Loyalty tied us together, but love could tear us apart
Kane
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
We’ll work together, we’ll expose the truth
I’ll have his back, like he has mine
We’ve kept our secret for such a long time
At the end of the day, when we both fall
We’ll fight fire with fire, winner takes all
Our bond is strong, we’re close as can be
With you between us, can we be … winner takes all
Our bond is strong, we’re close as can be
With you between us, can we be three?
Rose
A rose by another name, was I ever sweet?
When I’m scared can you hear my heart beat?
When I’m alone at night, can you hear my thoughts?
Can you feel my regret for all those taunts?
If I should die before I wake will you care?
Or dance on the grave you helped me make?
When I fall for you, I’ll fall hard and deep
Why do you make me tremble and weep?
Make You is the second in the Boys of Trinity Hall Duet, and is book 5 of the Boys of Trinity Hall series. This dark college bully romance should be preceded by reading Take You, which is the first book in the duet, and book 4 in the series. Neither book in the duet can be read without the other.
These two DARK and angsty books make up an inter-connected stand-alone story within the Boys of Trinity Hall Series, and therefore can be read without reading the previous explosive books. However, for the best reading experience, it is recommended to first read books 1-3, starting with Break You.

Fox, Kane and Rose took me on another wild ride – full of deception, pain, pleasure and forgiveness.
The chemistry between the three of them is off the charts hot. There is no denying their connection to each other.
I’m going to be brutally honest.
Fox is super lucky to have Kane and Rose in his life. If I had been in their situation I wouldn’t not have been so forgiving.
Short, steamy and full of drama. It was a solid conclusion to their story.
Wowsa! Well I wasn’t expecting that!!
Talk about a mind-f#@&! This author really knows how to twist you around in circles and shove you flying out the other side.
This drama and suspense filled conclusion to the Boys of Trinity Hall and follow on from the cliffhanger of Take You, is one hell of a mind rattling ride.
Kane, Fox and Rose are a volatile combo, and the fireworks aren’t just confined to the bedroom, which I might add is hellishly HOT. You really will wonder if they have what it takes to make their connection work.
After were left totally hanging in the air after Take You, the intrigue kicks off quickly and really rides right through to the end.
I was really surprised (and maybe even a little disappointed) in just how far Fox would go for his twisted retribution.
Perhaps Ellis did even take it a little too far? Certainly there will be readers who will balk at the extent to which these characters go. So those sensitive to deceit, consider yourselves warned.
This story is not only fast paced, some may argue too fast, there’s also a lot to digest and even saying that, as this is the conclusion to this series of books, I would have liked to have seen the other members of Cygnus come together for some kind of closure to the journey of their nefarious organisation.
Perhaps we can coax a bonus novella from this author???
Altogether, this is a great ending for the remaining boys or rather men, of Trinity Hall and well worth taking the chance! 4.5 stars
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
Fox
Let player play. Let haters hate. I need my revenge. Don’t make me wait.Revenge is a dis Ill be serving cold. You don’t know it yet, but It will be bold. Before I take revenge I’ll dig two graves.One for my conscience, the other for your shame. Revenge is sweet, but I’m definitely not. I’m applying the hat, until you’re too hot.
This is the second book in a duet. You need to read Take You first or you’re going to be lost. I don’t even know how I am going to review this book and not give something away. This book is so full of twists and turns and will absolutely blow your mind. If you have read the first book you know that Rose, Kane and Fox are one combo that you just wait to explode. You have to wonder if they all have what it takes to make what they have work. This book will pick up right where Take You ended and it is one book that has so much going on you’re not going to be able to put it down.I thought I had a clue as to how much Fox wanted to get revenge, I just never thought I knew how far he would go to get his very twisted revenge. I don’t want to give anything away. Just don’t miss this duet. You are going to love it and be one the edge of your seat and thinking about this book days after you finish it just like I am.
A “FOX” is a cunning, crafty genius working alone to hunt his prey. Well that sums this character up beautifully in Make You the second book in this captivating duet.
This bully romance is sinister and twisted, there is a lot to take in however, it is brought to light with sarcasm and humor, a trait of this wonderful authors stories.
Revenge and retribution aside, we have three brilliant characters, that you feel for individually as the situation unfolds. Rose, Kane and Fox when they are together, they are smoking hot, the trio’s sex scenes so very visual.
Kane had my heart in this book he had found the love of his life, but does it come at the expense of another true deep-seated love? Have things gone too far?
I was delighted to see Xavier lay it all out on the line for us, it was the perfect way to show the dynamics of how Fox’s evil brainiac mind worked. Xavier Cross is such a cocky guy he is a real highlight.
As always there is a phenomenal epilogue. This one was just what I was waiting for and you delivered. Thank you! Big love for this duet and the whole series.
Wow…this book took me on a wild ride. My head is spinning. So many twist, turns, ups, and downs, and things going sideways. If you love surprises and like laughing and crying along with the characters Rose, Fox, and Kane. Make You is the second book in the Boys of Trinity Hall Duet. It answers all of your questions that arose from either this book or in Take You (1st book). This book was hot and so much fireworks. Loved reading about all the explosion of all the secrets that came out. MV Ellis did a fantastic job keeping me engrossed in both Take You and Make you from the first page to the last. Both sad that the series ended but so glad this was the conclusion and there is no more guessing and wondering what will happen next. Absolutely recommend reading both books in the Boys of Trinity Hall Duet. You won’t regret reading the books. Just be prepared for a wild ride, feeling a whirlwind of your emotions, and getting so involved that you don’t want to put the book down. Enjoy reading The Boys of Trinity Hall Duet (no way can you just read one)!!

Easily, M.V. Ellis is one of my favorite authors. This book and its duet partner are seriously too good not to read. Twisty, suspenseful, heartfelt, angsty, hot, sweet – Make You has it all. Fox, oh dear Fox, Kane, and Rose will take you on a wild journey that will have you quickly flipping pages and even rereading certain chapters 😉 One-click, devour and be amazed!
Book two in this duet had me in tears. Like seriously, this book also needs to be labeled DON’T READ IN PUBLIC. It’s only safe in the confines of your home. Even then having to explain that I am crying for the characters in the book. Now let me just say that I have a LOVE/HATE relationship for Fox. So when we think that everything was coming to an end, we get slapped with more chaos. How is Rose handling everything? Can she trust both Fox and Kane? Can they have a relationship? There are revelations that are discovered, speechless moments and moments where I was like OMG what the heck is going on. I mean the level of mind scramble is freaking off the charts. If you read this book, get ready to be ripped apart and slowly put back together. I freaking love this series.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, but the whole storyline felt a little rushed to me. Rose is definitely a better person than I am, but I don’t think I would have forgive for the things done to her even if I felt guilty for things that happened in the past.
I do like how we got more of Fox’s deepest, darkest emotions in this book.
This book has amazing and steamy sex scenes!!

Wow… after the end of Take you I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this one.
This book was just as action packed as the first.
There are more secrets, more betrayals, more lies and a heap more sex!
I couldn’t quite get into this one as the first. The decisions made by Fox, Rose and Kane didn’t quite sit right.
Love does weird things and I guess makes it easier to forgive… Even something as big as this???
Was hoping the relationship would play out in a different way… but understand why things evolved the way it did.
Don’t get me wrong… this was an enjoyable read and definitely a page turner that sucks you in.
Take it for what it is… a different kind of redemption story.

I tell you, Kane, Fox and Rose will be the death of me. This is a deliciously dark and sexy duet and in it’s own way very beautiful. Make You picks up where Take You left off and this one will have you on edge just like it’s predecessor. This book kept me gripping the edge of my darn seat and screaming at these characters as loud as I could. I think Fox has lost his mind, Kane isn’t too far behind and Rose is just stuck in the midst of all the chaos. The twists and turns are still here and so are the surprises around every corner but again, in the end, you can’t help but love them. The Boys of Trinity Hall duet has been an excellent read and one you don’t want to miss.
“The kiss was tinged with regret, but not enough to stop either of us. We were bound by so much negativity, baggage, and hurt, but when we kissed I felt like we were washing that all off, and bathing in each other’s light.”
Take You left us in shock, hanging on by the skin of our teeth wanting answers. You’ll find them right here in Make Me. If you think you know how things are going to play out, I guarantee you are wrong. Ms Ellis had the perfect balance of steam and suspense. Although I guessed a few things, they were twisted and the author managed to keep me guessing until the very end.
Once we set the wheels in motion it’s not easy to pull the brakes on, if we have a change of heart. Bullets are not forgiving and nor are friends, but sometimes our emotions make us do the unexpected. Fox and Kane have a special bond, they are besties, bro’s, know each other intimately. Destroying that would be soul crushing, but how often does a girl come between two guys?
Wow! A super hot and steamy book! Though to be honest, I still cant’ completely wrap my head around Fox and what he did. All I can say is that love does seem to trump everything and that people do have the ability to forgive even the biggest sins. This book was just as action packed as the first, and was really a page turner. All in all, it was a very enjoyable read!
