Aah,what a sweet beautiful read, and the perfect end to the Vested Interest series. Sandy has been a major influencer in all the Bam boys’ lives, and it was truly wonderful to get her perspective on the boys and their company, and to see her get another shot at love following the death of her husband, which we did in fact witness firsthand in Reid’s book. Now three books further along Sandy gets her own story, and possibly her own happy ever after, you’ll have to read the book to find out. With a few ups and downs and the odd relapse, Sandy comes into her own, and we see why the boys love her so much. She’s such a strong, independent and loving character. I’m so glad the last story was hers, oh, and, as a woman in my fifties, it was so so nice to read a romance with more mature main characters. Just wonderful, and a perfect end to this series with all the gang together. I received an advanced copy of this book. This is my honest review.
The BAM boys have built a very successful empire with the help of one woman: Sandy. Sandy has been their office manager, friend, confidant, and mother-figure. She has been the driving force behind their business and their personal lives for a long time. Now that she has lost her beloved husband, the roles are reverse and she needs their support through this next stage in her life, especially when she meets someone who awakens her heart and makes her long for romantic love again.
This was such an emotional read for me. Not only is it a story of love, loss and love again, it is the last book in the Vested Interest series. Melanie Moreland proves once again that she is the Queen of epilogues with a tear-inducing, heartwarming ending that catches us up with all the BAM boys. Definitely a five star story!!
Wow just wow, an amazing story from Melanie. I will say that this story made me cry and laugh. Sandy has always been the rock for the BAM boys, but she is grieving. Jordan also works for the BAM company and has had his own share of grieving. When should the mourning period end? When should one start living, loving, and being happy again? There is no answer to this question but Melanie Sure found a way to break my heart and put it together in Sandy. I will miss this series but it was definitely a great ending.
I have waited patiently for Melanie Moreland to write Sandy’s story and it is a bittersweet read. Finally getting Sandy’s HEA is a wonderful and highly emotional story that was such a great read it should have more than 5 stars, pulling at our heartstrings and making me cry more than once. However, now it leaves me with the sense of loss to realize the series is over and the BAM boys are finished. It’s like saying goodbye to your favorite family that you will miss terribly – but at the same time the sense of family that the entire series has given us will last a lifetime. So congratulations Sandy on finding a second chance at love. Hopefully we will see the BAM boys once again years down the road when their kids take over. (Or maybe a holiday novella!!)
Oh my gosh! I absolutely loved, loved, loved this book!! Sandy’s story is amazing! This series has been one of my absolute favorites! For the guys at BAM, Sandy is the glue that holds their little family together. She is fierce, tough and tells it like it is, but she loves these men and their families like no other. Through good times and bad, heartache and pain, through their completely bonehead decisions in their relationships, Sandy has mothered them all. But Sandy has faced tragedy and loneliness in the midst of her own life. Her guys see her loneliness and they just want her to be happy. But when their wives start to meddle, and meddle they do, what ensues is quite hilarious and honestly brings the men of BAM to their knees. But little do they know that the key to Sandy’s happiness is right around the corner! This book is so, so emotional and very moving!! It’s about life and loss and the ability to move on when it seems impossible. I laughed, I cried, but wow did I smile, ALOT!! It’s about family -true family – the kind of family that always has your back, the kind that protects you and loves you fiercely! That is the family that Melanie has created at BAM!! If you haven’t started this series, please do! You will 100% find it amazing!!!
When I picked up the book Bentley, I had no idea what I was in for. I knew I liked the name and I liked the cover.
I had never read anything by Melanie at that point.
I was floored. I fell in love with the book and my love for the BAM world was born.
Nothing, though, could have prepared me for the end of this series. Blah blah you’ll need tissues to wipe your tears. Whatever. I’ll need nothing. Yeah, I needed the whole damn box!
Sandy is the glue that holds them together. It was high time for her story. What a story it is. The journey we take with Sandy through these pages is one many of us can say we have never had to do. The loss of a spouse, dating again.
I can’t say more than that, but the epilogue-perfection!
This BAM world, I never want it to end. I want to have more and more stories but then it would get stale and it would no longer be the series it was meant to be. Hey we already got two bonus stories (BAM the beginning and Halton).
Melanie is an amazing writer. This series is fabulous and it’s one I would recommend to anyone.
I shed tears of happiness with the final book in the Vested Interest series. Sandy has been the common denominator in each book. I was ecstatic to find out that Melanie Moreland was closing the series with her book. This story is beautiful and heartfelt. The author delivered an epic conclusion with appearances from each of the Vested Interest boys and their significant others. This is truly a read that will have you all up in your feels. Sandy’s love story is one I will not forget. The love they give and receive is felt throughout the book, my heart was bursting with how full it felt. It was the perfect ending to an amazing series.
