4,5 stars. There were parts of this book that I loved and other parts of this book that had me wishing that I read faster than my 1000 wpm (just so I get get past it. Thank goodness there were not as many as those parts as there was the parts I loved or I would have struggled to finish it Natasha drove me nuts half the time with one moment wanting Joshua at all costs and the next pushing him away. I was on a rollercoaster with her and I HATE rollercoasters. Joshua had his moments of wishy washy too but he was not as annoying. I really liked him. THe scenes at the end of the series when he thought he lost her for good. Sweet holy hell. My heart ached for him.

All in all a good series. Looking forward to finishing the rest of them. ( )

The author succeeded in pulling me totally into this series of "forbidden" love between cousins Josh & Natasha. TWO thumbs up for me. Was able to read this through amazon kindle unlimited and I was pleasantly surprised and thankful to have all 3 books in the series in one boxed set!!! I could not stop reading. ( )
