Lily:

I've been such a fool. Such a fool. He saw me coming and tied me up in knots. And I let him. After Vegas, my heart and mind have been thrown into complete disarray. Is it really possible that what we had— all that blazing, unquenchable passion—was just an illusion?
I know I've lost his trust, but somehow I must find a way to repair the damage I have caused and find my way back to his heart.
I have to make it right… whatever it takes.

Jake:

She is my wife now, but I know she's not mine. Not really. Not properly. Not the way I want. You see, I want it all. Every last bit of her: heart, mind, body and soul.
And I'm prepared to move heaven and earth to make that happen. This is my mission and my promise. Watch me make her mine or die trying...

★★★★★! Eden III, part 3 of 3. Sizzling times amidst chaos for Jake Eden & Lily!

“It’s a done deal. All nine inches.”

Books in The Eden Trilogy should be read in order:
Book 1: Eden I
Book 2: Eden II
Book 3: Eden III


In Eden, part 1-2 Lily Hart aka Jewel was hired at Club Eden, an exclusive gentleman’s club much thanks to catching the eye of its owner, the infamous businessmen and alleged gangsters Jake Eden. They both had an intense attraction to each other and soon landed in bed followed by events putting Lily under Jake’s protection. But Lilly had a past set to cast shadows on their future….

Eden, part 3 opens up to the aftermath of book 2’s shocking ending. Surprisingly, instead of coming apart, both Jake and Lily fight to save what they had amidst painful flashbacks,, a set mission, conflicts of interest and dark yet to be identified forces out to hurt them It’s a whirlwind of steam, romance, suspense, lies, deceit and a twists that comes to frequent halts with everything that is sex with a well-endowed Jake Eden.

From a large gypsy family the tall, dark and very handsome Jake Eden comes with a cock tattoo. Forced to take over the family empire at age fifteen Jake blew me away starting at end of book 2.

Eight words to describe Jake: Commanding, private, broken, flawed, protective, possessive, elusive and charismatic.

 photo Ed1 he BS by sb_zps8qffylwt.gif

Seven words to describe Lily Hart, Jewel: Resourceful, broken, secretive, naïve, innocent, impressionable and desperate.

Eden III told from dual POV, is both a suspenseful and erotic journey that started as revenge and redemption but grew into so much more. The ending including an epilogue was perfect for Jake and Lily!

Excellent storytelling! Suspenseful and sexy plot! Scorching sex scenes! Panty-melting hero!

“She’s everything I’ve ever wanted.”

Eden, part 3 picks up where Eden, part 2 ended. While in the previous book we get to know Lily better, in this final installment we find out more about Jack’s past, how we became successful and how he revenged his father’s death. I have to say I really sympathized with him. In some way he was just a victim.

Now that Jack knows everything about Lily, who she really is he’s determined to keep her no matter what. He doesn’t care she lied to him. All he knows is that she’s the woman for him. They are willing to fight for their love and marriage, but they have enemies who want to destroy them. They will have to trust each other and communicate with each other in order to survive.

If in the previous book, Lily was conflicted, in this installment she knows Jack is the most important thing in her life, but she still feels guilty believing she’s betraying her brother in the worst possible way by falling in love with a man like Jack.

The story is fast-paced, suspenseful and very steamy. There are some interesting twists and turns and I have to say I didn’t expect most of them. I loved Jack in this installment. He’s so caring and loving with Lily. All he wants is to protect and be there for her. Lily’s character development in great in this final installment. She knows what she wants now and she’s the naïve young woman. Not anymore! The chemistry and the passion between Jack and Lily are again fantastically and the sex scenes so damn hot.

All in all, this was a great installment - sexy and intriguing plot, endearing character and great writing!

This third and final installment did not disappoint. I loved this series so much, and I’m so sad that I have to say goodbye to sexy, dark Jake Eden. The big finale of this amazing trilogy provides us with the closure and answers we all need.

There were many things I loved about this installment; on the top of my list would be the character development of Jake and Lily. From the previous ones, we already know that Jake is passionate, caring, dark, possessive and protective who wants to dominate everything around him. But once his past slowly unfolds in each chapter, you can’t help but sympathize with him and understand where he was coming from and how he managed to become rich via both legal and illegal businesses.

I was also pleased that Lily has grown so much since the first book in which we learn that she is haunted by memories of her brother’s death, and searching for answers. In the third book, Lily is fantastic in her own way. She finally stands up on her own and takes charge of what she deserves in her relationship with Jake and the overall secret police operation.

I loved this third book so much! Firstly the author did an amazing job in this final installment; she did great justification to the characters. I loved these two together. Their erotic bond is unique, abundant of passion, heat and ecstacy! All the final pieces of the puzzle finally come together and we get a really great epilogue which makes all the waiting and all the guessing games, worthwhile.

This is one of my favorite series of all time. It's sexy, smart, suspenseful and mysterious. The couple’s ending was good and I did enjoy the journey and would recommend. With the end of this series, I’ll definitely miss Jake Eden a lot but I’ll be looking forward to read more from Ms Georgia Le Carre.

This is the conclusion to Lily and Jakes story and it was a good one that I really enjoyed it. After the fallout from the previous book, Lily needs to decide on her priorities which have definitely changed. Jake is now the most important consideration in her life and she’s now prepared to even put herself in danger if it means his protection.

Jake as usual was a star I love this man so much he’s a definite keeper with his dirty mouth and total devotion to Lily whatever she may throw at him he gets my definite seal of approval. We finally get to see Lily open herself up and let down her high barriers finally letting Jake completely into her heart and I adore these two as a couple. I’m definitely looking forward now to reading more stories set in this world and I can definitely recommend this.

I loved it!!

This was the last book of the Eden Trilogy and it was very well written. The story development was interesting, there's a turn of events I didn't expect.

Jack Eden was as hot as in the previous 2 books. I loved everything about him.

I liked Lily in the first part of the book, in the second half she pissed me off, because she was acting stupidly naive and with her behaivor she put in risk both their lives.

But by the end everything went fine, and I understood her motives and they have their HEA.
I would have loved a longer epilogue though.

Great series, I loved it and I totally recommend it♡♡♡♡♡

Great series. I like that it managed to surprise me at times. Also I have never read a book where the hero is British gypsy. So it made the hero a like bit more unique than the typical OTT crazy alpha.

What a journey we have made..
This was a great one! It was so much better than the previous ones.
I don't really know how to explain what did it.
Maybe it was because this wasn't rushed and no more secrets coming from around the corner.
When I finished this one I was smiling not because it was done.
But because it was actually a very great ending.


Don't take my review to heart, read it yourself and then you'll know if it's the same for you.
Or if you loved it.

Amazing and amazing end for Jake and Lilly story,i m sad that is over but in the same time happy that Jake and Lilly got there HEA,the writing is phenomenal like always.Georgia can make you cry for the charachters one minute, then in next lough with them and that ability have only the greatest authors.Once you start reading you will not put it down until last page and then you will want more and more.Eden 3 is full with mystery,romance,amazing alpha hero,likeable heroine and one true love.

Eden 3 starts where Eden 2 end,after that cliffy we see that Jake and Lily are fighting to save what they have but between them are- lies, manipulative people.In the beggining we see Jake childhood and what he endured in his younger years.Lilly is torn between love for Jake and her duty but in the end she know that Jake have her heart and from that have no escape.I will not go in the details because you must read it for yourself ASAP,don't want to spoil reading for others.

That's what I call a bloody good conclusion to an amazing series. Everything just came together. Lily and Jake fight for their relationship and love. And boy, do they love one another. Smoking hot scenes... Which the author just mastered writing. Add some twists and it just makes the book even better.

As I suspected, this book was the most entertaining of the series. I liked the bit of drama with Jake's ex (although my heart hurt for Lily), the tension between Lily and Jake's mother, and the interesting twist in the plot. I did NOT see that coming. I enjoyed the connection between Jake and Lily, but I wish there was more to their story so that I could see that bond strengthen and grow.

Overall, a nice and easy read.

I absolutely loved this series!!! I'm a Prime Amazon member so I was able to read these for free, but I would have gladly paid to have read them.

This was one one of the best romantic/erotic books I've read in awhile...Jake and Lily are the perfect couple!!! If you've read the Billionaire Banker Series - you will love this too...if you haven't read that - well duh?! Get on it!!!

Georgia Le Carre - you're awesome!!!

"I wanted to call you Lotus because I looked into your big blue eyes and I felt the sheer strength and purity of your personality. Like the Lotus she can remain in filth and mire all her life but she will rise out of it clean and pure."

Can Lily really leave the grime of her past, move on through the pain of her double life and be a wife to Jake? After the cliffhanger ending of book two I could not wait to see where this enigmatic couple would take us next...from a stripper pole to the glowing lights of Vegas life with Jake Eden is certainly never dull.

Jake is man who has clawed his way out of the gutter he found himself in as a boy; forged in the pits of hell, washed in the blood of men that owed the organisation, he has through sheer determination and strength of mind become the king pin of his family. Falling for Lily could be his downfall, she could be the weakness that brings his empire to his knees but he alreadys knows...

Lily runs, runs from her guilt and her choices needing time to deal with the conflicting thoughts and feelings that Jale has stirred in her. Can he really be the man she thought he was, is he as guilty as she first thought? Her conclusions are clouded by her love but her instincts are true. Can she redeem herself, is she worthy of his love? Reconciling her past, her motivations, her grief with her new found live for Jake will be the greatest battle she has fought, can she win?

This final part to the Eden trilogy is once again beautifully crafted; with strong imagery, a hint mysticism, of something more than the eye can see, fate, destiny and lady luck...just a roll of the dice deciding who wins and who dies. I loved every page and was privileged to receive an arc. I am desperately trying not to give the plot away...suffice to say this is an amazing series, the ending does not disappoint!

An Irishman, a Scotsman and an Englishman walk into a bar...Five star read :)

“After this life is over I will seek you again, and I will find you again.”


The story picks up after the most intense cliffhanger I have ever encountered and damn, I don’t know how to react. If I will still be hurt or hot and bothered.

I like how the story takes you into a totally perspective again. You think you figured it out and you know where this will lead, and then you will be taken totally by surprise by the choices the characters make and the secrets that are still uncovered.



I love how the intensity is still there and I am as committed and invested deeply in this book still. All in all, this trilogy has been something I’ve never expected. All it was because a tatted cock and look where it took me.

“Maybe I always know from our first kiss that he was the only one who could have mended my heart.”

The final book in the Eden trilogy did not disappoint. It was gritty and raw but with a beauty and emotional depth to the writing, as I have come to expect from any of Ms Le Carre's work. I am usually good at spotting twists coming, but this one caught me out and made the finale even more special. Will Jake's mothers prophecy of Lily leading his to his death come true? There's only one way to find out, grab a copy and read it now. Great creative and sizzling hot storytelling.

From start to finish this series has been amazing and absolutely brilliant. I love the way Georgia`s books flow so fluently and her descriptive stories are memorising. Jake and Lily were made for each other. The storyline of the modern day undercover cop really draws on the imagination and the added twist towards the end makes for a fab ending.

Brilliant Final Installment
I loved reading this the third and final installment of this series. I really enjoyed the way the characters developed throughout the series. I love Jake and Lily together. I have been rooting for them this whole time, so to finally get this far, and see for better or for worse, what happens is thrilling. We get to understand Jake, and the reasons behind why he is how he is, plus the ways that he evolved with Lily. I also loved watching Lily develop as her story unfolded, and she finally decides who and how she wants to be. Will she choose Jake? Could Jake's mother be right? This series is the first time I've had the opportunity to read anything by this author, you can bet I'll be one clicking her other stuff! She has this way of spinning a tale that takes you in, keeps you on the edge if your seat, guessing what's coming, then surprising the heck out of you. I've ran the entire gambit of emotions throughout this series. I laughed a little, I shed some tears, I was angry, heartsick, surprised, and a little overheated a few times. I feel honored I was chosen to read this in advance. I was given a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is the third, and final, book in a trilogy. It must be read in order or you will never make sense of some of the best books ever written (IMO).

I have been waiting for this book; anxious to know how Jake and Lily could move on from the astonishing revelations of book two.

The dual point of view is a perfect way to show how both Jake and Lily are thinking and coping.

The coming together of these two is explosive. Georgia Le Carre does not write love scenes or sex scenes but blisteringly hot erotic episodes that left this reader very hot and bothered and somewhat breathless.

As always the writing is impeccable, the storyline cleverly crafted with enough twists and turns to keep even the die hard thriller reader captivated.

I have read all of Georgia Le Carre's books. They are all exquisite reads but I think, for the moment, Eden lll is my very favourite.

Eden book 3 picks ups right after the 2nd book and it didn't disappoint. I really loved this series by Georgia Le Carre. I loved the story of Jake and Lily and the struggle that these two went through. After getting married in Las Vegas things start out a little bumpy. Jake finds out that Lily is an undercover cop and is trying to arrest him for drug charges. Lily is in shock when Jake found out that she was a cop and she fights for her man Jake. She realizes that she is truly madly deeply in love Jake and his gangster ways. She will do everything in her power to win him back.

What a great series this was will be reading more of Georgia's other books. I highly recommend this series it is hot and steamy mixed with alpha gypsy gangster and a strong undercover cop.

Review of Eden III (The Eden Trilogy #3) by Georgia Le Carre

Review done for Hooked on Books

4 out of 5 stars

Ugly truths are coming to light in Book 3. Both Jake and Lily are in danger and they don’t know who they can trust.

Lily has seen the light and realized her love for Jake. She will do whatever she can to protect him.

Jake knows everything about Lily know and he knows that she is the one for him. He needs to protect her though.

People Lily has trusted turn out to be her enemy. When she realizes it, it is too late.

This book was a great finish to the trilogy. There was danger and the usual smoldering sex with Jake and Lily.

I wish the epilogue was a little longer but maybe we will see more of Jake and Lily in the spinoff Sexy Beast.

I recommend this series to read!
