Love in the Pacific Northwest #6
Complete Me
When it rains, it pours. And right now, it’s a freaking monsoon.
After my parents' deaths, I devoted myself to raising my younger siblings. It meant growing up fast, but I had to keep the family together. Romantic relationships weren’t a priority. My siblings had to come first.
It takes my near-death experience for me to reprioritize yet again. I need to stop meddling in my siblings’ lives and focus on me. Only, I’m not sure I remember how. Then Kaino Nieminen and Xander Neilsen walk out of my past and into my hospital room, and maybe, just maybe, the universe is finally cutting me a break.
I live to fill eager students’ minds with the wonder that is Dickens and Austen, to debate the merits of Shelley, and dive into the scandalous roots of the Bronte sisters’ novels. Woe betide the graduate student who doesn’t find English Literature fascinating. I have no patience for unenthusiastic students, or issues letting them know. I’ve been called sharp-tongued, defensive, and dramatic. Traits of many main characters in my beloved classic novels, so I take it as a compliment. Though it doesn’t win friends and influence students. Or Deans in the English department. Or romantic partners.
Except for Bjorn Osouf. Our fleeting but passionate relationship burns in my memory, like the glowing embers of Manderley. When the fool plays hero and almost gets himself killed, I take it as my sign to reconnect. As expected, there’s still a spark between us. What I don’t anticipate is the imminently fascinating Kaino Nieminen, or my inconvenient attraction to them.
Making personal connections is a challenge. I’m no introvert, but I need time to really get to know someone, to trust them, before they’re a friend. As a non-binary, touch-averse, demisexual, it takes even longer for anything romantic to develop, and believe me, most people aren’t that patient.
Only one person has cared to try. And when he almost dies, it’s the shove I need to reconnect. Before I know it, I’m in Bjorn Osouf’s hospital room, and the instant reconnection has me eager to give things one more try. Then Xander Neilsen walks in and throws a wrench into my plan.
Complete Me is a low-angst, MMX, opposites attract, second chance contemporary LGBTQ+ romance about unexpected connections, being more than two halves of a whole, and finding the perfect fit, even if it’s not quite as expected. It contains lots of dad jokes, no cheating, and has a guaranteed happily ever after.

A Joyfully Jay review.
4.25 stars
Complete Me is the sixth and final book in Beck Grey’s Love in the Pacific Northwest series and brings things to a really lovely ending. These books have a strong found family vibe (and in some cases literal family) and the characters regularly appear in one another’s books. The cast generally falls into two interconnected groups — a close friend group and the Osouf brothers.
We get an epilogue that brings back many of the couples we have met along the way to give us a chance to catch up on how they are all doing. At the end of the book, Grey notes that they are starting a new series, Love by the Bushel, that will feature more stories for the MacDougalls (who we meet in the first two books in this series, Save Me and Embrace Me), so it sounds like we will be back in this world again.

Title: Complete Me
Author: Beck Grey
Series: Love in the Pacific Northwest
MC: Bjorn (MMC), Xander (MMC), Kaino (XMC)
Setting: Seattle
Genres: MMX Contemporary Romance, LGBTQ+ Romance
Tropes: Opposites Attract, Second Chance, Golden Retriever, Kink
Triggers: Parental Death, mentioned past stabbing, bigoted views
Epilogue: Yes
Synopsis: After a near-death experience, Bjorn finds himself reconnecting with his past in unexpected ways. As he recovers in the hospital from a stabbing, he's visited by Kaino and Xander, two former lovers who have each left a lasting impact on his life. What started as casual reunions quickly deepens when Kaino and Xander cross paths again later and begin considering the possibility of starting something together with Bjorn included. The trio tentatively begin to explore a polyamorous relationship, navigating the complexities of their pasts, personal boundaries, and the dynamics of a modern throuple. From volunteering together at an animal shelter to intimate conversations over coffee, they each find themselves drawn closer, confronting their fears and insecurities along the way. As their relationship deepens, they face external challenges, including societal judgments and personal doubts, but their bond only grows stronger. With each step, they redefine what love and commitment mean to them, culminating in a heartfelt acceptance of their unique connection.
Thoughts: I like Kaino’s direct and candid approach to people. They have clear boundaries and sticks to them. I like how Bjorn just wants the best for everyone and for them to be happy. He’s very sweet, a true caretaker, despite his sometimes overbearing ways. I love his dad jokes too; they are quite endearing. I like how Xander is confident, but also insecure. He has many layers, like most people, which makes his character relatable. This was a story of self discovery on multiple levels. Navigating relationships with not only partners, but family, and with oneself too. Being able to still discover different aspects of yourself, accepting it, then embracing it, so that others may do the same in order to support you. Bjorn, Kaino, and Xander were also able to identify each others’ strengths and weaknesses. With their astute observations, each was able to provide what the other needed to thrive. For example, Xander's need for praise, Bjorn’s need of letting go of control, and Kaino’s need of clear boundaries. I was originally worried in the beginning because Xander and Kaino both had moments of jealousy. But after spending time together and having open communication, they moved past those negative feelings and thankfully it led to them both being with Bjorn. I have to say out of all the stories with poly relationships I've read, this book has stood out to me. It seems like the most realistic relationship with multiple partners. The conversations about the trio's relationship, group dynamics, and the actual negative feelings were refreshing. I feel like talking about jealousy and the practicality of life outside of home are often glossed over. Any healthy relationship requires open communication, and I was glad Kaino made Bjorn and Xander sit down and seriously discuss what they were feeling in each moment together and apart. I'm so happy our three main characters were able to find happiness together after struggling being on their own. They each deserve to feel love with their flaws and all.

Loved seeing all the characters friends and family come together and the poly and nonbinary rep was impeccable.

'We have unique and wildly different ways of living our lives', 'underneath, we're fundamentally the same'.
Oh, how the world needs to read this book!
This whole story is a testament to what the world could be if we really did all treat each other as we wish to be treated, and practised a little self-reflection.
I've loved all of the Love in the Pacific Northwest series, and I hold a special place in my heart for Tadhg and Quinn's story (Embrace Me) for the beautiful depiction of deaf life and a deaf/hearing relationship. I didn't think anything could top it. I was wrong.
Bjorn has been a constant throughout most of the series, and the series is so wonderfully diverse, I didn't think there was anything left to explore for his character. I was wrong, again.
I am drawn to character-led stories; I need to know the characters like they live and breathe - and I am never disappointed by Beck's writing. There wasn't a minute of this book that I wasn't thoroughly enraptured with every single character, all of whom were given time and page space to fully come to life. Nothing was implied about any of the main 3 characters - they were brought into glorious technicolour through their inner monologues and deep conversations. And I loved them all.
I'm also drawn to stories which represent parts of diversity we don't see often enough in books - trans characters, enby characters, characters with disabilities etc - so, Kaino, *chef's kiss*. They are the queer, kinky, quirky representation I've always needed, and the model of being clear, concise and honest about who we are and what we need I hope to be more like, and I'm so grateful they exist so beautifully in this story.
One of those books that's gotten thoroughly under my skin, and I will wish I could read for the first time, every time.

This is the sixth and final book of this magnificent series, I’m sad to let it go! This is a standalone but you might enjoy it better if you read the others before, to have the back stories on all the characters involved. This is the story of Bjorn Osouf, Xander Neilsen and Kaino Nieminen.
Bjorn, a cop with PTSD, Kaino, a demisexual, and Xander, the intellectual, each with their struggles and different reality. I think it’s their differences that makes them work so well together on a romantic level. There is a lot of relationship development, all done exceptionally well as the author is really respectful of human differences. This book might not be for everyone though, so I suggest reading the trigger warnings on this one.
The ending brings the story to a full circle as we revisit some of the earlier book’s characters to know hoe they are doing in life. Gary did a really great job with the narration as always.
I received an advance review copy of the audiobook for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Second reading *audiobook
I loved this novel so was excited to hear Gary Furlong bring these characters to life in the audiobook. Once again he does a great job and I really enjoyed listening to it. I did occasionally find it hard to differentiate who was speaking and had to listen for clues to figure out which character's chapter it was but otherwise it was a 5 ⭐ listen.
I loved this final book in this fabulous series but I'm sad to say goodbye to all these wonderful characters.
Bjorn has been a constant character throughout and it was so good to see him finally find his HEA, not with one person but with two, none of whom had ever contemplated a polyamorous relationship when Kaino and Xander reconnect with Bjorn and in turn get to know each other it is clear there is something between them all, something they all want to explore together. For three people with such different personalities, they all fit together like perfectly formed puzzle pieces.
I loved the way Beck Grey opened up the dialogue between these three, how they made sure everyone was on board and were clear about what they did and didn't want. The communication between them was wonderful and set the tone for their relationship going forward.
I enjoyed seeing Bjorn and his brother Gunnar continue working on their relationship. Though it wasn't always smooth sailing, both continually tried hard to build their relationship into something strong, determined not to return to the way it was.
The whole family and their partners were all something special and it has been wonderful getting to know them throughout these 6 books. I can't wait to see what Beck Grey writes next.

Outstanding. That is the first word that comes to mind when I think about this story. There are many more and I will. endeavour to use them in this review. First a few serious words: this book could be triggering, please do read the authors trigger notes; this book is part of a series. You don't have to read the other books first but many of the references make more sense if you have.
Now to my review of an outstanding book. A complex story that couldn't have been straightforward to write. One that has many threads which Beck Grey manages to keep from tangling, rather like the ropes that Kaino is so fond of and his lovers come to enjoy too. These threads are important to the story, they bring many important thoughts together yet they are gentle, almost tender underneath their apparent harshness. I don't think I will look at rope in the same way again but then neither will I be able to think about garlic bread without thinking about Gays in the Park... Trust me it is one of the most bizzare ideas but it works and it is a breathtaking scene in the story!
Now, more about this story. The sixth book in the Love in the Pacific Northwest series, this is Bjorn's story. If you have been following the books then you may have heard him mentioned. He is Astrid, Erik and Gunnar's older brother. A policeman who willingly took a knife to his side to save a stranger. That of course meant hospitalization and that is where we first meet him. With his brother, and Jules (Erik's fiancee). There are other family members who come in and out but it is Kaino and Xander who make the biggest impact. Both are ex lovers, both heard about how Bjorn nearly died and so have come to visit. What none of them expect is the way in which Bjorn's near-death experience is going to change all their lives.
His life will change as an MXM relationship develops. The bond, which in the past has been tense, with his family will strengthen, they will all find themselves mending certain bridges, bringing characters from past stories into play and showing us what a strong support group, family group, friendship group they all have. And, we must not forget Bjorn's beautiful dog Pita, her role in the story is equally important to the roles played by all the humans.
I have read stories with non binary characters. One of the stories in this series in face, but never a story with an MXM relationship and not only does Beck Grey introduce this concept, alongside the idea of polyamory but it is done without judgment, without any sense of the reader needing to be fully aware of the dynamics and with the utmost care and tenderness. Yes, this is an erotic story and those scenes are seriously hot, but this is also a story that helps characters and readers understand how relationships such as this one, can work. How they do work but how, as with any relationship, patience, understanding, being a good listener, they are all equally important skills. We are encouraged to understand how important open communication is, how misleading judgement can be and how we should all aim to be ourselves, to act how we wish to act as long as we are not hurting others, in any way, in the process. The characters all have their failings. Bjorn is controlling and finds it hard to relax, Xander is needy and can get very jealous, Kaino can lack empathy but they accept and recognise their own traits, leading the reader to understand them and sit back to look at themselves too.
Outstanding is the word that comes to mind when I want to describe this story and yet somehow that doesn't feel like enough. This story was not only a fantastic book to read but, for me, an important one too. The whole series has been and it has given me an incredible opportunity to remind myself that I am human, I am me, I should celebrate me. Thank you Beck Grey for delivering another outstanding, thought-provoking, absolutely beautiful book.
Merged review:
AUDIOBOOK REVIEW. I began my relationship with this story, for that it what I am calling it, so attached have I become to it, some months ago when I read it. Learning that it was coming in audiobook and would be read by the outstandingly talented Gary Furlong who has, incidentally narrated all the books in this series, then of course I was going to be listening!
There is something very soothing about listening to Gary read, he is gentle, has a wonderful intonation and apparently without having to force the sound he can ensure that each of the characters is given the distinct personality Beck Grey created for them in their writing of this story. Add to that the fact that it is not only Bjorn, Xander and Kaino who Gary is voicing, as with all their books in this series Beck Grey ensures that the family and friends play an important role without overshadowing the principal protagonists.
And that feels a little like the wrong word, these three, their developing relationship, their relationships with others who are important to them, they are, in many ways the protagonists, this is after all their story, but it is not an angsty story, there are no dangerous moments yet these three are at the forefront of everything that happens. We laugh with them, learn with them and travel an amazing journey with them. For all three polyamory is new, we dive into it with them, for them as individuals it is a little different. Bjorn is learning to let go, to think of himself and stop trying to control others even though it comes from a place of love. Xander is trying to recognise when he becomes too needy, he wants to be more trusting and it is fascinating to listen to his character develop under Kaino's guidance. And Kaino is perhaps the biggest surprise, to themselves as well as us, in their gradual acceptance of the relationship and especially of touch. Gary is gentle with these characters but still ensures we know they are serious people, this is a serious exploration of something new. He manages to infuse so much love and care into the story, balancing it with some fantastically funny moments and of my goodness the steam!
I had to give myself a break after some of the scenes, they are simply so hot and Gary's narration along with beck's descriptive writing is enough to send anyone into a state of swoon! I didn't break for long. I may be familiar with the story from reading it but listening to it brings an entirely new dimension and has had me hooked all over again. Complete Me does just that and it, along with the series are firm favourites that I will be coming back to many, many times.
And now my review of the physical book!
PRINT BOOK REVIEW. A complex story with many threads which Beck Grey manages to keep from tangling, rather like the ropes that Kaino is so fond of and his lovers come to enjoy too.

I don't think I will look at rope in the same way again but then neither will I be able to think about garlic bread without thinking about Gays in the Park... Trust me it is one of the most bizzare ideas but it works and it is a breathtaking scene in the story!
Kaino and Xander star in this book, along with Bjorn. All are about to embark on a journey into the unknown with an MXM relationship. The bond, which in the past has been tense, with his family will strengthen, bringing characters from past stories into play and showing us what a strong support group, family group, friendship group they all have. And, we must not forget Bjorn's beautiful dog whose role in the story is equally important to the roles played by all the humans.
Beck Grey introduces us to polyamory without judgment, without any sense of the reader needing to be fully aware of the dynamics and with the utmost care and tenderness. Yes, this is an erotic story and those scenes are seriously hot, but it helps characters and readers understand how relationships can work - as with any relationship, patience, understanding, being a good listener. We are encouraged to understand how important open communication is, how misleading judgement can be and how we should all aim to be ourselves, to act how we wish to act as long as we are not hurting others, in any way, in the process.

AUDIOBOOK REVIEW. I began my relationship with this story, for that it what I am calling it, so attached have I become to it, some months ago when I read it. Learning that it was coming in audiobook and would be read by the outstandingly talented Gary Furlong who has, incidentally narrated all the books in this series, then of course I was going to be listening!
There is something very soothing about listening to Gary read, he is gentle, has a wonderful intonation and apparently without having to force the sound he can ensure that each of the characters is given the distinct personality Beck Grey created for them in their writing of this story. Add to that the fact that it is not only Bjorn, Xander and Kaino who Gary is voicing, as with all their books in this series Beck Grey ensures that the family and friends play an important role without overshadowing the principal protagonists.
And that feels a little like the wrong word, these three, their developing relationship, their relationships with others who are important to them, they are, in many ways the protagonists, this is after all their story, but it is not an angsty story, there are no dangerous moments yet these three are at the forefront of everything that happens. We laugh with them, learn with them and travel an amazing journey with them. For all three polyamory is new, we dive into it with them, for them as individuals it is a little different. Bjorn is learning to let go, to think of himself and stop trying to control others even though it comes from a place of love. Xander is trying to recognise when he becomes too needy, he wants to be more trusting and it is fascinating to listen to his character develop under Kaino's guidance. And Kaino is perhaps the biggest surprise, to themselves as well as us, in their gradual acceptance of the relationship and especially of touch. Gary is gentle with these characters but still ensures we know they are serious people, this is a serious exploration of something new. He manages to infuse so much love and care into the story, balancing it with some fantastically funny moments and of my goodness the steam!
I had to give myself a break after some of the scenes, they are simply so hot and Gary's narration along with beck's descriptive writing is enough to send anyone into a state of swoon! I didn't break for long. I may be familiar with the story from reading it but listening to it brings an entirely new dimension and has had me hooked all over again. Complete Me does just that and it, along with the series are firm favourites that I will be coming back to many, many times.
And now my review of the physical book!
PRINT BOOK REVIEW. A complex story with many threads which Beck Grey manages to keep from tangling, rather like the ropes that Kaino is so fond of and his lovers come to enjoy too. These threads are important to the story, they bring thoughts together yet they are gentle, almost tender underneath their apparent harshness. I don't think I will look at rope in the same way again but then neither will I be able to think about garlic bread without thinking about Gays in the Park... Trust me it is one of the most bizzare ideas but it works and it is a breathtaking scene in the story!
Kaino and Xander star in this book, along with Bjorn. All are about to embark on a journey into the unknown with an MXM relationship. The bond, which in the past has been tense, with his family will strengthen, bringing characters from past stories into play and showing us what a strong support group, family group, friendship group they all have. And, we must not forget Bjorn's beautiful dog whose role in the story is equally important to the roles played by all the humans.
Beck Grey introduces us to polyamory without judgment, without any sense of the reader needing to be fully aware of the dynamics and with the utmost care and tenderness. Yes, this is an erotic story and those scenes are seriously hot, but it helps characters and readers understand how relationships can work - as with any relationship, patience, understanding, being a good listener. We are encouraged to understand how important open communication is, how misleading judgement can be and how we should all aim to be ourselves, to act how we wish to act as long as we are not hurting others, in any way, in the process. The characters all have their failings. Bjorn is controlling and finds it hard to relax, Xander is needy and can get very jealous, Kaino can lack empathy but they accept and recognise their own traits, leading the reader to understand them and sit back to look at themselves too. Outstanding is the word that comes to mind when I want to describe this story and yet somehow that doesn't feel like enough. This story was not only a fantastic book to read but, for me, an important one too. The whole series has been and it has given me an incredible opportunity to remind myself that I am human, I am me, I should celebrate me. Thank you Beck Grey for delivering another outstanding, thought-provoking, absolutely beautiful book.

The throuple dynamic in this story is so beautiful! I loved reading about each of our MCs. Bjorn, with his golden retriever attitude and dad-like control issues. Xander, with his professorial seriousness combined with his shy need for praise. And Kaino, by far the most intriguing of the three; they really rounded out the group and brought an element of sanity to what could have otherwise been an overly crazy crew.
I appreciate how well the POVs were spread out in this book. It really helped show that just because Xander & Kaino had each known Bjorn in the past, there was no reason for the two of them to avoid one another, even if they initially saw the other as competition.
Kaino's part of the story also really educated me a bit more on the variety of non-binary individuals. I knew there was a lot of information out there, but it's really nice to see it put in a story this way. Kaino really was a fascinating character.
I've seen/heard of several Beck Grey stories that I've added to my TBR, but admittedly this is the first one I've had the pleasure to read. I know I will need to look into more of their stories. I really enjoyed the way this particular story was put together. It was easy to read, wonderful to imagine, and an incredibly creative way to present a trio of individuals in a relationship.
I received an advance copy of this book and am volunteering my honest review. (August 2024)
Audiobook Update (Feb 2025):
Narrated by Gary Furlong
The audiobook elevates the level of Dad jokes to a much more hilarious level. 🤣 You can only create your own comedic timing when reading an e-book, so Gary's timing for Bjorn's jokes (and Xander's moaning responses) was spot on.
This is the first audiobook I've enjoyed from Gary Furlong, and he does a fantastic job with the subtle differences between the characters' voices! I knew when Kaino was speaking with just that subtle hint of deeper huskiness than the others. And while Bjorn & Xander's voices were slightly closer in sound, their manner of speech made it really easy to determine. Gary was able to pull me into each of the characters' personalities and quirks as Beck wrote them, and it was an incredible listening opportunity.
I was really glad to also have had the opportunity to read and enjoy the e-book before getting the chance to experience the audiobook as the audiobook added a new level to the story I didn't know I needed. I had thoroughly enjoyed reading the antics between these three, but getting the chance to really enjoy their story with someone laying out the scene in such a manner made it far more unforgettable. I know that after I get the chance to go back through and listen to the other Love in the Pacific Northwest series, I will definitely enjoy this one again.

This is how to write a throuple! It's not always my fave, since I often feel like one third of the throuple isn't as fully integrated, but that was not the case here. In part, this may have worked so well because there was't an established couple that then brought in a 3rd person. In this case, Bjorn, a prominent side character in this series, is the common denominator who brings everyone together. Bjorn is hospitalized after receiving a severe injury. Not only do Astrid and Gunnar (the MC from book 5) come to the hospital, but so too do 2 of Bjorn's former lovers, Xander, a college professor, and Kaino, who is also connected to the university. While the choice to explore something with the three of them is not instant, it happens organically after they spend time together. Each of the throuple has some wonderful, distinct qualities and somehow - well, with a lot of communication, patience, and understanding - they end up meshing well. Bjorn is kinda corny and adorable, Xander reminds me of certain old school profs I used to work with (yes, especially with his need for praise), and Kaino - well, Kaino was fascinating and so well-written. Kaino is enby, touch averse, and brings their Shibari kink to the table and this addition was...hot. While I adore golden retrievers, Kaino is really the character that drew me in!!! And while this book is so much about communication, self-acceptance, and embracing possibilities and it's definitely an...intimate book with lots of feelings, the spice is definitely spicy!!! And onto a different kind of relationship - it was really great to see Gunnar and Bjorn working on theirs. The previous book in this series, Heal Me, was my intro to this world, and it was nice to reconnect with these characters and also to understand a bit about the dynamics going in.
This series has ended on such a strong note, but I'm glad we will see glimpses of some of these folks in a forthcoming series.
AUDIOBOOK: Gary Furlong is the narrator for this entire series and he has quickly become a fave. I admit that I was a bit worried about (mentally) juggling 3 main characters, but Kaino was pretty clear though occasionally it was more the context/personality that made me distinguish between Bjorn and Xander. Gary has such a gorgeous voice! It was always wonderful to listen to him, especially all of Bjorn's corny jokes! While the writing here doesn't need to be leveled up, the narration definitely enhanced the experience.

I received an eARC in exchange for my review - all thoughts are my own.
Bjorn has a near-death experience and winds up in the hospital. Being hailed as a hero in media, two people from Bjorn's past, Xander and Kaino, show up at the hospital to see him, hoping for the possibility of a second chance to be in Bjorn's life. After Xander and Kaino run into each other at the university, they start to explore the possibility of all three of them being together.
I really, really enjoyed the communication in this book. Since none of the characters had been in a poly relationship before, I was nervous how that aspect would play out, but it was so well done. Is there some jealousy in the beginning as they are all adjusting? Yes. But they are all so caring and open with each other and any hurt feelings are quickly discussed and resolved in a loving way.
Kaino was my favorite character - being rather touch-averse and on the ace spectrum myself, it was so nice to see that represented and how both Bjorn and Xander respected their boundaries while also making sure that they still felt included. I also love that while Kaino is not the physically affectionate type, they and Bjorn still made sure Xander got the praise and reassurance that he needed - Kaino with words, Bjorn with physical affection. Likewise, Xander gave Bjorn physical affection when he needed it. I also really enjoyed how important communication clearly was to Kaino - going over boundaries, safe words, and likes/dislikes multiple times to make sure no one ever has to do anything that they are 100% comfortable and on board with. And that I think sums up the relationship as a whole as well - making sure all three are comfortable, loved, and supported with whatever they need whether that's affection, praise, space, reassurance, etc.
I did really enjoy the family dynamics as well, with Bjorn learning slowly to let go of his control with help with meditation with Kaino, and letting his siblings grow up and make their own decisions and trying to figure out what he wants to do after his injury healed. Gunnar has come so far in this series as well and it's lovely to see.
Overall, I think this one might be my favorite in the series and I'm so sad that this is the last one. HIghly recommend.

I have a special place in my heart for books written by Beck Grey--despite my being someone who tends to read very angsty, dark romance. Beck's books are not angsty or dark, but I deeply appreciate how they write characters. Humans and relationships are widely diverse, and through Beck's characters, they approach and normalize the physical, emotional, and mental differences/challenges that can affect anyone and everyone. Book 6, the final story in the "Love in the Pacific Northwest" series, is another example of Beck's consciousness and respect for human differences and interactions. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book, and this is my honest opinion.
Bjorn, Xander, and Kaino each have their own scars and strengths--which is why they work so well together as a romantic team. There is a lot of relationship development in this book, and it is intertwined with great spice and light kink. I particularly liked how none of the partners wanted to hide their relationship, despite knowing that there would be possible push back from their families, jobs, and/or society. Admittedly, I sometimes struggled with knowing who was speaking on the page, and unfortunately, that would take me out of the story. In my opinion, the individual "voices" of each MC were not as distinctly developed as was needed for a multi-partner relationship. That said, I did really love the steady communication among the three partners, and I appreciated how Beck/their characters acknowledged and described the necessity of good communication and boundaries in a polyamorous relationship. I would also like to add that I very much appreciated the non-binary representation in this book.
Complete Me was/is a great ending to this well-rounded, low-angst series. Personally, I had been waiting for Bjorn's story from his first appearance, and I am really happy with both the resolution of Bjorn's relationship with Gunnar (and/or his family in general) and his HEA with Xander and Kaino.

This is the 6th and final book in the Complete Me: Love in the Pacific Northwest series. This book can be enjoyed as a standalone but you might find it confusing in the beginning with so many other characters mentioned. This is the story of Bjorn Osouf, Xander Neilsen and Kaino Nieminen. Bjorn is a SWAT team member and is injured in the line of duty. While in the hospital, two of his exes come to visit him, Xander and Kaino. Xander is a Professor in English Literature and is working hard to obtain tenure. Kaino is an interpreter who is working with a student who is working towards his masters at the university. Xander and Kaino have never met before. The common denominator is cheerful, dad joke cracking Bjorn. When Xander sees Kaino around the university he invites them for coffee. Xander and Kaino slowly build up a friendship. From there, they decide that they both are interested in Bjorn still. It didn't work for them individually with Bjorn, but maybe as a throuple it will. This is their story. The book is well written and easy to read. The key to success for all three of them is communication and they all work hard to ensure that everyone's opinions and wishes are taken into consideration. No one opinion is weighted more important than another. I liked how they all supported each other. Knowing that they were going against societal norms, they were prepared to fight for what made them happy. I particularly enjoyed the epilogue to give us an update on all the characters.

It takes a near-death experience for Bjorn to reprioritise his life. He needs to stop meddling in his siblings’ lives and focus on himself. Then Kaino Nieminen and Xander Neilsen walk out of his past and into his hospital room, and maybe, just maybe, the universe is finally cutting him a break. Xander lives to fill eager students’ minds with the wonder that is Dickens and Austen, to debate the merits of Shelley, and dive into the scandalous roots of the Bronte sisters’ novels. Woe betide the graduate student who doesn’t find English Literature fascinating. When Bjorn Osouf plays hero and almost gets himself killed, he takes it as his sign to reconnect. As expected, there’s still a spark between us. What he doesn't anticipate is the imminently fascinating Kaino Nieminen, or his inconvenient attraction to them. Making personal connections is a challenge. He's no introvert, but he needs time to really get to know someone, to trust them, before they’re a friend. As a non-binary, touch-averse, demisexual, it takes even longer for anything romantic to develop, and most people aren’t that patient.Only one person has cared to try. And when he almost dies, it’s the shove needed to reconnect. He finds himself in Bjorn Osouf’s hospital room, and the instant reconnection has him eager to give things one more try. Then Xander Neilsen walks in and throws a wrench into his plan.
I enjoyed this story as the three men had friendship then a relationship followed by love. I loved the care taken to describe Kaino and their limitations. I liked the focus on consent and safewords to ensure safety. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MMX story with mature content.

Complete Me. What a great way to end a series. Break out the fire extinguishers because Bjorn, Kaino, and Xander are on fire. After a near-death experience on the job, Kaino stops by for a visit to check on Bjorn. They haven’t seen each other in years, and who would’ve thought that Xander would do the same thing? The attraction was there for Kaino and Xander when they met in Bjorn’s hospital room.
Bjorn had to grow up fast and be the glue that kept the family together after their parent's deaths. He never had time for himself. Sometimes, when you meet your partner, it’s not at the right time, and life has a way of getting in your way. Now, with Bjorn’s brothers and sister all grown and out of the nest, Bjorn has time to find happiness. Bjorn and Kaino didn’t work. Kaino was always on the move with his job, and Bjorn was busy with swat. It was true for Bjorn and Xander also. They didn’t seem to work as a couple; they were on different pages in each other's books. Xander works hard for tenure, and Bjorn is busy with family and work. Now they want to try again, this time as a poly couple. With each of them needing different things, it seems to be working. The bedroom shannagings are off the charts. They now have what they did not have in the past—a solid relationship.
Beck Grey, you did a great job brining series full circle I’m sad this is the end of the of it. and thank you for writing stories in the PNW.

Beck has done it again! Complete Me is book six in the Love in the Pacific Northwest series. While it could be read as a standalone, the series is interconnected and has reappearing characters throughout. This is a low-angst, MMX, opposites attract, second chance contemporary LGBTQ+ romance with a HEA. I went the audiobook route with the fabulous narrator, Gary Furlong.
This book takes place in Seattle and follows Bjorn (MMC), Xander (MMC), and Kanio (XMC). After surviving a near-death experience, Bjorn reconnected with Xander and Kanio, who both came to visit him while he was recovering in the hospital and were also his past lovers. There are instant sparks, not only between Bjorn and his past partners but also between Xander and Kanio! They decide to explore a polyamorous relationship. The relationship isn’t without its struggles. They all have their own challenges and insecurities, not to mention external judgments that put a career at risk.
I loved their relationship and the unique dynamic each one brought to the table. They were all so accepting of each other and played to each other’s strengths. Each voice was heard in the book, and I loved that.
Gary Furlong did an excellent job narrating Complete Me (and the others). He showed depth and emotion, and during the spicy scenes, he had me blushing. It was definitely hot!

This was my first book from Beck Grey. Complete Me is the 6th book in the Love in the Pacific North West series of interconnected standalones. I have not read the other books and though I would definitely have had a deeper understanding of the relationships between the family members, it was easy to enjoy this book without that background knowledge.
I loved the development of the relationship between Bjorn, Xander and Kaino. Each had their own arc to follow, with their own foibles and issues but this was all woven together well within the creation of their relationship. I really enjoyed the communication between all three characters - a healthy, mature relationship was displayed.
There were strong themes of family, both found and biological. I loved how Bjorn’s family were part of the story. Each of the characters felt like real, well developed people, even the side characters and their additional relationships add to this.
I listened to the audiobook version of this book and Gary Furlong was an excellent narrator. He really brought the emotions to the forefront and the spicy scenes were spectacular to listen to! There were a few points where I wasn’t too sure which character was talking, but I was able to determine this through context clues and it did not take away from my enjoyment of this book.
I would recommend this book to anyone interested in found family, mature relationships and an sweet MMX relationship.

Audio review!
This audio for the last book in the Love In The Pacific Northwest series is amazing! Gary really brings the characters to life! Now that I’ve listened to the audio, I’m excited to read the ebook and hear their voices as I read.
I wish I actually knew these men and could experience their relationship unfolding in person. The communication and respect of boundaries, the patience and understanding, the work the characters have done on and for themselves, all make for an amazing relationship between the 3 men.
I was really happy to see how Bjorn and Gunnar’s relationship as brothers has evolved, as well as the relationship with the rest of his family.
Kaino’s character was written very well, and opens readers minds to all of the different ways that they can give and receive affection and love.
Xander at first seemed to be the typical professor type, but once he opened up to the relationship, you see the teddy bear inside.
The cameos of characters from previous books in the series all tied in very well. Technically I think this book could be read/listened to as a stand alone, but you’d be missing all the other amazing stories from the series (like my favourite, Free Me)!
Complete Me is just that, it’s a beautiful, well-written story, and beautiful narration, and a wonderful end to the series.

Xander at first seemed to be the typical professor type, but once he opened up to the relationship, you see the teddy bear inside.
The cameos of characters from previous books in the series all tied in very well. Technically I think this book could be read/listened to as a stand alone, but you’d be missing all the other amazing stories from the series (like my favourite, Free Me)!
Complete Me is just that, it’s a beautiful, well-written story, and beautiful narration, and a wonderful end to the series.
I received an ALC from the author, and am leaving a review voluntarily.

Book number 6 in the Love in the Pacific Coast series by Beck Grey this book is adorably sweet. It can be read as a stand alone but the other books in the series are just as great! I love these characters, how uniquely different they are, and how well they meld together. But lets get on to it with dislikes, likes, and who I recommend this book for. **Received an ALC copy for an honest review**
Dislikes:
The only real dislike I can think of is that I wanted just a tiny bit more angst. Which is absurd because I detest it. LOL. But this story was so sweet and maybe I need to sweat a little bit about the relationship. That being said.. it is more a personal gripe than an actual flaw to this book.
Likes:
There was such great communication between the three characters and they each helped each other to grow and come in to their own. The side characters are fabulous and if you've read the other books in this series there are cameos that you'll adore. Loved the demi rep and that the characters were willing to do some light shibari so Kaino would be included more physically when they were intimate together. Gary Furlong is one of my favourite narrators so that just made the book all the better!! He has a great timber to his voice and he is wonderful at switching voices between multiple characters.

The best part of reading Beck's books for me is that I always come away having experienced something new. They have a way of presenting complex characters with good souls that makes the reading space feel warm and safe. While most people are here for the spice-- and DEAR LORD, the spice is absolutely ghost pepper level-- I'm absolutely in love with Beck for giving us a demi- character who is loved for who they are and not as someone that "just needs the right lover" or has to be side-lined in the story. Kaino is perfect for this story and presents a human who is more than capable of love and is worthy of love, completely. Complete Me also hits just the right notes for me as a story about family-- both found and born. The work done with the sibling relationships is magnificent, even if you haven't read the other books! Bjorn is possible one of my most favorite characters in this series (tops will always be Stef!) with his dad jokes and loving overbearingness-- we all know someone like this: something we have to tell to back off and hug them at the same time. Finally, Xander's parents gave me so much hope. I laughed out loud while listening to this book (shout out to Gary Furlong- WOW!) and I wept at the tenderness of both romantic love and the love of family and friendship. This is a whole-hearted 5-star for me.

I’m always sad to see a good series end, and while I’ll miss these characters and their stories, I know we’ll see them again in the next one. It’s a comfort.
There were a lot of really sweet moments in this one, and I loved seeing Bjorn finally get himself settled and healing and loved-up. I feel like we waited a long time for him to get the same happiness and contentment that his siblings all found.
The corny jokes and the aprons were also fantastic, and the nod to real events held in the area. That upped the realism and believability in a good way.
And while I enjoyed the ending of this part of the universe, I wish we could’ve gotten a little peak at the end for all of the couples. I’m sure we’ll see more of Jamie and Ash and Quinn and Tadhg sooner rather than later, though, so I’m holding on to that. I also miss Blake and Stef.
And Bill and Duncan. I never got enough of them and I’ll forever pout about it. Bill is my eternal most favourite and you can’t change my mind, so.
4/5. Not everything worked for me, but that’s par for the course. As usual, it’s on me, not the book, so it’s not worth getting into it. I’ll see y’all around for the next series!

Complete Me by Beck Grey is the sixth and last book in the Love in the Pacific Northwest series. It is an excellent ending to the it, in which Bjorn finally has his HEA. I have loved each book in this series and Eric and Jules, from Choose Me, are still my favourites.
Bjorn is Erik, Gunnar and Astrid’s older brother. After their parent’s death when he was quite young, and as the older brother, he took the role of caretaker for all his siblings. Because of this, and his controlling behaviour, he didn’t have the best relationship with Gunnar. We’ve seen pieces of him in the previous books, but in this one we get to know him and love him deeply.
He’s a policeman, in the SWAT. He’s stabbed and hospitalized due to the severity of his injuries. Enter Xander and Kaino, two Bjorn exes, who visit him at the hospital and whom still he has feelings for. Is it then that everything changes for the three of them, initiating an MXM relationship.
I usually don’t read books with polyamorous relationships and I wasn’t sure if I was going to like Complete Me, but Beck amazingly shows how a poly relationship can work with care and respect. Each of the characters bring something unique to their relationship and I loved watching how they all fit together. Communication, trust and healing are important themes in the story and in their relationship.
And what to say about Pita, as someone who loves books where dogs play a significant role, I completely fell for Pita. It’s awesome how his presence is special to every member of the family, especially Bjorn and Jules, whom he helps manage his anxiety.

Two exes and a near-death experience. Turns out it’s the right time for love.
Bjorn has always been intriguing. I’m always drawn to the ones who have sacrificed themselves for their loved ones and then struggle with feeling like they are being left behind. Breaks my heart, even if his display of love is at times overbearing.
When he winds up in hospital and both his exes come to visit, he’s not the only one feeling things. All three have struggled to find the one, but the more time they each spend together, the more they realize the solution may be in not choosing.
It’s a unique story. A cop with PTSD and anxiety, and a fear of not being enough, an interpreter who is a touch-adverse demisexual, and a professor who craves attention. All together they make each other whole and fill their hearts
It’s as beautiful as it is hot, and there is a lot of healing along the way that will warm your heart. I’m so glad Bjorn found his people.

I am blown away by this series. This story is amazing. Gary Furlong should narrate every book. Bjorn's story was a long time coming and I am so glad I got to read his happily ever after. I loved that it was a second second chance. Both Kaino and Xander had dated Bjorn in the past and the timing just wasn't right. After a near fatal incident on the job, both go to see Bjorn in the hospital. All three are drawn to each other, including Kaino and Xander who had just met. Navigating their relationship and how that should look was presented in a realistic and beautiful manner. Poly relationships require a lot of communication, and even when Xander was feeling a little left out and jealous the communication among the three of them was amazing. Very adult and responsible. Refreshing.
Gary Furlong is a very gifted narrator and I love that he doesn't just read the story but brings life to each of the characters. Everyone has their own voice and it is easy to tell who is speaking at any given time. By the end of the audio it really seems like the story may have connected with Gary personally as his wonderful narration got even better.
If you haven't read this series I highly recommend it and the audio is just perfect.

After being injured in the line of duty, Bjorn is recovering in the hospital when two men from his past come crashing back into it. Kaino, a sweet, non-binary person who dated Bjorn a few years prior, and Xander, a man who was also in a relationship with Bjorn previously. The three men begin chatting and spending time together on coffee outings and at an animal rescue centers, to name a few places. They get along well, and discover more about one another over the course of several months.
They decide to give a poly relationship a go, and discuss the ins and outs of how to start said relationship.
As Xander struggles with his Dean being against his tenure application, Kaino and Bjorn band together to hold him up, giving him a night to remember.
These three people develop a closer bond, and I love how Beck writes these characters. I love that Kaino is bossy, Xander is bratty, and Bjorn is the “sexy arm candy”. The effort these three put into their relationship is admirable. I love how Grey created each of these characters to be independent, yet perfect to be together. They fit seamlessly into one another’s lives. They are indeed a lovely throuple, and I adore their partnership.
Grey delivers another banger in this series! 5 🌟

Fascinating story! I wish I had read the earlier books in the series, and that I could have read this in print instead of ebook: it's a weakness of mine that I sometimes have trouble keeping track of things when I read an ebook, and it's not as easy to page back and forth to check things. Having admitted to that, I can say that I did finally sort all the characters in my head, and I enjoyed seeing the relationship among Bjorn, Kaino, and Xander develop. This story was also very enlightening for me, since all the communicating and explaining that the three main characters needed to do to develop their relationship involves a world I would only learn about in fiction or by asking really nosy questions of people whose answer would rightly be "none of your business!". Beck Grey has written an amazing, detailed, believable, convincing story with great wit and energy that kept my interest all the way to the end. I'll be reading the rest of the series soon to fill in the rest of the story.

Wow, this is way you complete a series. Every story and couple is so unique but Bjorn has been this figure that was woven seamlessly through everyone's lives. He loves hard but cannot fathom falling in love that deeply with someone. Family is the ultimate ally but when a near death experience occurs, Bjorn has a reunion of epic proportions with not one but two blasts from the past and their eyes have all locked in together. Now is not the time to back off but rather lock in and hold on tighter than ever. This is was my first MXM story and if I am being honest I thought the pronouns would make it confusing in a triad setting but it was truly easy once I was a few chapters in it was easy to distinguish. Kaino and Xander work hard to ensure the love for a Bjorn extends through all parties and they accommodate preferences that have often made relationships difficult. Beck Grey does an awesome job of creating beautiful individuals who become 1 amazing triad. That doesn't mean it's always easy but it is always hot.

4.5 ⭐️
Complete Me is an utterly charming story of second chances and a throuple balancing each other perfectly.
As the eldest Osouf sibling, Bjorn has been there in the previous books of his siblings' stories. Now, the defacto parent of the family has his siblings leave the nest, but a life-threatening injury brings two old flames back into his life.
I loved the way Kaino, Xander, and Bjorn balanced each other. Kaino, the touch averse demisexual rope top Dom. Bjorn, the caregiver whose obsession with control is rooted in anxiety. And Xander, the insecure, and often needy, intellectual.
A lot of the characters from previous books make appearances.
In this, you'll find:
💚MMX Contemporary Romance
💚1st person POV, 3 POVs
💚Former SWAT officer, recovering from a near-fatal stabbing
💚Non-binary ASL Intepreter
💚English literature College Professor
💚A touch averse, demisexual, rope top Dom
💚Second chance love
💚Low angst
💚Shibari
💚Pet names
💚Bigoted colleague
💚Orphaned (now adult) siblings
💚Secondary character with a severe anxiety disorder
💚Secondary character with PTSD
💚A HEA

I listened to the audio on this as part of the ALC team
First - the narrator, I love how Gary Furlong reads Beck's books. He really gets into the characters, and I feel like the actual characters are speaking. He gives each their own voice and intonation.
This book was VERY low angst
It is the end of a series and although it can be read as a standalone, there are numerous mentions of characters from previous books in this series - so if possible, I recommend reading those first
This book is about a polyamorist relationship, specifically MMX, please be sure to read trigger warnings (I have also noticed how in depth Beck's trigger warnings, which I think is great)
Each character is given their own time and space to develop as well as the dynamic that they give to the relationship. No third act breakup, no relationship drama, just a really sweet love story between 3 consenting adults. There is so much respect, consideration and understanding given to one another. The story has a decent level of spice and kink. 2 of the 3 MC's were introduced in earlier books in this series

Audiobook review:
This book is in a series that follows a friend group and family members who are interconnected. There is one family of three brothers and one sister, another pair of brothers and various people in their orbits who work together, are childhood friends or have become friends through interconnections. In the series (encompassing around 5 books) there is good representation of people who use ASL, someone with very difficult anxiety, grief over the death of family member, parental rejection, non-binary people (at least two) and PTSD. So if you are looking for books with those reps, this is a great series.
This particular book had a lot going on. It picks up where the last book ended or at least overlaps a bit. Besides mentions/appearances of the couples from the previous books and story arcs wrapping up from those, it revolves around a group of 3: How they find each other, recognize their mutual attractions (more believable because two of them have previously dated the third in the past) and then how they navigate the ins and outs of a relationship and the predictable issues that arise, including issues with jobs and how society views unconventional groupings like this one.
As far as angst goes, these characters communicate well, are truthful and thoughtful with one another. They were distinctly different people and it wasn’t hard to remember who was narrating.
This audiobook narrator does an amazing job with every book. I am never disappointed with his work.

This was a sweet ending to the Love in the Pacific Northwest series, and I'm looking forward to more from the author!
Bjorn has been an uptight father figure looming in the background for much of the series, and it was really nice to see him get his happy ending. I was excited to get to Kaino (Tadhg's ASL interpreter from book 2) and see a happy ending for them as well. Xander, though new to the books and possessing traits I personally don't love, was also really fun to get to know.
I appreciated this book's take on polyamory, with all three main characters never having tried it before, and also with them each having their own unique relationship with each other in addition to the dynamic the three have together. I especially loved how these characters really respected each other's needs and wants, treating them as an important facet of someone they love, rather than a flaw.
Overall, I enjoyed this book and found it a nice way to wrap up the series!
