CAUTION: This is third in a trilogy, actually third of a three-part story that should be read in order.
Now that both of Peyton Nelson’s friends have (conveniently) gotten involved with detective Ellis Hunter’s friends and solved pieces of the who, what, when, where, why and how pieces of the mystery surrounding their husbands’ murders, it’s time for a bit of comeuppance and that means getting closer to the ever shrouded Evandria organization.
Out of her coma, Peyton and Ellis are off to London to try to unravel the prickly remaining mysteries. Namely, why her brother, Jensen’s name was mentioned, who was speaking, what Jenson knows about Evandria plus finding her husband’s other family. Both sticky situations promising a lot of pain.
Home in the States, the couples realize they haven’t made much progress, some threats materialize as suspects and coincidences multiply and the rabbit hole proves deeper than originally thought. This conclusive piece wraps the previously ragged threads spilling Evandria’s dirty secrets along with who was actually responsible for the murders.
Overall, much too much of this fast paced three part read is conspicuously convenient with too many coincidences for my taste. That said, the pieces are nice beach/inclement weather reads with small twisting but intriguing mysteries to unravel plus a bit of suspense to make you gasp and (sigh) handily partnered romances.

The coupling was a bit far-fetched with each woman falling for each of the men who were all friends but this is fiction and I ended up enjoying the notion, if not the reality.
The existence of an organization like Evandria was less far-fetched with the type of power focused and power hungry individuals in our society as it is.
This story revolved around Peyton and Ellis and the disturbing truths they are able to reveal within her family. Who would have thought the family member who ended up being the evil one, was it? I liked that the good gal got her man, in more ways then one.

Great book
What a great series of books. I was hooked from the first page to the last. Each character was different but brought something unique to the table so it never got stale. The intrigue and suspense held all the way through the three books too.

Excellent trilogy
WOW, great trilogy! These three books all have a great plot and the follow through is excellent. Nora Roberts move over because Olivia Haynes knows how to write a trilogy.

This book brought the conclusion of the mystery surrounding the death of Peyton, Willow, and Bailey’s husbands. It is also Ellis and Peyton turn for ove. Once again it’s a mild PG romance. It was rather predictable the three girlfriends hooked-up with the three guy friends.
Ellis’ is a great character- contradicting personality. He is a grouchy as a bear, and other times so loving and caring. Peyton’s life is in a mess with her dysfunctional family. There are a lot of twists and turns. My issue was I never really bought into the secret society that operates outside the law. Since I couldn’t connect with the Evandria plot, it made a good book less enjoyable.

End of the series
I like that all of the threads were tied up in this last book with some solid writing and plot line twists.

LOVED it!! I have really enjoyed this whole trilogy, but I think this one is my favorite. Not only because we finally get all the answers, but mostly because I just adore Peyton and Ellis. I have been so excited for their story, and it didn't let me down. They have such a great connection, and I loved when they finally opened up to each other. Peyton has been through so much, and Ellis really sees her in a way that no one else does. I could not get enough of their romance!
And the plot. Finally answers! I will say I was shocked by the villain. I did not see that coming, and I just love when that happens. Very interesting with lots of twists and turns. The epilogue was adorable. I personally would have loved just a tiiiny bit more Peyton and Ellis before the epilogue, but I'm greedy that way. Can't wait for more by this author!

Ms Jaymes is a go to author for me and Cowboy Command and the rest of that series is one of my favourites - if I have nothing to read then I will reread the whole series! This series has been good but perhaps not quite to that standard - I can't see me rereading it.
That said it had a great story line with a good plot. Probably my biggest problem with the series though was the splitting it into three parts - there were some parts that didn't gel well and I had forgotten where we were up to by the time the next book arrived.
I look forward to the next book by Ms Jaymes and rereading my favourites again!

Great ending to a great series. We have been on our toes for three books on who and what and why. But the twist at the end was not expected. At. All. Talk about blindsided. It was so good. All the ups and downs with this series as well as the plot thickened. Just when we thought we had it figured out BAM it went a different direction. Great job Olivia.
