Oh damn! This is a better conclusion then I imagined!! I am so so amazed at this whole series! Maggie Cole sucked me in from book 1 and kept me hooked right till the very end!!
Roots of Vengeance is book 6 in the series and was perfection, from the alpha men, Siren women and even the intricate betrayals and inner workings of the Twisted Hearts.
Conner, being the baby, was obviously going to be carefree and selfish but when got challenged, we learned he’s been holding himself back for his family and the women that’s held his heart for years!
Gia kicked butt and took names after being a victim to the Twisted Hearts when she was young, and turned out to truly be the perfect women for Conner
Maggie Cole has outdone herself with the Together We Stand Series. She saved the best for last! Throughout the series, Connor was looked at as the young kid who was just hitching a ride on the coat tails of his family. It seems that they didn’t find him trustworthy, but he gave up everything for his family. He fell in love with the wrong people, and the one person he gave himself completely betrayed him. How he continued on without self destructing is a question that may never be answered. He would give anything and everything to protect those that he loves, and he extends the same to the love of his life Gia. The chemistry and passion is explosive! He knows exactly what she needs, but she’s on a mission to destroy those who hurt her and her family. Can Connor pull her back and ground her in reality before she destroys them both? This series is a must read! The Brooks family are family goals! Together We Stand, Alone We Fall.

This book left me at a loss for words, that’s how good it was. Conner is the youngest sibling in the Brooks family. Throughout the other books you see him as a guy who is fun loving, laid back, and just wants to have a good time. As the stories progress you see a more serious and selfless side of him. We get all of that and more in Roots of Vengeance. Conner is devoted to his family and the sacrifices he makes without regret or resentment are astounding. Gia is strong and has to overcome obstacles that have happened to her that I am not sure I would. The two of them together are like Fireworks! I love vanilla, but neapolitan is my favorite! I cried often, laughed, and raged while reading this book in one sitting! I could not put it down. I love that Maggie Cole saved the best for last in this series!! She also gave us an amazing epilogue that gives us closure on the entire family. Thank you Maggie Cole for another amazing book that I will cherish.

Roots of Vengeance is the sixth and currently the last book of the Together We Stand series. This book revolves around Connor Brooks, the youngest in the Brooks family. While we’ve gotten to see Connor in the previous books, you get to really know Conner now. Not at all what you were thinking he was going to be, but a wonderful sexy surprise! Gia is the newest to come into the picture and we get to see her and Connor grow together and their characters flourish.
Throughout the entire series the Brooks have been at war with the Twisted Hearts gang and we finally get to see them get taken down and a celebration to the entire Brooks family. This was a great story/series and I’m sad to see it come to and end. If you’re wanting a Hallmark movie series this is definitely not it as this has a lot more heat, passion, crime, and punishment of two variations. But overall an A+++++ series!!!
I’m looking forward to Maggie Cole’s next series Behind Closed Doors coming in January 2021!!
The final installment of The Brook Family Saga. Now we all know The Brooks Family have been targeted by The Twisted Hearts. All of the puzzle has come together in the climactic finale. Connor has come into his own, and will go to hell and back for the woman he loves. Maggie Cole ended the saga in a surprise twist.
What an amazing ending to a great series! Connor Brooks is the youngest of the Brooks clan and he is every bit alpha as the rest of the Brooks men! This book has hot romance and all the suspense you expect from Maggie Cole. This climactic ending to the Together We Stand series will have you staying up late just to finish.

So good , I read it in a single sitting. It was great to see Connor develop fully as a character over the course of this book. In the others he often seemed more incidental as well as immature. That is remedied here. The story wraps the series up well. Although I would enjoy any future updates to this family Maggie Cole would offer.

2:06 AM I closed the last chapter of a family saga that I have loved from the start. My plan was to drag this one out… to savor every last bit… but as with the rest of the series I was pulled in deep and determined to know what happened next.
From the beginning, I just knew Connor was going to be special, and I was not wrong nor disappointed. In some ways, he was everything I expected, more even. Yet, he was still full of surprises.
Gia’s story is poignant and tragic. She’s a complex character, and while I felt for her and understood her reasoning, there were times I wanted to throttle her! However, she is the perfect match for Connor.
The heat between the two is absolutely explosive. This story had me laughing, screaming, crying… and craving ice cream- it’s anything but vanilla.

Maggie Cole saves the best for last. The Brooks family has a way of sucking you in and always leaving you wanting more and Connor and Gia’s story may be the best. I could not imagine a more perfect ending to such an amazing series! It deserves more than 5 stars!
Roots of Vengeance is the final installment in the Together We Stand series and I’m stuck between being in awe over this fantastic book and being devastated that the series is over. In this amazing book, we meet Connor, the youngest Brooks brother who lets everyone around him believe he’s just living to have a good time. But Connor has many layers, including one he keeps locked away. The one that involves a fierce protectiveness and a heart-wrenching untrustworthiness toward Gia, the only woman he’s ever truly loved. After a whirlwind love, Connor turns away from her. Because Gia has a secret. She works for the government and has made it her life’s mission to take down the Twisted Hearts gang. Be prepared for one of the best endings to a mind-blowing series. Have the tissues ready, because you’re going to need them for each tear of sorrow and happiness.
Roots of Vengeance is the sixth and final book in the Together We Stand Series by Maggie Cole. I have enjoyed this series and this latest installment did not disappoint. Maggie Cole has a way of weaving a story that draws me in as a reader.
I was interested in finding out how Connor evolves as a character. He is no longer that immature party boy. We see him grow into the man he is supposed to become. Gia is a complex character whose main goal is to take down The Twisted Hearts Gang. Connor and His overcome alot during their relationship, but their love is evident.
This book is riveting and I couldn’t put it down. The story is well-paced with action, suspense, vengeance, love, family, and loyalty. The characters are well-developed. As with Maggie’s other books, the secondary characters are important to the story. What an amazing end to a phenomenal series. Kudos to Maggie Cole!

The final installment of Together We Stand answers the questions we’ve all been pondering…
Like are all the Brooks Brothers amazing alphas who make us pant?
Maggie has intertwined all the parts of the story that kept us on our toes, giving us the conclusion and final story beautifully written and sprinkled with VERY steamy scenes.
Connor maybe the baby brother but he will not simply stand by when someone he loves is being endangered.
Roots of Vengeance wraps up the Together We Stand series with a bang! Just because Connor Brooks’ story is last, doesn’t mean that it is any less pulse-racing than that of his older siblings. We finally get an inside view of Connor’s mind… and his bedroom! What a view it is! Any lingering questions you might have are resolved as the Brooks family finally breaks free from the Twisted Hearts gang. The family dynamic that Maggie Cole created is a thing of beauty that I will want to relive again and again!
Connor Brooks’ book is the 6th book in the Together we Stand Series. Connor is the baby of the family and while from the outside looking in, it looks like Connor just wants to hang out at home and work as an easy going bartender and not work for his brother’s construction company…..remember that looks can be deceiving. Connor is very protective of his sisters and puts his family before himself and his opportunities. Connor cannot seem to catch a break when it comes to a serious relationship…Connor meets Gia and really falls hard for her, but she has a secret and he discovers it…..it breaks them both! He tries to forget her and she tries to move on with her job, but they really can’t forget each other…..As fate would have it, their paths cross again and this time Connor realizes he cannot let her go. However, Gia will not give herself fully to him till she finishes what she started…..will they make to the end or will the Twisted Hearts ruin them both for good this time?
Going in we thought we knew Connor —the baby of the family, immature, self-centered, and only looking for a good time.
Get ready to be surprised.
We meet Gia, learning she and her family have also been victims of Twisted Hearts.
The depths she feels she must reach to met out justice are heartbreaking.
You will hold your breath discovering how high a level Twisted Hearts will reach in order to earn money and control people (the whole world if they have their way).
Roots of Vengeance gives us the Perfect wrap up as we see Twisted Hearts receive their (absolutely) due punishment and destruction. Plus we are able to bear witness to the wonderful Brook’s family celebration of freedom from fear and family itself.
You will want to tap your heart three times as you celebrate how Standing Together defeated evil.
