Dominic is used to attention, and when he and his brothers move to Dublin, Ireland for family business, he gets nothing but attention. Attention from everyone except the beautiful brunette with a sharp tongue.

Keela Daley is the black sheep of her family. She has always come second to her younger cousin Micah. Even in the eyes of her mother, Micah shone bright, and Keela faded to black. Now, in adulthood, Micah is a bride-to-be and the spotlight is solely on her. Keela is a low priority…or so she thinks. Alec Slater is a bachelor, never one to bed the same woman, or man, twice. He is a free agent who does what he pleases and answers to no one; that is until a fiery Irish redhead with a temper to match her hair colour knocks him on his arse. Literally. She hates to admit it, but Keela needs a favour from the cocky Slater brother, a huge favour. She needs him to not only escort her to Micah’s wedding, but to also pose as her boyfriend. Alec agrees to help Keela, but has certain conditions for her to abide by. He wants her body and plans to have it before anyone can say I do. What he doesn’t plan on is losing his heart as well as the possibility of losing his family when someone from his past threatens his future. Alec owns Keela, and what Alec owns, Alec keeps.

—–> REVIEW OF THE SERIES <—–
We first meet Dominic and Bronagh when they are still in high school. It was hate at first sight with a healthy dose of lust thrown into the mix. These two bicker, name call, and basically give each other hell. It’s basically watching an the Jerry Springer show but with way, way hotter people. (No offense to whomever has been on the show.)
Anyways, you might think at eighteen, two people can’t realize they met “the one”. However for those two, that is exactly what’s happened. In a short span of time, they’ve dealt with mundane high school drama and the mob. And that was only in book one.
In book 1.5, we fast forward three years. Nothing against teeny bopper books but I was relieved to have them aged. I say aged because they didn’t really mature much at all.
They still bicker which is just how they roll. You can tell they don’t mean it because their mouths and other body parts tend to be fused together after a “name” is dropped.
An example of the love between these two: One of Dominic’s birthday presents to Bee “100 Reasons Why I love You”. Dominic, or should I say L.A., was extremely creative here. I laughed, rolled my eyes, and smirked several times over.
Book 2 and 2.5) Alec was very adorable. I can see why Keela likes him/falls for him. However, when they first shagged I kept thinking how many holes that man filled while being an escort. Yes, he admitted to sexing many, many a man and woman. Quite a few at the same time.
Alec may be sex on a stick, funny as hell, but I couldn’t find enjoyment in their love scenes because I was stuck on his number and what might be growing on his schlong, unlike Keela. I know he wore a condom with Keela but still, what holes he filled over the past decade filled my mind. No pun intended. 🙂
With that said, I thought the packing game was hilarious. Never a dull moment with these ladies and gents.
Now onto the latest tale, Kane. This story I enjoyed immensely. Kane was the sweetest, funniest, but the most damaged brother. He had physical scars with emotional scars to match. I think he hide behind his sense of humor. Good thing he had Ado, whom saw through his bullshit.
As for the overall read of this story, I laughed on many occasions. Too many to count. And I got misty eyed towards the end.
It was a brilliant read with a happy ending. *smiles*
