I'm so glad to read Nathan's POV from beginning to end, and it really shines a light, on how far they've both have come.
I loved it and I feel like I've known these two personally🤔🤷🏽♀️ won’t lie though they have become my favorite lawyers in a book series.

5 "Nathan & Lila FOREVER" stars.
Thank you K.I. Lynn! Release is a total gift to us Nathan & Lila lovers.
Told in Nathan's POV, Release give us a glimpse into Nathan & Lila's life after Reciprocity.
As you start reading, you feel the same emotions as when you first fell in love with BREACH, because let's be honest — Nathan & Lila are UNFORGETTABLE.
"Our story was never rainbows and sunshine. It was gritty and raw, and a force neither of us were able to deter."
These two stole my heart the moment I met them. The feelings they brought out in me while reading their story were crazy beautiful. I rooted for them. I cried for them. And fell in love with them.
"...we were both mad, but still madly in love."
Their journey was not simple. It was raw but delightful. And there was no way you couldn't feel the raging chemistry between them. Theirs is the kind of story that stay with you for life.
If you have read the Breach Series, don't you dare to think about it. READ RELEASE. And remember that at the end, "Dreams do come true."

"Our story was never rainbows and sunshine. It was gritty and raw, and a force neither of us were able to deter. But that’s what a true love is—an undeniable power—and that was exactly what captured us. As close to love at first sight as two fucked-up people could get. It started with two broken people, and ended with a love worth dying for. But love isn’t perfect. Love isn’t without sacrifice and struggle. Especially with all that we’ve been through."
I liked it better than the other parts as it was short and simple AS EVERY BOOK IN THE SERIES SHOULD'VE BEEN.
Liked the fact that Nathan learned to cook over the years and they were in 50-50 percent and not everything was dumped upon Lila.

Companion novel to the Breach series from H's POV.
This reads like an extended epilogue showing how life has evolved for Lila and Nate since Reciprocity (#3) and nine years in the future.
Life hasn't always been easy for them since we left off, there are many ups and downs, but despite this I soon recognised the explosive hot-headed couple. It was a joy to revisit Lila and Nate along with their kids.

So much time had been spent running, but what did you do when the treadmill stopped?
Release is told from Nathan's POV and covers around nine years. Nathan takes us from the moment he meets Lila at 35There was no particular reason why she caught my eye. She simply did. She was unassuming, skittish even. up to he is 44 years old.
In the years between the two have struggled trying to overcome the events in book 3.
“You’re waiting to die, and I’m dying in the wait.”
But with the love and need for each other, and some help, they managed to get their HEA.
Part of a series that has to be read in order:

Nathan and Lila have overcome a lot throughout their relationship. They’ve survived everything life has thrown at them, but what happens when the calm comes and these two are still caught up in the storm? Release is our extended Epilogue, the Happily Ever After that bounces from key moments in the lives of these two characters. This is a story for the fans. The ones that were wanting more of their favorite couple, and boy did we get it. I loved that we got a glimpse into the life of Nathan, pre-Lila, in the months leading up to his joining the firm. The moments he first noticed her and eventually to the moments years later where all of that struggle paid off.
I could not have asked for more for these two characters. KI Lynn gave us to perfectly imperfectly characters whose broken pieces fit flawlessly together.
For new and old readers a like, this is one series I can recommend with complete confidence. It is raw, gritty and exceptionally hot. I have not come across another dirty talker like Nathan, even after hundreds of books. He remains the best!

This is the fourth book in the Breach series and Nathan Thorne is definitely one of my top five favorite book boyfriends. I love this whole series, it is absolutely one of my favorites, it is so well written and I love, love Nathan Thorne and his sexy as hell dirty talk. This is a short novella that is basically a super awesome epilogue and the perfect ending to a wonderful couple. This book starts off two months after Reciprocity ended and it's all from the sex God himself's POV. Marconi is dead and Adam is in prison so Nate and Lila should be happier than ever, right ? So why are they constantly fighting and snapping at each other and why can't Nate remember the last time they had sex ? It's as if they don't know how to live unless something horrible is hanging over them. They go back to couples therapy before too much damage is done and when Lila confesses her fears they are able to start reconnecting with one another. Their love is beautiful and strong and nothing or no one is going to get in between them. The book then skips forward to a year into marriage, then two years, four years, six years, and finally seven years of marriage. If you liked the Breach series then you definitely need to read this, my only regret is that I am heartbroken to say goodbye to Nate and Lila and I'm sorry to see their story end.

Release is a novella that's part of the Breach series from bestselling author K.I. Lynn and if you're as much of a fan as a series as I am, this addition is a must-read. Told from the POV of Nathan Thorne, we get a prologue AND an epilogue with Release. Yep, you read that right. We get those two for the series as a whole, with the prologue occurring before Nathan begins working at Holloway and Holloway Law and meets Delilah Palmer in Breach, and the epilogue after the events of Reciprocity.
Just like with Dissolution, I loved being privy to Nathan's thoughts and feelings and how he saw he viewed the changes to his life, one that he would later share with Lila. Clearly, just like in real life, the "happily" in "happily ever after" isn't guaranteed 24/7, and Nathan and Lila are still dealing with issues they've struggled with for years. Together, though, they're a stronger team, one that proves to be formidable over the next few years that we're able to glimpse of them as they create their family. This novella was the cherry on top of the dirty but oh-so-delish cake that was the Breach series. I'm giving Release five-plus stars. ♥

I love this series so I had to read this. It was very short but I enjoyed seeing this couple have such a great life after the horrors of their past. Nathan was a stellar H and will forever be one of my favorites.

5 Stars:
My absolute favorite and will read again and again. I strongly recommend! It has outstanding qualities. The characters are wonderful and surprising and multi-dimensional. The writing is luring, engaging, and well-crafted enough to keep me interested from cover to cover and beyond. The plot is astonishing with twists and turns weaved into a well thought and planned story. There’s no pretense and romance was well balanced and done entirely correctly with properly distributed amounts of hints, behaviors and incredible, undeniable chemistry. Predictability is at an all-time low. With the exception of series based books that follow the same path but are just as good. Overall, Favorite, must read again, recommend!!!

Oh my. .It was like Christmas when I got this novella..I don't think I couldn't have been more excited for anyone else. .And it's in Nathan POV so holy cow...lol
It starts off with Nathan before he met Lila, then when he first saw her and then after..When they are free to live their life.
It's not all hearts and flowers..but it's raw and intense and beautiful..God I love these 2!
It made me smile so much and feel for them!!!
If you love Nathan don't miss this!

I can't get enough of Delilah and Nathan!
Told in Nathan's POV, the man with the most deliciously dirty mouth, this is a short continuation of their story. With things now settling down, things between my favourite couple aren't going as smoothly as they could be and it's up to the pair of them to get back on track.
This was a bittersweet read for me. I adore Nathan. All dirty talking book men are measured against him and I'll never be ready to say goodbye but at the same time this book was everything that I wanted and I loved every single word.

DISCLAIMER TO MY FELLOW GOODREADER
This review is my personal opinion and may contain: spoilers, quotes, rants and swearing.
I was a little nervous for this one. Essentially, it was an epilogue but those can go either way. But overall I loved this bonus material! This is goodbye... until the next time.
“It became undeniable—I was destined to be with Lila. I had to wage through hell, my life razed, to get there. But now I knew why. My purpose—save Lila. She was my life, my everything, and she had given me love, life, and warmth. She saved me in every way possible.”
Cliffhanger – no (book #3.5 in series)

An amazing ending to a beautiful love story. What stole my heart in this one, was the final scene where Nate was holding a sleeping 3-month-old Kyla on his chest 😍😍😍

I have been waiting for this final instalment in the "Breach" series ever since I finished "Reciprocity." This series is one of my all time favourites and I fell crazy in love with Nathan Thorne and his dirty mouth! I couldn't wait to catch up with both Nathan and Lila so this was an instant one-click, and thankfully I was not disappointed with how K.I. Lynn concluded the story.
"It started with two broken people, and ended with a love worth dying for."
First off, I liked that this book began with a bit of recap into what had happened so far in Nathan and Lila's world. It had been so long since my last visit to this series so I found the rundown extremely helpful. As soon as I started to read, I found that I was soon remembering the story and how I had left Nathan and Lila with their HAE. Now it was my chance to discover what was up next for one of my favourite book couple's
"So much time had spent running,
but what did you do when the treadmill stopped?"
I loved that K.I. Lynn gave me an extended epilogue with this final novella. This instalment jumped from year to year to enlighten me to what the future held for Nathan and Lila. I thoroughly enjoyed finding out how life was turning out for the pair. It was good to know that, despite the years, Nathan and Lila were still crazy in love with each other. If you have loved this series, I would recommend one-clicking this last part of the story. I adored spending a few hours with the sexy couple for one last time.
"There was no more pain, no more fear,
only love and happiness. Forever."

Do ai even need to say I loved this novella?
Nathan Thorne will forever be my book husband and it was great to see him and Lila after their HEA. After all things don't turn magically amazing in the blink of an eye. They have to overcome so much still.
And to do so, they need to remain together, in every sense of the word.
For me it was so great to read more about them, it was such a bittersweet moment!

Loved getting to see more of Nathan and Lila's HEA!!!
My favorite part they turned into normal people with normal issues. From almost completely broken people to average everyday functioning couple. Ups and downs, hard times and fun times but always together. This book made me smile!
Nathan may be married and settled but oh that mouth. Forever my favorite dirty talker!!!
It was a short little update into their world. 4 stars because I am greedy and always want more!!!!

Great conclusion for Lila and Nathan. This is their lives after everything they have gone through, that there are still ups and downs, but there is also love and hope and they can lean on each other as a team.
