I loved this change in story themes where the couple is already in love. He supported what she wanted to do even though he did not love it. They, of course, had issues to work through but they were wonderful together and I enjoyed their story.

Thumbs up!👍
Truly enjoyed Justin and Kiara. Been reading season 2 in order and so far this one is my favorite since #1 Adam. I love that Kiara is independent and strong willed. Love that she is Law Enforcement. Justin & she are definitely opposites that attract in a wonderfully explosive
manner. I love that despite their bickering they refuse to allow each other to sulk in silence with their issues unresolved for any length of time. Wonderful display of mutual respect, honesty with oneself and each other. Well done..👏

The Billionaire & The Detective
He was attracted to her from day one, and he pursued her , he thought it was a passing thing… As for her she didn’t understand why a man like Justin Kincaid wanted with her . Love doesn’t discriminate, the heart wants what the heart wants.
She loved her job and she is great at it, Justin would never asked her to leave her job, but the danger of her job played havoc on him … there will be conflicts, but they overcame & compromised.
Beautiful read

amateurish
Storyline would have been ok but the writing is very amateurish, almost adolescent. Author doesn’t have a good grip of English grammar, is annoyingly repetitive, misuses punctuation and has poor character development. The plot’s promise was lost to irritation over the poorly written and unedited medium.

Pretty Good
I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed this story as much as I did. If you haven’t had the chance to read this author’s work, I recommend giving this book a try. I truly enjoyed the fact that the main male character was a good person all the way through the story.

I'm sorry to say but this was an absolute piece of trash
It felt like I was reading a sequel to A book I had never heard of. That's only because it started off with them already together which is fine, it was just different. There were a lot of Errors throughout the book which is distracting. The biggest problem I have is the authors insistence on writing the guy into an absolute horrible human being. Justin is controlling, abusive , passive-aggressive and childish. Outside of sex you get no sense of connection between him and Kiara. They are definitely sexually obsessed with each other but the connection really doesn't go any further than that. They don't talk out problems, they just have sex. Whenever he gets mad at her, which is a lot, he pouts like a little baby and shuts her out by refusing to speak to her or touch her. Then when she reaches out to him and he feels that she has sufficiently begged for his attention, he has sex with her. He has absolutely no respect for what she wants or how she feels. She repeatedly begged him not to continue to buy her stuff because it makes you uncomfortable. He continues to do so because it amuses him when she gets upset. She repeatedly tell him how much she hates it doesn't want to be at the high-class functions that he orders her to go to but he just finds it amusing and orders her to go and even at one point telling her that it was the she was going and that was the end of the discussion. What a piece of trash. There are a couple times where he physically grabs her in anger. Reading the other reviews I don't see how anyone could like this couple. She was a strong independent woman but even then she was kind of a dumbass. I won't give away the ending but she really seems to have a death wish. Just dumb choices from her. Reading the other reviews I don't see how anyone could like this couple. She was a strong independent woman but even then she was kind of a dumbass. I won't give away the ending but he really seems do you have a death wish. However, having said all that my biggest problem with the book is that the word darling was used about 500 times. No one talks like that.

Love and law enforcement and love prevails!
Justin and Kiara were from two different worlds. She a cop and he a billionaire yet their relationship worked and grew. Justin worried about Kiara getting hurt on the job and his fears are realized when a crazed stalker fancying himself in love with Kiara tried to kill her once she and Justin married. Had the stalker succeeded he would have killed Kiara and her and Justin's unborn son. I am glad Kiara and their son survived and that they got the stalker. Further Kiara decided prior to the birth of their son to do more desk duty and after his birth she took an extended leave. Justin was outraged by the near loss of his wife and unborn son and was very happy when Kiara made adjustments to keep herself safe and this latest Member from Money has his beautiful and happy family. There is always so much to the various stories of these billionaires and their beautiful successful wives that to touch on everything would be tantamount to writing another book. Suffice it to say this was another enjoyable read and I am already looking ahead to the next Member from Money story. Justin is definitely another best seller!! I sense a bow coming on for you Katie so go ahead and take that well deserved bow!!!!

Loved it, Loved It
Wow, if I could give this 10 stars I would. This is such a wonderful twist from the other books in the series. Kiara is a cop, a civil servant. Justin is a billionaire they are already a couple. Kiara came from a Christian family, she knew that living with Justin went against everything she believed. But she loved him and he loved her. This book has murder, stalking, and attempted murder oh I forgot some really hot sex. Adding Justin to my book boyfriend list. 😉😉 Kudos to the author.

I must say I was conflicted about what rating I would give this book. Kiara got on my nerves so much I wanted to stop reading. She really wanted marriage but she was such a strong willed woman that there were plenty of times she did not take Justin’s feelings into consideration. It also didn’t seem as though she connected with the other women. It was as if she didn’t try or want to do or care about anything but her job. As for Justin, he showed how much he truly loved her. Overall, this was not the best from this author but I will continue on in this series.

Loved it!
Lord! Justin & Kiara were really a good match made in heaven! The love they had for each other flowed through the pages! I read this book a little too fast. Lol. Kiara put herself in so many dangerous situations as a cop & I didn’t blame Justin for being worried about her or angry with her when she did stupid things! Kiara really loved Justin & hated how mad he got with her, she always apologized & I loved that a lot! This book was great! Katie Dowe never disappoints! Can’t wait to read the book!

Intense nature love and suspense
Justin is a billionaire who falls for a regular detective who is an everyday, honest police officer who likes the simple way of life. They are true soul mates and Justin is weakened by his love for Kiara. But he's still a real man who let's no one's opinion come between their love for each other. Their passion is off the charts!! I couldn't put this book down until I finished it!!! Wonderful read.

Darling I'm out
This is the story of Justin and Kiara they're already in love, dating. Kiara's just like the other women different occupation different name same built, same height. Kiara is a detective and so that adds a little bit to the story. It's very hard when you're reading one-dimensional kind of characters which I feel the females are in these books. I did like the storyline in this book. I'm going to get off the ride right now.

New and fresh
Your stories are getting better and better, more people better story line's and even a bit of thriller. Keira was a heard headed stubborn cop who thought .she was all that that's why she got the bullet. Love the patience Justin had. Good man. More like this is coming I so hope.

I loved reading the interactions between Justin and the Detective that he is so madly in love with. The surprise wedding was certainly a bonus!! Kiara didn't know what to expect but I was glad that she was able to get what she was hoping for in the end! This was an awesome way to express lovers from different worlds coming together and making the impossible, possible.

Oh My!
Good instincts will serve you well in life and love. Having a serial killer as a member of your church boggles the mind. How far will you go for love, as in being obsessed? Kiara just couldn’t win, or did she?

This story was pretty good. I'm not sure the ending made sense. Why of all times you do what you know better to do. That part was crazy and made no sense....But hey.....

Very good story that really shows the internal issues people face when you love someone who puts their life on the line on a daily basis and how hard it is to commit to love that person.

Excellent reading
Storyline was familiar but entertaining. The plot had great drama with mystery of unknown love interest. The love of both characters was tested.

Nice read
Was little different from the others. I enjoyed it. Some parts were rushed and questioned unanswered but for the most part was a good read.

I live the fact that Justin supports her job. Mire relationships should have that kind of unfiltered love and support.
