These smoking hot MC guys finding love is the perfect steamy romances. I love the sense of brotherhood between the men in the club. Watching these strong, tatted men get their legs kicked out from under them by a woman is great. I loved how Bella provided a soothing presence for Logan and he for her. They complimented each other well.

Awww I adored this one. To muddle through grief by connecting with the ones closest to the loss. Patrick was essential to Maisie and Grant in their adjustment to life without their mom. Maisie and Grant were pivotal in Patrick finding purpose.

I was blown away by Nora and her intense determination to help those in need medically. Though she couldn't help being born in a time that didn't allow woman to practice medicine, she found a way to learn and be useful. Nora's appetite for medical knowledge was unparalleled compare to any other character. She was fearless in her pursuit to aid others.

I adore the world Arden has built that the bundle of characters like Adele, Nicco, Isaac, Desiree. I have watched them go and find their path through this fourth book was wonderful. I can't wait to see where each will land in the end. My only hick-up is that I struggled to determine the narrator of each chapter since it has multiple POV.

As a gal who grew up watching those midday soap opera's like the Young and the Restless, this one hit the spot. Jasmine kind of grated me at times but her and Ashton's connection was electric.

Mary Jane was annoyingly naive but her discovery of the eye-opening world outside of her shelter life/house was enjoyable.

This whole series as sweep me away. Kjell and Sorcha are magnetic. Their love felt as strong as the tides constantly pulling them back to each other. I really enjoyed seeing the main characters blossom into their full potential.

Harmon's writing is exquisite.

I enjoyed this book just as much as the movie. It really highlights how important it is for NASA astronauts to be great problem solvers and critical thinkers.
