Merciless

I really like all these books, some I am re-reading, like this one. I still have a hard time getting into their relationship after all the drama. He was a total a-hole to her after discovering her and finding out a lot about her situation. She wasn’t there voluntarily or did anything to him voluntarily and he was still a complete tool. He even said it himself but then still was mean to her, at the hospital and when he came home. He needed to soften a little more and truly be understanding. He irked me too much for me to give into the reconciliation. She deserved better.

Even though I’ve read the Alpha Elite Bodyguards series out of a sequence, but I kinda glad I read Collins’s story. Next to Talon, Collins is sort of another comic relief with his true to life philosophy regarding categorize two types of women: bleeders and trouble. In his experience in his own story, the woman whom he had a one night stand but was the only woman whom he truly loved, ultimately broke his heart by walking out on him and keeping his son a secret for three years?!? Brookelyn wasn’t exactly a great character and unfortunately, I think in hindsight Collins deserved can do so much better. But unfortunately, there were surrounding circumstances that made Brookelyn’s poor judgment and bad life choices that managed to recapture Collins’s heart again after being separated from each other for three years. I’ve always loved the previous characters from the other bodyguards books like Talon, Andre, Marek, Sawyer, Tyler and briefly introducing Ty Asher who was later have his own story in Fearless. I liked Collins but Brookelyn not so much.

Loved this story and is my favorite, so far.
