Review: Review for Vol 1-3
Rating: 4 out of 5

Let me preface this review by saying that I absolutely HATE the new trend of cliffhanger books. I understand that in this world of instant gratification, readers want books as fast as possible. I, however, would rather only get 1-2 books a year by my preferred authors and have them be complete stories. The only thing worse is the "serials" which you only get 1-2 chapters at a time. But, since this trend doesn't seem to be dying out anytime soon and everyone seems to be on the bandwagon, I have adjusted by just waiting until all the books in the series are released and then beginning to read them. So, over the past three days, I have read Vol 1-3. I loved portions of each book, but couldn't quite give the entire series 5 stars. Pros- I love Alex, he is so sweet and genuine. It was nice to read about a handsome, alpha billionaire that didn't sleep with every woman he has ever met. He was so patient with Jennifer as she was trying to get over her trust issues. I love the friendship between Jennifer and Lisa and that there was no jealousy of that friendship by Alex. The steamy scenes were nicely done and not crude like a lot of books are pushing toward. Cons - Jennifer was quite annoying at times. She seemed very confident most of the time, then acted so indecisive when it came to committing to Alex. A handsome, kind, sweet, billionaire is in love with you - what is there to be indecisive about?! I felt like Vol 1 and 2 were more realistic than Vol 3. (as realistic as a billionaire love story can be, haha!) I did not like the ending, it felt unfinished. But, maybe in the new series surrounding Lisa and Tank we will get more details about Jennifer and Alex. Overall, I enjoyed the books, but will probably not be in my re-read file. I would read future books by this author.
