Beck Danvers was created to break men like me.
Break them and own them.


Wow! Another amazing book in the series! In book 1, Revolt, there's just enough background story on Beck and the guys to make me curious about them and Rebel did not disappoint. Beck was a small-town girl trying to follow her dreams, but most importantly, she was on a revenge path and would take down anyone who got in her way. She had a mission and no one would stop her. Not even those 3 sexy rockstars who kept trying to break her walls down every day.
Chase, Kolton, and Trav, with their band, Dead Ringers, were on the hunt for a new lead singer since their last, and all the previous ones didn't work out. The Dead Ringers were on their last chance to make this work, scandal after scandal they were not getting the break they deserved, until Beck Danvers. She came to turn their world upside down, in more ways than one, good and bad.

“You can start again as many times as it takes. It’s your life, as long as you live it in a way that makes you happy, then you don’t owe anyone else anything.”

Rebel was amazing! I devoured this book and could not put it down, I was so invested from the start and kept creating theories in my head and I absolutely loved the plot twist and the ending. Seeing Beck grow and accept love and open herself up for more reasons to live was beautiful. Also, how the guys could overcome their past and the demons that haunted them because they finally had the piece that was missing in their lives. And the spice, omg, these 4 together was hotttt!!! Can't wait for the next book, I just know it'll be a banger like this one.

Tropes:
- Revenge
- Secret in-band romance
- Enemies to lovers
- Reverse Harem
- Rockstar

We briefly met Trav & Beck (although we didn’t really know who she was at the time) in Revolt.

Everyone is wondering who Beck Danvers is. She’s taken the world by storm as the Dead Ringer’s new lead singer. And then she walks off stage mid set during their sold out tour.

“𝕀'𝕝𝕝 𝕓𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕕𝕖𝕧𝕚𝕝 𝕚𝕗 𝕀 𝕙𝕒𝕧𝕖 𝕥𝕠, 𝕤𝕦𝕣𝕣𝕠𝕦𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕕 𝕓𝕪 𝕤𝕚𝕟𝕟𝕖𝕣𝕤.”

Okay I loved this book! We meet Beck as she’s auditioning for the band. We don’t know her story, but she’s got raw talent. Does she need some work? Yes, but the guys quickly realize she has it. And they’re needing a new lead singer after the tragedy that happened.

Beck has her own agenda, but that quickly changes as she gets to know the boys. I loved watching her with the guys & seeing their different personalities shine through. We see each character overcome their previous issues with the help of their fellow friends that are more like family. 🖤 She’s also a force to be reckoned with. I love her take no shit attitude. She’s on a mission & won’t let anyone deter her. She stands up for herself and won’t take no for an answer. She takes something so tragic & uses it to encourage others to make a change.

“ᴛʜᴀɴᴋ ʏᴏᴜ ꜰᴏʀ ʟɪꜱᴛᴇɴɪɴɢ, ɪ ʜᴏᴘᴇ ᴡᴇ ᴀʟʟ ʟᴇᴀʀɴ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴛʜɪɴɢ ꜰʀᴏᴍ ᴛʜɪꜱ. ɪ ʜᴏᴘᴇ ᴡᴇ ᴄʜᴀɴɢᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴀʏ ᴡᴇ ᴛʀᴇᴀᴛ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀꜱ. ɪ ʜᴏᴘᴇ ᴡᴇ ᴄʜᴏᴏꜱᴇ ʟᴏᴠᴇ ᴀɴᴅ ᴋɪɴᴅɴᴇꜱꜱ ʙᴇᴄᴀᴜꜱᴇ ɪ ᴡɪʟʟ."

Also loved Kolton opening up to Beck & her helping him heal his past traumas. And the way she stood up for him. Like we knew she was a badass, but YOU GO GIRL!! 👏🏻 The tattoo shop also had me cracking up. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this one! It was the perfect mix of sexy, sweet, & pure badass moments by a strong FMC.

And her finding some fellow friends, love that for her. And seeing Reign & her boys. Glad they found friendship with each other. Cannot wait for Riot!

Overall ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Spicy content 🌶🌶🌶🌶/5

I received this as an ARC, and my thoughts are honest and my own.

Katie has done it again! And I am not surprised! I loved every second of this book.
We follow the amazing Beck along with Kolt, Chase, and Trav! The members of the Dead Ringers.
But man, have they been through it, from addiction to losing loved ones to childhood trauma.
The growth in every single one of these characters is just phenomenal and so well written that I felt like I was right there with each and every one of them.

I love that each of the guys have their own things that they have going on, but Beck helps them all, and doesn't try to change anything about them, but they want to be better not only for themselves but her as well. The love just jumps off the page and hits you right in the heart.

Also, can I just say the plot twist I did not see coming. I thought one of the people involved but was blind sided when the truth came out!! That is all I will say because I don't want to spoil anything.

Beck is such a strong character as well that I couldn't stop rooting for her and everytime she got knocked down and got right back up and gave as good as she got, I couldn't help but cheer for her every time.
And these men just had my heart melting! I can't even pick a favourite because they are all amazing and all just walking green flags!

Run! Don't walk to get a copy of this book! It is such a great read that it will definitely be getting a re read from me!

Another amazing book!

This one blew me away with the storyline and the twists. Definitely can't wait to continue reading this series when the next one comes out. OMG I am enthralled by these books!

Note:

Now that I have sat on this book for a bit I can do a better review. I had a lot of thoughts with this book, all of them were decent but I didn't know how to form it into words right away.

This book touches on a lot of triggering content so please proceed with caution. Some of the triggering content is but not limited to: Suicide, Murder, Drug Use, Alcohol Use, Childhood Trauma, Assault. There is some I think I may be forgetting but those are the major ones I think should be known before diving in.

We follow Beck Danvers who in everything but mind is a wild card, she seems to come out of nowhere to work with the Dead Ringers. She is there for one thing and one thing only...Revenge for her sister. She wants whoever was responsible for driving her to commit suicide to be held responsible.

As we follow Beck and her fight against the boys we learn a lot of things about each character. I think that KA Knight did a good job of showcasing addiction and how a thought process works for some people battling it. I know I felt heard and seen through Chase and it was definitely a topic she knows quite a bit about. The way Koltons trauma is handled was a little fast paced but definitely enjoyable as she left it in the characters hands instead of outing him in a terrible manner.

The bond these four characters build is incredible and definitely something I think a lot of people are looking for in relationships. (I'm not referring to the red flags...and one thing I've learned if you don't realize you have a couple red flags yourself that in and of itself is a red flag.) I think the way they handled each other and the crisis' in the book was amazing and they definitely worked as a team...most of the time. There were a few times when they tried to handle on their own and learned that in a relationship that isn't how things go, even if you have been on your own for so long.

I think the twist was well done as well, I didn't suspect the main "villain" at all. I knew about their accomplice and hated that person the entire way through the novel but I thought they were going to be the main "villain" boy was I wrong. The entire premise is exactly what I'm sure most celebrities fear, which is what makes it even more realistic and frightening.

The writing in this book kept me reading as often as I could. I definitely want more from these characters, even just a novella. I loved their dynamic and the way they stood their ground with each other but also softened for each other when needed. Definitely what I would consider relationship goals!

ARC Review:
This book follows the band Dead Ringers with the bandmates: Trav, Kolt and Chase who are in desperate need of a new lead singer. And here we meet Beck Danvers at the audition for the spot as the new lead singer. The story kicks off with a lot of things happening, there is a lot of drama, passion and stubbornness but also so many secrets.

Each and every one of the four main characters has some baggage and some secrets to carry and I was so eager to figure out what was going on here. The story was captivating and I couldn’t put it down, I think I read it in two sitting but just because I had to sleep as well lol. I feel like I don’t wanna write too much into this review about the characters because you have to read and figure it out yourself.

But what I will say is that Rebel is a perfect mix of love, lost and finding yourself.
What makes this book really special is how the characters are portrayed, all of them have flaws and scars but all of them are also strong and working hard on fixing themselves to become better. This book gave me all the emotions, It’s definitely a must read if you love rockstar romance!

Unfortunately for me personally, there were too many things that didn't quite make sense, or were so over the top it just wasn't enjoyable, so for me this was only an ok read.
What I did like about this book is that it wasn't as insta-love as the first book, and I did like the chemistry and connections between Beck and the guys.
Beck did have some great moments of being strong, confident and bad@s$, but that was sometimes overshadowed by just how naive and frustrating she could be in other matters
There were some things that didn't quite line up for me, or weren't explained well
One over the top reaction was off putting for me because it bordered on ridiculous
There was also a scene with Reign that doesn't make sense from what we saw/knew of her in the first book, and with her being good friends with the guys.
For me this series is just not up to par with other rockstar books, so i'm not going to continue.

I was intrigued by Beck since we first met her in Revolt. And holy moly, was this book just as good as the first.

We start Beck’s story as the rockstars of Dead Ringer’s—Trav, Kolt, & Chase—are in desperate need of a lead singer. Auditioning for the role of lead singer, kicks off their story of secrets, drama, passion, and twists.

This story will captivate you, as you read about their own personal demons, laugh at the banter, and feel their chemistry. Gah, this book had me on my knees.

Loved their dynamics and seeing everything fall into place for them. Seriously, this author knocks everything she writes out of the park and I urge you to pick one of her books up.

Let me just start out by saying Katie has never written a book I haven’t loved and this one is no exception! I immediately fell in love with the characters in this book. They all have tragic pasts but that just made me love them more.

Beck has lost someone close to her and is on a mission to take the music world by storm to find out what happened. What she didn’t expect was the effect Kolten, Chase and Trav would have on her.

While struggling with her own demons she is there for all of the guys helping fight their’s. I love the way there’s no judgement just love.

This book is why-choose, found family, trauma, a kick @ss fmc, grief, love and so much more!

This book was absolutely phenomenal , after not being able to connect with the first book in this series. Starting this 2nd standalone, I was blown away by the plot of this story and seeing what was going to unfold from all that.

The characters, the chemistry, the connection, the banter, the thrill of the rockstar fame, the twist and turns had me at the edge of my seat In anticipation.

Absolutely loved seeing everything fall into place, secrets become revealed and seeing this group of lovers get their happily ever after.

I love KA Knight! This rockstar series is absolutely killer & the spice 🥵

I loved the characters & their backstories. So much trauma but ✨healing✨ together in such a beautiful way. Absolutely did NOT see that one villain coming until much later. And what a demon they were!

Add this to your TBR if you’re a fan of spice, RH/why choose, trauma reps, & romance

Thank you so much for writing another fabulous book, Katie! 🩷💚🖤

My favorite KA KNIGHT book. Her best book I've read (I haven't read all of hers so I'm biased). I would love to get this book signed by her. One of the most raw stories on rockstars and reverse harem. LOVE IT. Well done. WELL FUCKING DONE

Let me start by saying this is the first book I've read by this author. I've heard a lot of mixed feelings in regards to her work, but my feelings are that I absolutely loved this book. I know there is a book before, but it's different people, and I will go back and read that. Now, back to Rebel.

This book started great, although it was hard to make out who's POV it was until I realised that the skulls at the header contained the names. It was totally my mistake, but from then on, it was full steam ahead, and it was brilliant. I knew there would be a lot of upset, just from the blurb, and I knew as the story unfolded, it wasn't going to be cut and dry. And how right was I. I cried for all of the maim characters, but I'd say Willa the most. Although she doesn't speak or appear in person in this book, she was very much the heart of it.

Beck, Trav, Chase, and Kolton were the main players in this story, and I wish I could go into detail, but I can't. This story is one that needs to be experienced firsthand. You need the full experience. I, on many occasions, thought I had it figured out, and although I had in a way, it wasn't as straightforward as I thought. Many things change, and I second guessed the outcome. Some of the secrets that are revealed are hard to read, but I think it's necessary for the story. You also find out the truth as to what happens, and that broke me to pieces.

Although this is an unconventional love story, it's a beautiful one and one that I thought was fitting for all involved. This book won't be everyone's cup of tea, and that's ok. I think you need to go in with an open mind, and if you're triggered, then read the warnings and don't read it.

I can honestly say this book was brilliant and a huge recommend from me. It certainly won't be the last book I read from this author.

This is a game, but I was never good at following the rules.

Beck Danvers is a woman on a mission and nothing will stop her from finding the answers she needs…then bringing those involved crushing down. Being the new lead singer of Dead Ringers, Beck is a force to be reckoned with and takes no sh!t from her new hot bandmates, Chase, Kolton & Trav.

However, being this close to them means she may finally get the truth but at what cost? Beck is already willing to sacrifice herself…but when the time comes can she really face the realities of what she needs to do?

I knew I would lose some of myself on the way. I just never expected it to be my heart.

Feelings, secrets and loyalties are going to be tested…Can the Dead Ringers ever be the smash hit band they’ve worked soo hard to be?

“Play with me. Being bad is so good.”

Rebel follows the same timeline as book 1 Revolt, with Beck rocking the pants of the Dead Ringers and we find out what was really going on behind the scenes with the disappearance of Beck.

But…leading up to that shocking event, you meet Beck and you find out the reasons why she was determined to join the Dead Ringers band and get under Chase, Trav & Kolton skin.

It almost felt like two stories evolved into one, there is a lot of mystery happening at the start with Beck as you start to piece together who she is and her involvement and her relationships forming with the guys. Then being new to the stardome of the music industry you start her journey as she starts to also grow more and still with her firm attitude to remain true to herself…or is it to the person she is portraying to be? The guys are drop dead amazing, each holding their own pasts close and slowly revealing more to Beck as they feel the connection between them all growing.

You know it’s coming and wait to see how it really will fall into place…will it be real still or just fake to carry on the band name to reach their goal finally?

Or will the mystery… or curse of the band consume Beck and she really does lose everything?

I will make them dance to my song, and when the curtain drops, so will their facades and the truth.

Legends and Love Book 2. While each book can be read as a standalone as each book follows a new couple, it is strongly recommend you read the books in order to get the most of the story and to avoid spoilery situations for prior books.

𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
This book follows Beck Danvers that we briefly meet in book 1. She has joined the Dead Ringers band as their new lead singer… but there are secrets just under the veil that no one is aware of. But as the veil is pulled back and truths are revealed, not all is as it seems. As her connection and feelings for the guys grow, she questions more and more what she believes the truth to be. Beck is determined to get down to the truth of the past and everything it may encompass.

This book had so much emotion that the pages were overflowing with it. It will hit you in all the feels. The good, the bad, the ugly… you name it and this brings it all. Each character has some inner turmoil to overcome and a past they aren’t proud of. I don’t want to go into detail and spoil anything but each of these characters will have your heart clenching and just wanting to hug them. I loved this group together. I loved how supportive, loyal and protective they were of each other. They all also show a ton of vulnerability throughout the entire book and it just makes their connection that much stronger. But then could also turn around and be so playful and teasing with eachother. It was just a beautiful relationship entirely. I really enjoyed this one and I’m excited for Fallon’s book next!

I hadn't actually read a rockstar romance before reading this series by @katieknightauthor, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I have been an avid lover of Katie's books for a long time, and this one definitely didn't disappoint. I loved the fact that we had nods and a little involvement from Reign in this book. Tying Revolt into this story. The chemistry between Chase and Beck was scorching from the get-go, and I really loved the humour and fire between them.

This story does cover some triggering content such as childhood SA, but it is only described from memory and not acted out on page. I really loved how this was handled and how well the character in questions trauma was shown, but also the beautiful way in which we got to see their trauma begin to heal, and how that was done with Becks relationship and involvement ( I really would like to discuss this more as it was heart wrenching but so beautiful to read. But I'm worried about spoilers). I like how, as opposed to the big bad alpha males we normally see in books, these guys are almost innocent under their hot shot exteriors, and their is a gentleness and fragility to them that was really endearing. This does not take away from their masculinity or sex appeal, rather, reinforces it and has you utterly swooning for all three of them. Kolton, God love him, I thoroughly loved watching him come out of his shell.

Beck has had quite a traumatic and isolated past and it was heartbreaking exploring her pain with her, but she is a fierce lady and watching her struggle between what she thought she knew and what the evidence is showing her when it comes to the guys had me enraptured. That and the fierce way that she protects them like a savage mama bear. Fantatsic.It's quite a fast-paced read, and I actually liked that for this story. Overall, I loved it and would definitely recommend it.

K.A. Knight does it again!

This would be my third rockstar romance book, second from Katie. But I have to say that Rebel has sky rocketed to the top as a favorite rockstar RH, and here I was thinking she couldn't out do Revolt.

Beck Danvers comes into play in Revolt. She's daring, she's ruthless when she needs to be; but she is kind hearted and selfless when it comes to the people she loves or cares for. She's there for one specific purpose; revenge. Revenge for someone who she loved with her whole heart and soul. And she was going to get it, through any means necessary. But when lines start getting crossed, they start getting blurry she starts to wonder if the plan she came up with all that time ago involves these three men.

In this book, she touches on SA. Specifically, she touches on SA on a man, a child when it happened. She shows us through trauma and ramifications what come with not only men but women too who have gone through this terrible act. The way they act around opposite sexes, the way even the mention of a name, the sight of a person leaves them almost frozen in their spots. Their pain is not always seen by everyone, but those who they feel safe and comfortable to tell.

Another couple things she talks about are drug use, addiction, and suicide. Sometimes those things collide and the way people handle those feelings. The guilt they can feel when those things collide. If you, or anyone you know are going through anything feeling alone and like you can't do it; know you're not alone and you CAN get help.

This book has things I did NOT expect in it. Sure I've read other books by K.A. Knight (quite a few of them) but this book has to be one of the saddest I've read. (No, not because it's poorly written or anything like that). I cannot express the love I have for Katie's writing, she will always be one of my favorite authors.

If K.A. Knight writes it, I will read it! I absolutely loved this book which is not a shock because I’ve loved everything I’ve read by her.

If you love why choose, rockstar romance, touch her and die, he’s obsessed with her, revenge plot then you will love this book!

I was so excited to get this story after meeting Trav and Beck in Revolt (book 1). From the very first page I was hooked and needed to know more about the Dead Ringers and what secrets they were hiding. I loved how this took place during the same time as Revolt so we got to see a few scenes from that book from these characters perspectives.

K.A. Knight knows how to write incredible characters and book boyfriends! I loved how dynamic and real these characters were. They all had some form of trauma from their pasts and each story broke my heart. They each went through something horrific that changed them and they all just wanted someone to reach out to help and accept them. I loved seeing them all learn to trust and lean on each other while never trying to change or “fix” the others. This book was all about healing and learning to love yourself and others.

The chemistry between the four of them was off the charts. I know a K.A. Knight spice scene will be good but there was an extra layer of vulnerability and trust here with the traumas that Kolten and Chase faced.

I can’t wait for Fallons book. I’m intrigued because we hardly know anything about her story. We got a lot of Beck and her guys in Revolt so we already knew a bit about what was going on there, but we know almost nothing about Fallon.

This story does have some triggering subjects like suicide by a family member/friend, childhood SA, tragic death of friends, and drug and sex addiction. All only told as memories and not depicted on page.

I am so obsessed!

I was in the biggest reading slump of my life until I started reading this book. This book sucked me in and held me captive. If I could somehow jump into this story and be the main character, I would. The plot of this story held my attention from the very beginning to the end. The characters own a place in my heart forever. This book had me going through so many emotions that I would give anything to read this book for the first time again. This book is definitely one of my favorite reads of the year.

Beck Danvers is the lead singer of Dead Ringers but who is she and why did she storm off the stage on the sold-out world tour? Where did she go?

Beck’s character was introduced in Revolt and I knew then that I was going to love her and sure enough, I love her. Her character is so strong but is also holding on by a thread. Her story and where she comes from had me ready to go to war for her. She is forever one of my favorite characters written.

The Dead Ringers have been in the spotlight non-stop. From tragedies, scandals, and now another lead singer is gone. This band is looking cursed but are they?

Kolton, Trav, and Chase have been through the wringer ever since they were kids. I truly felt so much for them in this story. The emotions they made me feel had me in a chokehold several times. One moment I was laughing, then I was crying, and then next I was blushing and wishing I could take Beck’s place. I loved these characters so much.

K.A. Knight has done it again. Over and over again, I fall in love with the words, characters, and storylines that K.A. Knight creates. K.A. is one of my favorite authors and Rebel is one of my favorite books. I highly recommend reading Revolt and Rebel. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the next rockstar.

It almost seems like The Dead Ringers are cursed. Each time they are on the brink of superstardom, they are hit with tragedy. Now at their happiest, it's happening again as their lead singer Beck Danvers runs off stage mid-performance. This time it's not just the band's success at risk, it's their hearts.

This book left me reeling and raw. It broke my heart time and time again. So much pain and ugly human acts intermingled within a compelling rock story. Rehearsals and parties set the backdrop for meaningful moments, silly antics, budding friendships, scorching attractions, and dangerous enemies. But in the end, hope and love won out. Proof that we can survive and thrive. We may never be completely whole but we can fill the void and make sense of loss. We can live. These characters are complex, damaged, and flawed. They make mistakes. They confess, apologize, and forgive. Each character has lost their innocence in one way or another. There is addiction, abuse, and suicide but there is an unexpected innocence underneath the devastation that makes each character more sympathetic. Beck is fierce and vulnerable. Chase is lost. Trav is exhausted. Kolton is scared. They each bear the scars of their birth families. Now, as chosen family, they have a chance at fame, fortune, happiness, security, and love. This isn't so much a story of second chances but of the last chance. Each character displays such openness and bravery along the way to forever. It's not a story of change but of acceptance. It's beautiful.

Beck Danvers has a mission. She is set on revenge. She has her sights set on the band Dead Ringers. When she becomes the lead singer she wants to find out their secrets and use them against them. She wants to end Chase, Kolton, and Trav. The problem is as she learns more about these charismatic and flawed men she sees they are not what she thought they were. If they are not the villains she is looking for who is? Is there really a curse on the band or something behind the scenes working against them?

There is plenty of spice throughout this book. The chemistry flies off the pages. The suspense of Beck’s past and why she is there and what happened to the last singer permeates the pages. It’s a gripping tail of mental health and fame. Who can the band trust? Who can Beck really trust?

This book is from 4 POV which gives a well rounded idea of what is happening. It doesnt really pick up pass for the first part. Beck starts out pretty abrasive once she gives more of her back story and her reasons for why she is doing what she is her abrasiveness lessens. Each other the guys is charming and fun. They each reveal themselves to have insecurities and in all cases trauma that keeps them from really opening up to people. With Beck those walls are torn down. They all find the rhythm and become the best versions of themselves.

Please note there are some heavy topics (abuse, Addiction, death, Mental health) all are dealt with compassionately. The last quarter of the book moves quick and I did not want to put it down.
I received and ARC and am Reviewing

An emotional RH Rockstar romance

The dead ringers rock band is holding auditions for a new lead singer before their next big tour when they meet Beck Danvers. She’s got a voice, an attitude, and she’s drop dead gorgeous just what the band needs to make a comeback after the tragic death of their last lead singer. Beck signs with the band, but she’s not there for fame or stardom. In fact, she has no intention of ever going on tour. She wants answers, she wants revenge, and what better way of getting it than to join the enemy and work from the inside. All would have been a good plan if she didn’t start catching feelings….

Another fantasti RH from KK.A Knight! Kolton , Chase, Travis, and Beck are pure steam. The chemistry they have together is just so good! This entire story was everything I look for in RH and rockstar romance. Each of the male MCs had very different personalities and backgrounds, and Beck really had the compassion, strength, and love enough for all three. The plot of the story was interesting and very tragic and highlights some of the ugly parts of fame. My heart really broke for each of them, especially Kolton, because what happened to him in his life was devastating and twisted.

This was an overall great read, steamy, emotional, and full of heart. I’d definitely recommend this one if you like why choose romance/ rockstar romance.

This book does deal with some heavy subjects, trauma, mental health,  and abuse, so please check for trigger warnings

This is a rockstar romance read, a why choose romance, revenge romance, enemies to lovers romance, Forced Proximity and is book #2 in the Legends and Love series.

This is a standalone in the series but I definitely recommend reading them in order.

#1 Revolt
#2 Rebel
#3 Riot

Beck Knight is out for revenge. After the death of her sister she wants to find out who pushed her over the edge. But what Beck wasn't expecting at all was Chase, Trav and Kolton.
Chase is a man battling his own demons, while Trav and Kolt have alot of their own trauma hidden deep down inside. But these guys are like brothers and will always have each others backs. The first they laid their eyes on Neck they knew she was special.


I absolutely loved these characters they were all different in their own ways. Chase is a playboy fighting his addiction, while Kolton is the quiet one who doesn't like to be touched at all and Trav is the levels headed one who sees the logic in things but also has been through alot himself.
I loved how protective they all were and how they all connected when they all were together and I loved how much fight Beck had in her and how she'd fight for her life and the life her sister should have had. This book was definitely full of twists and turns and shockers totally. I loved the suspense and I was completely gripped right from the start.
I really enjoyed this reverse harem romance and I couldn't put this book down and kept turning those pages fast. I love how this author writes and I love her style and I'm sooooooooo excited for book 3.
