From the moment I met Abel Gunner...I knew he was something I not only wanted, but needed. Our pasts threatened to overshadow our present, but our present promised to save our future.
Secrets had been revealed, possession has takes hold, and my dark angel will Avenge Us...his family.

I absolutely loved Gia and Abel's ending. It was everything I hoped it would be because the focus is on them and fighting their demons together. Enough has happened to them in the previous books from outside forces, so everything in their final book centering around what they've created together and tightening their bond as man/woman, sub/Dom, and finally husband and wife was absolute perfection.

I really enjoyed the duality at play of both Gia and Abel's character and the fact that they refuse to be anything less than that for each other. Gina Whitney does a fantastic job with Gia and Abel's character development, so much so, that I have such a fantastic image of the type of people they are and how their relationship is.

Gina Whitney created Abel with so much depth and complexity that his character continues to twist and bend, attempting to get at the heart of who he was...who he is as Gia helps to change him and who he will be with his Beauty and his Angel. Abel will always be the broody alpha male who demands control and submission from Gia, but Gia’s love allows him to be a contented man who only wants to protect what’s his and shower her with love and affection - things she never had while growing up.

Gia’s definitely Abel’s submissive, but she’s also his mouthy, stubborn woman who doesn’t believe she deserves what Abel gives her, but she sure as hell isn’t going to give it up. Gia gives Abel everything that she is and he does the same for her. In Avenging Us, Gia works to free herself from her past and focus on her future, which isn’t always easy for her, but with the strength that Abel gives her, she refuses to allow the darkness to bring her under again.

For Gia and Abel, when everything is said and done, it comes down to two people who want to get it right for each other because they help one another to breathe and live! Nothing can destroy them unless they allow it to, and the final book in the Rocker series proves that Gia and Abel will battle together and prove to everyone that Beauty and the Beast can have their happily ever after.

I don’t want to do my usual review here, this book deserves so much more than my “I loved this” or “MUST READ” I mean of course it’s both of those. But this not only deserves more it demands more! When we first met Abel, we met him through Gia’s eyes, he is an alpha male who dominates everyone in his life. The take no shi* type, numbing his pain. With his rock star lifestyle he commanded respect. Abel is one sexy dominating male character that you will NEVER forget.

When we met Gia she seemed to be a woman who knew what she wanted, and what she wanted was Abel. So sure of herself, maybe in the beginning she wasn’t in this for the right reasons but destiny seems to have a way of making things happen that are just simply “meant to be”. Book one ended with your heart in your throat feeling so desperately sad for Gia. In book two we weren’t sure what was going to happen, these two had been through so much seperately, you ask yourself how much more can they take? AAhhhhhh but destiny/fate has her way with these two and we end book two in a good place with them and no one could be happier. Leaving us wanting more and more is exactly what we get.

Book 3 takes us on one emotional ride. I held my tablet tightly wanting more, needing more of Abel and Gia. At times I felt like a voyeur looking in on them and I loved every minute. The chemistry between these two characters, palpable it is overwhelming at times-all consuming love and desire. And it only gets better and better with each chapter I read. Abel can make you grip your book/tablet, kick your heart rate up a notch, make you blush and need a cold shower when finished. He can also make you shed a tear and want to hold him tight. This book does NOT disappoint! Do you want more Abel and Gia? Want to know where they end up? What life has in store for them? Book 3 is an ABSOLUTE amazing end to these two, what an amazing couple. It’s not just Abel and Gia its the band members, the friends, we get sneak peeks into their individual relationships. PERFECT!! I am a huge Abel-Gia fan…..this series never disappoints. My one hope is that we get to read about the band members lives, I have questions that I would love the answers to.

Electrifying, Astounding, Stunning, Breathtaking
6+++ Star Read

Gina Whitney novel titled Avenging Us. I am a huge fan of this writer. Saving Abel sucked me in and there was no way I couldn’t forget Abel Gunner. Gina is a very talented author. She has mastered the skill of grabbing the reader where they’re not going anywhere they not only are they committed to this novel, but has to read and re-read whatever this author has written. Gina is amazing with connecting the reader to the context. You just feel for Gia and Abel like you personally know these fictional characters, in my opinion that’s is how you do it. I will also like to praise this author on her strong will. Not everyone will open up these many issues in a book and I applaud her for this. I must touch on the extremely hot sex scenes in this novel, for me they were perfect and place right in the story at the right time. Avenging Us was written amazing it flowed so well and there weren’t any errors. I highly recommend this novel to readers.

“Love myself I do. Not everything, but I love the good as well as the bad. I love my crazy lifestyle, and I love my hard discipline. I love my freedom of speech and the way my eyes get dark when I'm tired. I love that I have learned to trust people with my heart, even if it will get broken. I am proud of everything that I am and will become.”

Abel Gunner, sexy rock star/brooding Dom returns in Avenging Us, book 3 in the Rocker Series.

After having dealt with demons from their past, betrayal, mental illness, addiction and murder attempts, Abel and Gia are finally on the road to their HEA. It would seem that all of their troubles were in the past, but their world thrives in struggle. The question is will their passion, his dominance and her possessive tendencies be enough to carry them through this next chapter of their lives?

As with the previous two books in the series (Saving Abel and Forgiving Gia), Avenging Us is a powerful display of the love between a man and a woman; devotion of a Dom and his sub; and the lustful desire of a cave beast for his beauty. Gina Whitney has written a timeless love story as only she can. Her melodic writing style gives the book a rhythm and cadence that grabbed hold of me leaving me unable to put it down until the end. But even then I wanted more.

From feelings of sexual arousal to laughter and tears, this book runs the gamut of emotions. In one chapter I was heated and admittedly turned on by the sexually charged storyline. In the next I struggled to hold back the tears brought on by their painful struggle. But submitting to the story and the words of the brooding caveman, "become stronger than your struggle," I pressed on and let the emotions take me. Little gems of poetic wisdom like this are strewn throughout the book and left an indelible impression on my soul.

If you enjoy books about sexy alpha rockers and their strong beauties, Avenging Us will not disappoint. Just heed my warning and have a box or two of tissues handy to dry your tears and your seat because when the cabana's rockin, Abel and Gia come knocking. ;)

I loved Avenging Us (as i have the entire series), and I give it 5 O's for ooooo Able!

*I was given this book as a complimentary copy for an honest review, but I loved it so much I purchased it as well.

☆♡☆♡☆♡♡☆♡☆♡☆ 5 STAR REVIEW ☆♡☆♡☆♡♡☆♡☆♡☆


Abel and Gia have had a rough relationship between her mother's horrible plan and Morgana's attempt to kill Gia and their unborn child this two managed to stay together and stronger than ever.
Abel knows Gia has changed him for the better yet he knows his demons are still there and is a constant battled but having his beauty next to him he will come out victorious.

Gia on the other hand can't believe her lucky stars Abel loves her, she is expecting their first child, Medusa (her mother) stopped harassing her and Morgana is facing jail time for what she did to her. Yet she still has her own demons to battle.

Abel and Gia will face one more obstacle that will put their love to a test. Can this two mercurial couple come out victorious or will their demons win one more time?

Holy S*&% this is one wild story. I am sad to see the end of Abel and Gia's saga but couldn't had asked for a better ending. This two will keep you hot and bother until the end and lets not forget they will keep you so into the book you will read it in one sitting.

Rocker has been one explosive series but this installment takes the cake. You will become a fan of Abel and he will leave you panting with his hot sex scenes.

You don't want to miss this, if you haven't read the Rocker series then you missing one helluva books.

As with their whole relationship nothing ever comes easy for Abel and Gia. While they seem like they are in a good place, they have a lot of feelings and emotions that they need to work out, especially if they are going to become a family.

This book was about them finding peace within themselves and each other. It was a good look at where they have gone and where they are going. It was also a nice little look into the other character's lives that I have grown attached to. There was a little bit of everyone, including Chance who I wasn't sure where things were going to end up with him. It left with a lot of potential for additional books, as Gia and Abel's story comes to and.

This book seemed more reflective and poetic than the others in the series. There were a lot of feelings and emotions put into the pages, along with some laughs and seriously hot moments. There was a lot of Abel finding his center and learning how to deal when things don't always go his way. His methods of coping in the past are not the same he can use now. For Gia, while she has grown in confidence she still has to get over her past and learn that she is not longer her old self.

Avenging Us was the perfect conclusion to their story but I hope that the other's stories are forthcoming so we can see how the brooding alpha and beauty are doing down the road.

***ARC gifted to leave an honest review***

First off I was so happy when I heard we were getting another Abel & Gia book.
And this did not disappoint.
Abel & Gia are both still fighting their own demons, together & individually.
They are preparing to have their first baby.
I loved seeing Abel is full on daddy protective mode!!
And yes Abel is still his true Dom self!!! Those scenes were HOT!!!
And his Beauty, although she eagerly awaits her baby, she still has her doubts that she'll be like her own mother.
Can these two broken people find peace with each other together or will something hinder them?

I loved the scenes with all the other characters, & Ender & Jake, wow there is a story there. We need it!!!
You truly feel the family connection that these characters have with each other.
Would have loved an epilogue, but maybe we'll get a novella in the future, wink wink Gina!!!
Do not wait to experience this series, read it now.
Can't wait to read what you have next.

Avenging Us
Gina Whitney

ARC given by the author for a honest review.

Gina Whitney has made me love Abel Gunner even more in this book. I loved him in book 1 and book 2 but the 3rd instalment in the Rocker Series, shows you a completely different side to the highly dominant rocker.

He is still the dominant, filthy mouthed Alpha we all love but now that he has his "beauty" back and she is carrying his child, he shows his love for Gia so much more and he is more protective.

Both Abel & Gia have come a long way since the beginning and they are both still struggling with their pasts, but together they fight for what they want.

I am so happy that Abel & Gia get the happy ending they both clearly deserve.

Another outstanding 5 stars for the fabulous Gina Whitney and I thank you once again for giving us Abel!

Reviewed by Tracey Lou Parker for https://kindlefriendsforever.wordpress.com/

This is the third book in the Rocker Series by Gina Whitney and a book that was certainly worth waiting for. A welcome return to our two main characters. Gia and Abel.

The story continues straight off from book two with both Gia and Abel blissfully engaged and waiting the arrival of their baby. Hooray you may say; finally these two characters will have their happy ending. But will they ?
Their passion is as strong as ever, and their love for each other shone continuously throughout the book. It got to the point where I was insanely jealous and wondering if Abel had a brother with piercings and tattoos.
He was her Dom, her protector, yet both were still battling their inner demons.

The band members of Lethal Abel were still going strong and still making great music together. They could all count on each other and be supportive when needed, and the need arose when the traumatic events of Abel and Gia's baby's arrival.

Gia was unwell after the birth of her baby and spent some time in the hospital unaware of what was going on. The weirdest of dreams would enter her head leaving her wondering just what they meant. Throughout this time Abel was trying to cope with his feelings, but the craving of an old habit rose to the surface. No way in hell would he jeopardise his relationship with Gia and the responsibilities that came with being a new father. The physical and emotional support they gave to each other would see them through anything.

Finally, the preparations for another exciting event was well under way. Both Abel and Gia were at peace with themselves and each other and at last the time was right for them both to eternally commit to each other.

Gina Whitney, what can I say? Yet again you bring me a book worthy of more than five stars. My excitement for Avenging Us hitting my kindle was indescribable. Your style of writing continues to bring your books to life and your characters come together as one. A perfect match, you would say. Abel the perfect Alpha male that all the ladies want in their man. Did I mention the piercings? No I don't think I did, lol. Gia, the perfect beauty that one man craves. Yup, I'm still jealous! Thank you for a rivetingly enjoyable read. I sincerely hope this is not the last time we hear from Abel and Gia. Congratulations. You deserve it.

"Her, this, us...what I felt was strong enough, powerful enough to pull me out from inside. Sin, covered by scars. Scars, covered by ink. Damage she's vowed to love, she's begged to worship, and the cock that made her cry my name.

I've been falling every since-no...not falling. Jumping. And in front of me, it wasn't my music...but my most prized possession-my family." -Abel

I first became familiar with Gina Whitney when another favorite author participated in a collection release that she was in. I had seen her around but hadn't taken the time to read any of her books. After quickly realizing how amazing she is as a person I MADE the time to read Saving Abel. Let me just say... within the first few pages...

I WAS HOOKED!

This entire series is fantastic! I have been through every emotion while reading these amazing stories. Frustration, laughter, crying, gut-wrenching, happy, HOT, heart broken, you name it! Abel and Gia as well as the entire cast of characters that share their crazy life jump from the pages and take you on the ride of your life!

Avenging us is the spectacular conclusion to the series! But wait.... I hear rumors of plenty more to come for these rockers! Jake, Ender, Woody, Jessie, Chance, Michael, Mr. Gunner, Bella Mia, Cindy.... good gosh could it get any hotter?

Gina has an incredible talent with words. This story will stay with me for a while because of lines like this.

"If God meant the day to be perfect, he would not have invented tomorrow...So don't worry if today wasn't perfect, because you still have another."

The question is now... when can I get my next fix? When an author leaves you wanting more... that is mastery of the craft known as story telling.

"I turned, leaning my forehead against the cold door. Despair clung to me, and emptiness filled my heart. And I prayed like hell Beauty would reward me and we'd share a new life together alongside our new son or daughter. I told myself: This is exactly where you're supposed to be. So be here, now. This pain is a gift, just as your happiness will be. Find the stillness in it.

Listen. Have faith.

Learn. Rise.

Become stronger than your struggle. "

-sigh- Consider me a lifelong fangirl.

Book 3 of the rocker series and by far the best, I loved book one and Book 2 but this book just had everything for me and cemented my feelings for Abel and Gia.

Book 3 is at a time when Abel and Gia have found their rhythm, The band is riding high on their success, medusa has disappeared into the shadows, Morganna is getting her just desserts for all of her evilness and friendships are being mended, all is good for the happy couple as they look forward to the future and the arrival of their bundle.
Gina Whitney does not disappoint with this conclusion to the rocker series as we still see the trademark heat and passion between the couple as they grow together as a family unit.

Both of them still have demons to face but they have come to the point where they are united In Fighting the demons together. Abel and Gia are so in sync with each other and at this point that they almost know what the other is battling before the other knows themselves.

This book had me glowing with the love between the broody alpha and his sassy mouthed beauty, he has his perfect sub to his Dom because as much as Abel needs to have control he also needs to be challenged and boy does Gia challenge him. This couple grows together throughout the series but still stay true to who they are inside.

Be prepared though because although this story all comes together as it should it is not without a dramatic situation that will have you on the edge of your seat as well as grabbing for the Kleenex at the same time, at the end of the drama we will see Abel battle some past demons and it really made me happy to see his father help with pulling him through the darkness and back into his life with beauty and his dragonfly.

This book also gives us an insight into chance's love life as well as some surprising sex scenes involving other bad members and one incredibly hot scene in the Cabana.

This book blew me out of the water and I loved every second of it and really hope there will be more to come from this group

I gave book one and two five stars so this one needs 10.

Amazing end to an amazing series!! Great work Gina!!!!

Avenging Us is book 3 in the Rocker series and they must be read in order, it's not a standalone. We start out immediately where Forgiving Gia left off. Gia and Abel are completely in love, on their way home from holiday in Greece. Newly engaged and about to become parents for the first time. Gia tamed her rocker and Abel never thought he'd see himself settling down.

"We still had a battle ahead of us, but I knew we'd weather whatever storms came our way--together."

Both recovering from harsh pasts, Abel and Gia's relationship has been tumultuous to say the least. One thing that gets them through is their dom/sub relationship. It was no surprise to Gia in Saving Abel that she would enter this wholeheartedly. She needed her submission to be free from her demons and baggage. He needed his domination to liberate his past.

"You are my bottom line, Beauty. And I don't have to remind you that I play for keeps."

Ok. So, I've been anticipating Avenging Us since Forgiving Gia came out last October and I read it in one sitting. Gina Whitney brings the kink and hot sex in all of her books and this was no different. Warning: There is a SUPER HOT M/M/F scene and a M/M scene also. I enjoyed both thoroughly. I would have given Avenging Us a five star rating but there was one thing that bothered me and I couldn't get over. After Gia gives birth to their beautiful baby and comes home, Abel is ready to pounce on her. Good, he loves her. BUT, she had a very traumatic labor, resulting in a c-section. Even though her nether region is still in tact, there should still be a whole mess of blood and yikes all over there (I know this, I've had 2 c-sections). I don't care how obsessed Abel is with Gia. He shouldn't want to go there and she shouldn't want him to. Honestly.

So, 4.5 stars to Avenging Us. I loved it, I really did. I really cannot wait for more books in Gina's Rocker Series because the relationships that have been set up in Avenging Us for the future are going to be great!

I will start out by saying that Gina Whitney will NEVER be able write fast enough to feed my addiction to her books. I truly LOVE all of them but the Rocker series is my absolute favorite, and I will NEVER get enough of Abel.

In Avenging Us, Abel and Gia are finally off tour and getting ready to have a baby. Gia is terrified that her upbringing will make her a terrible mother. Abel can't wait to have the baby and is more protective than ever. They have been through hell and back together and are ready for some down time. Everything seems to be falling into place so Abel is pushing hard to get Gia to the alter, but once again, they are reminded nothing is ever simple in their world.

I LOVE ALL the books in this series, but I'm completely blown away by Avenging Us. In each book, Gina Whitney has brilliantly written, in detail, Abel evolving from contract relationships to a one true love relationship with Gia.
The changes were slow, painful, fearful, and realistic in both characters through the series,and I felt like I physically watched them grow up. Abel's emotions in this book, brought tears to my eyes more than once, as I went on a beautiful & intense emotional roller coaster ride. And as this is Gina Whitney, the book had explosively HOT, push the envelope, panty melting sex scenes, that I swear nearly melted my kindle. This was an EPIC finish to Abel & Gia's story, although I will NEVER stop begging for more! I could only give it 5 Stars and it wasn't enough in my opinion. Absolute perfection Gina Whitney!

Quick!! Someone better call 9-1-1 because I'm pretty sure I've killed the man and caught my kindle on fire with this book!


In the conclusion (that I'm seriously devastated it's ending) of Abel and Gia.... We take a ride into the flaming love these two have with each other. From the first page to the last... You will pant!!

I especially love this book because I feel I got more of an insight into Abel's inner turmoil and thoughts and I'm pretty sure, I felt some of the blackness that enveloped him. But, I also got to see the even kinkiest and sensual and loving part of him. This book definitely wrapped Abel up and didn't leave me wondering at all about him! I feel that Gia grew in leaps and bounds. But I especially love that the author didn't just make her go back to normal but that Gia had her own struggles. Struggles that she herself needed to overcome. So again, Gia too was complete in my eyes.


Now for the over all plot? Holy hell! Not at all what I expected, but again, this author does that to me with each book she writes. I absolutely loved the drama, the heartache, the struggle, the angst, but more importantly, the love and completion. The sex is off the charts and I will proudly admit to flash banging the man and imagining the scenes. I liked that the other characters were such an intricate part of this story but not the main part. Too often authors veer into another story whilst trying to finish another. So it's with great pleasure that I can announce that Back Off My Book Boyfriend Blog has given this 5 quacks and titled this book.... Hottest Read of 2015.....

**Received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**

I had been anticipating this 3rd book in the series for LIKE EVER! When I found out we were getting the last book I went bananas because I absolutely freaking love this series. I have to say that the ending to Gia and Abel was absolutely heartwarming and everything I expected and more.

I totally adore Abel and how he's so protective of his beauty and now that they're having a child together, he's even more overprotective. His daddy instincts are starting to kick in and he's just freaking HOT! Their love seems to keep blossoming and it's just beautiful. I love the fact that he's still his old alpha dominating self.

Gia still struggles with her demons and still encounters nightmares but Abel is always there to comfort her. They are just like the cutest freaking couple.

I loved the fact that even though he was such a player when I first started reading this series, but now he's changed drastically and we have Gia to thank for that. He's become a whole new person and he needed this change. Gia did good for him and vice versa. She's had her share of problems and secrets but Abel has been there for her too. They've both have been through their ups and downs, but they have managed to overcome those obstacles and have managed to stay together happily.

I could tell you that I absolutely -- hands down, loved this series and I'm sad that their love story has come to an end, but it was an ending that this story deserved!

Another 5 + stars for Avenging US! I love reading about Gia & Abel. Thank you Gina for continuing their story. BTW I was laughing out loud at the pickle & Peanut Butter cups scene. No I can’t say more because no spoilers here. I love that Gia & Abel are so in LOVE and that Abel protects Gia. I would say he probably over protects her but, it is because he loves Gia his “Beauty”. Abel thwarts her every move. She has to be very good with her diet and he seems to know all. Again, I can’t say more because no spoilers. Just read the book there are some very funny scenes. I love when the alpha comes out in Abel in his very male “Dom” role! Oh and the book is HOT & Steamy!

I am hoping that there will be a spin off and maybe we can read more about some of the other characters in the band oh and I WANT more about Chance! Oh Avenging Us is the third book in the Rocker series and the books should be read in order. The first book is Saving Abel and the second one is Forgiving Gia! Both VERY good books! I love this whole series.

I was given Avenging US as a complimentary copy for an honest review and honestly if I could I would give it more than 5 stars….. I LOVE this series! Oh BTW I bought the book! Because I loved this book!

I absolutely LOVED this book. I'm so happy that Gia and Abel were able to get their happy ending but of course as with everything for them its not something easily attained. I loved how protective Abel is of Gia and eventually their baby. He is such a hard ass but god he has such a sweet, loving side to him. I'm not going to get into it too much but if you loved the other two books you will love this as well. I love their relationship and can we say holy hotness sex?!? It is off the charts as always with these two.

I loved how relationships with the other band members started in this book and I can definitely see some future books out of those *wink*wink* (pretty please) I think all three of those men would make some good stories. Anyways this was another great book from Gina and I highly recommend it. I've been waiting what seems like forever and it was worth the wait. She had all my emotions going in this one. I was happy, sad, devastated, elated, angry, etc. It just pulled at my heartstrings at times. I couldn't put it down and had it done in a day. Thank you for another great Abel and Gia story. God how I wish I had a Abel.

Loved reading Avenging Us! In this book we got to see a completely different side of the characters. We see how much than have grown not just individually but as a family, how they've matured. I loved seeing a more mature side to Abel and Gia, it showed us they were more than just Rock Stars or a Rock Stars GF, they're human and as a human we all have our demons, our ups and downs and no matter what we have to deal with them in our own way. There was one moment where I thought Gina Whitney was going to have me in tears but she changed things for the good. There are a couple twists that I didnt see coming but so loved. I think there are parts in Avenging Us that everyone will relate to and some that we as humans are still learning to handle but that's life. I absolutely loved the spicey moments between Gia and Abel although there wasnt as many in book 3 as there were in the first two but you gotta think they have more responsibilities to deal with now.

5 PANTY MELTING STARS!!! Abel and Gia’s story is a beautiful thing to read. I swear I should have been better prepared to read this story! I already knew that Abel is one of the best dirty talkers out there, but he upped it a notch for this story. He could make a monk crave an orgasm! Abel has the “broody Alpha” Dom down pat. He is possessive and protective to a fault. Gia brings the sass back full force. The author threw a couple curve balls in there that had me in tears. The emotion in this story was amazing. There were a few other surprises in there that were hot as h***!!! Abel and Gia have a connection that few are lucky enough to find. The other characters have more page time in this story and left me hoping for a lot more books in this series! Some relationships are tested while others are strengthened and renewed. This author did a fantastic job with Abel and Gia and I can’t wait to see what she has in store next! I will definitely be on the lookout!

Gina Whitney totally made me love Abel for a whole new reason in this book.

We've come a long way from the first book. Both characters have evolved and molded into the people they are today.

Abel has always been a headstrong Alpha male but in this final book you see him at a deeper level.

I love how he can make Gia feel like the most precious thing in the world, when shes not feeling to great about her body, he puts her at ease, we all know that having a baby can make you feel unattractive and baby blues are the worst.
She's not only given him the most magical gift with her love, now he has another person to love unconditionally.

In this book you get to see M/M/F and M/M and by god its so erotic and written beautifully. I cant wait for everyone to read it. Gina always writes sexual scenes tastefully.

Gina's writing keeps getting better and better.

* * ARC given on behalf of obsessed by books for an honest review * *

omg what an amazing ending. we've watch Abel and Gia struggle with past demons to only dust themselves off and push forward. Gia never dreamed she would find true love and that it would turn her life upside down, Abel fell in love pretty much at first sight but thought it was just the Dom in him. They've had mountains to climb, walls to scale but they've done it together it's not been easy buts it's been fun and so worth it. I love Abel and Gia they complete each other in ways you could never imagined. it's an inspiring story of strength, growth, love and finding ones true self. I hope we get the other band members story soon. I hope this isn't the end of Lethal Abel.

This is a story about a hot and sexy Rock Star (Abel) and his "Beauty" (Gia) getting their happy ending. I thought that the previous two books were kinky but this one took it to a whole new level of kink. This book also had some emotional parts and really is truly a love story about two broken people that find each other and help each other to heal. If you want to read about a hot, sexy, dirty mouth alpha rock star and a beautiful woman with a cheeky attitude and smart mouth who like to get it on hot and heavy together with an great story, then this is the book for you. You definitely need to read book 1 and book 2 first.

Wholly sh*t batman! This was an amazing read and id give it at least 10 stars! Gina has made an amazing series out of this story with Abel and Gia!
Abel and Gia have their up and downs as everyone but I can't help but think that some of those downs are just crazy and feel for them in all the insanity! Gia is still struggling with her demons just as Abel is, but when something life changing happens it opens them both up to emotions that they have to work together on in order to deal with them!
Amazing, sexy, interesting, crazy, heartfelt and yes I cried at one point! I'm not sure it can get better then this!

I couldn't wait to read this part of Abel and Gia's story. They have been through so much and are stronger for it. They are living out their happily ever after with Gia preggo and planning their wedding. They are scorching hot together and share some over the top steamy moments. Abel is a master at the naughty talk and a delicious bossy man. I loved how they were together. He knew her so well and wanted to make every one of her dreams come true. I so enjoyed their story.

I give Avenging Us 5 hearts!

Avenging Us is the conclusion to Abel & Gia. After reading the other books in the series I looked forward to seeing how this would play out.

Though I enjoy reading more of these two, it didn't draw me in as much as the other 2 did.

It had its Wow moment but once that passed, I was needing more, was hoping for more.

I enjoyed reading Abel's POV his emotions and demons suck you in, but Gia just felt kind of lost, like her strength of her character has gotten lost somewhere between book 2&3.

5-Stars
The conclusion of Abel and Gia's story was everything and more you would expect from Gina. The depth and details of each character is amazing. In Saving Abel and Forgiving Gia everything that could happen did. Avenging is there story of how they deal and cope to be the perfect person for the other. Ultimately, being the exactly what they are and need to have their happily ever after.

Do I recommend? Absolutely
The complete series is a fantastic read. I look forward to reading more of Gina's work.

Loved it!

I read the first two books in the series again before starting Avenging Us. I loves these books! I was so glad I found Gina Whitney as an author.

This book was so in my mind that I dreamt about it. In my dream, while Abel was in the Dr. Office he was handing out copies of his lullaby cd lol!

Then while driving I heard a song Paradise by Tesla, and I thought it fit Abel and Gia and could visualize Abel singing it.

Great series of books, hot, a bit kinky, and sooooo good, I read all 3 in a week and even worked!
