I do think I actually liked this one more on a re read. The first time I have re read it, and cannot say that I would re read it again as I in general prefer my H/h older, but I liked it more than I seem to remember having done so the first time.

UPDATE 4/7/17 - ok yeah, I re read it again! Upgraded to 4 stars

**Re-Read**

I can't ever seem to start a KA book and then actually put it down. Just can't.

This one swept me right in like it was brand new and kept my attention and would not let go.

I am not a fan of Motorcycle Clubs but I loved this one, again, anyway.

My only issue is that I now need to read the next one, haha!

Kristen Ashley. Kristen Ashley. KRISTEN ASHLEY!! You have written another absolutely amazing, beautiful book that will instantly be added to my favorite pile. You are so freaking gifted and I feel nothing but pure joy being able to get just a taste of your gift. If you write it, I will read it, no question. You want to start writing how to build a birdhouse manuals, I will read them too. There is nothing you could write that would not be fucking fantastic!

What a story. I remember Tab from Motorcycle Man, I remember her watching Shy. Oh, how perfectly that moment translated in to this story of two broken people finding PURE HAPPINESS with each other. I loved so much how this story formed for us. I loved watching the effect these two people had on each other even when they weren't a part of each other’s lives. I loved watching the friendship, the trust, the growth and then the absolute EXPLOSION of love. Finding the person you can be 100% yourself with is the most beautiful thing to behold. That is what they found with each other. They needed to be who they were and they needed the other to be accepting. Nothing else would work for these two. Now…let’s talk guest appearances! Holy Moly! We got Fortnum’s and a great coffee from Tex, we got Elvira with a friend no less and of course, we all knew we would get Tack, he is Tab’s Dad after all but we didn't just get Tack, we got all the Dream Men in this one! Add to that a special guest appearance from none other than Lee Nightingale and well, you get me.

I loved this book, I loved the story from the first page to the last page. Now I will go and watch the days pass until I get my next fix. Rock on! ...more

I had really high hopes for KA's latest release with the start of the Chaos Series. However, I'm not feelin' it overall -- it just fell flat and bland. I feel like the scenes are replays over and over again. Even though the heat in Ashley's books is and has always been super-sonic, it once again still comes across as same old-same old.

I liked both Shy and Tab. They had good chemistry and a fun-to-read romance. It was a welcome treat to revisit a few old characters -- especially just a tiny snea ...more

I wish it had been longer! I missed that most but it's still full of the Author's usual awesome story-telling talent. So so good. ...more

4 1/2 Stars!

'I dreamed a dream'. 'Paradise'. This book was very sweet. It kept me reading -didn't want to put it down- even without a big 'ol action- bad-guy in the mix. I actually liked how they took their time getting together, and how that all came about. I got a bit teary a couple of times! Then when they got together, they knew it was right. My favorite book from KA is Motorcycle Man... and this one is right up there with that book. I love reading about the Chaos world... the Alpha guys... ...more

No reader can go wrong by reading a Kristen Ashley novel. This book is no exception.

I loved this book, I basically love most of her books. It mainly the hot men, fiesty and/or kickass, funny woman, and the way she tells the story is both an escape for me and the story is believable. So it both takes me away, but is true to life at the same time. This book is no exception.

It isn't the average romance with instanta love that takes place in a matter or days or a week. This is a life story.
