Petition for Reorganization of Series Listing

I really do love this series and loved this sequel. I work for a criminal defense attorney so this book series is my bread and butter. Most law offices aren't nearly this exciting.
This being said, I totally regret reading this book thinking I was reading in chronological order. If I had realized earlier I would've read this later. However, I think it had more to do with reading the way audible presents the books. It doesn't give away anything huge but it totally felt like I ruined some of the anticipation for the others. It also felt like I was missing out on parts of the storyline. Maybe it doesn't make much of a difference but it definitely overshadowed my experience. I hate complaining but I figured it wouldn't hurt to say something.

I would like all my time back

I want all my 6hrs and change of my life back after listening to this book. The story was just awful; I mean the back and forth about “Do I tell him about the baby do I not tell him”, and the “Do we pay her to just go away”, and then in the next breathe “We will not pay her to go away”...UGH...it was just unnecessary. Several times I just wanted to scream and throw my phone across the room (if it had been a book and not and audible listen, I would have). This is the last book from this author that I will be listening to.

Some 'Why would they consider that' moments!

Overall opinion: 3.5

The first story was much better and gave me a better impression of the h. 80% of the story is about keeping a secret that should never be considered when in a strong relationship. The h gave her reasons and journals it for the H but that kind of secret should never be withheld. The H proved time after time that he can withstand anything. The other part of the story that drove me insane is that the MCs thought about paying a person off to keep silent about an obvious lie. As good as an attorney as both MCs are, it would never be a consideration as the lie can easily be disproven.

Excellent book

I really enjoyed listening to this book and didn’t put it down from start to finish.
Five well deserved stars!

Reece and Cat followup that should be read in order- not a stand-alone

I read directly after Dirty Rich one Night Stand but there is at least one story in between - that of Cole and Lori.
This is a good story with perhaps a bit too much pregnancy hormone indeed emotion from Cat. The plot centers both around a murder trial of Reece’s and a blackmail attempt but there is plenty of Cat and Reece as a couple, of Cat’s plans to tell Reece about the baby, about Cat’s relationships with her brothers, about Reece’s concerns for Cat” Very sweet and sexy between the bouts of morning sickness- apparently no exhaustion. Not a lot of humor though and that is a lost opportunity. Maybe in a future book. Should love a retro look that includes the new family plus a retro look at Lauren and Royce and their child.

A story I couldn’t wait to listen to when igot in the car

I listened to a lot of stories while driving. A lot! And most, I skip some here and there. Most have boring moments. Most have slow parts. But not this story. I couldn’t wait to get into my car so I could keep listening. And I hate driving.

I had to skip to the end

I could not enjoy this book from all the lies. Ruined the whole book for me.

great book

I really enjoyed this author. And I can't wait to read the rest of her book.

Great story

Reese is one amazing man. Cat is one romantic loyal woman. Love the chemistry and connection they have with each other.

Cat and Reece

An exciting and thrilling second story for Reece and Cat. There were twist, turns, and loads of steam. Although there were times I felt Cat should just tell Reece her secret because throughout the book they both said they had no secrets and trusted each other without question. That being said, it didn’t take away from the sweetness, and excitement of this story.
Joe Arden and Erin Mallon are simply perfect. I loved listening to them.

Excellent

Loved the conclusion to this pair Reece 👌
Thanks for great narration also no hesitation in awarding 5 stars
