Unconditional

Jump #3

by Kelly Kelsey

Thalia: I thought that we had won. Thought we were going to begin our happily ever after. I was wrong. So very wrong. Melody was always one step ahead and we were naive to think otherwise. Now I have a new life one that doesn’t include the man I love and desire. I’ve lost a part of myself, and am no longer the innocent girl I was. And then one moment changes everything. I have one last shot at making it. Of getting everything I desire. Will love conquer all? Or will we both fall at the final jump?

Theo: I had everything I ever wanted in the palm of my hand until Melody destroyed me once again. I never saw it coming. She ripped me apart and forced my Piccola away. But now I am back with vengeance. I have one chance to get my girl. I am in it to win it and I never lose. This will be the hardest competition of my life, but I am willing to do anything. My Piccola is mine. I just have to make her see it.

"Piccola. I love you more than anything in the whole universe. I know our story hasn't been easy, but I would do it over and over again if it means having you. You are the other half of me. My soulmate. My heart."

ARC review

Oh my! This book was fantastic! Unconditional is the third and final book in the Jump series by Kelly Kelsey, and it takes place right after what went down in book two. This series is an emotional one, and it will make you cry, smile, and want to throw your kindle... But it really is an amazing series that I highly recommend!

Theo and Thaila have grown so much in this series, and even after everything they have been through their love for each other never changes. Their relationship is a very messy one, and it's not an easy journey for them. There is so much that went down in this book that I honestly never saw coming, and of course I won't spoil anything, but I will say that there is something that happened and I am really glad it ended up being a lie... You will know what I mean when you read it.. Ugh, Theo is the sweetest guy and he has changed so much, and well, I am very glad! His character development is amazing, and the love he has for Thaila is so freaking adorable! I could just write a review all on Theo, yes, I love him that much lol. Anyways, lets talk about Thaila. She has grown so freaking much compared to book one, and I love it! Thaila is an amazing character and I am so glad she stood her ground in Unconditional.

Now, the plot of this book? AMAZING. Did it break my heart? Why yes, it did. Did I want to smack Melody? Heck yeah! But, for real though Kelly has written such a beautiful series, and I am so sad that Thaila and Theo's story is over. I will miss them, but I am so glad they got the ending they deserve. I am really looking forward to reading Aria's story, I am so curious to learn more about her!

This series is filled with drama, romance, action, and plenty of steam. It is not always an easy read because it will piss you off that is for sure. But trust me when I say it's so worth reading! I could go on and on about this one, but I won't. Just go and read this series. NOW!

5 Stars!!!

This was a great ending to the series! I’d say of the three, Unconditional was my favorite. The steamy parts are super steamy, the love between the characters is palpable, and everything was wrapped up nicely. I wasn’t left wishing something had been answered, but I still wanted more from these characters. Best of all, Mel was barely in this one 😂 if you haven’t started this series, give it a try!

I really enjoyed this book. This is THALIA’s and Theo’s last book. I enjoyed this series very much. THALIA and Theo thought they had won against Mel. Boy were they wrong. Mel drops a big bomb on them. Theo and THALIA relationship is tested yet again. Will they pull through and get their happily ever after? Read the book to find out. There is lots of drama and things you don’t see coming in this book.

The ending to Thalia and Theo's journey is beautiful and breathtaking. The truth comes out and redemption is key.

I absolutely devoured there journey and their love is mesmerising, raw, real & passionate. It will leave you in swoonworthy terroritory and drooling for your own Theo.

Theo Rhodes loves fiercely and deeply and that is showcased through each and every book. The twists and turns are brutal and will break your heart in this series but there is a happily ever after at the end of this book and i am all friggin for it.

My heart is fully complete for these two and their love journey.

@authorkellykelsey finished this trilogy out and it ended finally in a HEA.

I have to admit I wanted to throttle Theo most of the time. The shit he still puts Thalia through drives me insane. Like I get it you wanna be there for you baby...but to let her move in with you???? No dick just no she can live down the street and be just fine and you can still be there for your kid.

Thats just how good the author wrote the character though that I had such strong feelings on him..

Bishop?? Im devastated and curious I cannot wait to see what his books with Aria brings. I swear if they don't get their HEA I will fucking riot.

Theo and Thalia keep having one pitfall after another. With Theo’s ex Mel’s schemes, she blasts back into their lives dropping yet another bombshell destroying them and their happiness.

Theo and Thalia will reach their HEA but will go through hell to get to it.

This story was about finding your soulmate and holding on tight through all of life’s storms.

Addictive, unputdownable, perfection!

Elimination got me hooked/obsessed with Thalia and Theo! And this book did not disappoint with the drama, love, family support this series has provided throughout.

Once again I became hooked from page 1 and devoured as fast as possible. It’s one of those books where you need to keep reading but want to slow down as you know it’s the last in the their story and you don’t want it to end..

Just when you think Theo and Thalia can finally be public with their love - bam something else comes along to devastate them. Oh the pain and heartbreak you feel with them… but their unconditional love is so special and strong that they find their way back to each other - with more battles to face.

I devoured this in one sitting and can highly recommend!

This is an awesome read that you will not be able to put down once you start. It moves along at a great pace, which makes for an easy read. It has interesting and unique characters that you want to know more about and you cannot help but love them no matter what happens. This book needs to be on your TBR list, you will not be sorry that you did.

ARC Review
This was my second book by this author and I plan to read more of them. I do suggest you read her trigger warnings. If you do not like cheating of any form in a book then this series is not for you.

In saying that cheating for me is sometimes a no go but for this series, I made an exception. Please know each book ends with a cliffhanger and is full of drama until the very end of the series.

Thalia and Theo had a connection that people can only dream of. This book broke me with their struggles together and apart but in end, the final book put me back together. One thing that was obvious in this series was the bond Thalias family all had and how they all came together in good times and bad. Hopefully, both siblings get books. Fyi Theo does grovel.

I have loved this series and Unconditional did not disappoint! Thalia and Theo have a chaotic love story torn apart by their circumstances and other people these two haven't had had an easy road to each other. Unconditional is no different and continues this theme of star crossed lovers with so many obstacles to overcome. Theo can be frustrating and make some really bad decisions but his love for Thalia still rules his world. Both characters show growth throughout the series and it was so good to see them come full circle. I loved the surprises the plot took in this book and was just as engrossed as with the other books. The steam was present and on point but you still felt the emotional pull of these characters as well. I loved it!

ARC review

Thalia and Theo's love is so strong. No matter what hardship they encounter on their path, their love remains. The growth Thalia makes in this book is big and important. Theo also takes the time to become a better man not only for himself but for Thalia as well. It makes everything they go through worth it.

Pacing of the book is just right. There is a big time jump but this is needed for character growth and only adds to the story. The spice is great as well.
The side characters are so interesting as well. The interactions with them are great to read about. Also the protective bodyguard Greg is never too far behind Thalia.

The author really keeps you on your toes with this series, you never know what might happen next. And also YES to a book with Atia. I am so here for Thalia's strong willed older sister's story.

"Piccola. I love you more than anything in the whole universe. I know our story hasn't been easy, but I would do it over and over again if it means having you. You are the other half of me. My soulmate. My heart."
This is my honest opinion.

“𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒎𝒚 𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒈𝒂𝒎𝒆. 𝑰 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒉𝒐𝒑𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔.”

Unconditional is the third and final book in the Jump series, the picks up right after the devastating ending of book two. Thalia lost so much and is on the verge to losing everything she’s worked so hard for, thankfully she has Theo to keep her stable or does she?

No matter what life threw at them Thalia and Theo’s loves stayed stronger than ever. Their journey to their happy ending was not a easy one, between people trying to rip them apart, lies, and betrayals they had to prove their love for one another time and time again.

“𝑰𝒕’𝒔 𝒐𝒌𝒂𝒚, 𝒑𝒊𝒄𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒂. 𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒃𝒆 𝒐𝒌𝒂𝒚. 𝑾𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒃𝒆 𝒕𝒐𝒈𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓. 𝑰 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒆. 𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒚𝒐𝒖. 𝑵𝒐 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒆𝒍𝒔𝒆. 𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒎𝒚 𝒘𝒂𝒚 𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒕𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖,”

Thalia’s character development is amazing throughout the series and I loved seeing her become the woman she was born to be. Her love for her family, friends and horses was so uplifting to read throughout all the heartbreaks.

And Theo, during those heartbreaking ten months he not only became the man that Thalia needed but also who he needed to be. He learned to believe in himself and was able to remove himself from certain agreements that overall made him happy in the end! His never burning love for Thalia kept him from drowning.

The plot throughout the series was amazing, I never knew what was going to be thrown my way next! The smutt hot!!! The drama was insane! I’m so thankfully I was able to be apart of Thalia’s and Theo’s story!

WELL, I enjoyed the series pretty much. Good stories, read them in one day! The author obviously has ridden jumping courses! If I were to be nitpicking, there were a few things that bugged me though...smallish thing, but the books would have been improved, in my opinion, with these few things:
1. I know the author lives in England, so the use of the word WHILST is understood, and if Melody had used it, it would have made sense. It does not seem like the best word for Theo and Thalia. to be using in dialog as it is not how someone from the US would speak.
2. The sex scenes: Did they all have to be EXACTLY THE SAME?? I mean, it was as if you had left a blank space in your manuscript and said INSERT THE SEX SCENE HERE, and it was copied and pasted. Every time. BORING.
3. But this is the one tiny thing that really struck the wrong note, maybe not so tiny: When you are talking about placings and ribbons at a show in the US, especially at WEF which is one of our top winter circuits, please please be aware that here in the states, BLUE is our first place, not RED. So much of the jumping details are so realistic, and then to be ruined by the wrong ribbon being first? Editor error of great proportions.

So much unnecessary drama. Some of the characters act like it’s 1750 and modern parenting isn’t a thing. Like on what planet would a person let someone like Mel to LIVE with them after her behaviors. She legit killed an animal and threatened both main characters. Like bro… have her live up the street. I couldn’t get passed that. Oh and when they reunite, why don’t they both blurt out their truths??? Like clearly he’s not a dad and she’s not with the other guy. Wtf.

Amazing finale

Absolutely loved this finale to The Jump series.

I loved Thalia and Theo’s story and the hurdles they have had to cross.

This last book was no exception - it was definitely full of surprises and plenty of twists and turns.

I cannot wait for Aria’s story next and what may or may not happen with Bishop.

Would absolutely recommend this series. Loved it!
