Two years ago, Noah and Sierra shared a very passionate kiss that promised much more until he realized she was the sister of his friend and unit commander. The bro-code firmly engaged, he left her feeling rather bereft. The same thing happened again a year later, and both vowed it wouldn’t happen again. Unfortunately, time has not lessened the memory of that kiss or the connection they felt between them. To make matters worse, his friendship with her brother means that can’t avoid each other completely. Now that all of her brothers have found the loves of their lives, Sierra is feeling more lonely and isolated.
When Sierra is involved in an incident that puts her security at risk, her brothers and Noah decide that he is the best man to protector her, and that he should take her out of the country. Close proximity wears heavily on their control, and Sierra certainly enjoys tempting Noah, though it is their fiery chemistry that destroys his resistance. No matter how much he reminds himself about the bro code, the age difference, and the fact that he is there as her protector, Noah can’t keep his hands off of Sierra. Then another incident puts Sierra’s life at risk. When the guilt sets in, Noah distances himself from Sierra. Their story becomes rather tangled up with advancing and retreating, feeling guilty, trying to keep their secret then being determined to make their relationship known to her brothers, all while trying to find out who is targeting her and why. It is steamy, emotional, entertaining and captivating.

This is a great addition to the Alpha Billionaire Series with Sierra the last of the Beckett clan to find her way to love. Sierra has had a crush on her brother, Sawyer’s best friend, Noah for years. Noah served in the military with Sawyer and will not cross the bro code even if he wants Sierra. When danger finds Sierra the Beckett brothers get Noah to take Sierra to Italy to hide for safety and time to figure out the threat. While there these two can not ignore their need to be imitate and it’s something amazing only to have Noah shut down afterwards. Sierra spends one attempt after another showing Noah they can be together even if it’s a secret while in hiding. These two fall for one another and Sierra hopes she can be with Noah once her threat is over so when she’s shot at and Noah is not there he blames himself and pulls away again leaving Sierra heartbroken and pregnant. Noah makes decisions believing one thing so when he uncovers the next threat and her secret does he step up for all the right reasons! I’m sad to see the Beckett Clan is complete, you’ll fall in love with these guys. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Noah and Sierra Finally Admit They're Crazy For Each Other
US Navy SEAL Noah and sweet Sierra meet and sparks fly but then he realizes that she is the little sister of his commanding officer and he backs off. Fast forward 2 years and both Noah and Sierra's brother, Sawyer, are out of the Navy and best buds. They are never far away from each other's thoughts, especially when Noah goes to work for her brother's, managing security.
When threats are made against Sierra's life, her brothers send her to a safe house in Italy with Noah as her bodyguard. You guessed it. Only one bed. And proximity leads to unbridled passion. They give in.
Of course things never run smoothly. And no it is still concerned that her brothers are never going to accept him and he's really afraid that they're going to reject him. It takes renewed danger for Noah and Sierra to realize that they're meant to be together despite the odds.
This was a pleasant read. It didn't break any new grounds in the only one bed trope, but I enjoyed reading it. There are the odd typos. And it needed one more round of proofreading. But the hours did not detract from my enjoyment. This is worth a read

Sierra and Noah have been dancing around their attraction for years now. Nothing has ever come of it and not because she hasn’t tried, but Noah is afraid to lose her brother who is his best friend. When danger comes after Sierra, Noah is right there to protect her. Tight quarters make for good bedfellows, if you know what I mean. How’s the saying? What happens in Italy stays in Italy. Well we all know that’s not going to happen. I loved their story with a lot of push/pull, great banter and lots of sass. Sierra knows what she wants and now all she has to do is get Noah to come to his senses and realize they are better together than apart. Awesome read. I found this book on BookSprout.

Woohoo I have been waiting patiently for Sierra Beckett book and holy smokes this book was absolutely fantastic and had me enthralled from the beginning until the end and will have you sitting on the edge of your seat as well. Sierra and Noah meet in the hottest way but when he realizes she's off limits can she stay away from him and stop from getting her heart broken? Noah just got out of the seals and decided to set roots where his best friend lives but can he keep his feelings for Sawyer sister away and stay away from her? When someone tries to kidnap her, he steps in to be her bodyguard, but will it blow up when hearts get destroyed? Absolutely loved this book.

When she is in danger, Noah is sent out of town with her to keep her safe. Lines are crossed and he gives into his desire but then back petals when they have to return.
Will pull his head out of his but before he loses her for good? This is a steamy read with a rollercoaster ride for the pair.

Secondo libro dell'autrice che leggo. Il primo aveva una pessima traduzione, piena di errori. Questo per lo meno non me aveva, uno forse ma come capita in moltissimi libri.
La storia è scorrevole e lineare, anche nei momenti di suspence in realtà non c'è chissà che fiato da trattenere.
Libro breve, si legge in giornata volendo, ha solo 228 pagine.
Non è il massimo, e non capisco come i libri di questa autrice abbiano così tante stelle. La trama è bella, ma è veloce e abbastanza superficiale a tratti ripetitiva.

Awesome work from Ava Gray - worth 5 stars
Absolutely loved reading Noah & Sierra's story. She has a thing for her brother's best friend. He wants his best friend's little sister but she has 4 intimidating brother's. When they are forced into a safe house sparks fly & suddenly that line of temptation is getting awfully blurry. Will Noah fight for Sierra or will he allow fear to get in his way?.

Great addition to the series of the Beckett siblings. Sierra is the youngest and finally finds a man that captures her eye but unfortunately he turns out to be her brothers best friend. And “bro” code means she is off limits. Then they are placed in a situation where they can’t fight the attraction anymore but their passion becomes a distraction and he needs to keep her safe.

3.5-4✨
J’avais hâte du dernier tome de la fratrie Beckett.
Sierra est vraiment adorable. Elle est douce, gentille et elle hésite pas à dire ce qu’elle pense, ce qu’elle veut et fait tout pour arriver à ses fins.
Noah est protecteur mais il sacrifie son bonheur pour les autres.
Les deux sont mims.
Un bon tome pour clôturer la saga. C’est sympa de tous les revoir et de les voir toujours plus unis.

Danger Brings the Family Together
Suspense and danger bring Noah and Sierra closer together where they can finally explord their attraction. However, her four brothers need to be considered when making the official step towards more. This was a great story that was both enjoyable and exciting.

It had so much potential
It started out really good and then got progressively worse. Continuity errors and a general lack of subject knowledge abound. Way too much suspension of disbelief for something that's not fantasy. And for supposedly mature characters, 28 & 38 they are really juvenile.

nice book
I did not read any other of the Alpha Billionaires books. I’m sure I might have gotten a bit more backstory with the family, but I don’t feel like I missed out. I didn’t mind this book at all
