Merger The Series, Book 1-3
MERGER, Book 1
Kasey (K.K.) Blakely never meant to fall in love with her business partner, but she did. When she accidently stumbled into Joshua Crawford, he was just a man…a beautiful, sexy man that rendered her breathless, in a cloud of lust. He said he always got what he wanted and when he set his sights on her she was powerless to resist. It was supposed to just be a date, but it end up being so much more.
Joshua Crawford, never as dazzled, falls under the enchantment of the beautiful brunette and decides he wants to know more about her. In an unsuspecting moment that thrusts them back together he decides to ask her out. It doesn’t take long to discover her true identity and he’s warned that the age old adage of mixing business and pleasure still holds true. Never as smitten or intrigued, he’ll do anything to have her - including withholding his last name. Only after a passionate exchange and the prospect he could lose her does he come clean with who he is and what they mean to one another.
Kasey, who’s always confident, struggles with her growing affection for a man who has claimed her heart and changed her world, but should be forbidden. She’s all in…then all out. Despite the warnings, Kasey and Joshua risk it all. Only to find that love isn’t enough to overcome the challenges life throws their way. Can they manage the MERGER of their hearts and still maintain their future partnership?
MERGER UNDONE, Book 2
When Kasey (K.K.) Blakely closes the biggest merger of her life, she never expected to fall in love with her business partner, Joshua Crawford. He’s brilliant, sexy and totally enamored with her. It’s a lethal combination for a sheltered heart. She knows mixing business with pleasure can be disastrous, but takes a leap of faith and goes to Los Angeles. Two weeks to work on the new alliance of their partnership and relationship. But when Josh walks out of the men’s restroom on the heels of his assistant everything she’d tried to avoid unravels around her. Confused and angry, K.K. turns to her only friend to escape the nightmare that unfolds: her boyfriend’s brother, and well-known playboy, Jake Crawford.
Frantic to plead his innocence, Josh pulls out every stop to save his relationship with the only woman he’s ever loved. But tragedy strikes again when K.K.’s father falls ill and she has to leave to go back to New York. Brokenhearted, K.K., has to decide once and for all if she's going to move forward with her partner, or go about business as usual.
As her father lies dying, she takes over as CEO of the east coast side of the Blakely-Crawford Corporation. But it’s hard to lead when your partner is also the lover who has left you scorned.
Merger Undone is the unraveling of hearts and dreams, truths and lies. With new obstacles, unlikely connections and the future of a merger at stake, K.K. is set into a tailspin. How can Josh hope for a happily ever after when there’s more than one man willing to catch her when she falls? Who wins when everything is at stake?

I was gifted Merger by the author. I had no clue what I was getting myself in to. I absolutely could not put this book down. I was about half way through when I discovered it was a trilogy. I purchased the box set immediately. So glad I did. Get ready for a roller coaster of emotions; love, lust, laughter, betrayal, forgiveness, grief, hatred, friendship, partnership, etc......you will experience them all. Dont think you will be able to predict the ending. So much happens that will blow your mind.
Josh and KK are amazing. I loved Jake and Beth as well, but I especially loved the fathers. They stole my heart. Both so caring and loving to their young children after their wives' both passed away from breast cancer.
Overall, amazing story! Will definitely be on my re-read list :)

Ok overall not a terrible read. It kept my interest but there were things I couldn't get into.
Here are things I liked about the book
1) it was sexy
2) Josh was not
3) Kasey was a smart, independent women
Dislikes
1) they "fell" in love in like three days
2) K.K is a ridiculous nickname and definitely fits a stuck up socialite.
3) other than their relationship there really wasn't anything happening
I realize that this is fiction but I couldn't really get into their relationship ...

September 25, 2015I have completed the series and would high recommended all three books. The books are easy reads and I have fallen in love with the characters. KK is a strong smart business woman. I would definitely give this series a five stars. I love to read series as they become one of the family.
