I am glad to have finished this trilogy. The story was good, and I very much liked the relationship building. That being said, though, there were too many things going on all at the same time. I think there was just too much being thrown at everyone. The coincidence that this was all happening now is just too much to take.
We have this author, who happens to spend time on the island at this time, plus add in things with her family coming to a head. Then Simon, which also ties back in, added with her mom who actually sold her to another pack, and that's a lot of drama. But wait, there's more! There is also all the drama from the guys, too, to add to all of this. Nat's father is constantly harping about the project, Blake's sister's problems causing him to take Quinn, not to mention his what his father is doing not just to his sister but to their project, too. Dominic just cut ties with his family, and we never even got any information about Holden's family, other than they were a happy healthy family. This is just all too much to dump on a group of people, much less on the reader, too. There were times I just wanted an escape from the book that was supposed to be an escape from reality.
I did mention my peeves in the previous book's review, so no need to restate it all. I did see that the next book(s) will be about Emily. I kindof want to see her story, next. I will have to wait, though, since I won't start a story until it is done. If this is another trilogy, it will be a while. I just hope it isn't as overly complicated as this one.
I think I might recommend this trilogy to others, but it wouldn't be my first pick. There are other OV books/stories I would go to first.

Chloe has been one of my favorite heroines since book one, and Down Knot Out just cemented it. I picked this up expecting danger, drama, and a few wolf-sized surprises—but wow, this book delivered on every level.
What I loved most is how Chloe finally seemed to be on solid ground—pack, career, a sense of safety—only for everything to come crashing back with her stalker still in play and family secrets she never asked for. The tension had me flipping pages like my life depended on it. Every time I thought I knew where things were heading, L.L. Frost threw another twist that had me saying, “Well, didn’t see that coming!”
The emotional tug-of-war between past wounds and present strength hit me hard. Chloe’s struggles felt raw and real, especially when it came to facing family truths she wanted to bury. The stakes were high, the danger was chilling, and the revelations about her bloodline made my jaw drop.
If you’ve been following the Pack Alphas of Misty Pines series, you’ll love how this book raises the stakes without losing the heart of what makes the series so addictive—loyalty, love, and the fight to claim your place in a world that wants to tear you down.
Chloe is stronger than ever, and this book is easily one of my favorites in the series. Suspense, danger, and family drama wrapped up in one emotional rollercoaster—sign me up for the next one, because I need answers after that ending!.

This is the final book in Chloe’s trilogy, and all the loose ends are tied up. Thank goodness, because I dislike cliffhangers like I dislike Lima beans. Chloe finds out that she is actually a Scion of the pack clan who rejected her as a child. They are horrible people and I hope they are all forced to eat only Lima beans for dinner unto eternity. Pretty much all of the families from whence the main characters came are awful and deserve to find nothing but crumbs in their potato chip bags,
Meanwhile, Chloe goes into heat and bonds to the pack. Each of the pack men (heh) is a distinct character. I’m not crazy about Nathaniel still. And Dominic is still a reformed bully and my own favorite. Simon has been weaponized by a surprising person. Another surprise is who has been sabotaging the resort build.
Everything gets resolved but I’m not going to give spoilers except to say that the ending is happy and satisfying. A good ending to the trilogy.
MMC/FMC/MMC/MMC/MMC- Dominic, Chloe, Holden, Nathaniel, and Blake (go, Chloe! That’s a lot to have on one dance card, but our girl has totally got this.)
Triggers include attempted SA, graphic violence, kidnapping, stalking, addiction (secondary character).
Tropes include Dysfunctional Family FTW, Omegaverse, Reverse Harem, Adorable Moppet, Misfits, Reformed Bully, etc.
Medium Steam; it’s definitely not the focus of the story.

Absolutely loved this series and thought that LL Frost did an amazing job in giving you some drama along with a fantastic storyline. FMC Chloe who was an author that hid her designation and took a break to Misty Pines to recoup from her tour and deadlines that the publishers pushed on her when she stumbled upon her scent matches. This is book 3 and the finale of the series much to my dismay as I just absolutely loved all the guys Dom, Nathaniel, Holden and Blake along with niece Quinn, bestie Grady and our doggie bestie Sprinkles as he has his hero moment in this book. But just because Louie is gone doesn’t mean that the danger has been taken care of as Chloe still has a stalker after her. Someone is still sabotaging the Misty Pines construction site and going out of their way to halt or delay the remodels. There is still drama with Chloe’s mom trying to get money out of Chloe but also all the lies that Chloe didn’t even know she had been fed over the years. But top it all off with Grady being seriously injured and Chloe still feeling out of sorts with the whole scent match situation. There is some sweet moments, some hilarious banter, and worries for what else could be around the corner for Chloe….how much more can the poor girl take before she loses herself. I really hope this isn’t the end of these characters as I would love to see a little more of them

Wow, what an incredible conclusion to this three-book series! I did not see any of that coming.
Chloe, Blake, Dominic, Holden, Nathaniel, and little Quinn completely stole my heart from the very beginning. And let’s not forget the side characters Grady with his sweet bond with Quinn and unwavering loyalty, Sprinkles the gigantic dog who might as well be a pony, Kyle who ushers everyone safely to the mainland and back, and Emily the alpha who makes sure the construction crew is held accountable.
I absolutely loved watching Chloe’s growth throughout this trilogy. She evolves into such a total badass, facing challenge after challenge and always managing to rise above.
This series had me biting my nails and sitting on the edge of my seat the whole way through. The suspense, the drama, the angst, and the unraveling mystery surrounding the Mystic Pines work site were perfectly executed.

Loved this book. Chloe is starting to believe that her life with Dominic, Nathaniel, Holden and Blake is going to work when she is first summoned by the Sinclair pack and then her editor is threatening to end her contract. The men are being sabotaged during the building of the cabins and that is forcing them to find who is behind it. This book is full of drama, danger, compromises, hot chemistry and ends with a happy ending for all. I enjoyed reading the three books in this series.

Thrilling Omegaverse Romance
Ms Frost gives us the exciting, action packed conclusion to the Misty Pines series. The story builds with intense drama and suspense. The pack grows steadily through tender moments and steamy scenes. The character development is well done, especially for the main female character, Chloe. Her growth from vulnerable,and slightly broken to confident and secure is satisfying to read.

This was such a great conclusion to the series. I really enjoyed seeing Chloe grow into the strong and confident omega she should always have been. I also liked the growth of the pack. However, there's a lot of drama and suspense in this installment that had me on the edge of my seat. With sabotage, the stalker, action, drama, and hot spice this really was an exciting finale and I loved it! Can't wait for what's next by this author :D

This is a great series to read. To watch Chloe grow up with all these people against her and how she has to deal with all of them. Everyone wants something from her or someone to use her for their own gains, but Chloe perserves and shows them all she is not just an Omega. She is a very talented author. A must read for all the Omega fins out there.

This is a beautiful wrap up to the story. The reason her mother keeps trying to sell her off to a horrible pack is revealed.
Her cinamon roll man keeps lovin' on her. So does the rest of the pack. (So who do I like? Hmm wonder...) The pack works its problems out.
It is nice clean ending. The world building all flows logically. Everything works out in the end. A nice satisfying HEA.

This is the final book in the trilogy and you really must read prior books before this one. The characters get their HEA thru trials and tribulations. Well earned. Plot is nicely done and wrapped up. Thus series had some of the best world building. Very satisfying end. Thoroughly enjoyed and recommen, not only this book but the whole trilogy.
Grab a copy, kick back and enjoy!.

Good Read
I absolutely loved the conclusion to Chloe’s story. I found the story drew me in and I fell in love with the characters all over again. I also feel that this book brought a satisfying conclusion to this part of the story and I look forward to reading Emily’s story when it releases. I would recommend giving this book a read.

Book three brings so very much drama and action I feel like my jaw unhinged from going oh so much. The story shows the strength of a united, thriving pack. Bridges are built, and bridges burnt. The conclusion was an explosion of oh no they didn’t, with awe how sweet. Definitely a good book, answered what needed to be answered and tied things up neatly.

I absolutely fell in love with the Misty Pines Pack. Sorry to see it end so soon. But what and ending it was. Great read from start to finish. I love a good series, and this one has made my short list of favorites.

A really great conclusion to the trilogy. I liked how everything came together and things like side characters/problems that could have been swept away with a few paragraphs were given more room to connect with the larger story. I love Chloe and how she grows. A perfect fun read.

This entire series was a great, slow burn Omegaverse! Chloe is still being stalked by Simon, her family sucks, they are running short on time while building the resort and Quinn’s place with the pack is uncertain. There are so many variables that have to be wrapped up to get Chloe and her pack their HEA and it seems almost everyone is against it. Holden is my favorite Alpha (because I would love someone who makes me dinner every night) but the entire pack has their special qualities!
