Carly Phillips you did it again!! This Second Chance novel is one of the best I have read. I was so prepared not to like Julian… OH I was so not wanting too. This is one of those cases where I will say you really want to have read the other books in this series to really get why everyone is going on about Julian and Kendall.
This book addresses mental illness and bipolar disorder with a frank and very real understanding that makes this read very refreshing. I love seeing the growth in both Kendall and Julian and how Carly Phillips doesn’t give us cookie cutter romance, but takes the time to build in depth relationships not only with Julian and Kendall but also we get to see how their relationship rippled out to her relationship with her twin and also with the “non” relationship between the ex partners Julian and Lexie’s husband and his friends.
This is definitely a re-read book. Heck the whole series is one of those that will be worth re-reading time and time again. 5 stars.
This is the PERFECT ending to this series! Kendall and Julian have a complicated story and you would not think they would be able to come together again. Kendall is now fully medicated and healthy and working as a dog walker and for a shelter. She is now happy but something is missing from her life. She feels alone, because she is. Julian has been sober and is working the steps to stay that way. He hit rock bottom and has clawed his way back up to start a business and build his life. Something is missing for him, too. Trust is not easy to come by but once it is found and the foundation is established, it was beautiful watching these two find their way. There was a lot going on and so much goodness and light in this story it was a pleasure to read.
I definitely recommend this one. Even if you don’t read the rest of the series (but why wouldn’t you!) you have to read this one!
Wow, what an incredibly powerful story about second chances. The story of Julian and Kendall touches on some very sensitive subjects but are handled by this author with care and respect. Julian and Kendall have a not so great past, so when they meet up again, it doesn’t go so well. Julian wants to prove to her that he’s not the same man he once was. And Kendall wants to believe in him. Can he show her that he truly had changed? This story takes your on their journey and I enjoyed it so much, I read it in one sitting. This will take you on an emotional ride and you will never want it to end. I truly loved it!
This is Book 4 of the Billionaire Boys Series
This is the story of Julian & Kendall. Julian used to be a partner in Blink with his three best friends, but he got into drugs and other things. He is now clean and owns a freelance cyber security business. Kendall is bipolar and Julian used her previously to get revenge on his old partners. He got clean and she went into a hospital for long term care. They meet when she’s out of the hospital for a while, and her meds are adjusted and she is living a full life, which is getting better day by day. It’s an uphill battle every day for them. They have their ups and downs, mostly dictated by their past with her twin and his past friends. This isn’t a simple story, by any means, but a fantastic one. There are always steamy scenes in Carly’s books. I enjoyed this series so much. I always look forward to Carly’s books, and can’t wait for the next.
I found this book very informative concerning addiction and more importantlly Bi-polar disorder.
I have been looking forward to Julian and Kendall’s story and Carly did not disappoint. This was truly a sexy beautiful read with the struggles and obstacles these two faced, yet over came with the determination to move on. If you are looking for a heartwarming sexy second chance romance this is the book for you!
The ultimate bad boy is back and he’s going after the one that got away.
When Kendall first met Julian, she was in a good place and he used that to his advantage. Granted Julian didn’t know of Kendall’s mental state when he put his plan into motion. After things went down the way they did, Kendall is hurt in more ways than one.
Julian was shocked to learn about Kendall’s bipolar disorder and they way he used her was when he hit rock bottom.
Now he’s sober and doing everything he can to lead a better life and he’ll everything he can to make things right with the woman that he can’t forget.
Will Kendall accept his apology? Or will she walk away with giving him a chance? Has Julian really changed? And if he has, will he be able to prove to everyone that his a changed man and deserves a second chance.
I really didn’t want to like Julian, I tried to fight it with every breathe I took but he won me over, heart and soul. He isn’t the same man he once was and it shines off the pages.
I loved watching Kendall and Julian get to know each other better and fall in love. Their connection is undeniable and it’s easy to understand why these two are drawn to each other. The support they give each other is through good and bad. I really loved these two.
This series has been a extraordinary, but Going In Deep is by far my favorite. It’s an intense, emotional journey that will pull at your heartstrings. A second chance isn’t always easy, but taking the risk could be the best thing you’ll ever do.
I loved this book’s storyline. This book’s storyline was sad . I loved the hot & steamy scenes. I loved Julian’s character. I loved Kendall’s character. I loved the message in this story . I loved the ending. Awesome job Ms. Phillips.
Have I mentioned to you how much I love Carly Phillips right now?!?! I have the privilege to read her work before it goes to the whole world. This book was one that I was super excited to read!! Just when you think the Billionaire Bad Boys series was over, she gives you a gift with Julian & Kendall!!
If you have read the entire series, then you will know what I am saying when I tell you that Julian is a total a$$!! I really never thought that there would be a situation that would make me change my mind. Well, well done Carly!! You completely turned a nasty guy into a guy that you want to love. In fact, I might even go as far as to say that this was my favorite book in the series!!
Kendall was completely betrayed by Julian once. Her heart was closed to anything having to do with him. Julian, by some miracle, was able to break through all of that and end up with the girl.
I have said this before in my reviews, and I’ll say it again. Carly Phillips has a way of taking characters and making you fall in love with them quickly. Not only that, but she is a master with her words and the book goes so quick that you are yearning for the characters to never end! That is talent!!
Thank you, Carly, for your amazing fun and lovable characters in the Billionaire Bad Boys series. It has been a complete delight to read!
