Wow! This author did it again!
This is book two in the Girls Like Us Series. It was as much, if not more captivating than book one. This book picked up right where book one left off, but showed us so much more of the relationship and love between these three characters. Grayson, Brooks and Reagan set out to find out who is stealing money from their company. They think they have a mole within the company. Reagan is an extremely strong, smart FMC who digs around to find out who in the company they cannot trust, but as she starts revealing clues it puts her life in a lot of danger. Grayson and Brooks are bound and determined to do whatever it takes to keep their little “fawn” safe, all while trying to love her just as equally hard.
The relationship between these three grows a lot in this book, but I don’t want to spoil it for you. All I can tell you is that it is very spicy🌶️🌶️🌶️ Who will she choose or will she choose? I guess you will have to read to find out!

My friend Harley brought me to Harley just before book 1 of this series released and I fell in love. What I was NOT expecting is to love book 2 even more!
Reagan is incredible, quit wit, Intelligent and sexy as all get out.
Brooks? Secret softie, but only for Rae. Everyone else gets no nonsense guy.
Grayson? Big Daddy energy, fitting 🤭, nothing goes unnoticed
Until it does. Life has a way of destroying carefully laid plans.
I'm not a huge fan of action, but I could not stop reading at any chance I got. Everytime life called me away, I got angry.
The spice is in this book had me squirming and day dreaming! The kinks... they are definitely my flavor.
The Hunt was a freaking masterpiece all by itself! I need one for myself.
The trauma?! Broke my heart thrice over for all 3 of them.
The ending?! Immediately messaging and freaking out! This will definitely need to find it's way to my Bookshelf! No ifs, ands or buts allowed. I need it.

This book touched on some real life stuff that I didn't see coming. I don't want to get too specific with any piece of this because it's a must read.
How do you navigate a triangle-why-choose while trying to fix the inner workings of your company?
Theirs To Keep is fully Multi-POV, you're literally not missing anything in this, which I fully appreciated. There's so many moving parts with the plot line, I was concerned a detail would go missed but it absolutely does not.
Grayson, Reagan, and Brooks - their entire dynamic is incredibly captivating and even relatable in most parts.
AND THE HUNT. Dayyuummm.

I was so excited to dive into this book after reading Theirs To Hunt, and was super honored to be able to alpha read for Salem.
This one took the spice to a whole new level! But I’d argue that the new characters introduced MADE this book!
The unexpected drama turned this story into a thriller that had you on the edge of your seat the entire time. (Keeping it vague to avoid spoilers here!)
The character development was amazing, everything flowed so well and the plot was totally unexpected but great!

This book has all the feels—think a spicy Hallmark movie with a twist! Suspense, love, wholesome yet morally grey moments, and just the right amount of heat. If you haven’t read Salem Hurley yet, you’re missing out. Both of her recent releases are true “carry-it-everywhere” reads—I was flipping pages while cooking, walking, even sneaking chapters between chores. And that ending? I kept trying to swipe for more pages that weren’t there. Absolutely brilliant. ★★★★★★★★★★ (12 stars!)

Oh my GOSH. I started this book this morning, and have already finished it, because it was SO FREAKING GOOD. I laughed (cackled really), I cried several times, and I truly felt like I was having an adrenaline rush for at least half of it. These men were so loving and protective, in the most DELICIOUS way! It was the absolute perfect book to binge on my birthday. Thank you again Salem for the opportunity to read one of your ARCs!

I had the opportunity to be able to read Their’s To Keep before it was released. This is the second book in The Girls Like Us series. This was a book I was unable to put down. It follows Garrison, Brooks, and Reagan from the ending point on Their’s to Hunt. We are also introduced to new characters that I can’t wait to see what happens with there storyline. This a series that should be read in order.

I loved this one just as much as the first! Theirs to Keep picks up right where Theirs to Hunt left off, and it had me hooked all over again. Reagan, Grayson, and Brooks are pulled even deeper into danger as they try to figure out who’s targeting her...and the possibility of a mole in the company keeps the suspense high.
What I really loved was how much more layered their connection felt here. The obsession is still there, but so is the loyalty and the need to protect each other at all costs. The three of them working together...balancing secrets, trust, and desire, makes it addicting
It’s dark, thrilling, and spicy in all the right ways. The twists kept me guessing, the suspense had me on edge, and the romance? Raw, intense, and impossible to look away from. Salem Hurley delivered again, this is a must-read for anyone who loves obsessive, high-stakes romantic suspense.

Honestly, this was a great sequel to Theirs to Hunt. Salem hit it out of the ballpark with this one.
Theirs to Keep sees Brooks, Reagan, and Grayson still feeling out their relationship. Still in the early stages, they are going through some growing pains. Meanwhile, someone is still bound and determined to take Reagan out.
While the 3 of them are working out their new relationship, ex's, bombings, not to mention kidnapping, they have a lot going on.
Fast-paced, witty banter, MFM, why choose, spicy scenes and action packed, this book will have you frantically turning those pages.
Highly recommend.

I dont know why, everything in this book screams HOT & sizzling!
Now that the main characters found thier rhythm, the energy starts to shift. The chemistry is electric, but the tension skyrockets when someone else is hunting the FMC. This isn’t just about obsession anymore, it’s about protection and trust.
The author does a phenomenal job elevating the FMC this time around. She’s fiercer and sharper. She’s not just holding her own, she’s becoming the anchor for them all. And yes, that just makes her even hotter.
The MMCs become more grounded, more in control—not just for her, but also to whatever at stake. There’s a calm intensity to them that balances out the FMC’s fire, and the way they support her without trying to control her? That's hot.
The team dynamic also gets tighter. They’re essential to the story, adding depth, strategy, and emotional weight. Everyone plays a role, and that sense of unity makes the story even more compelling.
Despite the heat, suspense, and adrenaline, there are moments that feel raw, vulnerable, and so human. That emotional honesty makes the every twist and surprise hit like a punch.
Absolutely goner for this one! Grateful to be given the ARC opportunity.

Theirs to Keep - Salem Hurley
I loved book one of the series and I love book 2 even more. I love the chaos and the banter between everybody and the chemistry is just so unbelievable. Reagan, Brooks, and Greyson were fun and I’m so glad we got more of Bobbie and Devon. I also like seeing Inez’s point of view. I really enjoyed this author’s writing and I’ve loved everything I’ve read by them.

Genre/Tropes ✨ Dark Romance, Why Choose?, surprise pregnancy, found family
Favorite Character ☀️ Reagan
Favorite Line 🌟 "I minored in psych, remember? There’s this concept, emotional anchoring. It’s when your brain associates someone with intense experiences, so it forms a bond way faster than it normally would. It’s not just about how long you’ve known someone. It’s about how deeply they embedded in the feeling of it all."
“Funny how fast things change when you go from prey to partner."

I found Salem on Facebook and asked to be a beta and was accepted! I fell in love with the first book so it’s not a shocker I wanted the second ASAP! Both of these books are on my favorite book lists. There’s some smuttyness going on but he story is what got me hooked! And the way it continues and seeing everyone growing and new characters to the main characters being brought in a molding with no awkward stage. You’re going to find things you love and people you hate. Trust me!! I have made my feelings clear to Salem how I feel about certain people lol. Do I think everyone needs to read these and get invested in this series? Absofuckinglutely!! I don’t want to give spoilers but this book also ends on cliffhanger but it’s a somewhat funny one with how something unravels. If you have trigger warnings this may not be for you but for those like me completely unhinged and unbothered, this is for you!!

Oh, Salem, you did not come to play with this one you came to wreck hearts, melt Kindles, and make us question our moral compass (again).
Theirs to Keep picks up where Theirs to Hunt left off, and whew… things are hotter, darker, and twice as addictive. Think: one girl, two dangerously irresistible men, and enough tension to power a small city.
Let’s talk about Grayson and Brooks! The ultimate “ice and fire” duo. Grayson is all controlled power, smooth words, and dangerous calm. Brooks? He’s chaos wrapped in obsession, with a protective streak that’ll make your heart (and maybe other things) race. Together? They’re basically the fantasy you swore you didn’t have until now.
Our heroine? She’s done being hunted now she’s choosing them. She’s fierce, funny, and just the right amount of defiant. You can’t help but root for her as she takes control of her story (and maybe a few other things 👀).

This was the 2nd book in the duet and wow, I couldn't believe how it picked up and the emotional rollercoaster it took me on.
If I can't have a relationship like these 3 I don't want one!
I will not give spoilers, but I am addicted to this author, to this series and looking forward to the 3rd book in the series too. Just finished reading the 1st chapter preview.
All the books have continuity and this one mostly finishes the Reagan/Grayson/Brooks story.
Sooooo good. it is driving me nuts not to have a copy in hand.
So fortunate I was able to beta for Salem.

Book two in the Girls Like Us series is just as gripping if not more than the first. It picks up right where the story left off and dives even deeper into the love and chemistry between Grayson, Brooks, and Reagan.When the trio discovers someone is stealing from their company, Reagan takes the lead in finding the culprit, but her search quickly puts her in danger. Grayson and Brooks are determined to protect their “fawn” while loving her just as fiercely.It’s steamy, emotional, and full of suspense. Will she choose one of them or both?
