Julian (Trinity Academy 4)
by Michelle Heard
***5 stars***
Julian had a story to tell behind those dark eyes and haunted spirit, and with Jamie’s help, it was brought to the surface.
Jamie’s first few weeks at Trinity Academy are, needless to say, more eventful than a room full of bombs. She’s left in a dangerous and very vulnerable state, leading Julian to discover his feelings run deeper for this damsel in distress than he ever bargained for.
Once again, the gang stands by the ones they love, and will do anything to protect the lives of everyone involved. The crossover with the Enemies to Lovers series is the added cherry on top. Let’s not forget Miss Sebastian who can brighten any room with her bedazzling charm and wit.
All around fantastic and if you’re a fan of either series, you won’t be disappointed! I guarantee it!
I recommend you read the Trinity Academy series first if you haven’t, even though this is a stand alone book, those prior books are excellent anyway and so worth the read. Julian Reyes has spent years ignoring women and living only for CRC Holdings until he starts to loosen up and explores his music, this leads to a meeting with young Jamie Truman.
The. mystery behind who is trying to hurt or possibly kill Jamie isn’t very hard to work out but it’s the why that has you dumbfounded and guessing until all of the puzzle pieces are in place. Very intriguing and I loved every minute of it. There is definitely plenty of drama and nail-biting action that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.
Julian wasn’t my favourite character before but he is certainly one that I now really like. In this story we get to see a softer side of him and understand him much better. Jamie is a terrific character with her sassy mouth and confident outlook on life. It was also wonderful to have the boys and girls from the previous books in the story again. Preston Culpepper intrigues me a lot, even his name does, and I would like to know more about him. I think it’s the way this author just tells you bits and pieces about characters that entices you to desperately want to know more.
A thoroughly entertaining story I recommend to everyone.
***5 Freaking OFF THE CHARTS STARS***
Michelle Heard’s way of writing is phenomenal. She does the near impossible with me. It’s rare for me to enjoy a book with insta love and where the H is an alpha sweetheart. (Pretty much an a**hole to everyone but his lady) Well. Michelle makes me fall head over heels for her male characters!
You first meet Julian in Falcon’s book which is book 1 of the Trinity Academy series. He’s Falcon’s broody older brother. Well the chemistry is instantly blazing from the first page between Jamie and Julian. We’re talking panty melting chemistry here! The banter, the tension, the protectiveness, the love, just everything between them will have you all in your feelings!
Next is the banter between the guys. Of course Falcon, Mason and Lake have to give Julian a hard time. I had so much trouble reading some parts with a straight face because I loved the banter. It was hilarious! And that’s something because it’s really hard to make me LOL while reading.
The dynamic between all these characters are amazing. Michelle’s writing makes you feel a part of that dynamic, that family. The way they fight to protect each other, the love and loyalty they have for each other, just the all out compassion they show and how easy they accept someone as family. I loved every bit of it!
Jamie and Julian’s love story is one that will grab a hold of you and not let go. This book had me feeling so many emotions. I felt everything Jamie felt throughout the book. I BEYOND recommend this book and this whole series to everyone!!!!
I love this book/series so much! This is Julian’s book. I have loved these characters since the first book. This story like the first three in the series captivated me so much. I read it in one sitting. These characters are easy to fall in love with. Even Kingsley, Layla, Lee, and Jamie. Also Preston. I want to go back soon and re-read them. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK/SERIES!!
This book is absolutely amazing. Full of angst, suspense, heartbreak, twists & turns, and heat ! SO GOOD!!! It grabs your attention and interest from the first page. The characters and storyline was fascinating. Bravo!
