Heavenly Young doesn’t have time for romance. The innocent nursing student is struggling to care for her ailing father, keep a roof over their head, and start a new career. But fate decides to complicate her world even more by putting two very different men in her path and forcing her to make a choice that will change her life forever.Dr. Ken Beckman—vascular surgeon by day, super-alpha by … by night—has three hard-and-fast rules: Never date where he works, never touch vanillas, and never get tangled up with a virgin. But the moment he meets Heavenly, he aches to toss his scruples aside and claim the untouched beauty. She’s not ready for someone like him…but he wants her too much to walk away—even though he’s not the only man caught in her spell.
Seth Cooper, ex-cop turned private eye, isn’t looking for a happily ever after, just a hot-and-sweaty good time. And the minute he claps eyes on Heavenly, he’s all for coaxing the angel into his bed. But soon, she’s so deep under his skin that he’s willing to put his broken past behind him and turn his life upside down for her. But he’s got competition…
When it came to helping friends, Beck and Seth were in sync. But now they’re vying for the same girl, and the games get vicious—until they realize Heavenly is keeping secrets from them both. Will they call a truce and work together again before they both lose her for good?

This book I have been anticipating since I read Raine’s book. The Choice is INTENSE, BURSTING WITH PASSION, SOME DRAMA, AND INCREDIBLE, JAW-DROPPING SUSPENSE! The ending leaves you hanging from a cliff…you know the next book will feature more drama and more seduction and I am DYING to get my hands on it!
I have been DREAMING about Beck and Seth since they were introduced in the first Doms of her Life books. Beck seemed so dark, dangerous, almost wolfish, while Seth seemed a bit more charming and sweet. In The Choice seeing Beck and Seth go head to head as they both try to seduce and convince Heavenly into their beds had jealously zipping through my system. Beck turns out to be incredibly caring, protective, surprisingly sweet all while keeping his secrets. Seth turned out to be quite alluring and charming. He seduces Heavenly one date at a time yet still managed to create space between them when he thought he didn’t have much chance. And Heavenly….she is so gentle, sweet, the ultimate caring person who I honestly adored. I LOVED it when both Seth and Beck worked together to help Heavenly and when they finally take her to bed…I thought my kindle was going to self destruct from the heat! So. Freaking. Hot. I am so in awe of this first book and am on the edge..BEGGING for the next book like YESTERDAY! A ABSOLUTE MUST MUST MUUUUUUST READ!
The Choice gets a INCREDIBLY ADDICTING TEN WHOLE SEXY STARS!
This book will have you laughing, crying and wanting more.
The long awaited story of Heavenly, Beck and Seth. An extremely well written story which will pull you in from start to finish. Heavenly, is a naive woman who has lived through more than what most people could imagine. Beck, a surgeon with a past no one knows about and who just happens to be a sadist. Seth, a PI who is used to being in charge since he took over being head of his household when his father died. Can Beck and Seth win her love, or will they have to learn to be a team to get her?
Shayla Black created a story which not only draws you in but you don’t want to leave. I cannot wait for the next book to see what happens.
I love how this story stays in line with Raines story. It was so awesome to see this relationship bud. So many emotions! I highly recommend. On to book 2.
This is my second round reading this, and just like the first, it blew me away. Shayla, Jenna, and Isabelle are a force to be reckoned with. I love it when two of my favorite come together and write a series of books, so to have three of them? LOVE!
The Choice is a spin-off to the Doms Of Her Life series, and it Heavenly, Beck and Seth’s story, and what a hell of a story it was. I went into this knowing that it would be brilliant. These authors are all favorites of mine. So I knew, but I didn’t realize how brilliant.
Heavenly, Beck and Seth’s story is not an easy one, it’s an emotional ride. It will play on your heartstrings. It sure as hell did with mine.
Heavenly is a smart woman, she’s young, still learning about life while having to care for her ill father, and that is hard enough as is, but she is also studying her nursing and volunteers at the hospital.
Enters Beck, A hard-working, skilled surgeon, a man I couldn’t help but fall in love with from the first moment I read him. Him and Heavenly cross paths and the moment Beck sees Heavenly, he knew he needed her, wanted her and would do anything he could to have her… But things aren’t always that simple.
Enters Seth, He’s A PI who is just as smitten and lusting over Heavenly and wanting to claim her just like Beck is…
Ideally, for Heavenly, it would be easier if these two just got along but instead in a bid to try and get her affection, her attention these two go to great length to try and outdo each other… It started to feel like a game to me. Two Alpha AF males chasing after that one beautiful woman… If I was Heavenly, I sure as hell wouldn’t be complaining… But as they both start to get to know Heavenly more… Things come to light, things start to shift… for all of them. Heavenly wants them both, but are these two able to put all this raised testosterone aside and come together to create a relationship that involves all three of them to get what they want and need? Or will this fight to win Heavenly only chase her away?
Even in the second round reading/listening to this book, I found myself completely fixated on these three. Seth and Beck are everything and more when it comes to Alpha males. I was putty in these authors’ hands when it came to these two. I adored Heavenly… She was a well-written characters that you can’t help but smile about when you read her parts.
This BOOK… THIS FREAKING BOOK… Actually, not just the book or series. The authors… They are freaking amazing and are the reason I have fallen and now obsess over so in love with romances with Alpha, hot as hell, domineering and downright dirty at times romances that continue to devour me whole. They are the OG’s for me when it comes to all things romance.
The story was enticing, addictive, all-consuming, delicious, with a high level of heat and written to perfection… Just flawless!
All in all, after the second read/listen. I cannot fault this book nor the authors. As I said, these three ladies are a force to be reckoned with and continue to release books I fall in love with within the first chapter.
5 Stars!
