.
I want to rewind that moment and not have Marty make that confession. I can't accept him - in anyway than a friend. I want Mel to take back ever telling Avery about Ms. Black. I want to see Avery let that car-jacker take her car and have Sean ride away with her on the back of his bike into the night - never learning how messed up he is. I want all of this, but shit - I am not going to get anything. Not one thing.
These little short segments by HM Ward are just fantastic. I wish these were just done as one novel. I don't know how much I can take if this drags on longer than one more book. I have a feeling this weekend affair is going to be the final in this story - but I don't know if my heart can take another ending like that.

I received an ARC copy for a fair and honest review.
So when I read #4, I was very excited because I felt like Avery was truly starting to open herself up to some real grieving. She was owning her pain, and going through some very natural and healthy emotions. And then in #5, Avery and Sean seem to start to establish something with the potential to be real, though we know it's got all the potential to blow up in their faces, as we quickly find out at the end of #5. (by the way, holy crap the bathroom scene between Avery and Sean was just smoking hot!) At the end of #5, we find Sean walking Mel out of his hotel room and Avery loses it.
This is where we find them in #6, and let me tell you, the emotions in this book are explosive. The love, the jealousy, the hatred, the confusion, the chilling honesty, all in one short section just left me reeling. This book really focused on secrets, at the end of the day. Everyone has one and they all seemed to start spilling. After Avery finds Sean and Mel at the hotel, her breakdown is so emotional, so honest, so painful, I wanted to cry right along with her.
I will say that I am ready for this story to be wrapped up. I want some peace for Avery, Sean, even Mel and Marty. I love this stuff but I am not sure how many more sections I can take. I devoured this one though. I am pretty sure I ate it up in less then an hour. When #7 comes out (yes, there's at least one more) I think I will time myself.

I'm sorry H.M Ward but I did not enjoy book 6 as much as the previous books. It felt rushed. Also, It gave me the feeling that it has been written by someone else. It didn't feel like u. Can't put my finger on it but maybe it wasn't you at your best. The book was so much shorter than the others and seeing as we pay 2.99 for each book; this one felt like it wasn't worth that much. It's expensive for 41 pages (on my Sony).
Also, I think you should of made the book longer and wrapped up the story. ***Spoiler alert*** Sean could of explained his wife's death, that he blames himself for. Avery would clearly see it was an accident and that he should stop blaming and punishing himself for it. They once again declare their love. She quits being an escort; they live happily ever after. The End.
Therefore, please please please don't write past book 7. It's dragging on and your writing style is being affected coz I feel u r being rushed. Take your time to write it well. We can wait. It's worth the wait.
Overall; I loved The Arrangement series (more so at the start) but I found the Secrets series so much better.
I love your style of writing Holly. Please keep your creative juices flowing and continue to release some great books. Coz despite me not enjoying The Arrangement 6, you are one of my favourite authors.

Holly, Holly, Holly, what are you doing to me...another cliff hanger...and not even a little one a great big whopper of one...I thought that last one was bad but this one takes the biscuit!!
I am glad that I was right about the cliff hanger on the last one...I knew they wouldn't have done that to Avery. I loved Sean in this book, at last he had the guts to spill his heart, he admits he loves Avery, wants to take care of her and wants her to stop being a call girl. He admits that she has made him want to love and live again and she admits it too...all is going well...sort of....
Marty...hmmmm I had my doubts about him being gay and then he admits it...he loves Avery too and he is not gay...he just let her assume that so they could be friends...a bit of an asshat thing to do and now she doesn't really trust him anymore which is sad as he was her constant...she needs him, he was always there for her and now she feels as though she has lost it...
Then the end...well blow me down with a feather...I actually don't believe he means it the way it was worded...I am hoping that it is just an analogy for the guilt that he is feeling...
When is book 7 coming out and will it be the last?????
Fab instalment!!

Then the end...well blow me down with a feather...I actually don't believe he means it the way it was worded...I am hoping that it is just an analogy for the guilt that he is feeling...
When is book 7 coming out and will it be the last?????
Fab instalment!!

So yeah 5 stars, could i put it less no, I can't, you may ask why, well this is because this was so beyond my expectations, after how 5 ended i was literally pulling my hair out, because i couldn't get how things get that messed, but then my dear holly put's this out, and i literally fell of my bed in the end, i was so glad that i found this series almost complete, but no, i;m not that lucky just like Avery, i need to wait for things happen, so now i'm one more of the readers that get caught between SHAVERY, yes i just merge the names because this is what i do with couples i need together, so please someone be really kind and tell holly that this never will be coming soon enough for me, that the only good thing about this is that i'm going to hit the gym harder just to get my mind out of the book
I'm so glad that i start reading this series yesterday and this that hopefully will be the last one because i don't thin i can handle more about Sean, I WANT TO KILL HIM after what he did on the 5.... APRIL 30TH.... I NEED YOU LIKE YESTERDAY......

I am having a love/hate relationship with this series and Sean Ferro. This series has really drawn me in for the time being. This particular installment had zero proofreading done. The errors were so abundant and frustrating! If not for those, I probably would have rated this a little higher.
Now I’m on to Damaged, which is Peter Ferro’s book, because that is what’s next on the reading order list. I’ve read his books before and really liked them. Let’s see if my rating holds.

Audiobook Edition. I love the narrator of the series.
I enjoyed the attraction and suspense of the first 6 episodes. I've made it to #8 and I'm slowing down. Some of this is starting to make zero sense and it's kind of bugging me.

And, the Soap Opera continues with another chapter in the " Days, Nights, and Emotional Storms of Avery and Sean". If she were my friend, not Mel, I would advise her to stick it out until summer or she gets her undergraduate degree, then with her GPA, she should have little difficulty being accepted somewhere FAR AWAY. As for earning that extra income, there are a myriad of higher paying jobs with flexible hours for a bright, young, attractive young lady. Staying there and being emotionally battered day after day is SICK.
Doesn't matter the why or what, Mel had no business going to Sean's apartment. I figured that Marty was either straight or bi-sexual as Sean said that he was not gay and guys have better gaydar than us females. Getting some distance from Sean, Mel, Marty , Ms. Black, her old home and even her parent's graves might do her some good. You know that Holly won't let that happen, too logical. She needs a psychologist or psychiatrist of her own. The school could easily provide one for her considering her major. And, then there is the hook with Sean's last statement to make sure we come back and pay $8.00 + tax for the next piece of this soap opera. So, glad I received all but one of the books from Paperbackswap! On to book 7.

JUST WHEN I THINK I CAN GET OUT...THEY PULL ME BACK IN!
DAMN YOU ARRANGEMENT SERIES! DAMN YOU!!! AMAZING, BRILLIANT! AGHHHH!
Is there no end in sight? Am I to have my heart ripped open every month with a new addition to this series? And the most important question, Do I want to?!
HELL TO THE YES!!
I know I complain about being a masochist because I love this series so much. I know I complain that I can't take much more. I also know that being the weak-willed sucker I am, I will continue to eat this shit up! Why? If you seriously have to ask this question my only answer is: READ THE SERIES!
I am dumbstruck and speechless right about now. Why? WHY? does every addition end on such a mother-loving cliffy? Can we not just enjoy the story as it unfolds? Can we not be given a bone here? Regardless, the cliffy wasn't as infuriating as it was in #5--because that was without a doubt, the closest I have ever come to stroking--but it still rocks your world.
Of course there was a perfectly legitimate and logical reason Mel was where she was. Still, that woman pissed me off. And Sean? oh! you are lucky that your reputation gets restored with every book pal! But there are so many revelations this time around my head is spinning!
People who Avery trusted were revealed to be liars. Someone Avery assumed to be something turned out to be something else, and most importantly...wait for it...
SEAN DROPS THE MOTHERLODE BOMB OF THE CENTURY! He says so much in the last 2% I was quaking! I fell in love with him all over again and actually had to re-read the paragraph a couple of times, rub my eyes, take a drink, then re-read it again! INTENSE BABY!
But why he had to go and ruin it**sigh**. I guess all ghosts in our closets must be dusted out before we can move forward. DAMMIT Mz. WARD!? PLEASE GIVE THESE TWO A BREAK! GHEEZ!
I have faith in the love between Sean and Avery, HELL, I have faith that what he was accused of or what he takes responsibility for is an exaggeration of the truth. But I will say it again: This series is FUCKING FANTASTIC IN EVERY WAY! But there must be an ending soon because it is just all too much and really, unless Mz. Ward wants record-breaking admits to the emergency wards across North America, she best wrap this up! Just kidding! No, not really ;0.
LOVED IT, LOVED IT, LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
