His Ever After took me a bit by surprise. There were some things I was expecting, but there was a whole new element to Jacobs story that I enjoyed. Then there was the heat. Oh boy, was there heat!I'll admit that I wasn't a huge Jacob fan in the first book. However, I was open to the possibility that he may redeem himself. And in His Ever After, he did. I enjoyed getting to know him a bit better. It helped me understand why he made the decisions he had in the past, but we also see a whole new side to his character, that I really liked. I will say that I was ready to see him close the chapter on his obsession with Samantha. She was happy in her marriage and he needed to let her go.His relationship with Brooke was way complicated. I was surprised by how that part of the story played out. I wasn't expecting it. And in some ways, feel like it come on abruptly. But, it also gave a broader opening to put Jacob with the person he was really supposed to be with.Kara and Jacob have known each other for a while, because Kara was friends with Brooke. The "situation" with Brooke, brings Kara and Jacob closer together. I really liked Kara, which kind of surprised me, because I don't usually care for timid characters. But, I loved the way she was able to draw Jacob out of his gloom and make him really see that he was capable of loving and be in a healthy relationship. They both helped each other heal too. I also loved that Kara became close to Jacob's sister and her kids. It was so sweet. I was really happy with Kara and Jacob being together.The heat level was hot, but in a different way than the first book. The first book was crazy HOT! And it was also forbidden sex. In this book, Jacob and Kara had hope for a future together. Even if it didn't start out that way, that's how it was. There was chemistry and a deeper connection between them. It was pretty great!Overall, I enjoyed His Ever After. I was glad to see Jacob move on and find happiness. It was great to see Samantha and Aiden again too. I was glad to see them happy. If you're in the mood for an intense and sexy read, check this one out!
