”She lies down, pulling me over her. On her. With her. For the rest of our lives.”

Wow this series was a roller coaster lots of ups and downs but I’m so glad that Eva and Will got their happy ending. That epilogue was so precious and it did make me tear up a little.

I definitely recommend this series if your looking for a steamy romance with twists and turns. This is book 3 so you definitely need to read the first two books of Eva and Will’s story before reading this

This third book is the satisfying ending you needed from this series, but if you think the twists are turns are over - you are wrong.

Their lives have been so complicated, you can’t help but enjoy their happiness as they think they are finally done fighting for their relationship. But alas, all is not what it seems.

Living your best life is very hard when you are bombarded with messages that you can’t believe with your own eyes. And, Eva goes to a very dark and lonely place for a while, and it’s hard to understand how she functions so well. I have to admit that I was surprised that Eva forgave Will so easily, but her explanation totally made sense and showed how well she knows Will.

Will and Eva are so great together and it’s so amazing to watch them function as a couple with no hiding or pretenses. And the steamy scenes are so hot, you will definitely need a fan!!

Eva understands Will on such a elemental level and in order to have their happy ending, she has to trade on the love and trust that they’ve established. The times they are separated are hard to read, because you know they are both hurting. But I love that it’s Eva who saves the day, even after all the guys say “I’m handling it” so many times you want to punch them. Girl power!!

And the epilogue. Oh my, just the sweetest!

I received a copy of book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.

With a ghost form the past hell-ben on revenge, Will and Eva are the targets of an elaborate plan designed to tear them apart. History is set to repeat itself unless someone can break the cycle: Lust, love, loss, repeat. When hearts are made to be broken and secrets are only meant to be whispered on pillows, trust is a valuable commodity. But is the price too high? To keep the past where it belongs they must both tread their own paths, face their own demons and wage their own wars. But will it be enough to bring them back together?

This is the third and final book in the Lay Me Bare Series. You have to read Lay Me Bare and Bared To You before reading Bare All. I have to say this is a great ending full of twist and turns that will keep you on your toes along with Will and Eva. These two have had quiet the complicated relationship and now they think they are home free and can bask in their happiness. After all how can you live a happy life when your getting tons and tons of messages that are very unbelievable and this sends Eva into a very dark and lonely place for a bit of time. I don't even know how she functions as well as she does. I don't even know how she was able to forgive Will so easily. I don't want to ruin anything for you. This was as sweet couple with a even sweeter story but you have to work to get there. I loved this series and am so glad I read it.

This is the third and final book in the Lay Me Bare Series. Wow this has been quite the series and Eva and Will took me on one wild ride. An emotional roller coaster for sure with no shortage of twists or surprises. For full enjoyment and understanding you need to read the first two books. A steamy romance that will grab your attention right at the beginning. Great characters, exciting story line and a good read that I read as a complimentary advance copy via Grey's Promotion and voluntarily chose to review.

Title: Bare All (Book 3 of Lay Me Bare Series)⁣
Author: L.M. Allen⁣

🅡🅔🅥🅘🅔🅦: ⁣
Bare All is a suspenseful spicy romance that follows Eva and Will. This third books in the series gives them the ending they deserve, but is full of twists and turns throughout.⁣

Eva and Will are wonderful together, with a relationship that is full of spice. I would recommend reading the other books in the series in order to understand the events that take place in the book.⁣

I really enjoyed this book. Plus, I love a good story line, and this story really tied together Lay Me Bare books 1 and 2 well. It was a page turner despite all of the significant obstacles that arose between Eva and Will, preventing them from being together.

LM Allen writes well, with underlying plot development, twists and turns and surprises that I didn’t see coming. I feel like this book was truly a rollercoaster of Will and Eva, but with romance novels (one of the many reasons I love this genre), they were able to get their happy ending! The Epilogue was wonderful and truly left me with all the happy feels.

This is the third book in the series, and to understand the plot of this book, I HIGHLY recommend you read the books in order to get the most from the plot twists and turns.

I 100% Loved this trilogy.
Starting with book #1 Lay me Bare.

We met Eva and will. Eva the single mother, event planner superwoman!
Will the hotel owner, Ex Honey trapper/owner.

Will's company was hired to Trap Eva. She had become the untrappable!! Curious as to why none of his employees could get the job done. Will decided to check her out for himself. With one look at her, he was stunned. The more he watched her the more curious he became.

Eva met Will and was just as attracted to him and fought the attraction as well. It was pointless they were both falling.

In Book 2 Bared to you its just as good. With this book being from Will's POV. It was so good to read and essentially answered some questions that I had.

Now This book Bare All.
I was over the freaking moon to see the ending. But I won't mention THAT! You will have to wait to read it for yourself I can't give it away! LOL

But....this book was super intense. I absolutely loved the storyline not just in book #3 but the whole series.
It had a unique feel to it!
I was gripped from start to finish and spent my whole weekend devouring these 3 books.

I definitely recommend this trilogy.
This author is absolutely one to look out for, I see good things coming.

I received this book in exchange for an HONEST review! 😊

This series has been so great, but this book, this was the best of the series. What an emotional roller coaster. I was completely heartbroken for Eva for the first third of the book. Her entire world, everyone she loved and trusted, completely let her down in the biggest way, and it felt so hopeless. As things started to turn, it was interesting to see how she reacted to each revelation and twist. To each person she had loved and trusted. Her emotions and reactions were so real and raw. Then we ride to the top of that hill, and are immediately plunged into another breathtaking drop, waiting to see how this is going to all work itself out when everything seems to be going to completely wrong. Through it all, even when things seemed the most hopeless, Eva and Will were the heart of this story. I only wish we had Will’s side of the story. After a full book of his POV, which I absolutely loved, I missed it here. I hope we get it. There are enough gaps provided where it would easily work as well without feeling like a complete rehash of events. That said, this was an excellent and fitting finish to their story. Full of drama and emotion, twists and surprises, I devoured this book, and didn’t want to put it down. I also would love to see more about Davey and Nikki - there’s a bigger story there, and it seems very intriguing!!

Ms. Allen is a new to me author.
So I did not no what to expect of her writing style, her plots or the characters.
I’m very happy to say I loved everything.
Great writing that had me addicted to each page.
The characters are wonderful with complexity to them.
And the storyline and plot to this book and the other two books of the trilogy had me on pins and needles.
I was devouring all the words and enjoying the twists and turns in the plot.
This series is a definite page turner.
Even though Bare Me is the last book it still had surprises along the way.
I loved the development of Eva and Will.
They grew as individuals and as a couple.
Seeing the bond and trust that has becoming stronger and stronger was heartwarming.
And their chemistry, passion and lust was sizzling and steamy.
I really enjoyed reading their story and their journey.
And I’m over the moon I found an amazing new author.

This is the third book in the Lay Me Bare Series. This installment is full of heartbreaking drama, and angst, filled with secrets, and unpredictable twists and turns. I loved it!! Eva and Will's story is brilliantly written, and captivating. The characters are wonderful. Eva is such a beautiful character, so strong, loving, caring, and supportive. Will is very handsome. The cast of supporting characters is impressive. I liked the characters, the mystery, and the little suspense. I HIGHLY recommend this trilogy.

Will and Eva have been targeted by what seems like multiple people making it difficult for these two to have a normal relationship. Things seem to be looking up for Will and Eva and they are planning their forever when ghost of their pasts enter to turn things upside down. With trust issues lingering and someone hellbent on ruining their happiness will Will and Eva be able to trust and finally figure out who is behind this revenge plot meant to destroy their happiness? The twists and turns mixed with some steam were the perfect ending to this trilogy. A great read for sure.

This is the third and final book in this series and Will and Eva’s journey continues. Will and Eva need to face their demons head on as they become targets of an elaborate plan to tear them apart. This is a well written emotional roller coaster, which is intense and filled with betrayal, revenge, secrets, heartbreak, twists, trust, surprises, and love, which leads to a steamy and riveting page turner. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

This book is the conclusion to Will and Eva’s story and all I have to say is, hang on! The twists and turns kept coming in this story and their lives are made that much harder when people from their pasts keep trying to hurt them. While there is a happy ending, you will experience a moment or two questioning the madness of how they get there.

This book should not be considered a standalone, but the entire series is worth the time to read just for that ending. Thumbs up!

Eva and Will's story continues in book 3. For me, this would have been better told in both POVs. Because Will knowing that he is a mark made decisions that just blew my mind. He should have known better. Eva frustrated me because **SPOILER** she just instantly forgives Will for what he did. She so strong and fierce professionally but she is so wishy washy when it comes to Will. It drives me nuts. I did enjoy the story line of the honey traps and not really knowing who the real mark is.

Book 3 and hopefully not the last of the “Lay Me Bare” series wraps up beautifully. Will and Eva’s love story continue lots of drama a little mystery and a side of angst. A perfect recipe for a good romance that will give you some sleepless nights. Can’t wait to see what other great stories this author will tell.

Loved it

I loved it. But I must admit it was a bit confusing. It seemed to skip & studder at times, and I found myself going back a few pages, thinking I missed something. All & all I loved the story theme
