Forever With You
Clementine joins Ward in London, where she stays at his townhouse for a week. During her stay, she meets an unexpected guest while Ward is at work, and it creates an awkward situation.
Slade confronts Trinity about their situation, and an angry argument breaks out. Slade says he’s given Trinity everything he has and marriage is just a meaningless piece of paper. Trinity feels differently, and their argument continues indefinitely. How will they resolve their fight?
Arsen works at the shop until Ryan finally decides he’s ready to manage it on his own. Reluctant at first, he eventually takes control and realizes he can handle the business. That leaves one step in his plan. He has to see his daughter and get her back into his life. But will it be so easy?
Cayson and Skye feel tense since Slade and Trinity are dealing with their relationship. They want to help, but they don’t know how to intervene.

So as to not get into any spoilers, I just want to post my thoughts on the overall series.
It’s a little overwhelming in general with so many couples and storylines going on. And to be honest, I’m trying not to get too invested in the newer couples because (like I’ve said before) there are FIFTY-ONE books in the series. I just don’t think I can handle being overwhelmed for that long.
I wish the author would’ve given each couple a book or two as their storyline and even feature them in future books because I really enjoy most of the couples and even some of the angst that’s in the stories.
I’m really impressed with all the in depth details that the characters possess and the drama they have endured and/or go through.
This is the last book (#14) in the second box set and I think I may be done (for now?). I don’t know why I have such an aversion to reading such a long series but I do know that my TBR has taken a big, BIG hit unfortunately. Who knows…maybe I’ll pick them up again sometime.
I will be sad not to know more about Slade and Trinity and Arsen and Silke so maybe I’ll just take a break. 😉

I am still interested in this series, I love Arsen, he has worked so hard. I think he and Ryan are two special people. I wish there were more people like Ryan in the world.
Not sure when Ryan will let Arsen see Silke. Now on to # 15.

I hate Trinity
So I'm feeling this heartbreak all over again with Slade and Trinity like I did with Skye and Cayson. I hated Skye because I felt like she had other options. Her business was waiting for her any time, and she shouldn't have lied to get Cayson to go to his dream school for him just to leave the school. Then I hated Cayson for that. Especially when you come from nothing and put in hard work to get where you are just to throw it all away for some stupid stuck-up girl.
That's what Trinity is. A stuck-up, entitled bitch. There is NO reason her and Slade can't compromise. She was sooo stupid thinking she could change him. Then she cornered him, trying to force him to marry him. Then when he says fine, I'll just deal with it she isn't happy. But I feel she got what she deserved. She was selfish in thinking only about herself. What did the brat expect when she pushed him to make an ultimatum? Then, when he came to her later expressing how he felt, she got upset. I'm pissed off 3 people just tell Slade to suck it up and marry her. Clearly, she is just as immature with her behavior that i don't feel she is really ready. She just wants all eyes on her and doesn't care about anyone's feelings but her own.
How dare everyone say Slade is to blame. Trinity was a fool thinking he was purposing and was even bigger of a fool for killing what they had and now giving Slade an ultimatum. Slade was a jackass, but I never disliked him. Trinity has rubbed me the wrong way since I first met her character. I feel like she is more of a spoiled brat than Skye. And Skye is a huge spoiled brat.
The men in these books put in more perspective how it probably is in reality. The females are actually the bigger asses. They are entitled, spoiled, selfish brats. Trinity needs to stop acting like hot shit. She needs to look at the bigger picture. The future, not just the here and now. I would like to know if Ms. Prissy is willing to give up her career for a while to pop out kids??? Because she needs to have a nice long MATURE talk with Slade. Because this started off as a fling and grew into more, I think she just thought she could have her way. But like most relationships fake or real like, nobody wants to fucking communicate!!! Slade was honest from the beginning. So nobody can really fault him. And if he's scared, then Trinity should be helping to push him in a good way, NOT giving him an ultimatum!!! When that happens, there is the possibility of what Slade said to really happen. I'm glad she heard those words. She deser ved to be more hurt because of how she hurt him. This is what happens when you can't be adult enough to sit down and have hard conversations. I'll keep reading, and I'm sure these idiots will get back together. But I just wanted to express myself on my thoughts about this particular book. I'm hoping not just anyone reads this but the author. I'm sure as the author being a certain sex it's very easy to make the opposite sex a bad rap more than they already do.

This one has a lot of typos and weird sentences, fyi
I'll just say, I'm annoyed at the typos and how many mistakes are in here for the price and how short it is and how many books there are. The story is good and I want to sing praises to people, I never will because the editing stinks. Care enough to make it right, not just pump out a good story fast and people drop quite a bit of money for it....
Only gave it 5 stars because of what is happening with the characters and finally feeling like we are getting somewhere again in the story!! And for doing a family event!! Bout time!

Arsen and Abbey
A different kind of love...Arsen finally meets his daughter Abbey. Falling instantly in love with her! He worked so hard to change to finally be able to become a good enough person to be her dad.

Great series
This is a great series. It’s a series you don’t want to put down and buy the next book ASAP. Please read them from the beginning so you know each character and the events from each book building to the next.

By Far the best of this series
Each character has grown so much, while it pains me when they go through a break up the way Todd creates reunions make all the heart ache so worth it. A very good read!

Its been a couple of weeks since my last fix..... I was pleased to get straight on it!
Loved this installment, felt like I was catching up with old friends.
Clementine and Ward, London seems to go well, even meeting Ward's family.
Uh Oh poor Slade and Trinity, they do seem to be in a tough place, I hope they can either move on or work things out. Heartbreaking.
Skye and Carson, although piggy in the middle are really pulling out all the stops in helping their friends with their grief. Its not fair that they are only managing to snatch a few moments together.
Conrad and Beatrice, still not going well! she is upset, I get that but she really is a selfish, self-centered cow, She feels Conrad betrayed her, but she is having a really hard time coming to terms with his decision to see her father. We all knew it would come and bite him in the ass but I didn't think to this extent.
I loved how Mike is being really sympathetic with both his children, whey they both need him.
Seems Silke and Pike are doing OK, well until he shares his feelings, I can't help but think their time is limited, don't think Pike helped ease er mind and heart.
Thomas and Rome, come over as a great couple, and its quite one sided, I wonder how long Rome can g on pretending, not only to herself but to Thomas too. Great to see Theo's not giving up on having a friendship with his brother.
Arsen really has done a great job, turning his life around, and is doing a grand job. His meeting with Lydia was very one sided and very cold, and Abby's words blew me away.
Great job.

Clementine and Ward, I’ll admit at first I was wary about these two but I’m warming up to them, they are not as bad as I initially thought they would be. Ward is slowly growing on me but I still reserve judgment because I feel like he’s too good to be true. I hope Clementine doesn’t get hurt throughout all this. Ooh meeting the family, that will either end in disaster or it’ll be good, I won’t tell you which one but let’s say it was memorable.
Slade; for a clever guy, you can be really dense sometimes. It is hard to see why after falling and being truly in love with Trinity, why he wouldn’t want to progress their relationship naturally and commit to a life with her. I can see both sides of the argument, I truly hope that these two can find a way to be happy with each other. That is my hope, not sure if it’ll happen though.
Arsen, he’s making strides into being a better person and I love how much he’s trying, he’s not giving and I’m slowly thinking he will get his happy ending somewhere down the line. He has to or it will all be for nothing; I don’t want that to happen. There has to be a positive end goal aka getting Silke back into his life.
Cayson and Skye feel like they can’t help Slade or Trinity because they’re on the opposite side in terms of knowing what they want, and making sure they stay together and happy. I’m so glad I fell in love with this series, I can’t help but get emotionally invested with these characters, there is something special about it. You will get so addicted to these characters, I swear you will.

Absolutely breathtaking
I cannot even tell you how sad is that Arsen has completed school opened his business is very successful finished his GED went to college finished his college hoping to shop it's very successful he's already Paying back Ryan and he gave all of his money to his daughter that was stashed away from before. It was so breathtaking start remembering him I just wish that he would go to Silke already before she gets attached to this new guy he belongs to Silke. And Trinity is overreacting she needs to just shut up and get back with Brian

I cannot believe it has come to this. Slade and Trinity not together just seems like the world has fallen of its axis. Compared to Cayson and Skye these two are destined for each other. I have to say though Clementine and Ward`s new romance is definitely going places she never expected to go. I love seeing this new couple amidst everything happening. I am so proud as well for Arsen in how far he has come through. Cannot wat to see how he will be wth his little girl and what E.L. Todd has in store for Trinity and Slade.

Absolutely amazing.
What a book firstly Ward and Silke seemed to be going ok but still hoping she goes back to Arsen.
Oh but Trinity and Slade heartbroken!!!!! I can't believe it she was so harsh Slade told her straight at the start. Skye and Cayson have been brilliant supporting them but I hope their relationship doesn't suffer.

Ward and Clem made my day I found them so cute together, Clementine really need to give him a chance because she really want the guy but she stop all the idea to be the wife she could be to Ward.
Trinity doesn't deserve Slade clearly I'm so mad at her, you telling the guy you like his gift and after that you avoid him and burst of anger on him it's mean and selfish.
