Degrees of Control (A Prestian Series Book 3)
By: Via Mari
5 out of 5 stars
The story Degrees of Control (A Prestian Series Book 3) by Via Mari is a contemporary romance book. It is a story that hooks you in from the very beginning and I didn’t want to put down until I had read the final page. I have loved this series since reading the first book. One of the reasons is the amazing characters of Chase Prestian and Katarina Mellers. In this story, Katarina deals with her issues of trust and of information regarding actions that have been taken in which she doesn’t feel right about. After turning down Chase’s marriage proposal she soon finds herself having to pretend that she has accepted in order to draw out the man who has put her and others in danger. You can feel the conflict that Katarina has as she knows that she still loves Chase, however, doesn’t know how to reconcile that with her personal convictions of right and wrong. Chase is always looking out for Katarina and her safety. He is still fiercely protective of her. He is also not willing to give up on the feelings of love that he has for Katarina. Both Chase and Katarina still feel the passion and desire that has always been part of their relationship. Will they be able to navigate the rough waters that they find themselves in and come out together on the other side? Will the one that has put their lives in an upheaval be caught? How much danger are they really in? Read this story to find out. With each story that I read, I only grow to love Chase and Katarina more. They are a couple that I believe are meant for each other. Their steamy romance makes the temperature in the room rise. Don’t miss out on this next part of their story. Highly recommended book and series.
Degrees of Control: A Prestian Series, Book 3 by Via Mari
4 out of 5 Stars
This continuation of the Prestian Series is a fantastic read. This book is not a standalone. You will need to read books 1 and 2 to fill in the gaps of where this story picks up. Katarina has shattered Chase. She has rejected his marriage proposal and now he is at a loss. He still wants her, but Katarina is having a hard time coming to terms with being wanted by a man like Chase. They are thrown together in a crisis and they must learn to navigate this new dynamic between the two of them while Katarina still tries to deny to both herself and Chase that she isn’t what he wants, however, she soon begins to realize that she was wrong all along. This book is hot. Passion and sexual desire are straight off the charts and the plot within the store gives you something to work through while Katarina and Chase circle each other like hawks.

Degrees of Control is book three in the Prestian series by Via Mari. This series is high energy drama and suspense and often left me on the edge of my seat, anticipating the next move. It is such an interactive series for me, and one that just keeps getting more thrilling, more passionate, more suspenseful.
Katarina wants it all but has trust issues. Frustration was what I felt when she became difficult. Chase is the alpha who is used to getting what he wants, when he wants it, so he has to make adjustments and seems to handle it a little better than Kate. Their lives are certainly not dull, which makes for action aplenty, and many nail biting, hair raising moments. Just what I crave in a romance.
Via Mari has excelled again. This author drags out so many feels, readers may need a little rest to reflect after each story. 5 stars.
It doesn’t matter to me that Chase is a little bit controlling because he is a multibillionair trying to keep Kate safe it is understandable with what is happening. what gets to me is that he keeps askingher to trust him but hes acting like he doesn’t trust her enough to tell her what was going on. I loved that he started opening up and telling her things that will and are happening. it was a great show of friendship when Kate went to stay with Jenny when she really needed her so sweet and shows what a great friend she is. I really enjoyed it when Kate took control of a big situation close to the end of the book.
The story continues to pull you in further and further. Characters are still amazingly written. You will find yourself trying to help them make decisions as you read
