Coded For Love #3

Sean: A Stepbrother Romance

Rate this book
Three guys who want to leave their hacker days behind.
Three women who may or may not stand in their way.

Rowan Vaughn doesn’t need a man. All men do is break your heart. So when Sean Rattigan drives into town on a Harley Davidson—ripped and brooding—she has to lift her jaw and act like she doesn’t care. Sean is the one who stole her heart and promptly disappeared with it. She isn’t going to give him the satisfaction of falling on her back for him all over again.

Fresh out of jail for cyber crimes—and with a pack of hungry gangsters on his trail, slavering for his hacking skills—Sean Rattigan heads to Wales, determined to lay low in the land of the dragons. Seeking only a bed for the night, he calls on his stepsister, Rowan. But the magnetic attraction between Sean and Rowan is more powerful than ever, and their passion is quickly reignited.

Rowan has a confession to make, but Sean disappears again without hearing her out. Furious, Rowan vows to give him a taste of his own medicine and follows him to London. What she doesn’t know is Sean left her behind to protect her, and she’s about to walk into the mother of all gangland showdowns.

Saskia is British by birth, but because of her parent's nomadic tendencies she grew up traveling the globe--an only child with a serious book habit. She dreamed of being a writer since the age of 12 and finally began writing seriously in the late 1990s.

Saskia's short stories have now been published in over one hundred international anthologies and magazines including Cosmo, and Bust. In the noughties Saskia started working on longer projects and since then her novels have been published by Penguin and Harlequin as well as other publishing houses. To her absolute delight two of her novels won Passionate Plume awards and her work has twice been nominated for an Romantic Times Magazine Reviewers' Choice Award. Her Witches of Scotland series was widely translated and became a Scandinavian bestseller. In 2015 she became a USA TODAY bestselling author. It's been an amazing journey! Saskia is now a full time author and she has many more stories to tell.

Saskia lives in the north of England, on the beautiful, windswept landscape of the Yorkshire moors, with her real life hero, Mark. Mark supports her work through all its ups and downs, and manages to keep her sane and grounded when fiction threatens to take over.

Rowan and Sean, step brother/sister, have a romantic history, but he left and broke her heart and went to jail for a year for hacking a bank. Now, Sean is out of prison and seeks her out to get her back into his life permanently. A fellow inmate still has connections outside and makes his life miserable though, and deadly. The characters are strong and determined and have a long history as family and friends who support one another. The locales are terrific like the beach and hidden home. Suspense surrounds them via the inmate and the females are not told all that it entails, which infuriates them. Surprises, twists and love all come together for a truly wonderful book. The ending is all you could want and the many smiles throughout will satisfy.

Ok these books are inter connected but you could read as a standalone. If you read them in order you will have more of the back story.
Rowan was heartbroken when Sean up and left her to pick up the pieces he did have a good reason though.
Sean is back after a year in jail for hacking into a bank.
He has only ever loved Rowan his stepsister, so when they come face to face after all this time of course there are going to be words of hurt and anger on her lips and apologies and pain on his his. To bad when they get close again he has to leave her to protect her from dangerous people who want his skills and will use anything or anyone for leverage

This story had an interesting twist to it. II think that Sean's character really made for an interesting person to have in this story. It seems like his character had more depth to it than I first thought it would. After being out of jail from cyber crimes, he calls his stepsister Rowan to get a room for the night. She isn't happy about how he left the first time and wants to give him a piece of her mind. What is so cool is that she really has no idea that he left to protect her. These two have such passion between them that in between the danger, you get a really fun romantic read.

He left to protect her. But who will protect her from him now that he is back?

Sean is the third and last book in the Coded for Love series. This book pulled at my heartstrings as the characters have a history that is sad. But the passion and chemistry between them is palpable and sizzling hot. The story-line is solid and was fascinating as it held my attention. I enjoyed this last book the most of the three.

4 stars. Without errors 4.5

I will start with the negatives. Again like the last book. Way to many grammatical errors. Also i swear at one point Rowan would go to one extreme of hating Sean to the next being all lovey dovey. It definitely gave me whiplash. And last but not least. When they reminisce about their past they talked about the sex between them being so rough and tough but when it actually happened it was quite boring. Other than that it was a really good book. I loved the story plot but felt like the author was just ready to be done with the series.

London is Falling.
Sean is out to be a better man and stay on the clean path. He is not about to get hooked up with his past deeds. When Rowan sees Sean again she has misgivings about him. Once they get close, though? He disappears. No knowing her life is in danger for just being with Sean. Can he protect and keep her at the same time? Come follow their trail.

This is the 3rd book in this series and it was just as well-written as the others. The characters in this book (some of which we’ve met in the previous books) have depth, and their emotional journey keeps the story interesting. This was a very enjoyable read for me and I’m looking forward to more by this author.

This by far out does Draco’s but is equals with Rory’s. Rowen kept something from Sean that she’s been struggling to confess but can’t seem to find the words. Sean is dealing with shady men from his prison days that’s taking things too far and he needs to let his old shelf come out and take care of business.
Quick read when you get sucked into the story.

Sean and Rowan have a wonderful second chance in this third book in the coded for love series. Secrets, misunderstanding, danger... but their connection is solid. I was truly invested and really enjoyed all three books.

Getting out of jail for my crimes I call the one person that I could, my stepsister. Even though she wants to give him a piece of her mind there is no mistaking the chemistry between them.

I enjoyed Sean and Rowan's story, their relationship may have been on the forbidden side but they were good for each other, their connection and chemistry was strong. They were good together.
