Part Three Love didn’t come easy for Cash and Olivia. Forever will come even harder. But true love doesn’t give up, not even when dreams are crushed and reality isn’t quite the fairy tale you expected it to be.
When Olivia married Cash Davenport, it was her dream come true. Cash was everything she wanted and everything she needed, all wrapped up in jet-black eyes and an irresistible smile. She thought since she’d finally found the ideal man, their life would play out like a fairy tale. And, for a while, it did.
Until she found out that another woman, a woman from Cash’s past, has given him the one thing that Olivia can’t—a child.
For Cash, seeing their baby growing inside his wife would only make a perfect marriage more perfect, but all he really needs for true happiness is the love of his life—Olivia. She wants to give him a child, though, and when she can’t conceive, it puts a strain on her that Cash can’t seem to alleviate. That strain explodes when Sophie Marks, Cash’s old flame, shows up at their door with a little girl in tow. A little girl she claims belongs to Cash.
After all this time, can Sophie be trusted? Or has she returned with the sole intent of destroying the only real happiness Cash has ever known.
**This is part one of a three-part serial novel. Each novella will be at least 20,000 words in length. Part two will be available July 1, 2015**
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author, M. Leighton, is a native of Ohio. She relocated to the warmer climates of the South, where she can be near the water all summer and miss the snow all winter. Possessed of an overactive imagination from early in her childhood, Michelle finally found an acceptable outlet for her fantastical visions: literary fiction. Having written over a dozen novels, these days Michelle enjoys letting her mind wander to more romantic settings with sexy Southern guys, much like the one she married and the ones you'll find in her latest books. When her thoughts aren't roaming in that direction, she'll be riding wild horses, skiing the slopes of Aspen or scuba diving with a hot rock star, all without leaving the cozy comfort of her office.
About Michelle: I love coffee and chocolate, even more so when they are combined. I'm convinced that one day they could be the basis for world peace. I also love the color red and am seriously considering dying my hair.
Finally...the last book in the installment and I was sooo happy to finally find out what all the answers would be. And even though I had some suspicions, ML definitely gave it a good ol' twist and turned things around.
And I couldn't be happier! I just love Cash and Olivia...they are one of my all time favorite couples and they have been through so much. But when ML put out that first bit, I was hooked! She is so good at emotional drama!
The ending was a-mazing...I just knew that was coming and it was so perfect! If you want to be spoiled, click on this link:
I've heard that Cash and Olivia are in "Jason's" book, Strong Enough, and I can't wait to get some updates and of course, to read more about that sexy, mysterious man!
No person. No tragedy. Nothing could break this bond...
I love how Cash and Olivia are so in love that they move, breathe, hell they exist in complete sync. They provide comfort, support, a constant partner for one another. Most importantly they value one another like nothing else! Don't forget the amazingly scorching fire they produce!
While I didn't really need this, I am beyond grateful. Three additional reads with Cash and Olivia will always be worth it even if I had to hold my breath a time or two!
Awwww...this whole series is written and captures your attention from the very start. I recommend this entire series. You will fall hard for Cash and Nash and their way they set out to find their love and happiness with their women, Olivia and Marrisa. You will laugh, get tummy tugs, smile, and angry. All you need for a good story to have. Ms. Leighton doesnt disappoint.
Loved re-reading this series. Cash and Olivia are my favs.
I had strong feeling Sophie was shady but I had no idea that it could be to that extreme. And to say that I am shocked by everything that happened is an understatement. The Davenport's really are forever. Cash and Olivia were made for each other. Now about Jason King definitely need his story and Gavin too.
Can't stop reading this book. I hope it is the conclusion of this part of their story though.
It could end with this book. It would be almost perfect. I don't really know how I feel about the whole story... I was so happy to see (read about) Cash & Olivia again. I was agreeably surprise that the easy jealousy road that I saw was not taken by the author. About Sophie, I hated her, but not as much as I thought. Mainly because of Cash .
I think I heard/read there might be 2 more installments?!? Don't know how I feel about that... Who am I kidding? More C&O, where do I sign up for it (lol)?
i've always loved cash and olivia's story. so happy for the ending! awwwwww this is cheesy as shit but i love it: “I love you.” “I love you more.” “Not possible.” “Quite possible.” “Never.” “Always.”
When I first heard about A Davenport Christmas and Always With You in the author's newsletter, I wasn't sure if I wanted to read more Cash and Olivia. Don't get me wrong, I loved their story, but I was happy with the way it ended and didn't want to see them put through additional heartache for the sake of extending their story somehow. That feeling was reinforced when I read A Davenport Christmas and saw how it ended, but I ended up giving in and tried reading the first few free installments of Always With You on Ms. Leighton's website. I found myself getting sucked back in to the sexy Mr. Davenport yet again, but I was also getting frustrated with the gaps between the posts. Even though the posts to her website were free, I am an instant gratification kinda gal, so I decided to hold off until everything had been published and just purchased the 3 novellas instead so that I could read them all at once.
Olivia and Cash have been trying to expand their family with no success. Then out of the blue Cash's ex- girlfriend Sophie shows up with a 9 year old girl in tow she claims belongs to him, throwing Olivia's world into turmoil. Always with You follows Cash, Olivia and Sophie as Cash tries to figure out the conniving Sophie's game and whether Isabella is truly his daughter. There are ups and downs, tears, laughter and smokin' sexy moments throughout it all, and we get updates on plenty of familiar faces from the Bad Boys series like Nash, Marissa, Ginger and Gavin. The stories are pretty quick reads that are packed with action and heat, and I am glad I decided to read the series after all.
Oh, and over the course of the last 2 installments, we meet the dangerous and alluring Jason King who will be the subject of Strong Enough releasing on 8/4. I can't wait to find out more about him!
This is one of my very favorite book series. I read these books a long time ago, before I wrote reviews. I know...how can I not write reviews? It was years ago, now I can not read a book without writing a review. So to make things easier on me...I am going to write one review for this series and paste in each of the books in this fantastic series, that I have read at least three times. Yes I LOVE this series that much!!!
In The Bad Boys Series, we meet Cash and Nash Davenport...holy HOTTNESS!!! These alphas will blow your mind. I won't go into great detail because I do not want to give anything away. But please take my advice...these books are absolutely fantastic. One of my top three absolute favorite series.
I am going to miss Cash & Olivia. I think this was a perfect ending for this couple. With all the struggles they faced, having Sophie trying to come between them, they deserve their HEA. Davenports stay together and their bond proofed that. M.Leighton never disappoints in an story she writes, and I am thrilled we got more of Cash & Olivia. Perfect ending to an amazing series
Such a wonderful ending! I love Cash and Olivia so much and they will forever be a favorite couple of mine. Michelle delivered again and I love that we were able to have another Cash and Olivia story. This was a great conclusion and I have loved reading along with this serial. Davenports are forever!
Ms. Leighton, please continue the story of Cash and Oliva's growing family. It would be wonderful if say you wrote a novella checking with our favorite couple coping with their adoptive daughter and raising identical twins......please, please, please.....think about it.💋
Hi, can anyone please HELP me??!! I stumbled across this series and couldn’t put it down but I can not find : part 3 anywhere 😭 I neeeeeeed it! I was even reading the reviews just to catch what happens.
I couldn't have asked for a better conclusion to this novella series. I loved every word of this novella, and was completely thrilled with the story I got and the fantastic level of emotion and feeling that I got from Olivia and Cash. This part of the story, like the others in this series, was filled with emotion and feeling, passion and love, and some serious twists and turns. All of that combined to make a story that I was completely captivated by and couldn't put down.
This final installment brings Cash and Olivia's story to a close, and once again just reminded me why I've loved their characters so much. You get into both of their heads and you just feel how deeply and truly those two love one another. This story has forced them to face something they didn't see coming, but you get the phenomenal chance to see them face that head on together in this story. Seeing and experiencing that just makes you love their characters more, and allows you to understand and fully feel how deeply they love one another.
This final installment once again has the best blend of everything to make this story one that you can't put down. It gives you more of the characters you love, more of the fantastic twists and turns, and just a taste of a new character that I can't wait to learn more about. I was just so happy reading this final part to Cash and Olivia's story because it just made me happy to see them in this story and reach that ending they both so truly deserved.
M. Leighton once again did a wonderful job of emotionally investing me in this story, and writing a story that I completely loved every word of. It was captivating and consuming and just so good to read, and M. Leighton's writing brought about a fantastic conclusion to a fabulous series. I loved everything I got to experience with Cash and Olivia in this book. It was emotional and all feeling in the best possible way, and it just made me love everything that I was reading more.
I couldn't have asked for a better ending for this story, and this third novella. It was just a fantastic read and gave me everything I was looking for with Cash and Olivia. I can't recommend these books enough. They're enrapturing, enjoyable, and just brimming with more passion and love than you can shake a stick at, so do yourself a favor and pick them up this instant!
Awe more cash, with a sprinkling of Nash thrown in.
I started reading the chapters as they were appearing on Michelle's website, but flipping life got in the way so I was delighted they were then released for kindle.
Happy to get more Cash & Olivia with everything moving along nicely, she wanted to complete their family by giving Cash a baby, heartbreaking when pregnancy doesn't happen immediately. I cannot even begin to understand that feeling, my hubby only had to look at me to get me pregnant.
Then when superbitch arrives, spoiling what was a lovely Christmas meal, all Olivia's calming nature took a hike, then her poor father has to have heart surgery, Olivia was such a trooper even though she though her world as she knew it was collapsing, Cash's love for her never faltered. They have and share a great love.
There were things amiss with Sophie, the ex and Isabella, the little girl brought back into Cash's life under the impression that she is his daughter, even looking like Cash, they firmly believe she is his daughter only causing Olivia to feel that disheartened that she wasn't the one to give Cash his first child.
I loved how Olivia was able to overcome these feelings and help Cash adjust to being a father. Cash and Olivia were/are a formidable team.
Even when the DNA clinic gets totaled, they still find a way of getting to the truth. I loved how carefree Isabella was around Cash & Olivia and became subdued around her mother.
OOH, Jason King and I gust notice he's getting his own book, hmmmm he was a hunky go-getter had ways of extracting information.
After a great weekend, Cash & Olivia get an agonising phone call, that's when they find out the truth and are left dealing with the aftermath of a conniving Sophie.
It's like there is someone shining down on Cash & Olivia all their ducks started to get into a row.
Just loved Ginger and Gavin both such great friends with a no questions attitude.
Great great news for Cash & Olivia they are dealing with a great future ahead, with a lovely family to boot. way,
I can't get enough of Cash and he really took another huge step forward in my eyes in the book!! He is just so am amazing blend of hot alpha that you will just be left in awe of him. The story picks up with Cash taking things into his hands regarding Isabella and watching him interact with her was priceless. I can only image how great of a father figure he will be in her life. The twisted factor of Sophie comes to one incredible head and you will be shocked!! I was to know so much more about the mystery man that shows up in this series......I can't wait to read his series.
Make sure to check out the link at the end of the book regarding the special announcement!!
I loved how this whole story line culminated with this novella. Questions were answered and a few surprises were even given in this final installment. Cash and Olivia overcame a lot in these novellas and found themselves on the brink of happiness. All the questions that had surrounded Sophie were finally answered and Cash and Olivia stepped up big time for Isabella. Cash and Olivia showed their devotion to each other and stood by one another without fail. Even though Olivia could have melted down throughout this series, she stayed strong. The surprise at the end was great and ended this installment wonderfully.
The third and final part to the Always With You series, was perfection from beginning to end. M Leighton always (and I mean ALWAYS!!!) catches me unaware with her wicked twists, and this story was NO different! I was most definitely not expecting that to unfold!!
I am so completely over the moon with how everything came together in this book. I finished this book with the BIGGEST grin on my face, and such a full heart. But now because I'm completely greedy, I'd love to see a novella for Cash and Nash set slightly in the future, maybe titled "Davenport Daddies" *wink wink, nudge nudge*
I have so much love for the Davenport's and I really hope we get to see them again.
C&O finally get a happy ending and it's cute that the author made up a birth announcement.
However, none of this comes without a confrontation with Sophie, a mercenary, and Jason and Gavin helping to clean up the mess.. and this is after traumatizing a young girl.
None of it made sense at the end. None of it. Not the Sophie adding herbs to O's drink and then learning she's pregnant (WTF this makes no sense given that she hated O), not the mercenary coming to kill them, none of it. And there are more questions... do Nash and Marissa have their baby? do Gaving and Ginger stay together? What's up with that relationship?
It is a long journey, three months, every Fridays (in my time zone, it’s Saturdays) I read the whole. Cash, Oliver and Isabella.
The story runs very well, even it has heartbroken time, the sad feeling of Oliver can’t be the mom, she almost lost her father and some new young girl who may steal the heart and attention of her love.
It’s not easy but Oliver did well as usual. Cash deserves what he had and so did Isabella. Its’ great and thank you so much Leighton gives us this love journey even I do think it’s too long to walk to the end. Thanks, we are in love.
This series was 5 stars all the way for me. I read the whole series in one go and it was great. Although the Always With books were about Cash and Olivia and the fairy tale happy ever after they thought would come once they were married. I would have liked the epilogue to have included Nash and Marissa so we could have found out about them and their baby. Loved that Gavin and Ginger got together but would love a book about him and the 'work' he does. Can't wait to read Jason's story in Strong Enough
Cash and Olivia, continues to stand United against Sophie. Olivia, refuses to let her walk in and take her husband from her, but it's a fight she don't have to worry about, because Cash, will give up everything including Isabelle, if he feels it will threaten his marriage to Olivia, but luckily he don't have to worry about things like that, because Davenport's stick together and they're forever.
The final book in the Cash and Olivia story. The lies and secrets are found out and some terrible things happen. But some really great things happen as well. Cash and Olivia love each other and will do anything for one another. Through the ups and downs they stay together and love one another. They make a wonderful family.
LOVED LOVED LOVED this book.. Soooooo happy I found these little novellas.. I have loved Cash and Olivia since like forever. A great ending for this series that's forsure. Finally got all the answeres I was looking for when I started the 4 part novella.. Is Isabella really Cash's.. Will Cash and Olivia be able to have a little one of there own..?
