I just wanted to crawl inside him and be a permanent part of him. I couldn’t get close enough to him, even though we were melded together, our bodies moving in perfect sync with each other. I wanted to be wrapped around his heart, live within his soul, consume his mind.
That was the selfish part of an obsessive, unrelenting love. I wanted to be his every waking thought, every breath he took...
Dane captivated Ari from the first moment their eyes locked. Every second thereafter proved they were either fated for love... or devastation.
Ari DeMille Bax has been the target of the axed investors of Dane’s exclusive resort, 10,000 Lux. They will stop at nothing to get their revenge—no matter who they have to take out in order to get to Dane. But as the final stand comes to a head, deception and betrayal threaten to rock the foundation of the life Ari and Dane have started to rebuild. Their intense love and desire for each other continues to burn deep, but the evil surrounding them could rip them apart for good.
To save all that they cherish, Ari and Dane must lay their lives and their hearts on the line, once and for all…

What a great way to end a fantastic series. If you have read the first 2 books in the Burned Deep Trilogy and loved them then I am happy to say that this will not disappoint.
Book 3 picks up right where book 2 ended – Dane and Ari are trying to figure out who is trying to kill them and why. Similar to the first 2 there is a lot of romance and suspense and now we finally get to find out why all of the things that have been happening to Dane and Ari. We do get to see others in the group especially Kyle the faithful best friend to Ari and Amano who has sworn to protect Dane and his family no matter what.
As with the other books, this story is told completely from Ari’s POV as it should be. Ms. Fox really puts you in her shoes and while I really want to know what’s going on since this is Ari’s story you find out when she does. I do have to give the author a lot of credit since it is told from Ari’s POV the author does find a way around that for the climax of the story which is fun and extremely unique. The writing is fast paced with a lot of dialog as the characters try to solve the mystery which was very detailed. The payoff was good and it left me wanting to find out what happens next to Kyle. I hope there is another story there in the future.
Overall I am so glad I found and invested in this series, it’s a great ride with fantastic writing.
