The Club Girl Diaries #3
Hadley
People change, it's a fact of life.
Hadley found that out the hard way after her husband came home one day with darkness in his eyes that she'd never seen before.
Realizing that she couldn't allow him to drag her into the shadows, she watched him walk away, thinking she’d be free to move on with her life.
But now she was on the run, seeking safety from a man she once vowed to love forever.
Becoming a club girl for the Brothers by Blood MC guaranteed her protection, and at the same time, allowed her to embrace her sexuality with no judgments or guilt.
Only things weren't as simple as she'd anticipated. She never expected Leo and his curly haired daughter to steal her heart, and for emotions to come into play.
Could she risk her life on the chance he might feel the same?
Leo was the Sargent at Arms for the Brothers by Blood MC.
It was his job to make sure the club was safe and their security tight.
He’d been to hell and back. Losing his wife Kim, after the birth of their daughter, had broken his heart to the point where he thought it was irreparable. She’d been his everything since he was a teenager, and he was determined to never lose her memory.
With the club around him and his baby girl at his side, he’d become content with life alone.
When Hadley showed up, he wasn't quite sure what to make of the self-confident, sweet natured brunette. He was drawn to her—a pull he struggled to escape.
He wanted her, but he was afraid to get too close, not sure that his heart was strong enough to let someone else in.
When danger comes knocking, they need to make a decision—protect themselves and move on, or stand together and risk it all.

Overall Opinion: This was ok. I didn't read the Blizzard book that I'm guessing was in between Chelsea and this one, so I did feel like I missed some important things a few times. I sometimes felt confused by the drama that was going on and knowing who the important players were. I love books with kids and single parents, so this was right up my alley. I didn't get upset by the dead wife hang-up, but it definitely was there in this one and might bother some readers. I wouldn't necessarily say that the h was second best, but she (and the H) both acknowledged more than once that they would continue to honor the dead wife's memory. That is sweet for sure, but it did feel a little overdone and repetitive at times tbh. The ending wasn't enough for me either, as it left me with lots of unanswered questions and simply not enough to call it a HEA.
Brief Summary of the Storyline: This is Hadley and Leo's story. Hadley is working at the mc as a club whore, and she meets Leo after he has been gone on a run for a while. The sparks fly instantly, but Hadley understands her role in the club and Leo has a daughter that he needs to think about. There are some events that throw them together quicker than they expected, but they then become an item and fall in love. There is some typical mc drama, some sexy times, and a few sad and sweet moments...and they get a HFN ending.
POV: This alternated between Hadley and Leo's POV.
Overall Pace of Story: Good. I never skimmed, and I thought it flowed well.
Instalove: No. They do develop feelings quickly, but I wouldn't call it instalove.
H rating: 4 stars. Leo. He was a good mixture of alpha biker and sweet -- especially when we got to experience him with his daughter.
h rating: 4 stars. Hadley. She was kind of badass. I liked how she can go from being a sassy sharpshooter to a sweet motherly figure for the H's daughter.
Sadness level: Low/moderate. There is a sad scene towards the end, but I personally didn't tear up -- but I can see where some might.
Push/Pull: Yes
Heat level: Moderate. They have pretty good chemistry and scenes.
Descriptive sex: Yes.
Safe sex: Yes and no. Some scenes mention condom use and others don't (that I remember). I don't remember any mention of past practices for either the h or H.
OW/OM drama: Yes
Sex scene with OW or OM: Yes
Cheating: No...well, yes I guess.
Separation: No
Possible Triggers: Yes
Closure: This had ok closure, but I wanted more! I had some unanswered questions at the end that left me hanging. I'd call it a HFN ending.
How I got it: It was part of my kindle unlimited subscription.
Safety: I'd say that this is either Safe with exception or Not Safe depending on personal preferences.

This one was much better then I thought it was going to be. I really liked and now I just want to read the next book.

So many feels in 1 book!
Cuteness, happiness, sorrow, anticipation, angst and hotness!
Hadley and Leo sitting in a tree (or on a Harley) K I S S I N G (or ermmm....bumping uglies!)
Time to deal with what Hadley has been running from and it's all done in fantastic biker style.
Macy just stole my heart but 2 others have also stolen more than my love...they have stolen my lust! Tonight I will dream about me in a love triangle with Angelo and Ham because I want them both (well I want their stories, same thing right?!)
Another brilliant 5 star read from this author!

October 9, 2016Story about a club whore.
I don't enjoy stories with any type of whore male or female but the fact that this is his or her job is just a BIG NO!
It may be a great story but it's not my kind of heroine and a hero that goes for that is not for me either!
He has a daughter also, WOW!
Everything they will do together I will see her doing that for cash with loads of other guys from his own club.
It's not special and it's meaningless
Yuck for me personally!

TITLE: Hadley
SERIES: (The Club Girl Diaries)
AUTHOR: Addison Jane
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
RELEASED: July 22, 2016
MY RATING: 5 STARS
I am a fairly new follower of the author Addison Jane who now has become one of my favorite authors her writing is great. The Club Girl Diaries Series is about the women who belong to the Brothers by Blood Motorcycle Club, these woman aren't the girlfriends or old ladies of the members these are the club girls who are around to satisfy the men in the MC Club. There are rules and benefits to becoming a club girl and belonging to the Brothers by Blood.
Drinking, partying and all the sex they want while being protected, because the Brother's by Blood MC protect what is theirs. I really like how Addison brings in the personalities of each of the club girls in this series a very different prospective into what I have normally read about the club girls in motorcycle clubs. These three books in this series are all great reads.
Hadley (The Club Girl Diaries Book 3) joins the Brother's by Blood because she is in need of protection. Her husband who was an undercover FBI agent has gone over to the dark side and seems to have the FBI fooled into believing he is still undercover. Hadley enjoys the club, she has no regrets in becoming a club girl. She knows one of these days her husband may find her so having the Brothers by Blood protecting her is the only way she can feel safe.
Leo who is the clubs Sargent of Arms is a single father, losing his wife in child birth. Raising his daughter and protecting the club are the most important things in his life. Leo is a hot, sexy, and strong, if you have read Harmony and/or Chelsea the first two books in this series you have already met Leo and his daughter. When Leo and Hadley meet there is a connection, but Leo knows she is a club girl and belongs to the club, even though he struggles watching her with his brothers. Leo is still in love with his wife and unsure of his feelings for Hadley but knows he has some moving on is not easy.
Hadley and Leo are a great combination and you have hope for them right from the beginning, but of course there are some major obstacles in their way. Leo loving his wife and feeling like he may be betraying her? Hadley's husband is looking for her and people around her may not be safe. This book is full of drama, suspense, even some emotional moments. One can only hope for a happy ever after ending for these two.
Hadley is a must read, I would say this whole series should be read. I have rated Hadley 5 stars it is a fantastic read and one of my favorites in this series so far.
I highly recommend this series and Addison Jane's other books.

I've been waiting for this book since the beginning, and I'm so glad I got to read an ARC. From the first sentence read, I couldn't put it down. I love Hadley. She has all the right makings of a club girl. She's strong, loving, and protective. But Leo, sigh, he has been my guy from the start. Each book I say I love him, but this one did me in. He's the prefect father, lover and "brother". All the makings of a perfect Alpha male.
Their story is full of dangerous turns and twists, torn yet drawn, and sweet and sizzling. I cried, a lot. Yet in the middle of crying, there would be something that made me laugh. My favorite book to date. I can't wait for more.

This series just keeps getting better. This book was amazing. Leo is one of my favourites, so I was pleased to see this is his book. It was a great story, but have a huge box of Kleenex near by...it's a book that will leave you with ugly tears! There are so many spin offs and characters to build more books on. I can't wait to read Ham's book, and Eagle's, and Skin's, and...never mind, just hoping from a lot more from this author!!

The Phoenix Club Girl Diaries is how I found Addison Jane. When I finished reading the two books in that series, I jumped back to start at the beginning with The Club Girl Diaries series because the worlds are interconnected. Actually, all her worlds are interconnected so I’m looking forward to going back and reading these connections because I’m just OCD about things like that LOL
I didn’t not like the series, but I was very unimpressed with the storylines. For me, and maybe that comes from reading so much, they were too predictable and the inconsistencies in the plot were something I just couldn’t get past. Some of the editing errors throughout the stories are huge. Everything from grammar to simple spelling to using Columbian instead of Colombian (as an example) ran ramped thru every book. Some of the books touched on some intense life circumstances but yet I felt no real tug of emotion when I read them.
Since I’ve read her recent work, I can safely say that most of this has improved with the newer stories, at least of the ones I’ve read. The Phoenix series reads on a much higher lever than this one, in my opinion, so I’m looking forward to reading her future work and see how she continues to connect her worlds.

I love the previous books in this series as much as I loved this one.
I loved how strong Hadley was as a character. She knew and was completely comfortable with herself and her role in the club. She owned her sexuality and being a beautiful women which I total admire in a character. I also loved how down to earth and easy to talk to she came across, she was just the right mixture or sweet&sassy. Her instant connection with Macy was absolutely adorable and the chemistry between her and Leo!!! Yummy.
Leo was a great lead for me to though. He knew very quickly that he wanted Hadley and did even try to deny his feeling for her which I loved!! His little scenes with Macy were just precious also.
OK so without sounding like a total ASSHOLE... I hate story's with dead wife's/husbands and yes that's a huge horrible statement to make but I just feel it's unfinished business and the leading female has to live up to the dead spouses perfect picture like a second choice. I know again it's horrible but you can't hate somebody who died and has done absolutely nothing wrong!!! You know that the h/H would never be together if the spouse hadn't died and for me that's big shoes to fill. It's easier to hate bitches and assholes you know?? ..
With that said... Addison does an amazing job of making sure you know that Hadley isn't just a fill in or replacement, that she is her own person in that relationship and even though Kim's was a wonderful person and was truly loved by everybody, Hadley is also loved by everybody and deserving of happiness with Leo. Also.. Leo was great with that situation to.. There was no awkwardness surrounding his passed wife and he loved her dearly and yes he felt a little guilty that he was starting to love someone else with just as much heart as he had loved Kim but he wasnt shitty about it .. And never made it out like Hadley was filling a hole. And Addison done a feminominal job with that story.
Can I just say the scene with slider had me baling like a baby!!! So freaking sad:(
Loved hearing for all the past characters and some new ones to.. These guys don't fuck around.
I love how original this series is and honestly I haven't read anything like it. I love the way the club girls aren't made out to be the monsters in the story it so refreshing. The whole club dinamic is great and I can't wait to read what's next.

Just finished my arc and Addison kicks ass with this series. You have to click these up. It's refreshing reading about the Mc life through the "club girls " POV. Full review on release day.
This series seriously rocks my socks! I devour each book in one sitting. It has everything I love in an MC setting only through each club girls POV. I believe each one gets better and better.
These are a must read!

This one was interesting, Hadley not really a club girl by choice, but more because she needs protection and the club was a good place to hide and she didn't mind the duties of a club girl. She fit in good with the Brothers and the women. I thought it interesting how some of the relationships she cultivated where, especially with one brother who was hiding so much, when he could have used the support of his family. Even worse was how things ended there. You know the brother would have been proud of what happened if given the choice.
Hadley and Leo were cute together. They danced around each other for a bit, but once Leo had his sight set on her things moved right along. Hadley was also great with Maya, a good thing too since she and Leo were a packaged deal.
The drama towards the end was crazy! I hated how it went down, but it was nice that going forward what Hadley was hiding from didn't matter any more, the threat was gone. Now they can work on building their family.

J'avoue, il y a pas mal de trucs qui n'étaient pas clairs dans ce livre parce que j'ai sauté quelques livres mais j'ai bien aimé la romance entre Hadley et Leo et j'ai beaucoup aimé toute l'histoire avec l'agent du FBI corrompu =D
J'ai hâte de lire le livre avec Eaggle et j'avoue que je ne serais pas contre une romance entre le mystérieux Angelo et Emerson =D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I must admit there is quite a bit of stuff that was not clear in this book because I skipped a few books but I liked the romance between Hadley and Leo and I liked the whole story with the corrupt FBI agent very much =D
Can't wait to read the book with Eaggle and I must admit I wouldn't be mind a romance between the mysterious Angelo and Emerson =D

This series just keeps getting better and this one hits you like an avalanche with all the emotions you will experience with Hadley and Leo's story. This book will have you on the edge of your seat as Leo and the brothers protect one of theirs. One part of this story will break your heart and have you in tears. This book is full of awakenings, for Hadley it is as she realises loving her stepfather doesn't mean she has to forget her Dad, for Leo it is discovering that loving someone else will repair the cracks in his heart from the death of his wife. Ultimately this is a beautiful love story of both the couple and the brotherhood of the MC.

This series is so phenomenal! I have loved every book and Leo and Hadley's story was no different.
I love how each story in the series has a unique storyline, yet all the guys play a part and all their woman join in. Leo deserved to find love after his gigantic loss and Hadley was the perfect combo of sweet and strong. I did get emotional when the club suffered a big loss, but the MC life is raw.
I highly recommend this book and series. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Well I've read the whole series but this is my first review on this Author why you might ask .... Well I didn't want to miss anything I wanted to get to the next book & the next... etc . From the beginning these books drew me in, these books are a little different as in its club girls finding there guys within the club.. Their not the girls the guys use then find there one from the outside .. These girls ar'nt pansy girls they can hold there own... Each book up to this point as been fantastic I've thoroughly enjoyed each one with them getting better each time as the story evolved .The twist are good , the s€x is hot , the drama is most deffently there, lots of sweetness from the children , the guys do put their two cents in on that department, Alpha men all over the place & I'm hoping theirs more awesome to come with others guys like Eagle, Ham... ( now that could be a story & a half with whom he had his eyes on :-) ) Skins .... this list could go mighty long .... So Get going Addison Jane I'm Excited to keep reading this Awesome Series. Well Worth Your Time and Money..... So Get One Clicking People. :-)

Addison did it again!!
Wow! I am completely blown away by this book. It's hard to post this review because there is so much I want to say but I don't want to give anything away because that is part of the reason this book is so amazing. You just don't see things coming and it grabs you when it hits! I was honored to have the opportunity to receive an ARC of this book. This entire series has my heart but Hadley's book, is by far my favorite so far! It was touching, passionate, heart breaking, sexy as hell, on the edge of your seat suspenseful, sinfully amazing! Those are just a few of the words to describe this book. I did not stop reading this book once I started. I laughed. I cried because my heart broke. I cried because my heart soared. I felt like I was a part of this story from beginning to end. This book will blow your mind it the greatest ways. It was beautifully written. This is a MUST READ!!! Even if you aren't a huge MC fan you WILL love this book because its a story of family, love, brotherhood, determination, overcoming, passion, and healing. You will not be disappointed!

OMG I just love this club girl series...I mean wow...the first chapter gave me all kinds of tingles and I wanted to just sign up right now to join them...LOL!
As with the first two books in the series, we have a heroine with issues (emotional and personal baggage) who hooks up with a club brother and they fight to make it a more permanent relationship. It is most every club girl's dream to be claimed as an old lady eventually and although there is resistance at first, Leo, the single dad and closed off emotionally man that he is, must learn to not let his feelings for the dead mother of his child prevent him from loving again, and Hadley is just the right woman for him to do just that. Danger, lots of steamy sex and a sad storyline involving a dying club brother makes this a very heartwarming and exciting addition to the series and I was very happy to get to read it as my Prime free book of the month.

Addison Jane is becoming one of my new favorite authors. I know she's not "new" but she's new to me. I am loving this series so much. Hadley is my favorite so far. I love love loved her and Leo together. I think I have cried in all of the books thus far, but this one was an all out tear-fest for me. The booked tugged on all the heartstrings.
For now, I'm moving on to the next book in the series. Can't wait!

I received this for an honest review.. First off I have to say as soon as this amazing story hit my kindle I had to devour it and devour it I did..
This book did NOT disappoint. THis book is Leo and Hadley's and what a freaking story it was.. LOVED every minute of this..
This author just pulled me right into this story and to say that I loved it would be putting it mildly..
More review to come closer to release...

4*
When I bread the ma!me on this book, I was a bit concerned, because we didn't have the same connection with Hadley, as we did the other books, but it flowed well. The characters are all addictive. The stories are always page turners and it just works. Some things shouldn't work, but this writer has a way of making it work.
I do look forward to reading the next book. I'll be lost when this series is finished.

Attraction, Secrets, Betrayals, Subterfuge, Grief and Love
While this could probably be read as a stand-alone, I HIGHLY recommend that it be read in series order. There are multiple reoccurring characters, concurrent and consecutive timelines, references to scenes / content relevant to the current storyline that cannot be included, and overarching themes.
** If you have not read the previous stories in the series, the following may include spoilers **
⛔️ Contains references to, or detailed scenes, with subject matter that may be a trigger or offensive to some, including: adult language; derogatory terms; mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, PTSD; steamy adult intimate scenes with dominance, submission, restraints, sensory deprivation, spanking for pleasure and punishment, etc.; violence stereotypical of the genre such as: kidnapping, abduction, murder, assault, theft, torture, fighting, drug use, drug manufacturing, drug distribution, money laundering, gun running, rape, human trafficking, coercion, blackmail, threats, subterfuge, betrayal, domestic violence, etc.
Even though it was mentioned above, the series contains references and/or detailed scenes with mental, physical and sexual abuse of women and children and mental health challenges.
There are a few grammatical issues, primarily incorrect word choice (of vs off), missing words, incorrect punctuation, and extra inserted words, but nothing difficult to interpret. There are also a few words utilized that are not commonplace in American slang, such as skulled and forwent. I am mentioning these for readers such as myself that visualize the story as it is read, because errors or unfamiliar terms interrupt the flow.
Hadley was actually introduced at the end of Blizzard (the previous story in the series). She was a stripper and worked with the club formed by Judge and Mary. Her husband is a FBI agent, Simon, that went off the rails when he started a new assignment.
Simon got a taste for the power and darker things handled by the Las Vegas syndicate that he was assigned to infiltrate. When Hadley refused to go with him after he returned back to Arkansas vastly different than when he left, he assaulted her. She filed for divorce but he refused to sign and then started sending her packages.
This sent Hadley into hiding and Optimus and the Athens’ chapter agreed to take her on as a Club Girl. She started a couple of weeks ago while Leo, their Sergeant At Arms (SAA) was out of town working with another location to set up a security business, his specialty. Hadley is getting along with everyone and is surprised by how quickly she is starting to care for everyone.
Leo returns to the clubhouse and Hadley meets Macy, Leo’s daughter, for the first time. She stayed with her Aunt while he was out of town. Macy woke up and was standing in the hall calling for her Dad, so Hadley takes her to find him. When they meet there is an immediate attraction. They flirt, but there is no time for them to “get together” then, so Hadley entertains Slider.
Even though he has never been jealous of anyone before, Leo feels like punching Slider when he finds the two of them in Hadley’s bedroom …
Hadley could tell that Leo was upset, but she had made Slider a promise to keep his secret … This may just be more complicated than it seemed.

Hadley - had been married for 6 years to one of the FBI agents who worked with Judge now a Club Girl for the Brothers by Blood MC hoping for their protection
Camo - member of Brothers by Blood MC
Kev - member of Brothers by Blood MC, ex policeman who was known for his target shooting skills
Slider -member of Brothers by Blood MC
Chelsey - had been a Club Girl and now was the Pres' Old Lady
Rose - too hard to explain her past BUT she was now the Old Lady to the club VP. She had met Hadley when she was part of a sting on another club's member, Edge
Kat - works at X-Rated, the strip club owned by the MC
Leo - Sgt at Arms for the MC and father of Macy
Macy - Leo's daughter whose mother, Kim, had died in childbirth and now lived at the MC with him
Carly - Leo's sister in law who, at times, looked after Macy
Meyah - Carly's oldest daughter
**********
While Slider and Hadley are in her room she find out he isn't getting an erection like he should have. Then she sees what looks like a pin prick on his stomach. When she asks him what it is he tells her, in anger and frustration, to "Just leave it alone."
She knew what was going on. Her father had died of Prostate Cancer and he had this exact red pin pricks in his stomach . . . they came from hormone shots they had to take as part of their treatment.
Honestly, each book Addison Jane writes gets better than the last. So I am going to stop writing and go back to reading.
Hoping you read this series and enjoy them as much as I have.

Quick Info
Standalone/Cliffhanger?: Standalone
Part of a Series?: Yes
POV: Hadley and Leo
----------------------------------
Meeting the Characters
Leo - A single father whose little girl goes between him and his late wife's sister. He wants to move on from his wife but feels like he can't.
Hadley - An FBI or ex FBI agent placed in the protection of Blood by Brothers or what ever it is.
----------------------------------
What happens?
From the Blizzard book we meet Hadley as she is part of the rouse for Rose. We later find out shes hiding from her FBI husband who has turned to double agent. The bikers from her gang ask to place her in the brother's protection as she needs to be hidden away from possible discovery from the FBI as her husband is considered to still be on their side.
Leo falls for Hadley but doesn't want to betray his wife's memory by feeling more than just sexual feelings for a club girl. He just wants to be a family with his little girl and protect her from anything that could harm her. Of course it doesn't go smoothly and Leo and Hadley end up on the run from her husband and his gang I guess you would call it.
Final thoughts
She wasn't my favourite girl. I still liked her and I thought her and Leo were very sweet. I did have a cry for Leo and Macy during him talking about losing her and that sort of stuff.

Another great in this series
This was perhaps not quite as good as previous books but still a brilliant read. Leo sergeant at arms for the Brothers by Blood has been through hell losing his wife who was his high school sweetheart during childbirth leaving him with a small daughter Macy the club loves her and helps with her care along side an aunt, he believes he can never love again but he is a great guy and just needs the right woman to come along. Hadley comes along and turns his world upside down, she needs protection from her estranged husband who is a double dealing FBI man looking to take over a very dirty violent gang. From the moment they see each other they have instant attraction and even though she is a club girl he wants her for his own. She strikes up a great friendship with Slider one of the Brothers who confided in her that he had cancer but doesn't want the club to know she keeps his secret until it eventually comes out. Leo claims her and she loves his little girl like she is her own. Eventually her husband finds her and kidnaps her and tried to kill her but Slider saves her losing his own life in the process. There is a lot of action in this but also a lot of emotion and it's difficult to keep dry eyes especially regarding Slider his cancer and his death. A really great read.

You really don't want to miss out on this read I loved it so much its been awhile since a book has made me cry like this one did . Their was a big shocker that literately tore my heart out I wont say what it was but it was truly heartbreaking . I loved the connection that Hadley and Leo had they had off the charts chemistry . Hadley was such a beautiful person not just on the outside but on the inside she was really caring and had the confidence that I wish I had she had a lot of respect for the club and what they stand for she shown loyalty even when a certain misunderstanding hurt her and someone else and she showed such love for Leos little girl . Leo was just WOW super hot hes an amazing brother and father who would put his life on line to save his family and lets not forget hes such a DILF LOL hes a great father to little girl who idealizes him. I loved seeing the couples again they were really funny and feisty I cant wait to see what more is to come . received a copy for honest review

Hadley is book 3 in the Club Girl Diaries series by Addison Jane. The more I read this series the more I am engrossed in the lives of the MC and the girls.
Hadley is now a club girl for the Brothers by Blood MC after her stint with the FBI agents who were posing as a MC in Blizzard's book. Her husband who is an FBI agent that has turned dirty and left her a few years ago is now out to get her back, or kill her, that would be fine with him too. As a Club Girl she can have fun with no strings attached sexually but also be under the protection of the club. Then she meets Leo and his adorable little girl Macey.
As things heat up with her husband trying to find he things also heat up with Leo. They end up on the run to try and keep Hadley and Macey safe after someone shoots up Leo's truck that she is driving with his baby girl in the back seat. The longer the 2 are together the hotter the flames between them grow. Leo feels guilt for falling for Hadley, his heart is still with his wife who passed away giving birth.
If he can get past his guilt and they can survive Hadley's husband there just may be something there.

Hadley came from Blizzard's parents club. Her FBI husband Simon had gone deep undercover and when he returned he was not the man she married, this man made her flesh creep. When he literally tried to drag her out of the house with him she was rescued by Skins.
When Simon started sending parcels and then the rumors circulating that he wanted her back because he couldn't take up leadership unless his wife was with him; Judge decided she would hide in plain sight as one of Optimus's club girls.
Hadley fit in well between the club girls and the old ladies. Slider was really into her but she uncovers his secret (tissues needed). But it was Leo, Leo who had lost his wife during the birth of their daughter who was really smitten and struggled with his feelings.
There was also other threads running through the book, a sad one involving Kit and Harmony and there is still no final decision on Jayla for Blizzard and Rose.
The sad event at the end of the books brings more brothers from other charters, more books maybe??

This book is one I have been waiting for from the start. I loved Leo and everything that he was throughout the first three in the series and his story did not let me down. He gave me all the feels and had me wanting to beg for more. Hadley was an amazing glib girl and didn’t complain about what she was doing which I loved. She was so strong but also understanding with Leo’s baggage. Add in her own complicated past.... the wild ride we took in this book was one o won’t forget.
The twists and turns took me by surprise. I can say that there were things I didn’t see coming and when they did I wanted to scream. Seeing the secondary characters was a fun ride also. I lobe them all so getting updates as each book goes keeps them alive on my heart. I have to say that this book was harder then the others. Book 1 would be the closest to breaking my heart but this one gutted me. I plan to read more because this MC and the girls have really stolen my heart. 4 stars because again I feel like everything wasn’t super tied up, but I they are in other books to come. #2OCCJD
