ENOUGH!!
Book 25 & still no end. I am totally through with Hannah Ford books. The story started out okay but by book 20 it gets to be a bit much. When will it end? Book 30 or 35, maybe 40.

AND THE SUSPENSE CONTINUES TO BUILD!!!
Title: What He Reasons
Series: What He Wants
Designation: Book Twenty-Five of a Multi-Installment Serial, Not a standalone story, Cliffhanger Ahead
Author: Hannah Ford
Reading Platform: Kindle Unlimited
My Rating: FOUR ENTERTAINING STARS ****
***I love Hannah Ford's writing and adore a great serialized story, especially when it's filled with heart-pounding intrigue, spine-tingling suspense, steamy romance, and mind-blowing plot twists at every turn, and What He Wants has certainly included every single one of these elements and so much more. I have enjoyed every aspect of this story and normally don't mind waiting a few weeks or even months for each installment, but eight long months between release dates for less than 60 pages is too long, even for me. Like many other reviewers have stated, it was difficult to get back into the story because of the length of time between the release of Books 22 and 23. I found myself unable to remember the basic details of the story. Thankfully, I've been using Kindle Unlimited to follow this story but the drawback of using KU is I don't actually own the books. I borrow each one and return it once I'm finished, so I didn't have the actual books to refresh my memory. I had to go back and read my own reviews for the previous six installments to refamiliarize myself with the events of the story to date. Also, there are still a disturbing number of typos and grammatical errors in the last several installments. What makes this so disappointing, at least for me, is the fact it's totally out of character for Hannah Ford. Most of these problems should have been caught by an editor or proofreader. I'm not trying to be ugly or critical, however, I do believe in being honest. I have truly loved this story and hopefully, Ford is back on track with regular releases. I take pride in writing honest reviews and in the spirit of full disclosure, I feel compelled to add that I recommend this serial for readers who have Kindle Unlimited. This series includes 25 installments to date released over a 36 month period with still no end in sight. I am a KU subscriber and as long as the books remain enrolled in Kindle Unlimited, I'll continue to read them.
What He Reasons is Book Twenty-Five in the spellbinding series, What He Wants by Hannah Ford! And yes, this is a serial with lots and lots of nail-biting, white-knuckle cliffhangers! So if you haven't read Books 1-24, PLEASE STOP HERE. This series literally explodes with unexpected plot twists, surprising revelations, dark secrets, heart-stopping danger, emotionally gripping intrigue, surprising humor, steamy romance, provocative domination, sexy bondage, and gut-wrenching violence that will shock you senseless and leave you breathless! Oh my glory! And just when you think it's safe to peek out from under the covers - WHAM - Ford blindsides you again with another shocking bombshell! And there's a new game afoot! We dive right back into the mystery surrounding the women missing from Force which has since been closed and a deliciously dark new case involving a troubled nineteen-year-old young woman accused of murdering her boyfriend. And another murder! Oh my! The story is exciting, dark, dark, intense, thrilling, riveting, compelling, powerful, mysterious, suspenseful, enticing, addictive, romantic, sensual and steamy. Whew! That's a real mouthful but these are only a few of the words that come to mind when reading this story. The dialogue is smart, well executed, seductive and flows effortlessly. The narrative is well written in the first person. The characters are fascinating, captivating, engaging, intriguing and sexy as sin. Ford skillfully combines these elements into a deliciously dark, delectably sinful and delightfully wicked serial filled to the brim with danger, drama, intrigue, suspense, murder, mystery, romance, passion, lust, sex and mind-blowing plot twists. And did I mention BDSM? Oh yes, it's in there as well! It's an all you can eat buffet! But, if you object to explicit language and sexual situations, then this may not be the book for you.
Synopsis for Books 1-16:
Law student Charlotte Holloway may only be 21 but she has worked tirelessly to gain favor with her law professor and now she finally has the long-awaited opportunity to prove her worth. She has been assigned to work with him on a very high profile murder case. The client is a none other than Noah Cutler, a very powerful and sought after attorney himself. But at her first meeting with the new client, she realizes that Noah is her mysterious one-time hookup from the bar the previous night. Huh? What the heck? And as women connected to Noah continue to turn up dead, Charlotte is drawn deeper and deeper into his life and his world of BDSM. Despite her resolve, Charlotte has fallen in love with the mysterious Noah Cutler and desperately works to clear him of the murders. So when an anonymous caller instructs her to visit Force, a BDSM club and seek out Audi James for information, she convinces Noah that she wants to become his submissive and accompany him to the club. That decision may just be the biggest mistake of her career and her life because Audi James has already been charged with one murder and almost too late, Charlotte finally becomes all too aware of the connection between Audi James and Noah. Charlotte finally realizes that in order to exonerate Noah, she must somehow flush out the real killer. She sets her plan in motion with disastrous results. She's in over her head and has made herself a target. The killer has taken the bait and has now set his sights on her! Charlotte becomes more determined than ever to discover the identity of the murderer but she must convince Noah to help her. Noah reluctantly agrees but now they must return to Force to bait their trap and Force is the very last place on earth Charlotte wants to go especially after her previous terrifying experience with Audi James. Will Noah be able to protect her? Oh my! It seems that Noah Cutler has plans for the naive, young Charlotte and they include much more than working on his case. He wants her more than his next breath and is determined to possess her. Will the cost of his love be Charlotte's life? Will she become the next victim? Will her love for Noah and desire to exonerate him cost her everything including her life? Does Noah truly care for Charlotte or simply want to dominate her? Or is she just a pawn in a wicked game of death? Oh my! The evidence against Noah continues to build but he finally reveals his true feelings for Charlotte but no spoilers from me! The suspense builds! Secrets are revealed and the killer is finally exposed!
Book 17:
Charlotte has been rescued, the killer has been revealed, Noah has been cleared of the murder charges and many of our burning questions have now been answered. But what do we really know about Noah Cutler? Not as much as we thought because now we have new questions and I can hardly wait for the answers! Oh my goodness! It's been two weeks since Charlotte's rescue and Noah's very near brush with death. He came very close to dying while trying to rescue Charlotte but a little thing like a near-fatal knife wound could never slow down the powerful Noah Cutler. Surprisingly, he has finally proposed to the lovely Charlotte with a very large diamond in a very grand gesture right in the middle of Time Square. Oh my! And of course, Charlotte has accepted. But that's not all! Noah has offered the future Ms Noah Cutler a full partnership with him in their brand new office in a brand new building. What? Yep, Cutler and Cutler. But, that's still not all. Noah has given Charlotte their very own private BDSM room located right inside their new office. Huh? Oh yes, Noah has big plans for the future Ms Cutler! Now, all Charlotte has to do is finish law school, graduate, take the Bar Exam, become a lawyer and of course, marry Noah! Easy peasy, right? Not! Sounds like a lot of work to me! But, she has to go back to school first and that may be a little difficult. It seems that she has to be cleared by the school psychiatrist, Dr Jason Cartwright first. Oh my! The handsome Dr Cartwright has a small caveat - before she can return to her classes, Charlotte must attend ten counseling sessions - with him! And Noah goes ballistic! No counseling sessions for Charlotte with a male therapist! What the heck? Noah finally has Charlotte in his office, his life and his bed and he fully intends to keep her there! She belongs to him and only him! No other men are allowed in Charlotte's life - no way, no how! And Noah will do whatever it takes to make sure it stays that way including a little bondage and punishment! Oh my! In addition to everything else going on in Charlotte's life, she and Noah take on their first case together. Noah has just accepted a pro bono case for him and Charlotte to represent Lilah Parks, a troubled nineteen-year-old young woman accused of stabbing and murdering her boyfriend. For reasons unknown to Charlotte, Noah seems to think this case may be big! Unfortunately, it also appears that Noah will also be working on this case with his ex-submissive, Clementine, which Charlotte doesn't like at all! And if that isn't enough to drive a girl crazy, her mother just gave a not-so-nice interview to a news magazine and is now coming to town for a visit. Good grief! Even as Noah's darkness, domination, and sadism escalate, the only thing on Charlotte's mind right now is still her compelling need to discover the fate of Mikala and the other women held prisoner with her at Force and it seems she's not the only one interested in finding the missing women. She receives another anonymous phone call from a different mysterious man concerning the missing women. The mystery man finally reveals himself as John, a former dungeon master at Force and wants to meet with Charlotte about Mikala. Oh my lord! What's a girl to do?
Book 18:
And the plot thickens! Noah becomes aware of Charlotte's plan to meet with John about Mikala and the missing girls from Force and insists he accompany her but the situation quickly escalates from a fact-finding mission to a murder when they discover John has been murdered. Oh my! Still trying to recover from her kidnapping and ordeal with Professor Worthington at Force, Charlotte discovers that Noah is keeping yet more secrets from her and as a result, her trust in the man she loves, once again begins to waiver. Shaken by this latest revelation, Charlotte's newfound happiness with Noah begins to unravel. Oh no! Will Charlotte and Noah's relationship be able to survive this latest ordeal??? And Charlotte's mother???
Book 19:
Our story continues with Charlotte desperate and discouraged with the status of her relationship with Noah and the secrets he seems determined to keep concerning Force and the missing women although he continues to insist it's for her safety. And to add injury to insult, Charlotte's mother has now made an appearance and for some unknown reason, appears committed to disrupting her life. Charlotte, desolate and fed up with both her mother and Noah, refuses to submit to the will of either and decides to no longer accept neither her mother's interference nor Noah's high-handed tactics. But no one disobeys Noah Cutler and gets away with it - not even Charlotte. But there's much more at stake than just her engagement to Noah. Her dream of becoming a lawyer is threatened, as well as her life. Oh my! And to make matters even worse, the unexpected reappearance of an old enemy serves to further complicate Charlotte's newfound resolve. Is discovering the identity of Lameuix and rescuing Mikayla worth the risk of losing everything?
Book 20:
Oh my goodness! Where do I even begin? This is certainly an installment you don't want to miss! It's a nonstop war of wills between Charlotte and Noah which consequently results in punishment for Charlotte. (Oh yes! Loved that part!) And having her mother staying in the apartment is not making the situation any easier. But Charlotte may be in over her head and Noah may not be able to save her this time. Noah's former friend and Charlotte's former law professor, Colin Worthington, has escaped from jail after having been charged with murder and kidnapping. His attempt to frame Noah for several murders was unsuccessful but he's far from finished with Noah and Charlotte. He's still determined to hurt Noah by exploiting his only weakness - Charlotte. Oh no! Oh yes! It looks like Professor Worthington is after Charlotte - again! And to make matters worse, Charlotte's future as a lawyer is hanging by a thread and may be dependent upon testimony given by Dr Jason Cartwright, the Columbia student advisor/therapist. But before the hearing for disciplinary action can be convened, Dr Cartwright is murdered in his office! And it happens right after a meeting with Charlotte! Yikes! Has Charlotte finally gone too far this time? Will Noah be able to save her or will she be charged with murder? Or will Professor Worthington find a way to kidnap Charlotte again? Questions continue to arise as more secrets are revealed and Noah finally discloses the identity of Lameuix to Charlotte. As I said, this is one installment you don't want to miss. It's nonstop mystery, murder, suspense, and intrigue!
Book 21:
Oh my! Detective Rake is at it again. He wants to make an arrest but it's not Noah he's after this time - he's after Charlotte for the murder of Dr Jason Cartwright. What? Oh no! It seems that Charlotte may have been the last person to see Dr Cartwright alive. The police are aware that Charlotte had the opportunity to murder him and will soon learn she also had motive once they discover his plans to reveal her relationship with Noah as wrongful conduct to the university disciplinary board. Oh goodness! Poor Charlotte! During the course of events, Charlotte and Noah also uncover a surprising and unexpected link between the Lilah Parks/Ryan Aqualino murder case and Lameiux. Oh no! And to make matters even worse, Charlotte's mother, Pamela, is still in town and still running her mouth, undermining Charlotte again to another sleazeball journalist! There's only one thing left to do.... Noah needs answers and decides his only course of action is to meet with Lamieux but Charlotte insists on accompanying him and with Professor Worthington still on the loose, Noah finally but very reluctantly agrees. And when Charlotte first sets eyes on Lamieux - it's...it's...OMG!
Book 22: Mr DeMille, I'm ready for my close up!
Charlotte and Noah arrive at Lamieux's New York estate but nothing is as it seems. Charlotte has been a very naughty, disobedient girl and after some well-deserved punishment (lol...), Noah finally reveals his secret plan to use Lamieux in drawing out Professor Worthington. Noah realizes the danger Worthington poses to both him and Charlotte and is determined to eliminate that threat...at any cost...even if it includes murder. Unfortunately, Noah is not the only one with a secret plan. It seems Lamieux has his own secret agenda....and it includes Charlotte and Mikala! Oh no! And OMG! Another mother of all cliffhangers! Well, on the bright side, at least Charlotte found Mikala but she may wish she hadn't! But be forewarned, things are rarely what they seem, so don't jump the gun just yet! This is another installment you don't want to miss! But one thing is for sure, you better buckle up; it's most definitely a wild ride!!!
Book 23:
Charlotte finds herself in the thick of things with her life once again in jeopardy... with only Noah to save her from Lamieux and Professor Worthington. You'll find out in this installment but is this finally the end of the shocking secrets and nefarious machinations? Or is this all just the beginning with Lamiuex as only another decoy? Will Noah and Charlotte ever get the answers they seek? We'll see!
Book 24:
Charlotte and Noah are back home in New York City, trying to resume their lives together. But with Lamiuex now dead, the deranged Professor Worthington once again eluding capture, and Clementine up to her same old deceptive tricks, the life of the happy couple is still far from normal as more secrets and lies bubble to the surface. And just when you think it's safe to peek out from under the covers - wham - Ford hits us with another sucker punch! Charlotte finds herself once again arrested for murder and dropping the biggest bomb to date! Will Noah be able to work his magic again or will he desert Charlotte in her hour of need, now that she's....? I'll never tell! Has the couple's luck finally run out? Oh dear! Round and round we go... where it stops, who the heck knows... but Hannah Ford, of course! lol...
Book 25:
Charlotte is in quite the pickle, in more ways than one. The District Attorney is determined to prosecute Charlotte for a murder she didn't commit and once again, she finds herself in great peril with only Noah to save her. But Charlotte has a little secret that may throw everyone for a loop-including the always cool, confident Noah Cutler! Buckle up my lovelies! Here we go again!
No spoilers from me but I will say this... Sexy alpha male attorney who loves to always be in control-check! A beautiful submissive law student who manages to always find trouble-check! An annoying former submissive and an even more aggravating mother-check! A puzzling new murder case-check! The return of a dangerous enemy-check! Another new but old enemy is revealed-check! Danger, drama, violence, murder, suicide, mystery, jealousy, secrets, lies, betrayal, intrigue, suspense, missing women, a sex club, a slave auction and a sex trafficking ring-check!

This just gets better and better! One heck of a heart-pounding ride! Deliciously dark, powerfully compelling, completely captivating, seriously sexy and definitely entertaining!

Noah realizes the danger Worthington poses to both him and Charlotte and is determined to eliminate that threat...at any cost...even if it includes murder. Unfortunately, Noah is not the only one with a secret plan. It seems Lamieux has his own secret agenda....and it includes Charlotte and Mikala! Oh no! And OMG! Another mother of all cliffhangers! Well, on the bright side, at least Charlotte found Mikala but she may wish she hadn't! But be forewarned, things are rarely what they seem, so don't jump the gun just yet! This is another installment you don't want to miss! But one thing is for sure, you better buckle up; it's most definitely a wild ride!!!
Book 23:
Charlotte finds herself in the thick of things with her life once again in jeopardy... with only Noah to save her from Lamieux and Professor Worthington. You'll find out in this installment but is this finally the end of the shocking secrets and nefarious machinations? Or is this all just the beginning with Lamiuex as only another decoy? Will Noah and Charlotte ever get the answers they seek? We'll see!
Book 24:
Charlotte and Noah are back home in New York City, trying to resume their lives together. But with Lamiuex now dead, the deranged Professor Worthington once again eluding capture, and Clementine up to her same old deceptive tricks, the life of the happy couple is still far from normal as more secrets and lies bubble to the surface. And just when you think it's safe to peek out from under the covers - wham - Ford hits us with another sucker punch! Charlotte finds herself once again arrested for murder and dropping the biggest bomb to date! Will Noah be able to work his magic again or will he desert Charlotte in her hour of need, now that she's....? I'll never tell! Has the couple's luck finally run out? Oh dear! Round and round we go... where it stops, who the heck knows... but Hannah Ford, of course! lol...
Book 25:
Charlotte is in quite the pickle, in more ways than one. The District Attorney is determined to prosecute Charlotte for a murder she didn't commit and once again, she finds herself in great peril with only Noah to save her. But Charlotte has a little secret that may throw everyone for a loop-including the always cool, confident Noah Cutler! Buckle up my lovelies! Here we go again!
No spoilers from me but I will say this... Sexy alpha male attorney who loves to always be in control-check! A beautiful submissive law student who manages to always find trouble-check! An annoying former submissive and an even more aggravating mother-check! A puzzling new murder case-check! The return of a dangerous enemy-check! Another new but old enemy is revealed-check!

I forgot why I stopped reading this series...Save Your Money its a TRAP
I was looking in my library for something to read and realized I had not read book 26. Sooooo, I paid $2.99 and ended up with a few chapter then was left hanging AGAIN! I was about to start the Strict series but after reading the reviews, I remembered why I had not previously read Book 26 released in 2017 I think I read on her website.
With all the same complaints from multiple readers its obvious Ms. Ford is not taking heed to the complaints. I've added my review to possibly save other readers from the short story cliff hanger trap. There are lots more authors in the genre that care about their readers and provide good stories for your money. HANNA FORD US NOT ONE OF THEM. My money us better spent with authors who care about providing a good book or series, not one who just collects a few chapters and calls it a book. I won't spend any more money with this author and I this series eventually ends well for these characters!!!

Ok, Ms. Ford you have my attention...
I will admit I was beginning to lose interest in the series, but you got me back with this one. Thank you for FINALLY having these two grow up and put their GROWN PANTS on. So tired of Charlotte whining and Noah storming away. I really want them to settle down with NO MORE DRAMA. That being said, catch, imprison (FOR GOOD) this time the missing professor. Let no more women from Noah's past (who I think this Ivy is) suddenly appear and let them have that HEA with their baby! I can hope right?

Come on already
I loved Hannah's books, they were so great and well written, the characters well thought out. NOW this is just getting ridiculous. The story is not naking any sense anymore because i cant remeber anything beyond this book because of the huge break in between. Also, just this book alone has no flow and is so short, really nothing happened. Im done with this series.

What He Reasons. (What He Wants, Book Twenty_ Five) By Hannah Ford
I'm a great fan of Hannah Ford but it makes me mad that she's strengthening these books out. I want to know how this series will end,but 25 books. I love Noah and Charlotte even though Noah is a bully and Charlotte is letting him push her around. This relationship appears to be doomed. Definitely for mature reader's. The bonus book Better When Its Wrong by Chloe Hawks appears to be quite interesting.

Love this series!
While this series makes me wonder how many parts it's going to have I really enjoy the series. Yes I wish they were closer together because quite frankly I forget what's happened in the previous one but overall I would recommend this series. You just might want to wait until it's all done. Secrets, answers, new characters and hot 🔥🔥🔥 sex round this book out.

I have a Love/Hate relationship with these books
Love the storyline. Hate getting such short snippets of the story at a time. Wondering if this is a soap opera type storyline with no ending. Wish is was longer books or closer together. I love the books but only read because I have KU. Couldn't imagine paying for the short stories. Too much to invest.

I am honestly SO frustrated with this series. It is time for it to be wrapped up or atleast have an actual FULL book for once. I don't know how Ms. Ford thinks that people will keep buying her books after 25 now. Please answer our questions and finish this series up. It is well written and very hot but even with that it's hard to keep going with this series.

UGH
This series of books is so frustrating, few errors in the last few between names, but the books are so short, thankfully all but #12 & 26 are on Kindle Unlimited, it would be nice if it was just 1 book. Frustrated at reading to this point to not be able to finish, cause again, last book is not on Unlimited.

This is the shortest book ever
Why oh why you do this. Thank God I have kindle unlimited because 2.99 for this book is too much come on book 25 and it keeps getting shorter by the minute. I'm do disappointed.

Finally thank Goodness!!!
I've been waiting for this one and true to form I am enthralled by the ongoing drama of these two characters. The only disappointment is once again the agonizing wait for #26. Never can put one of this series down. Keep. Them. Coming!!

My only quirk with these books (which I love) is by the time another one comes out, it’s hard to remember where they left off...probably because I read sooo much but still...I guess if their ever finished I’ll just reread them all.
December 7, 2017
The book is good it's becoming a little repetitive with the story line I feel if she go a different direction it would become a hit again but I will continue to read it until the author ends the series.

What He Fights Book 25
These books leave you wanting more and more. It is getting harder to leave a review without spoilers. These books are good and the anticipation for each book grows as you finish one you need the next one. So much happens in this one on to the next.

Hannah never disappoints. We might have to wait a bit but when Noah and Charlotte are back it is always amazing.

I have to say that Noah's reaction to the big news was much tamer than I expected. This dog walker has me suspicious and I have a few guesses about who the person tossed from the car is.

Great
I can’t wait for the next one fantastic reaD I’m never disappointed with this author keeps me coming back for more

So disappointing!
This could be a good series if each book was longer than a chapter. These "books" are too short and there is too much time between releases. I've lost interest.

Loved the fact that this book was truly about Charlotte and Noah.
However, I am ready for this series to end. Books are shorter and the story is being drug out!

I'm just annoyed that it takes forever for these to come out. This story could be so good if we didn't have to wait.
