I’m glad they have their little family now. He deserves the world and I hate that he went through all that alone, but found the boys eventually. Kody’s backstory hurt my soul and I wish that had been talked about more in the other books. I missed being in their POV so much and I truly adore them - definitely some of my favorite characters this year. Meanwhile, Steeles proposal was so HIM and he planned the entire wedding in secret, I loved it 🖤. Kodiak put so much effort into his proposal and he was genuinely concerned she would say no ☹️, as if MK would ever do that. Of course, he loves the guys and he’s only willing to share with them 🫶. Arch was possessive and jealous of course, so he was so moody because he hates the idea of not being the only one married to MK. She is attempting to put herself through online business school so that one day she can run her own multibillion-dollar corporate empire. MK goes to resolve that issue and she handles it perfectly. There’s also a scene where someone broke into the original Brilliance vault, and took The Wittenberg Diamond. Of course, Archer snaps and Steph overhears the conversation which was a breaking point to her running away and getting snatched - but it worked out to get them off the task of protecting her. However, they hate that they cannot protect MK first, because she will ALWAYS be their main priority. The novella occurs during the same timeline where Archer, Steele & Kodiak are tasked to keep Steph safe as a favor to Hades. MK, Wittenberg Heir and still my favorite person. It’s cool that Kody and Steele are now “married” to MK but like… it didn’t do anything for me. I think the formulaic sex scenes were just a little… boring - I was skipping them! The plot was meh. I would count myself as one of those people, but it still fell flat for me. Was this novella necessary? No - but it was for the fans who want a bit more time with MK and the guys. This novella was fan service - which isn’t an insult! I love when authors do things for their readers (like J Bree re-writing book 2 of the Hannaford Prep series to be from the guys POV). Tate James does banter and twists really well, and her books are entertaining as hell - but… It already happened while I was reading the Hades series - I didn’t have the same “new to reverse harem” rose colored glasses on and I found it really lacking in relationship development.
I’m almost scared to re-read the Madison Kate series because the first time I read it, I loved it - I thought it was super campy and fun and just a wild, sexy ride… but I’m worried that on re-read, I’ll see the flaws.
