About this audiobook
Beautiful Harper gave Sean those eyes . . . those eyes that meant, yes, take me. But Harper didn't know Sean's secret . . . She didn't know that he liked it rough. More than rough.
He liked to dominate. To punish. To degrade. It was the only way that the black hole in his soul wouldn't swallow him up.
He would push her a little too far, and she would run. They all ran, eventually.
But that's not what happened . . . when he put his hands around her throat and squeezed, Harper moaned. When he told her to stay away, she didn't listen, misbehaving until she got spanked. When he took out the handcuffs, there was excitement in her eyes, mixed with a little fear.
The doe-eyed redhead liked it. More than that, she wanted it. She said so, time and again.
That's the thing about sexy strangers, though . . . you never know what they're hiding. And Harper is carrying a burden so heavy that even Sean's secrets pale in comparison.
Contains mature themes.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Amazing I loved and every single second of this story definitely recommend it
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5When I got this book Ms. Banks informed me she had to do the ending the way she did and changed it from it's original ending, in short...I was worried. After having read the book, just like she said, he couldn't have ended any other way.
I love the characters in this book, I know everyone was waiting for Cole's book for so long that is hardly seemed real that it was time to read it. Lucas definitely grew on me as the story progressed. This is probably the sexiest book yet in this series, in my opinion. I loved the varied scenes with two or even three people interacting with Ren, it was sexy and very well done.
The only problem I had with this book is the "misunderstanding" sub-plot. Ren automatically assuming things, the guys not telling her the full story, and then everyone gets worked up. I didn't find that part believable, I am a firm believer in everything can easily be cleared up, there is no need to mope around. I get it, it's fiction, just didn't like that part.
Overall, a beautifully written and sexy conclusion to the Sweet Series. - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I liked the idea much more than the execution. Ren was Cole's first love, and he left her for what I thought was a really immature reason. He never got over her. Ren, while never forgetting him, was able to move and have several successful D/s relationships. She's currently in a fufulling relationship with Lucas, and, wow. Let me just say that the whole 24/7 D/s thing makes no sense to me whatsoever, but Maya Banks did such a great job with Ren and Lucas's characterizations, especially Ren's, that I had no trouble getting into it.
And then Cole happened. I just did not care about him or Ren's feelings for him. To be fair, I'm not a fan of the whole reunited first loves trope, so that right there was a hill that not many authors can get me to climb. But the reason for him leaving her was just so petty, and while I could believe that both he and Ren would feel some bittersweet nostalgia for that time in their lives, I could not accept that their feelings for each other would still be so strong. For that reason, the ending just didn't work for me (though there are plenty of stories out there where I would have loved such an ending).
