Pearl Robinson's life was teetering on the edge of perfection. Everything was about to blossom, not least a marriage made in heaven with her fiancé, Alexandre Chevalier—the kindest, sexiest, most handsome man she could ever have wished for. But her own insecurities, fears, and murky shadows from her past led her to make certain choices that could change the course of her fate altogether. Pearl now finds herself alone and bereft, a victim of unexpected deceit. She has been lied to… tricked. But by whom? The decision is hers. Should she trust the man she loves? Can she accept his past, which threatens their future? And will the dark secrets he finally reveals meld them together as one or split them apart once and for all?… (mehr)

This is the last in the trilogy and I was lucky enough to jump right into this one after finishing up the second book. I couldnt get started on it fast enough! I needed to know what the hell happens. I mean after that cliffhanger how could I wait to read!? lol

Okay so in this one we learn a lot of info. Things that make you go..."OHHHH okay now that makes sense!" for example she explains the reason for the names of the "cookie" and why she used them. Then there are moments that I was so sure things were going to go a complete different direction because at this point I trusted NO ONE! haha I was even talking to my iPad as I read. Telling Pearl "Don't do it" or "Don't say it". You would think that I was insane walking around with my iPad talking to myself.

There are things that just make you want to hate Alexandre, but it is just so difficult to stay upset with him. You just want to take him out of the book and marry him yourself. (could you imagine, I would have a house full of men if that were possible).

I do absolutely LOVE the fact that we get a few parts in this one from his point of view. Because I was wondering what was going through his head a lot of the time. This one was a good ending although what ended up happening I felt like it was a little abrupt and I don't know...just kind of felt like it could have taken a different direction then the one that it took. BUT it got the job done I guess.

If I had to try and explain any negativity with in the book the only thing I can think of is that in this one it would that it felt as if it were a bit rushed towards the ending. I did like it and there was hotness for sure. So over all...it was a good trilogy, with the second book being my absolute favorite! I usually never am in total love with the last book in a trilogy but maybe that is in part because that means that it is done. :(

there are two books that are written in His point of view but I think I loved this so much that I don't want to ruin it . ( )

I am not going to go into detail over the premise of these books, nor am I going to go into detail over the plot. You will have to read these books on your own to get the big picture. Now this trilogy is similar to Fifty Shades in many ways and in many ways it stands out on its own. Like Fifty Shades, you have to read all three books to truly enjoy the story. The plot is similar and dissimilar. Rich guy meets girl who intrigues him.... Well that's where the difference begins. First off, Pearl is 40. By definition, she is a cougar. A cougar that falls for the ever-so-rich Alexandre. If you are looking for steamy sex, it's right here. If you are looking for shock and awe, it is right here. If you are looking for drama and deep seeded pasts, again right here. You are probably wondering why I gave this trilogy an overall 3.75. Well, honestly, I wasn't enthralled. I had to come back to these books a few times. They didn't keep me on the edge of my seat. The story, overall, is very good. I just wasn't hooked with this trilogy. Others may feel differently than I do. This story didn't quite do it for me. I can respect the talent and imagination it takes to make the story and the back story to unfold, therefore, I had to rate and write this review as an overall, rather than one by one. ( )

Pearl is an experience woman with secrets, Alexandre is a wealthy 25 year old who falls for this older lady hook, line and sinker! Laura gets her comeuppance and rightly so and now I quite like Sophie! You'll fall harder for Alexandre because he does love Pearl and he wants to be hers and he wants her in every way! Alexandre just gets kinder but Pearl hurts him big time and I feel he needs a hug, I'd oblige :)

This is the final book in the trilogy according to Pearl, I'm looking forward to reading the world according to Alexandre, I hope we find out more about his sister and Elodie.

If you liked 50 Shades then in all honesty don't expect to find Pearl tied and spanked, Alexandre isn't that type of character, but they are both strong characters and even thought there isn't totally in the 50 shades et al genre its definitely a hot read!

I never really liked Pearl. For a forty year old woman, she seemed so damn immature. Some of the decisions she made just baffled my mind. She seemed like a high schooler with her insecurity. I could never really understand what Alexandre saw in her other than really good sex...and a lot of it. And someone that didn't mind him using really stupid terms for her vajay-jay. That drove me bananas.
I liked the first book, much more than the second two. It all just got to be too much. Way too much. ( )
