Poor Erin and poor Mack. Shane sucks for all the grief he gave Mack about wanting to be with Erin. Especially with him being with Beth. But everything worked out in the end. I hate that something bad had to happen for Mack to realize it wasn’t just a crush and that his feelings wouldn’t change either. But that’s the way of the world. Loved how everyone rallied around Erin and that she realized she was apart of the family. I want to know more about this Dominic character. I wish the bad guy got more of what his karma deserved but I guess it is better than nothing.
I absolutely loved this book couldn’t put it down. Had me hooked from start to finish
I stumbled on this story and WOW. Guess I’ll be going backwards and reading 1-10. There were a couple of gaffes in the writing and timeline but I overlooked in favor of the emotional part of the story and how Mack’s literally loved Erin thru her trauma.
This was my first book by this author and it was pretty stellar! I love a good age gap read, especially where its the H who fights the need and want to be with the h. There are triggers within this book, as the synopsis states but if you are good with that it is a good read. I would most certainly read books by this author again.
Erin is the sweetest person and has been one of my favorites for a long time. She’s been hopelessly in love with Mack almost since she laid eyes on him, but with their big age difference Mack won’t let himself return her feelings even though he does care for her. When she finally decides to step out of her shell, she is the victim of a tragic event. We follow their journey as they work to forgive themselves and Erin builds her strength and courage back up.
Mack is swoon worthy. He is so sweet and is everything Erin needs. Protective, a romantic, and a little rough around the edges, he pushes Erin to take safe chances while being there to support her. I loved them and their story and can’t wait for more.
This book was eagerly anticipated by April’s readers. Mack and Erin, we wanted this story so much. Now it’s finally arrived and April did not disappoint. Honestly I’m in awe of it all, heart-breaking and beautiful all rolled into one. A terribly horrific abuse subject handled so well, I felt the emotions of all parties involved. The pain and anguish of Erin to the deep sense of regret and anger of Mack. The support from all the McIntyre family was wonderful throughout. The Journey for both Erin and Mack is difficult, this truly destroyed them in different ways mentally and physically, can their friendship/relationship survive this horrendous experience. This book does start with quite a traumatic incident so be warned.
Love Hard, Without Boundaries
I have patiently waited for Mack and Erin’s story since we first met them. I never imagined the author would take us to the place that she did.
The story was heart wrenching. It was also a story of resilience and strength. Erin was strong, even though she felt weak. She was a fighter, even though she thought she just let it happen. Erin had a future and deserved a happily ever after even though she thought that dream was gone.
Mack was protective and stubborn and amazing. He thought he was just too old for Erin even though he was completely smitten. When the most horrible thing happens…Mack steps up. Realizing, that being right by Erin’s side is where he always should have been.
This series is a favorite and with each new book we take another journey with these characters. I have enjoyed every book and I always look forward to more.
Life often takes unexpected turns. Nothing is guaranteed. Love hard and without boundaries.
Loved everything about this book! I’ve wanted Mack and Erin story and it didn’t dissapoint! This book had so many emotions pulling you in and not letting go! Another great read!!
I love the powerful way April brings her characters to life. We, her fans, have waited for Mack to accept Erin’s love. And we got exactly what we asked for and more! Beautifully written and an emotional tribute to courage in the face of hopelessness.
Loved the story of Mack and Erin. April’s McIntyre series is one of the best series i have read.
Another great installment in the McIntyre series. After much waiting reading Erin and Mack’s story was both shocking and a tearjerker. Great to finally have two loved characters face tragedy and come out knowing what they want and fighting for it. Another great read.
