Zac and Diane, the rest of the story.
Zac and Diane’s relationship in the first book was very hot as well as full of bickering and small fights, but they really face adversity in this book. At first I didn’t like it that much because Zac is such a jerk in some of it. However, there is no denying he loves Diane. The problem is that sometimes love just isn’t enough. Especially when it comes out as jealous and controlling.
Zac’s problems stemmed from the fact that he has secrets from Diane and he is afraid that if those secrets are revealed, there is no way she will continue to love him and he will lose her. She is the light in his life and he is paranoid. This happens a lot in books where the characters have secrets and it is kind of a self fulfilling prophecy when the character thinks something bad will happen so they do everything to prevent it which makes things so bad that when it is revealed, it isn’t necessarily the secret that is the issue, but everything the person did to keep it a secret.
When in truth, if Zac would just trust Diane and talk about what he did, she would probably be angry but would be better able to understand because there wouldn’t be a bunch of bad behavior on top of the secret to make it look like she can’t trust him at all.
I am not going to go into specifics about what happens in this book, other than to say that I did end up liking the story, though not as much as book 1. I like the fact that Diane truly stands up for herself and doesn’t just forgive Zac because she loves him and wants to be with him. She realizes that love isn’t the only thing in a relationship.
I do like Zac as a person also. Not only is he totally hot and dreamy, but there are many times and ways that he shows not only how much he wants Diane but how much he cherishes her. That is something that isn’t often shown in books and even less in real life. The way he watches her when she sleeps, the way he carries her when she is tired, removes her clothes and tucks her into bed. He runs the bath for her and holds her when she is unaware of it.
The story is not quite as steamy as the first book, but there is still plenty of sizzle. I give it a heat index of 3 flames out of 5 . There were also some very solid supporting characters, such as their friend Chris, Diane’s friend Julia and her ex-boss Orfeas who is now together with Julia. I would like to read their story from the beginning. I hope that is in the works next for this author. They also had a contentious romance and I think it would be a good one.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
This is the 2nd book I’ve read written by Demetra Georgiou; she has done a great job at writing a good book; I can’t wait to read more of her books.
The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.
I loved the chemistry between the characters.

This conclusion to Diane and Zac’s story was nothing short of mind-blowing! If you thought the drama, twists and turns were a wild ride just wait until the story unfolds, those questions you wanted answers to begin to unravel, you will be left utterly speechless! There were so many moments I was left holding my breath waiting for the other shoe to drop, so to speak and drop it did leaving me gasping and jaw-dropped. Diane and Zac’s story is filled with revenge, lies and secrets but through it all they eventually find each other and a love that is unbreakable. This duet is one I would recommend and definitely read again!
This is book two in the Give & Take Duet. This is the conclusion for Zac and Diane. Can Zac let his revenge go? Can Diane risk her heart? Both of these characters continue to struggle but are helplessly drawn back to one another. One of them is going to have to be all in and risk it all for the other to let go…..but which one caves first? A really good conclusion for Zac and Diane’s story, I really enjoyed reading their ending. Enjoy!

So many twist and turns and so many questions are finally answered. I wanted to cry and scream with the characters. The author sucked me in and I couldn’t put it down. And I wish there was a second epilogue. I got so teary eyed with the ending and the author did such a great job on writing it with a shocking angle I didn’t see coming.

I couldn’t wait to start this one…. I need to know what happen to Zac & Diane’s relationship
ღ How much more can she Give him? How much more will he Take from her? The second installment & unfortunately the conclusion to Zac & Diane story
He gives me nothing, yet he demands everything!
These two are toxic for each other. At times I just got so tired of their bickering over every little thing it’s a miracle these two did not kill each other …between the all the lies & secrets that Zac were telling ….. their arguments. At one point I actually wanted to throw my Kindle across the room to just tell them to shut the heck up… For them to decide whether or not they truly wanted to be together or not
I just loved the backstory with Julia & Orfeas! I wouldn’t mind at all if the author decides to write about Chris or Nick
*Hope you enjoy this read & also always keep in mind this is just my opinion+ Also I wouldn’t never discourage anyone from reading this book.
What a wild and crazy ride! I thoroughly enjoyed this, & highly recommend to readers++
Happy Reading & Enjoy ——–Paulette Alphas Review
The second part to Zac and Diane. This is the rest of their story. And what an ending these two go on. This one was just as interesting as the first one. You are still on the wild ride with these two. The relationship between these two is still up and down. You don’t know what is going to happen between these two from day to day. The writer did a good job keeping you gripped with this storyline and characters. Enjoyable from beginning to end.
This is the 2nd and concluding part of this duet, and Diane and Zac’s story continues. Zac is back when he realises what he lost, but can he redeem himself, and can they overcome the obstacles in their path? This is a good story, and I look forward to reading more from this talented author.
OMG…what a great book to end the Give and Take Duet! Zac and Diane have explosive chemistry! The problem is they can’t seem to get on the same page. Zac loves the only way he knows how. Diane loves with all of her heart and soul. But once Diane finds out about all of the secrets Zac has been keeping what will happen? Can they push past the obstacles that seem to be lurking at every corner? This book and duet are a must read! I highly recommend this book, duet, and author!
