**ARC provided in exchange for an honest review**


Hayes story was one of my most anticipated ones the moment I met him Wild North. He is such an arrogant and horrible person in the previous books. So I couldn't wait to learn more about him and see him fall in love. I wanted to know more about his background and find out why he hates the world. The story starts off where it left off in the previous book with Haven, a teenage girl, claiming to be the daughter of Hayes. I couldn't wait to see how Hayes would handle this and I wanted to know what type of relationship he had with Haven's mother. Haven really was the perfect combination of Hayes and Vanessa. She is pretty sassy and speaks her mind.

"You've always been my ideal."

Hayes is like a fish out of water and I loved seeing a different side to his very confident and mean side. However, he never got over his first love Vanessa and seeing her again and finding out they share a daughter brings back all kinds of feelings. I loved seeing a softer side to Hayes and it was obvious he would do anything for his family. Vanessa made me mad a couple of times but I could understand her hesitation and be afraid of getting hurt. In most romance novels the heroine makes sacrifices but I was happy that Hayes made them as well. I really enjoyed this steamy second-chance contemporary romance. I am sad this is the last book in the series. I really hope Jamie will write a novella updating us on what all the North brothers and their partners are doing in the future.
