So much suspense and anticipation in Jake and Emily’s story. It had he holding my breath in places. I couldn’t put the book down. I hope Trent has a story coming. He needs to come back.
I had already read all the HIS brothers books before this one and since it was in a box set and I had already read the other two and all the others after it, I had forgotten that I hadn’t read this one….what was I waiting for ! Obviously I knew about Jake and Emily but didn’t know their story and now my palm is slapping my forehead for not reading this sooner.
What a read and a read that had everything I love, a hot alpha man, a strong feisty woman, some suspense, danger, steamy and sensual scenes, love and of course a HEA.
Jake left Emily after she seduced him one night and her older brother finds them and kicks Jake out of the house to never return. Jake grew up with the Hamilton brothers and Emily, the younger sister, has always loved Jake. When he leaves a piece of him behind with Emily, Emily grows up quickly, caring for their daughter and raising her alone with the help of her brothers until she moves away, wanting her independence from the overbearing and protective brothers. Now 4 years later he returns and he has realized he loves Emily as well and will do anything to get her back for a second chance and do things right. He doesn’t know he is a father so when he sees Amber, he knows and now he has even more of a reason to make Emily his. But his past and hers leaves them in danger, with all the family coming out in full force to protect them, Jake also has to convince Emily that they were meant to be.
WOW…Jake is my second favorite HIS man (Matt being my first). I loved what he didn’t do during the four years apart from Emily, making her the last he’s been with…swoon. I loved how he didn’t spot fighting for her, no matter what…swoon. I loved hat he was willing to do anything to keep them safe, even from himself…swoon. I loved how even though there was a misunderstanding, it was taken care of quickly and swiftly. A read with plenty of suspense that kept me turning the pages, a read that flowed perfectly, a read that left a few tears running down my cheeks and a read that left the biggest smile on my face with how it all turned out.
This was a good read. Not my favorite of this series, but still interesting. There is steam and story, which many authors forget to include something to keep the reader’s interest. Worth the time spent.

His Return, is the third title in the HIS Securities series.
Jake and Emily’s story is a second chance romance full of emotion, heat, humor, drama, secrets, angst, romance and danger. As with the previous titles in this series, there is a strong focus on love, loyalty and family. As I’ve come to expect from Ms Kell, this book is well written, entertaining and quite captivating. I had difficulty putting this book down, I was thoroughly engaged with Jake and Emily’s tale.
Jake disappears without a word for four years after an altercation with his best friend and foster brother. When Jake is finally re-united with his family and Emily, the chemistry and feelings that never went away are re-awakened, but the path to finding their happy ever after is far from smooth.
Their story is both heartbreaking and heartwarming. This title focuses more on the budding relationship between the hero and heroine, rather than on the danger they are facing. The twists and turns, and secrets just keep coming, and kept me completely captivated with the story.
I loved how much the other members of the Hamilton family appeared in this title, and found the banter to be very fun and engaging. I look forward to reading the next title in this series.
This one by far is my fave of the series! More realistic of threats that a security team would face, I think. Oh and I cried at work, while listening to this on audio. Man, I love this book!
So So Good .I first read this on kindle unlimited and I injoyed it so much . I then bought it it is my favorite out of the series so far. JAKE AND EMILY .I highly recommend this story Action ,Strong Hot alpha men an strong woman an suspense a great romance .will not be disappointed .
I started the HIS series with book 3. It got me hooked.
Sheila has a talent.
This is the third audible I have heard in this series, and as with the others, it’s another great audiobook. Though each one is a standalone, you would benefit in reading/listening to the books 1 and 2 since most of the characters participate in all of the stories.
This one I found to be more emotional than the previous two . The main characters are Jake Cavanaugh and Emily Hamilton. Jake was the foster boy that the Hamilton’s took under their wing, later became an FBI agent, went undercover and was captured and tortured.
Emily fell in love with him when she was 6 years old and when she turned 18 she went to Jake’s bedroom changing her and his life forever.
He was beaten and thrown out of the house by Emily’s brother AJ without knowing the consequences of that night. Everyone was filled with regrets and now that he is back , all their lives will once again change.
The plot is engaging and the characters are complex. The story is filled with suspense, bad guys, hunky good guys and of courses romance.
But it’s also a story about family, loyalties, integrity and sacrifices. Not everything is black and white and not everyone finds their happiness. Much like life which is what makes this one a very touching audiobook.
The narrator, Carson Beck, once again does a great job and brings the story to life.
I was gifted this audible. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
So glad to have read this story. I was so curious as to what had happened to Jake. I’m glad he was found & returned to claim what was his.
His Return was similar the other books in this series. The book had the bit of suspense you yearned for from the other books in the series. Their was suspense and mystery where HIS comes in to investigate and keep Emily safe. This book had more of a romantic side with Emily and Jake. There wasn’t all hot and steamy sex in this book as there was in the others. It was definitely an easy read. I’m looking forward to reading His Chance next in the series.
His Return rocks. I love 2nd chance at love stories especially ones that keep you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what will happen next. When the hero is a true alpha male and feels like he’s has broken the trust of his brothers he walks away from the family he loves and makes some really stupid decisions. Jake truly didn’t really realize how much he loved Emily until he walked away. After his capture, torture, and return to America he has to see Emily again. The story of their reconnecting and all the secrets they have to get through will stop your heart from beating and you will not be able to put this book down. Sheila Kell is a phenomenal writer with a way with words. She spins pictures in her readers minds and they are totally enthralled by her talent
This is a story based on confusion and a second chance that is filled with danger, excitement, thrills, action, romance of the hottest and drama, humor, heartbreak, passion and very steamy. I really liked Jake in the other books in this series. As we already know if you read them he had an altercation with his family and disappeared for a few years. He is back with his feeling in line and the women he loves in his sights only to find her in a big pickle that could mean life and death to so many.
Emily find her job isn’t as she thought it was and with her uncovered a scheme at work that puts not only her life on the line but her daughters as well. She has a full plate and with Jake’s return she must come clean and face Jake again. Just when life was tough enough she finds it gets tougher.
I loved the danger, the secrets, how the ploy plays out, and the passion as the characters reconnect. The author has always been able to keep me on the edge of my seat from the first page to the last. I liked how you could read this and not feel like you have missed something if you haven’t read the other books in this series. It is an action pack read that really is exciting and pulls you in. I really loved how strong the characters are, how well the blend together and the steam is thrilling. If you haven’t read one of this authors books you do not know what you are missing.
Sheila Kell’s HIS series is easily one of my favorites.
The first two books in the series were amazing and put the author on my auto read list.
HIS Return is Jake’s story.
After one confusing night with the one woman he’s always wanted but never could have Jake’s best friend tosses him out, sending him away while he’s still trying to come to grips with what happened.
He ends up taking a dangerous job that takes him away for four years.
Four years of his life wasted.
Four years missing the woman he loves.
Four years without his best friend.
Now he’s back and he intends to get Emily back. She’s all he’s thought about for years and he’s not going to let her go a second time.
Emily always loved Jake, even though he’s older she doesn’t see that as an obstacle. She followed him and her brother around like a puppy when she was younger but he never looks at her the way she does him, moves on to another girl and each time it breaks her young heart. On her 18th birthday she goes to him. Finally she sees that the attraction is mutual she thinks she’s finally going to be his only things don’t quite work they way you want them to.
Her brother storms in and throws Jake out telling him to stay away from his sister.
Emily tried to protect him, tried to explain but for some reason Jake just looked lost. Now he’s gone and it’s ripped her heart out.
Fast forward four years and suddenly he’s back. She doesn’t know why he never fought for her just that he didn’t and that’s always hurt her. But she’s got more to worry about than Jake, she stumbled onto something at work that puts her life in danger, and the life of someone she loves more than anything. Jake’s in for a shock when he finally sees Emily again but he refuses to give up on her. No matter how much she tries to push him away she still loves him.
When she finds out the truth about why he didn’t come back sooner will it change her feelings for him?
Then we have the ending. I’m heartbroken and contemplated yelling at MS Kell. I’m not giving anything away but Les & Trent. My heart is broken and I’m hoping the next story intends to fix this for me!
