Loved the third installment of the Dangerous Blooms and can’t wait for the fourth this summer! Cami and James were perfect and so unique from the rest of the Blooms. I love how each story continues to be so different romantically from the rest but also carries the overarching mystery forward. The suspense was great and slightly nerve wracking and I did really love the slow burn romance. I’d definitely recommend this series!
Fantastic!!!!! This is my favorite book of the series so far!!! My favorite part of Kate’s books is that they have a little bit of everything. Suspense, drama, romance, family dynamics, humor, literally everything you could ever want in a book. Kate’s writing is amazing and I feel like I’m watching a movie while reading her books. Just wow!!!!!
Another fantastic installment in the Dangerous Blooms series! This time it’s James turn to find love. Cami is an old college friend and murder podcaster. Their chemistry is off the charts! See You Soon is filled with romance and mystery. The Blooms finally get some answers!! I’m ready for Declan’s turn!
- Romantic suspense - Second chance - Fake relationship
Wow, this book was so gripping! I sat down to read it and did not move until I was done with it! I did not want the story to end!
This is the third book in the Dangerous Blooms series. Several items in the story reference events from previous books, but overall, this can be read as a standalone. But the other books in this series are very good, so I do recommend picking them up!
Back in college, Cami and James were friends. Although Cami wanted to be more than that, it was not meant to be. After a miscommunication, their friendship suffered and they lost touch.
Fast forward twelve years. James had reached out to Cami's company (she co-hosts a cold case, true crime podcast) to learn more about a specific type of chemical he thinks contributed to the loss of his father, potentially by his stepmother's hand. Although the request was denied, he can't stop thinking about her. So when he sees her in the bar of the hotel where he lives, he is surprised when she asks him to pretend to be her boyfriend to ward off the unwelcome advances of her investor. This allows them to give into their feelings and they spend a night together. James would like more, but he has a strict rule in place. Cami would also like more, but she respects James's stance. But pictures of them together have made it to social media and Cami asks James to continue the ruse.
In the meantime, the case that Cami and her other host, Madison, are currently researching has some unexpected and scary turns. Will this be the last case they'll broadcast?
I loved the suspense part of this story every bit as much as the romance. It was a joy to read!
Meet James Bloom, the newest addition to your list of favorite fictional crushes! In the thrilling third installment of the Dangerous Blooms series, we dive into James and Cami's rollercoaster of a story. What makes this book so irresistible? Well, let me spill the tea.
James, a hotshot attorney and Luke's twin, unexpectedly reunites with Cami one fateful night. Flashback to their college days, where sparks flew between them, hinting at something more. But just when things were heating up, life threw them a curveball, leading James to make some big life changes and vanish from Cami's world.
Fast forward to the present, and Cami's now a true crime podcast host, diving deep into unsolved mysteries. But when she finds herself in a tight spot, who comes to her rescue? You guessed it—James, in all his swoon-worthy glory.
As they reconnect, you can't help but wonder: will they pick up where they left off as friends, or is there potential for something more? And what's the deal with Cami's latest cold case, which seems to have eerie connections to James and the enigmatic Bloom family?
With twists and turns aplenty, this suspenseful romance will have you hooked from page one. You'll be on the edge of your seat, devouring each chapter to uncover the juicy secrets lying in wait. But brace yourself—once you start, you won't want to put it down. If you're already mourning the end of James and Cami's story, fear not! There are still mysteries to unravel in Declan's upcoming book.
For me - this book was the best so far! Cami and James’ chemistry was like a live wire through the pages! Their banter was fun, the intimate moments tastefully done.
Cami is a podcaster and James is the brother of Declan, Luke and Cara. Cami and James were at college together. They had a falling out and it’s been 12 years since they’ve seen one another. They reconnect in a bar when Cami has a slight issue with an advertiser and seeks James’ help.
But James needs some information from Cami about a theory he has about his father’s death - if only he can reconcile their falling out. And Cami has something going on in her life which is not easy to deal with.
Will these two find their way back to what they had before?
As always, I thoroughly enjoyed Kate Breitfeller’s newest book. I received an ARC from the author in exchange for my honest opinion.
If you haven’t read her - you need to! Her characters are always so lifelike and the stories will grasp your interest from beginning to end! You won’t be disappointed!
THE ABSOLUTE PLOT TWIST IS ONE THAT I DID NOT SEE COMING AT ALL. NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT. these characters are so so sweet, especially cami, the way she’s fighting for justice for Amy is so sweet. The chemistry between cami and james is SIZZLING FROM THE FIRST PAGE!! i love how he’s like the big strong man she needs to keep her safe but she can also handle herself like damn okay miss badass!!! the whole justin situation is MING BOGGLING!! not only was he PINING FOR CAMI while he HAD A GIRLFRIEND, but come to find out he was lowkey grooming her to be cami practically AND he ends up attacking james for her? because HE EMBARASSED HIMSELF? BUDDY YOU DID THAT YOURSELF JAMES JUST GAVE YOU THE MEDIA COVERAGE YOU NEEDED😂 not gonna lie i am kinda glad matt’s gone cause that heiffer was rude and gross even if he wasn’t the killer ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE BLOOM MYSTERY?? i feel like it was solved but something is going to come to light that we didn’t know before and it’s just ugdhdndjddnd ITS SO GOOD. i definitely know this book deserved the 5 stars im giving it!!

The author has definitely done it again...I love how this one was even more of a suspense romance than the previous. They definitely all interconnect but this has more suspense due to the FMC being a true crime podcaster. The relationship between James and Cami is tough due to their past, but it makes it so much hotter when they finally realize that their feelings from the past are still there. While Cami is working on a podcast, she runs into James and they pretend to be in a relationship to get her out of an uncomfortable situation. James and Cami decide to have a one night stand to get it out of their system, it doesn't end up working and they continue the fake relationship to benefit them both. They end up learning more about each other and their past, while also learning her current podcast overlaps the Bloom family mysteries. Twists and turns throughout, with a shocking ending.
The story is starting to fall into place. Bit by bit each book makes the plot come together. Book three in the Bloom series is as much of a rollercoaster as the other 2 before it.
There’s something to be said about the women in the Bloom world. These men are Alpha protectors through and through, but the women they love are insane. These men have met their matches!
Half the time I was literally screaming at Cami to be careful and I felt so bad for James and how fiercely independent she was. His blood pressure had to have been constantly through the roof! But she was tenacious and headstrong!
There are so many moving parts to this story, I can’t get enough of it!
Apparently, I like a little suspense with my romance and this series delivers. James is a lawyer and Cami is a true crime podcaster. They were close friends in college, but were torn apart by a misunderstanding and hadn’t seen each other in years. Now they’re fake dating for professional reasons, but their true feelings for each other and the truth of years ago comes out. All this while trying to solve 2 crimes. These characters are great and this is an interesting story. Can’t wait to read the next!!
Suspenseful Romance Second Chance Miscommunication Fake Dated Relationship for convenience This has been my favorite book in the series. We were able to get several questions answered but the best part was the romantic relationship between Camellia and James. They went from best friends to enemies (or estranged) to fake dating to madly in love. This was so well done that I couldn’t put it down. One of my favorite books of the year and I cannot wait for book 4 because I know it will be amazing!
Kate Breitfeller has done it again! There's so much to love about See You Again and the rest of the Dangerous Blooms series - romance, suspense, action, and characters who, despite their riches, feel like real people who you might be introduced to if you happened to be in the right place at the right time. I love the highly unusual family dynamics that are complicated, but not to the point that you need a map, and now, three books into the series, they all feel like old friends. So many questions were answered in this book, so I can't wait to see what new ones will be introduced in book 4!
What a great book I loved James and Cami together, they just made a perfect couple. An engaging story that kept me thoroughly entertained till the very end. I love the Bloom family and their interactions with each other. I can’t wait to see who Declan is matched with! I sense it’s going to be epic! The continuing saga has some of the answers within this book, but leaves plenty of interest for future stories! I would love a book about Madison and Alex as well! Overall a really great read
I was told I'd like the Bloom brothers more with each book, and it's absolutely true. James is protective of Cami without being overbearing (and doesn't make the same mistake his brother did). There's a huge historical misunderstanding that is finally worked out about halfway through the book and the drama that brings! Then you have the ongoing mystery surrounding their father's death and the twist! I didn't see it coming but !!! Cannot recommend these enough!
This is, by far (in my opinion), the best of the Blooms so far. I love me a good second-chance romance and this book hit that nail on the head. If you’ve read the first two, you know how intense everything became, and this book finally begins to tie things together. James might be my favorite bloom yet - new book boyfriend? Absolutely. Can’t wait to read Declan’s!
I absolutely loved cami and James. Their story was heartbreaking but so so well loved.
The twists in this series will leave you with your jaw dropped.
Each character is so well thought out and the way each character from the previous books of the series still have a role in this book makes my heart so happy.
I received this book as part of an ARC. I love this book series, the Bloom family has been through a lot and have seen their fair share of death. In this book you finally get to see who is behind all of the deaths in their family. Cami and James were able to rekindle their relationship after all these years and learn who the murderer was in her true crime podcast.

I loved the previous books in this series and this one is no exception! I adore each of the Bloom’s relationships but I believe James and Cami’s relationship has been my favorite. With all the suspense and how many secrets got revealed, I am (im)patiently waiting for See You Maybe!
There is a tie between James and Declans stories being my favorite. The revelations that came in this book on their dad's murder is 🤯🤯 . I NEVER seen that scene coming, nor in the way that it did. The Bloom women are a fierce group all on their own.
This series is so much fun! Each book focuses on a different sibling in the Bloom family and this is James and Cami's story. Their love story is both sweet and spicy. 🔥 I loved the continuing family storyline and mystery. I felt like I was seeing old friends when characters from the previous books were woven into this story. Definitely recommend, the mystery twist and turns are fun and the romance is very spicy.
Amazing!!! A different version of a slow burn and the perfect mix of romance, spice & mystery! Bonus - if you’re a crime podcast listener you’re going to want to read this book 😍
Loved Cami and James. Both strong personalities and the got some more info own the current Bloom saga. Anxiously awaiting Declan’s to see what Kate has in store for us.
This might be my new favorite of the series! Cami is so smart and determined! I love the balance between her and James. The build up of her trying to solve the murder had me on the edge of my seat! I can’t wait for the next book!!
I love second chance romances. So you know I loved Cami and James story! Loved the banter between them. Then the suspense just had me on edge, that made me enjoy the story even more. This is the third book in the series. You can read it as a standalone. Though I personally think you should start from the beginning. You will love the other two books in the series just as much.
