This is a series where it is best to read them in order starting with the preview, The Grounbreaking and I must admit I have gone back to this to find out the backstory on different characters as they come along, each book builds upon the last one growing just like a family and each and every person in the Walters family do become family to you as you read because they are so alive. This book will draw every possible emotion from you, I was laughing and crying, smiling, and then of course my heart was torn out at the cliff hanger ending.This book mainly focuses on Steve and Kelly, and they do make a wonderful couple amazing chemistry and this gets into some pretty heavy BDSM including ménage scenes.Both Steve and Kelly have been wounded time and time again but they have dealt with it differently, Kelly still has an innocence, a joy about her, seeing the good in people and wanting to help but being able to open up and let people in, whereas Steve has closed and while he has friends he has never let anyone in and hates that anyone might see the softer side of him.They go into a D/s relationship and it's fascinating to see the trust that is needed, and once that trust is lost can it be returned, I can see how this would vary from couple to couple just as every relationship varies.One thing I absolutely love about this series is that all the main characters are older and the stories focus on them, the younger generation are there but as secondary characters all in settled relationships I think it's wonderful and explores a reality that is present in today's world but often forgotten in fiction especially romance that just because you are older doesn't mean that you don't have wants and desires and that it's sad but true that there a many single middle aged people out there so it's exciting to see thm portrayed so realistically. I cannot wait until what I believe to be the final instalment arrives to find out what transpires and what the Walters clan will get up to next.I received a free copy for an honest review.
