He has a drinking problem. She's a sex addict, and keeping clean is only half the struggle. No. More. Sex. Lily Calloway is terrified of those three words. Loren Hale, on the other hand, is determined to remain with Lily while avoiding aiding her deadly compulsions. Lily faces new challenges as a result of their new living situation—sleeping in the same bed, for real, together. Not jumping on Lo's bones every night, for example. Being unaffected by sex and his physique. Loren intends to stay sober in order to make amends for his mistakes. 

When someone threatens to reveal Lily's secret to her family and the public, he vows to protect her at all costs. But when old foes resurface, Lo's sobriety is jeopardized. They'll torture Lily until she snaps. And relapsing isn't his worst fear. He hears the conclusion. He notices it. The one item that has the potential to change everything. Three simple words. No. More. Them.

So far, this is my favorite in the series, and I'm delighted I'm finally understanding the buzz. The last several chapters were far too personal. I enjoyed seeing Ryke and Lo's brotherhood and how they dealt with their family issues. I'm finally warming up to Lily. In previous books, I didn't care for her, but now I do. I can tell she's making an effort. I adore all of the characters in this series, and I'm afraid I've managed to grow too connected to them. Anyway, I'm ecstatic to get started on Rose and Connor's story so soon! I already adore them.
