I really enjoyed the conclusion (or is it?) to Sarah and Jonas story. There were some truly great moments, and the end was fantastic. There were also some parts that were a bit slow. Overall, I've loved this trilogy and I'm curious to see what the 4th book is about since their story was concluded. I wish it was Henn's book but sadly I don't think he gets one. Either way, I'm excited to read more from Lauren Rowe and get to Kat and Josh's trilogy asap!

I really enjoyed this book. I finally got to know what was goin on with The Club. There was still so much to find out. But I luvd how everything worked. After the cliffy in the last book I was dying to know what was goin to happen with Sarah and Jonas. There are so many twists and turns in this trilogy it really keeps you on you toes. I couldn't put this book down once I started. I really enjoyed getting a more of Kat and Josh. I m really looking forward to more of them in there trilogy. I luv Henn I hope he gets his book I would luv more of him. I luv how Sarah Jonas Kat Josh and Henn worked will together in this book. They alway had each other's backs I also like the Oceans 11 reference it fit it so well. I would highly recommend this book and series it's really good I m glad I finally got around to these books and author I m really luvin her work.

4 " Divine originals" stars!
To say that these books were like rollercoaster for me is an understatement !
I felt every emotion during reading about Jonas & Sarah !
I had issues with both of the MCs, with their actions, with their stubbornness and their nympho-mania !
But beside every problem I had with these two I got what I wanted.. They are absolutely beautiful Happily Ever After, oh boy that was perfect !!!
Jonas Faraday changes so much! He showed his beautiful soul, his philosophy side ( I learn more about philosophy from him than from my teachers in school for 2 years, duhhh!) , his Alpha side ( although he frogot about this side from time to time! DON'T DO THIS AGAIN!), his caring side and his broken side. He was smart, full of ambition, always ready for the next experience and always ready to protect his loved ones!
I felt so sorry for what he been through.. this made him who is he, but he wasn't the divine side of himself before he met Sara
I wanted to slapped Sara , again, because of her actionat some moments! But I liked how determinate and straight forward she was! She loved Jonas with all her heart. She wanted to help everyone and she was samrt enough to do it! She was kickass but she was teeny weeny stupid at times too! Don't fake confidence everytime, sister! It's better to tell everything, not trying to hide the ugly parts!
I liked that she wanted to live in the present , not to blame themselves for old mistakes.. for things that they cannot change!
Like in the previous two books some of their banters were hilarious ! They were sweet and sexy and together they can conquer the world !
Jonas and his love for her butt!
Their never ending need for each other!
Their constant lust for each other!
And that Oh my Gooooooood !!!
I admit there were times where I was a little bored or angry and the constant wondering whether I liked the hero/heroine or not frustrated me...
BUT this story, about these people was different, beautiful, real and funny ! And I am not sorry that I read this series! And I am looking forward to read the next book, I need more Josh, Kat and Henn !!!

“Enough with that tormented guy—enough with that self-blaming, mea culpa bullshit. In this fairytale—our fairytale—you’re the guy who rides in on a white horse and kicks ass and takes names and loves me like nobody ever has—because you are that guy,”

I've already made it clear that I am in love with Jonas and Sarah's coupleship. These two is a force together. That's not up for any debate anymore so let me talk about what else I loved in this book.
I really liked that this book generously went back to Jonas and Josh's past. It really painted a clearer picture of what these two brothers went through at a very young age. All the more for me to have a better understanding of of what shaped them before adulthood. And although I really liked Josh from what I have already read about him in the first two books, I fell hard for this other Faraday brother in this book.
The way he was when Jonas was at his darkest, talking for the both of them, and practically living for him when Jonas withdrew from everything gave a picture of just how strong he was as a person and as a brother. It is such a breath of fresh air because familial discord is mostly the default in most books nowadays. I mean, this book had that in spades as well but the relationship that Jonas and Josh had when they were kids up until they were full grown adults made me really wish I had a brother that would always have my back. The Faraday brothers were such a joy to read that they make my heart smile. No kidding.
And hey, no cliffhanger ending here. Woot woot!

"Man scheitert nicht, weil man mal abstürzt - sondern nur dan, wenn man sich nie wieder aufrappelt."
1,5 🌟
Hä?! Das fühlte sich sehr nach einem Trilogieende an, aber da kommen doch noch vier Bücher?!
Insgesamt gilt das, was ich über die früheren Bände gesagt habe, auch jetzt noch, aber die Auflösung war doch wohl komplett aus der Luft gegriffen, an den Haaren herbeigezogen... wie immer man es nennen will. Die Sache mit dem Geld am Ende?! WTF?! Hääääääää?!
Was gut war: es gab endlich offene Gespräche und Jonas hat den Höhlenmenschen zumindest ein wenig im Griff. Reicht aber hier leider nicht, um den ganzen Quatsch aufzuwiegen, der hier so verzapft wurde.

Holterdipolter von einem Wahnsinn hinein in den nächsten. Dieser Band war mir doch sehr konstruiert und in allen Geschehnissen sehr plötzlich. Leider bisher der schwächste Band. Und warum gibt es nun noch einen vierten Band? Meiner Meinung nach hätte hier nun auch Schluss sein können..

I'm quite sad at how long it took for me to finish this book, I think I just didn't want the story to end.
First of all I LOVED THE STORYLINE. The heart ache, the characters ESPECIALLY Henn
Because of Henn, my life goal is to be a bad ass hacker now.
Jonas and Sarah's story was so unique. I'm sure there are plenty of books with similar plots but I haven't read one like it. I loved their chemistry, and even though the plot went a little fast. I was very happy with how honest they became with their feelings and there was barely any miscommunication.
Also Sarah is a brilliant, beautiful, strong, and bad-ass woman and there aren't a lot of women that are written like that in books
I love the connection Jonas and Sarah have, it's like no other
This couple has been through so much in their lives, they deserve each other. I'm sad to say good bye but knowing they're left with a happily ever after. I'm happy with that.
4.5 OAP STARS

Jonas has lost so many people he has loved. He can't lose his Sarah that will break him. I'm shocked he doesn't see the comparison of how fond of he was of his Mariela and Sarah. Mariela was his Nanny/Maid. He loved how they had a secret language Spanish. Her tanned skin how it resembled caramel.
I feel bad for Josh he was neglected because everyone was focus on Jonas. Not only did he lose his mother that night but he lost a part of his brother too. I can't wait to read his book.
Great title for this book Jonas found his true redemption with the help of Sarah. I couldn't put this series down and won't until I read Josh series. This book is so good and at times will make your anxiety go up so high. Eventhough you just can't put it down no matter how you try.

A nice conclusion (glad it’s over)
They kind of went rogue white knight trying to solve problems like they were law enforcement which felt odd.

Jonas and Sarah Happy Fucking After!
The story continues in book 3 with Jonas and Sarah. They meet under unusual circumstances, but the chemistry is off the chart and boy can Jonas go to town on her pie!! Nothing like a little fun, thrill, and intrigue to make a book fun but exciting. Enjoy Lauren Rowe.

What I loved:
•Jonas' possessiveness
•The intense and playful sex scenes
What killed me:
•The story just d.r.a.g.g.e.d. Ugh
•The nickname "big boy" - I'm from Cincinnati and all I think of is the restaurant guy...
•The fact that I think the second and third books could be condensed into one book
I feel drained from reading this and cannot further organize my thoughts on the matter...

Kasım ayındaki Tüyap fuarında çıkmıştı kitap. Ve biz tabii ki koşarak aldık. Her ne kadar karakterler bazen uçarı davranışlarda bulunsa da seviyorum bu çifti 😍
Seriye henüz başlamadıysanız size bir tavsiye. Hemen koşup bu kitapları temin edin. Giderek çıtası yükseldi ve Bedel ile resmen zirvede bıraktı seriyi yazar 😍
Gerçekten beğendim kitabı. İçindeki polisiye olaydan sonundaki evlenme teklifindeki orijinalliğe kadar güzel ve yaratıcı bir kitaptı. Erotik romanlarda beklediğim bu. Sevişme sahnesini herkes yazar, ya da aşkı. Önemli olan böyle sağlam temeller üzerine bir hikaye yaratabilmek. Nasılsa bunları bolca seviştireceğim, ne gerek var kafa yormaya, diye düşünmeyen bir yazarla karşılaştığımda, erotik roman bile dokunmuyor gördüğünü gibi 😂
Gerçi itiraf etmeliyim, yaralı bir geçmişle bizi boğacak diye korkmadım değil ama o, bu hikayenin sadece ufak bir kısmı. Güzel başlayan ve güzel final yapan bir seri.
Aslında seri bitmedi tabii ama Sarah ve tatlı Jonas'ımıza şimdilik veda ettik. Belki novellasını da çıkarır ve ikiz kardeşle devam eder ayınevi. Lütfen, lütfen, lütfen devam edin. Fuarda novella da çıkacak demiştiniz hem 😄
Redaksiyonda ufak tefek hatalar vardı, ama çok göze batacak şeyler değildi. Belki ben hikayeye çok kaptırdığım için gözden de kaçırmış olabilirim tabii 😂
Kanes'i bu güzel seriyi bizlerle buluşturduğu için tebrik ediyorum 👏👏 Ayrıca kitapların arasını çok açmadıkları için teşekkürler. Biz bu konuda iyiyiz diyen nicelerine örnek teşkil ediyorsunuz ❤️

There are a few reasons why I simply cannot make myself like these characters or this story😞. And it pains me because I usually get so lost in Rowe’s characters.
Unfortunately, we cannot love them all, and I am simply not on “Team Jonas & Sarah”.
My biggest issue is the amount of endearments. It seemed a little bit to me like the entire book consisted of Sarah and Jonas talking about how good their love was, and the endearments they called each other got longer and longer, and more and more repeated, and it took a all the “special” away from me.
I have found out I really do not like the term “my precious baby”. 😂
The plot was okay, but it did come of to me as far fetched, and it took a while to pick up.
I also had a hard time believing it. And it just wasn’t for me. 🤷🏻♀️
I am glad I pushed through and got closure, (I also really wanna read the rest of Rowe’s stuff, and I guess I am just more into the spin off😂)
I think getting the flashbacks from Jonas helped built his character, but his story (however sad) just didn’t pull me in.
Oh well, it can’t all be a winner🥳 Off to the next book, I go😎

The matters of teh heart are an entangled mess that leave sarah gasping for her life at te end of book 2 The Club: Reclamation
Lauren continues with the same love, albeit now its wrapped in protective layers. Foreboding elements of mafia, extortion, racketeering and prostitution ring are thrown in the mix to make it very edgy, very intriguing.
I liked how everything culminated at the end

İğrenç kapaklarına,kendisini tekrarlamasına ve gereksiz bir heyecan katma çabasına rağmen orta halli bir seriydi. Dört vermeye elim gitmiyor çünkü artık bitsin diye ite ite okudum keşke iki kitapla bitirseymiş yazar...

Jonas and Sarah are so goofy together, it’s hilarious and realistic and sweet. Did this series need to be 3 full length books + a full length epilogue? No, I don’t think so. It was a fun ride but kind of... too long.

Club Trilogy 1, 2 & 3
I reviewed books 1 & 2 after I finished #2. Didn't care for either book then, and now that I'm halfway through book 3, I dislike them even more. Sorry. Got up to 56% and just couldn't force myself to endure anymore. As another reviewer wrote, in part, it's filled with baby talk. And it really is. Childish banter, pages and pages of promising the same promise over and over (Jonas: promise me Sarah, you will never do that again! Sarah: I promise. Jonas: I mean never, ever, ever again. Sarah: ok. Jonas: say it. Say you'll promise me to never, ever do that again. Sarah: I promise to never do that again. Jonas: never, ever again...... blah blah blah. Three (that's 3!) Pages of that very conversation. Occasionally there are a few quirky moments in conversations that made me chuckle, but only a few. But when the big reveal.... ****SPOILER**** is actually a russian/ukrainian/whatever else international mafia prostitute/drug/weapons/trafficking/trying reunite mother russia..... well, I figured it's time to bail. I did enjoy that Jonas and Sarah got together (and often!!!) And the fun they had and the magnificent sex they had.... but the rest was too unbelievable. The characters were terrific. Would've loved to see Jonas reveal his Lunacy period to Sarah earlier in the series...... Would have loved to see Kat get together with Josh. Maybe even even kept the "syndicate" small, something they could actually handle themselves, and have more fun with couples travelling, living the rich life and having lots of sun, fun and sex. Ah well, like I said in my first review, if you're bored, go for it. These books are a great time filler and not hard to put down when it's time to fold the laundry or run to the store or any number of real life things that pulls us away from our stories. I wouldn't recommend this series, to me it's just a waste of time and money.... but like I've said, if you're bored......

Holy WOW! such an amazing third book, what an end to the trilogy !
Sarah needs to recover after being stabbed and Jonas is feeling full of guilt as he feels he didn't fully protect her. He has to deal with the emotions of finding her unconcious in a pool of blood. Together, along with the help from their friends they formulate a plan to bring down The Club. Will their plan work and can they really pull this off whilst keeping their relationship intact ?
What a brilliant build up, I personally found book 1 a little slow, Book 2 was really good and Book 3 just blew me away ! Once I started I couldn't put it down there was so much going on with the plans for the club, their relationship and their friends. This book has it all ... lovely romance, chemistry, really hot steamy scenes, suspense and such a brilliant ending. I would have loved to hear more about Josh and Kat though. I really felt the emotions throughout this series, I laughed out loud (my hubby thinks I'm crazy)! and I even shed a tear in places.
Oh how I'd love to join the 'Jonas Faraday club'.

I’m so obsessed with these books! I don’t know how Lauren does it, but I pray she never stops. I need updates on all these characters forever. Jonas and Sarah are madness together. They are a match of perfection. What Jonas went through as a boy, and that devil of a father he had..Sarah healed him. Touched his very soul, and he did that for her. This series has insane sex scenes, suspense, insane humor, such sweet moments and oh the angst. Sheer perfection!🙌🏽

Again I am somewhat meh about this book. I hate some of the writing style in this whole series. I loved the Morgan series and in that series there wasn't all this "my precious baby" or "my honkey monkey man" This is pretty much throughout this whole series and it just gets old as hell. I started the next series about Kat and Josh and so far only 3 chapters in I'm not impressed. If I have to hear how gorgeous and model like the female MC is in every chapter I might just throw up. This isn't at all the same writing style she used in the Morgan series. I would never have continued if it had. Also there is zero humor in this series or the next one I've just started. That was the one thing I loved about the Morgan series is her ability to make it sexy and have humor throughout the whole book. It just seems with this series every last chapter (not all I was exaggerating a bit BUT CLOSE) has sex in it. Trust me I love a book with some good sexy time in it but when it's almost every chapter it gets pretty old. Maybe I'm just old but I think other books do it perfectly.
I will state a huge positive about this book and this is why it didn't get 2 stars. Each book left on a cliff hanger and in the book before this one Sarah and it left off there and picked up with that story line.
If they didn't wrap up the whole Club thing the way they did I probably would have given this 1 to 2 stars but I like how they wrapped the whole thing up. It's on to Josh and Kat's love story.
This series was okay. It's not one I would recommend to everyone or anyone. In fact once I'm done with this whole series I will probably not remember much about this story. Read at your own risk. I skimmed and fast forwarded through almost all of the sexy time parts it got to be so ridiculously boring. Just be warned it gets old.

4.5 stars. Redemption FINALLY delivered what the first two books in this series could not. Rowe actually gave the characters more characteristics and and backstory this time around. The characters’ thoughts flowed more naturally, as well. Thank god for that. I couldn’t take much more of “This happened. This happened. This happened.” She also described the scenery in more detail, which gave the book a more realistic vibe.
There were finally details provided about The Club and the ways in which it was interfering with Jonas and Sarah’s lives. Yeah, the two lovebirds were still horny as ever, but at least there was an actual story to follow in this novel, unlike in the second book. Redemption had an Oceans Eleven kind of feel to it, which was an entertaining change of pace. I felt like I was reading a spy romance. Pretty cool. It was nice seeing Josh, Kat, and Henn in action, too.
I think I already said this in my review for the second book, but I absolutely loved the song references and the philosophical quotes. I actually made a playlist of songs mentioned in The Club books. All three books have helped me discover plenty of great music and some amazing quotes.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t give this book 5 stars because Rowe still resorted to using certain sayings over and over, such as “Oh, Jonas” (Sarah) and “baby” (Sarah and Jonas). I know that the term “baby” can either be seen as condescending or endearing. Normally, I think it’s cute, although my opinion of the word most definitely depends on the situation and on the person using the phrase. But, when it comes to Jonas and Sarah, the word “baby” makes me roll my eyes. Pet names are only sweet when they’re not used every two seconds.
Anyways, Redemption was my favorite book out of the three original Club novels. Sure, I’ve read romance books a lot better than this one, but I still liked it. I obviously haven’t read the epilogue yet, but I’m planning on reading it next. I’m excited to read Josh and Kat’s trilogy after I finish the epilogue. Although, I already know what happens with Josh and Kat because I’ve already read Hero from the Morgan Brothers series. Still. They seem like a cute couple and I’m interested in learning more about them.

İlk iki kitap sonrası neden devam ettiğimi sorguladım fakat finalin ne olacağını görmek istedim sanırım. Bizde üçleme olarak çıktığının altını çizmek istiyorum. Normalde yedi kitaptan oluşuyor. İlk üç kitap Jonas ve Sarah var, devamında sanırım adamın ikizin anlatılıyor. Her neyse, konuya dönecek olursam, üçüncü kitap ilk ikisine nazaran daha hareketli. Daha olay odaklı. Sarah’ın çalıştığı kulübün ne olduğunun keşfi ile başı belaya giriyor. Jonas ise sevgilisini korumak için elinden gelen her şeyi yapacaktır. Sarah’ın bıçaklanması sonrasında bir plan kurarlar. Kate (Sarah’ın yakın arkadaşı), Josh (Jonas’ın ikizi) ve hacker arkadaşları Henn (Josh’un arkadaşı) kulüp yöneticilerinin kimliklerini bulup, dolandırdıkları insanların intikamını almak adına ise koyulurlar. Aslında şey, bu kısım bir küçük ipucu olabilir o yüzden kendimi sansürlüyorum.
Erotik romanlarda beklentim salt sevişme sahnelerinin fazlalığı değil benim. Farklı türde ki kitaplarda da yazar zaten kaleme alıyor aşkı da tutkuyu da. Benim için dikkat ettiğim sağlam bir konu üzerine çıkılan hikaye yazabilmeleri ve o konuya devam getirebilmeleri. Yaralı geçmişe sahip karakterleri yüzeysel geçip üstün körü anlatması yerine, konuya dair analiz çıkarmasını beklerdim ben. Tabi ki okuyanı boğacak şekilde değil.
Bedel, diğer iki kitaba kıyasla cidden iyiydi. Bu yüzden benden hatırı sayılır bir puan kapabilir. Sevimli, romantik, ateşli sahneleri, heyecanlı ve güzel bir son ile tırmanma aşığı Jonas ve onun Güzel Kayıt Asistanı ve bal bademine böylece veda ettik. Ben sıkılmam okurum diyen olursa, keyifli okumalar ❤

This is the third and final book in this series. You MUST read them and read them in order. The first two books end with a cliffhanger, so I recommend buying all three and reading them in order. The characters are well developed by this third book. The plot turns VERY suspenseful with several twists and turns. I've read other reviews that the books could have been condensed into two. I have to agree. There were many, many, many steamy scenes, but that is what Jonas and Sarah are all about. It's erotica so the scenes are there for a reason.
The plot takes a while to develop, but you will not be disappointed with the twists and turns you don't see coming. Lauren Rowe did a great job connecting all the dots in this series. I am not a fan of cliffhangers, but in this case, I had to buy book two, and when I saw there was a book three, I just threw in the towel and bought that one as well.
These books were enjoyable but not the best for me. The narration lacked for me... and the characters seemed kinda childish, in my opinion. 3.75 rating.
