Publisher's summary

We met in a bar.

The sex was phenomenal.

Then I walked away.

That’s where our story should’ve ended.

But he found me. Now he knows my real name, my secrets, and all the details of my sordid past.

I’m out for revenge, and no one will stop me; not even the pragmatic Zane Lewis. If he thinks he can silence me with the promise of more mind-bending sex, he’s wrong.

Ivy Matthews is the most frustrating female I’ve ever known. I’ve broken terrorists faster than I can pull information from her sweet lips.

The only time she’s pliant is when she’s under me, or when my mouth is exploring her sexy curves, and then the most exquisite filthy words and breathy moans fill my ears.

If she thinks she can walk away from me, she’s wrong.

I’ve found the one - my perfect match - my equal.

Come hell or high-water, Ivy is mine.

Last book in the series

Loved the entire series. I don't have time to read a book and that is why I like the audiobooks. It is a shame that I can't get the last book in the series.

Zane...He had me at “raggedy a$$”!!

Zane has got to be one of the best characters in this series. Jason Clarke is my favorite male narrator, and he does a hell of a job. I am so sorry to say, but I am not crazy about Carly Robins and her narrative style, but I gave this book all five stars, because of the story line and Jason.

My kind of guy

I felt sorry for the heroine without feeling she was a ditz. I love the strong male character and the voices are two of my favorite which doesn’t hurt the story any. Good to show that really bad parents do exist and I like seeing bad people get what they deserve.

Love this story so much

The male vo actor is flawless. The female vo actress, while talented, just doesn’t fit a young 27 yo Ivy. She sounds like a society maven. Not a young hardworking woman. And don’t get me started on her voice for the male or even a young boy voice. So annoying. Not sure why these authors love her so much but I am getting sick of her voice. I feel like a teacher is reading to me. Not a vo actress acting out a book.

Anyhoo. The actual story is amazing and one of my favorites. Plus I could listen to Jason clarke all damn day.

Loved

Loved loved loved! I had been waiting for Zane to fall...because I knew he'd fall hard...and epically! And I was not disappointed. Ivy blew into his life and it was never the same...and boy did he meet his match in her. A great listen as the two got their HEA. Narration brings it to life that much more.

Love this story - it's superb!

Perfectly narrated by Jason Clarke and Carly Robins, Recovering Ivy is my favourite of the Red Team series and Zane and Ivy are one of my favourite couples ever! Packed with action, raw emotion and heart wrenching moments this is an incredible read and a story very close to the authors heart as revealed by her note at the begiining of the story.
Zane is as alpha as they come, an absolute controlfreak and incredibly protective of all those who both served under him and now work for him, responsiblitiy weighs heavy on him and he has no time for a relationship of any sort bar an occasional one night stand - definitely no breakfasts! He meets Ivy in a bar one night, they end up in his bed and life for Zane changes for ever.
Ivy is a survivor, she lived through a horrible childhood with her drug addict mother and although she escaped as soon as she could her mother's vicious verbal abuse is etched on her soul. On the outside Ivy is independent, sassy and feisty and has no trouble standing up to Zane much to everyone's amusment. On the inside she is heartbreakingly insecure, tortured by so many demons that leave her feeling completely worthless.
Can Zane heal Ivy's soul and crush her demons, will she let him? Can Ivy help ease Zane's pain and help him find the happiness he deserves?
An action packed story featuring all the wonderful characters from Red Team who bring their usual humour. Zane and Ivy are perfect for each other and brilliant together, I loved their interactions as well as all the heat between them.
The story is pacy, beautifully written packing an emotional punch dealing with an incredibly sad and difficult subject. I confess I really didn't want it to end and know I will be reading/ listening to this again and again. Thank you Riley Edwards for Zane and Ivy's story - it was superb!
