...which was disappointing because Donovan was one of my favorite of the Kelly brothers. In this book, he’s comes off a little creepy, and there were no moments of levity that some of the other books had. I missed Donovan’s irreverence. Anyway, I ended up just skimming the last couple of chapters. I hope Swanny gets a better treatment in the next installment of the series.

It’s time for a boring Kelly wife. This was neck break speed love and it was too much too fast. The poor Kelly’s need a freaking break.

I have been totally absorbed in this series. The plots are well thought out, the characters endearing. This one was off the mark. Van came across as totally skeevy coming onto Eve so strongly. I’m an abuse survivor and that may truly color my take on this but it disturbed me enough to provide feedback to the author. Eve was too traumatized to take on an alpha male so quickly to have any of the rest ring true.

Seriously. Every book is so darn good. Can’t put them down. Do yourself a favor and READ them!

Why are they a happy family after 3 days of knowing one another? Cringe. He cannot expect Eve to simply go along with Donavan's presumptuous intentions. The entire time I thought how unrealistic it all was. So, she's going to just let a man tell her siblings they're a family now without even discussing it with her first? & then her 15 year old brother offers alone time for them to have sex? Girl, please. I was so disappointed. Couldn't read past that scene. I was already pushing myself to that point.

Good but not as good as the ones preceding it. 4 stars!

Such a beautiful love story; I couldn't put this book down. Donovan, Eve, Travis and Cammie one big family coming together thru tragedy to become one absolutely beautiful

There is no way the character Donovan in all the other books should have crowded the heroine as portrayed in this book. This woman has possible sexual, emotional, and mental a use & he is like a bull in a china shop with his aggression. I can not believe the same person crafted the previous material and loses the continuity of her hero.

I started the kgi series in feb and just finished with Donovan's story. I couldn't believe it was the same author. This definitely felt rushed and I cringed every time Donovan referred to the kids as his. All of the other kgi stories were amazinggggg. This was by far the weakest and not very good at all. I skimmed through most of the dialogue because I just couldn't bear. C'mon maya, take more time and deliver us the great kgi series stories we have come to love!

I have just about all of Maya Banks books. She is an incredible writer. She is very talented. I've never given her less than 4 stars. I'm disappointed and bewildered about this one. I didn't make it through the second chapter of this book without stopping and questioning what happened to Maya on this one. This is not Maya Banks. Here her groove is gone. I stopped and spent some time wondering. Is Maya tired of writing about KGI? Is she helping an inspired author begin by letting someone else write this one while she checks on it ever so often with little to no care? Was she pushed by the publisher to produce something too soon? Is she taking medication and lost her desire to write? This is not just writer's block. This is just a meaningless run on of words that form sentences that become paragraphs to just get the book finished. Get it done. Turn in your work. Regurgitation. Redundancy of thought. None of Maya's twists and turns and suspense. Just on and on and on about the same thing over and over. A wailing that begins early about the same thing over and over. And it never stops. UNCLE!! Oh and the sensual sexy piece that's always so hot, emotional, passionate, intense and exciting? A terrible attempt. Forget it here. It's not here. This is not Maya. I'll never believe she wrote this. Buy the book if you want to just keep up with the Kelly family so that you'll know Donovan's story. It's boring and pathetic. Written for a reader with very low expectations.
