Redeeming Kyle? I sure will!!!


I just finished the last book in the 69 Bottles trilogy. I was on pins and needles waiting for it to come out, and I am not disappointed! In Redeeming Kyle, Addison, Talon and Kyle struggle to adjust to the changes that have occurred in their lives. Kyle has a harder time with everything, due to his past. There were times I wanted to strangle him. Being sexy only gets you so far, buddy!

I've loved the trio from the beginning. Being myself in a marriage that started out quickly, I can relate to the almost instantaneous love and passion. Sometimes, it's immediate and you know and you don't want to wait to start your life (or lives). These guys totally encapsulate that sentiment. The love between the three is almost palpable from the pages of the book. Their lives are chaotic and hectic and oftentimes unbelievable, but Addison, Talon and Kyle do a great job of staying grounded and supportive of one another. Their relationship is beautiful.....and honestly makes me want to contemplate a trio relationship. ;-)

To be honest, the last 10% or so of the book wasn't really my style. It seemed as if the writing changed a bit and became a little choppy. I do realize, though, that in order to end the series, there were a lot of loose ends that needed to be tied up. This was probably the only way to do it. It just seemed different than the first half of the book. And also to be fair, I did receive this book as an ARC, though I would have bought it regardless.

Wonderful job, Ms. Derrick! You've definitely become one of my favorite authors, and I cannot wait to read more!!
