Publisher's summary

Phoenix:

I met the love of my life when I was 17 years old. She was my best friend, my love, my soulmate. Even at such a young age, we had a solid plan for our future. I would join the Marines after graduation. We would get married after my first deployment. When my time with Marines was up, we would start a family.

But that's not what happened. I came home to find out she disappeared a few weeks after I left. Pop and Gram had everyone searching for her. Pop even hired some of the best private investigators in the business, but it was as if she vanished into thin air. I never gave up the search. I was bound and determined to find her, though I never had much to go on.

Then, one day, out of the blue, Ember walked into my clubhouse and set off a chain of events that ultimately revealed almost 40 years of secrets. With my club by my side, we began sorting through the mess left behind by one man's obsessive jealousy. After a year of combing through a maze of underground tunnels and hidden rooms and sorting through boxes and boxes of files, I finally found the name I had been searching for.

Annabelle Burnett. Hang on, doll face, I'm on my way.

Contains mature themes.

some good moments

(Phoenix & Annabelle) triggers: drugs, kidnapping, trafficking. Finally, we get the story of Ember's parents and find out what happened to her mom after she was born. After the last plot twist, we were in need of a little bit of closure with this family. Let me tell you… this one is a doozy. If you haven't read the first two books, I would suggest you read them first in order to follow along with this crazy family tree. T.B. takes us back in time to when the MC’s president, Phoenix was a teenager and the day he first meets the love of his life. Right off, you'll fall in love with these young love birds but it's not long before the author reminds you just how much life sucks. After graduation, Phoenix heads off to the Marines while Annabelle stays back going to go to community college while working. Except, her dad has other plans and she is taken to the farm (ranch) under the impression that her parents owe the owner money and they have to work it off. When Phoenix returns on leave it's to find that his love has disappeared and no one knows where or why. Present day, Phoenix and the guys have found a lead to Annabelle, do Phoenix heads out on his bike. The story starts to drag a little at this point because it's basically a road trip. I have to say that Annabelle has definitely changed and I didn't really like her much in the beginning. But she is dealing with a lot. The story does get better and of course the drama is never done when the RBMC is involved. And the MC must fight to keep history from repeating. I did enjoy the book overall.

so glad Phoenix and Annabelle got their HEA!! this was probably my favorite of the series thus farm I'm a sucker for a good back story!!

Great series!

I love this series by Teagan Brooks, and had anxiously awaited Phoenix and Annabelle's story. The story itself did not disappoint, but I found myself jumping ahead through a lot of Mia's parts. She doesn't really have many expressions in her voice, and it got to be tiring after a while. I have the books in e-format, so will probably stick with that. I actually downloaded this series because of Troy. I absolutely love his voice!! He narrates another one of my favorite series, and does an outstanding job, so thought I would give this one a try. I gave the 5 star performance for Troy's portion - Mia would get a 3 on this book.

Phoenix and Annabelle

This story had the perfect amount of suspense, action, humor, and romance. I enjoyed every moment of it. Loved how we got to see how Phoenix and Annabelle met, fell in love and what transpired from there. From the beginning Phoenix had this presence about him that was overbearing, a little gruff, but loving at the same time, and after reading his story it was made perfectly clear why he is the way he is. Looking forward to what comes next. Narration was great.

Love this series!

Each book is better then the next! Absolutely love this series. The romance and the comedy make it very hard to stop listening!

great series

great series, great characters, several surprises. Mr Duran is an incredible narrator. It got a 4 instead of 5 only because at the heart it was very sad and I don't do well with sad. Listen to romance to avoid sad.

minor spoiler... Much deserved happy ending

Spoilers....Phoenix is an awesome guy and I LOVE that he gets his family and the happy ending he deserves.

Phoenix gets his girl!

For the past 20 yrs, Phoenix has been existing. He’s never gotten over losing the love of his life, Annabelle. Then life throws him a curveball and he learns that Annabelle had given birth to twins all those years ago, while living with a madman.
