In this story we get Posey whose life isn’t all sunshine and rainbows, yet she is determined to make something of herself and get out. She has always been attracted to Hudson, her older brother’s best friend who lived across the street. Hudson was always nice to her, but it seemed as they all grew up he grew away from them and paid her no attention. When they are brought back into each other’s lives Hudson knows there is no way he can fight this attraction he has carried for a while now, but he has secrets the kind that can end things before they even begin so how will this work? Posey and Hudson’s story was a good one where he is very protective over her, wants the best for her, and Posey wants to live a happier life than she has known. This was an interesting story, with some stalkerish behavior, definite alpha male, and a strong heroine. I loved when Posey and her friend would put Hudson in his place if the roles were reversed in one instance and refused to back down.… (lisätietoja)

I very much enjoyed the first quarter of the book.
While a lot of common tropes are present the MC was refreshingly uncomplicated and honest.

But as soon as the actual RH members are introduced it devolved into full-fledged porn.
There is some kind of flimsy plot and stuff but the only thing that gets any page time is smut.
And when I say porn, I mean porn. It reads exactly like professionally shot porn with professional porn stars including the absurd moaning and cringe-inducing lines. This doesn't read like hot book smut.

I am pretty disappointed by this turn of events. While I wasn't under any illusions of how this mfmm setup would turn out, I hoped there would be something more than this token effort in terms of plot and romance.
I actually liked the MC for once.
There was a bit of the "forgiving too fast" trope which is sadly common but nothing too bad.

I was intrigued by the mansion full of creepy monsters and her living among them and ruling the roost.
I would've loved to read an entire book like that.
But it wasn't to be.… (lisätietoja)

3 stars, full Review on my blog!

This CANT BE THE CONCLUSION? WHAT?! SOOO many things left unanswered. I genuinely enjoyed this story, but is that it? After all the buildup, we get a sudden happily ever after for everyone? While I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in this series, I must confess that I felt let down by this one.

Let me begin by saying that this reverse harem trilogy was decent, captivating, easy to read, and thoroughly enjoyable and it held my attention to the point where I couldn't put it down but I couldn't help but feel that the ending left something to be desired.

Feeling Forever should have been an exhilarating read, considering the presence of these attractive men surrounding Waylynn. Unfortunately, she seemed to fade into the background while Memphis, Oz, and Bates took the spotlight. Like many trilogies, this one suffered from unnecessary filler content, including family and groupie drama, along with repetitive scenes told from different perspectives.

It was disappointing to see Bates feel like a third wheel in the relationship, almost like a creeper just observing from the sidelines. As I said in my review for book 2, Bates just feels out of place in the harem, like he doesn't even belong since he was introduced as a "love interest" so late in the trilogy. The majority of the book focused on developing the relationship between Memphis and Oz, while Bates seemed to be left behind. It leaves the impression that Memphis is the primary boyfriend, Oz provides comedic relief, and Bates is merely there to balance out Memphis' dominant and problematic behavior. But I mean I'm not really complaining, I do enjoy Memphis' character out of all of them.

One of the main aspects that remained unexplained was the reason behind the main character's ability to hear voices following her car accident in her youth. It is barely addressed at all and Bates concludes that she must be psychic, and that's the end of it. It's brushed aside without further exploration. Instead, a significant portion of the story is dedicated to Alexis' drama, which mysteriously disappears without a trace. Why does KJ harbor so much animosity toward Oz? Why did Waylynn's mom bring Easton? What was his intention or plan if Bates hadn't intervened? The conflicts in those books never felt out of nowhere; there was always sufficient foreshadowing to justify the events and there was so much potential in these storylines, but they were hastily skimmed over, and the story concluded with a lackluster smut chapter.

I don't know, the whole psychic ability thing was cool, I just wished I was explained. The mention of her brother's death in the accident seemed significant, but we never received a clear explanation or connection to it. We are left to assume that the accident triggered her 'ability', but the reasoning behind it remains unclear. And the fourth voice she heard? The 'mean voice', was never adequately explained either. Perhaps I missed something along the way, but it left me wanting more clarification.

Overall, a disappointing end to this trilogy. I found myself incredibly unsatisfied with the ending of the trilogy. In fact, I genuinely assumed that it was a cliffhanger and that there would be an afterward announcing the release date of the fourth book. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case. When I realized that "THE END" was the intended conclusion, I audibly exclaimed, "WTF."

The initial plot held a sense of mystery and intrigue but there are numerous unresolved plotlines, including three foreshadowed moments from the first two books that are finally brought up in this installment; these crucial explanations were glossed over. The conclusion of this series remains uncertain, and I hold onto the hope that it isn't truly over. And I strongly believe that if there were a fourth book, there would be ample room to delve into the story, tie up loose ends, and provide a satisfying conclusion.

While the romance does develop throughout the finale, it also feels...unfinished.

That's precisely where I'm left with this series—it feels unfinished. To say I'm unsatisfied would be an understatement; it goes beyond that. Usually, the end of a series can feel unsatisfactory if the happily-ever-after arrives sooner than expected or doesn't unfold in the desired manner. But I don't even want to call this ending a happily ever after.
