Description

This trilogy should have been a duet - this last installment felt like a lot of filler - repetitive thoughts of unworthiness from Rochester. There were also some typos 😱 and it was pretty short. In the end, I thoroughly enjoyed this billionaire and nanny romance with a hint/inspiration of Jane Eyre. Beau and Jane had incredible chemistry with each other and the love scenes were highly charged and erotic. I only wish their story was longer because I will miss these two and Paige dearly. As a whole, this series was another very solid read by Skye Warren even though I wouldn't exactly categorize this as a "dark romance." Beau and Jane had some kinks but it wasn't the main focus of their romance. I loved how Beau was gruff and inexperienced when it came to expressing his emotions and feelings. However, once he realizes his love for Jane, he is the type of person who will never let her go. Fans of Skye Warren will absolutely love this series and those who have been reading the Rochester trilogy will be satisfied with the final chapter of Beau and Jane's story.

I know Skye, I have read a lot by her, I’m confident in her story telling abilities, I trust her to guide me into dubious situations where dark and light cohabit. So I didn’t esitate to embark on this adventure, besides Jane Eyre has always been one of my favourite classics, what more could I ask for? Yet, this felt like it dragged, after all has been said and done I’m inclined to assert a trilogy wasn’t really needed. Skye Warren is an absolute wizard with a pen. There are very few authors, that I have read, that continuously take me surprise or vest me in their storylines and Skye is probably one of the best. It is so ridiculously thrilling to get lost in one of her stories. One minute you think you know what’s happening and the next … not even a little and everything has turned upside down and sideways and somehow, she brilliantly brings it all together in a HEA to beat all HEAs. I mean the woman outdoes her own work every single time! Warning: This is Book Three of the Rochester trilogy and continues the story from Book Two, there may be spoilers from the previous books.My love was dangerous for so long. To me. To everyone else. I never thought I'd feel this kind of obsessive love again, but it's here." Emily's justification was horrible- I'm sorry but you cheated on your bf with his brother, got married to said brother- and still managed to act as if it wasn't your own fault? And then she went ahead and cheated on her husband too. I didn't expect Beau and Jane's epic ending to hit me with so much angst! Best Kept Secret by Skye Warren was intense, heartaching and heart stopping. A hint of darkness. An edge of suspense. The all consuming soul deep love with electrifying chemistry. This trilogy is perfection! After having read and gotten invested in Jane’s and Beau’s world in Private Property, I was curious to see how it will all end. I thought it was a decent conclusion. It hurts to be this hard. Hurts more than I can explain. The hurt rises through my abs to my chest. I'm one long chain of need for Jane Mendoza."

From the beginning, Skye has woven a story that is atmospherically consuming- evoking the gothic tone and tenor of Bronte’s original in a way both nostalgically referential but clever and fresh. The unsettling and complicated and long buried family secrets, dark secrets, a imposing manor-type house precariously isolated on a misty cliff, the subtle moments of terror embused in the suspense, and cast of brooding and perplexing characters has given the Rochester Trilogy the same gothic flair that made Bronte’s work so maddeningly transfixing. And as I’ve said before, Skye Warren’s take on romantic suspense is perfectly poised to deliver on a story that embodies that tone, she’s an author who has excelled at atmospheric, romantic and suspenseful story telling. And I don't think I will ever stop complaining about that child🙃🔪- The number of meltdowns and crying actually gave me a headache. Jane is more capable than she was in the past, she is still unsure of her place in Beau’s life. Though he definitely wants her in his bed. The mystery behind the murder of Beau’s brother is a good storyline and the cast of characters in this story was terrific. I really liked Beau’s best friend Mateo, Jane’s friend Noah, Emily and Paige. This was a great ending to the trilogy and I loved the Jane/Rochester romance. I don't know where I got the idea that I wouldn't be enough for him. He's more than enough for both of us, even at his most broken."You definitely have to be in a particular mindset to read a romance story that’s heavy on tragedy and heartbreak, and be prepared for it to seep into your own emotions. I easily got affected by Jane’s insecurities, Beau’s indecisiveness, and especially Noah’s battered heart. It’s just another book where the characters use sex as a weapon (Chapter 7, Chapter 18). They treat sex like having a work out as punishment after having a meal. It’s good for your body but not good for your soul. Having sex, like eating, and working out should be enjoyed. People with BDSM lifestyle enjoy punishment and pain in their sex because they communicate what they want. These people barely talk. Should we, as readers, believe what Jane and Beau are thinking about each other based on their assumption during sex, a moment where people usually lose their minds? This is why sometimes I hate dual POV. It’s a too convenient way, I even dare say, lazy way, for authors to tell their stories. She then abandons her daughter and blames the hero for not helping her with her marriage (to his brother), despite not telling him anything and just magically hoping he knows all of her problems.

Apart from the repetitive monologues, and random drama (that really was not explained/ fleshed out properly), one of the main things I didn't like about this book was the actual plot itself/ reveal to the series as a whole. I O N L Y W A N T Y O U. I write it again and again and again. I O N L Y W A N T Y O U. O N L Y Y O U. O N L Y Y O U. O N L Y Y O U." We’re here! This is where it ends right where it all began, with Jane and Beau. This journey was long, filled with grief and pain but a glimmer of light finally came up on the horizon, hope wasn’t lost and family love eventually won.

The Finale for Beau and Jane's story is here! I have been waiting so long for this book, especially after that crazy ending of book 2. That was a cruel cliffhanger 😂🥺 The first half of the overall story was very much inspired by the classic tale, Jane Eyre, but Warren has given the final leg of Jane’s and Beau’s story her own.

Once again, I’m in the minority. I’ve been sitting on this review for a few days now going through a catalogue of emotions over it. You ask if I liked it? sorta, kinda. Did I hate it? no, not exactly. I don’t know what happened. It had so much potential. Or maybe I had unrealistically high expectations? That must be it because everybody else seems to have loved it. to put it simply, it was boring. Boring in a way that kept you reading anyway because you kept thinking, it’s going to get better, but it never did. I’m still not sure what exactly Beau was brooding over. What the hell his secret was that made him the antichrist.The bright side was Jane’s development as a character. She’s grown and matured over the course of the trilogy which I liked. Oh and there’s a HEA. A predictable one but a HEA nonetheless.
