Nathan and Lila are so close to having everything they want.  For Lila, finding Nathan and feeling loved was a dream she long ago forgot.  Hope didn’t exist for her, just survival.  Day to day Lila made her way through life, but until Nathan, she had never lived.Nathan had it all once upon a time.  His wife, his child – torn from him in an act of revenge. With their death, the man that believed in happily ever after died, replaced with a broken man, a beast.  Lila sparked life into him.  He was never going to be that man again, but with Lila he was reborn. Half man-half beast and all hers.With the trial approaching, Lila’s strength is being tested.  Having to face the demons of her past doesn’t just take its toll on her, Nathan must restrain his anger for what they put her through.  But it isn’t just Lila’s past that has forced its way into their present.  With a new case building against Vincent Marconi, Nathan is faced with the harsh reality that by loving Lila, he just gave the Marconi family something they can use against him.The dreams of a future they both denied themselves for so long are finally within their reach but is it too late?When Nathan Thorne came crashing into my life I had made my way through countless heroes, but until him there was never one that had consumed me. The Breach Series was an instant favorite from page one.  K.I. Lynn gave us two broken characters with Lila & Nathan, but it wasn’t just about fixing them.  They remained broken by their past, but she paved a way for them to find something new, a peace that only came from being together.  So many give their, characters a quick fix, with a dose of love – they are suddenly healed.  Not for Nathan & Lila, they may have learned new ways to deal with their past, but they remain fractured.When I first started this series I was pulled in by the dirty talk.  There was just something in the way that KI wrote those lines, those scenes that gave Nathan’s voice a different feel.  Then the story line captured me.  There is just so much about this series that I fell in love with.  The dirty and the sweet moments both leave you panting and swooning.  And we get dual POVs!  I loved how KI used this as she wrote the story.  The fact that she allowed the moments that were the largest impacts of this story to be seen in this way, gave the story such life.  My heart was soaring then crashing down throughout this entire story.There were a few simple moments that just stuck out for me.  At a little over halfway through the story, Nathan and Lila are talking about their future and with one word from Lila a dream of Nathan’s was remembered.  I had serious goosebumps, a little scene that could have easily been forgotten within the pages of the prior books... but there was just something about this particular scene that got me.At the 75% mark there was a scene that showed just how far Nathan had grown in the last year.  In Breach, this moment was the buildup and Nathan’s inner beast had taken over.  To see the change in him to this point left me with a feeling of sheer happiness.We also got a little bit of tease which made me wonder what came first... this or that...This book was sprinkled with moments like these.  In a flash you were reminded of the turmoil of their relationship from the first book and to see them like this was just pure bliss.I even suffered from a moment of jealousy.  Reading these scenes between Lila and Nathan were so freaking hot, but at a point I felt a pang and then had to remind myself that he wasn’t real and not obtainable.  I adore Lila, but my claws were out.  Now we’ve covered the sweet, and although we love Nathan when he is all Honeybear this and Honeybear that, we love it when he’s calling for his c*ckslut just as much.There was not a single thing about this story that I did not love.  Not a moment or a word was out of place.  The journey of these two gave us one h*lluva ride and in the end, I am so glad that the book with two marred hands reaching towards each other caught my eye.Breach remains one of my favorite series and I have a feeling that it will be that place for years to come. If you have not yet met Mr. Thorne and his dirty mouth, you are missing out – this series takes the twist from the bedroom, wall, bathroom, office... antics to such a suspenseful ride.
