And there are a lot of them! Some I had picked, others I hadn\u2019t, and I enjoyed the surprises. Mostly, I loved that everything was finally explained \u2013 Iris\u2019 secrecy, her absences, the never-ending danger that she seemed to be in and just how their hot hook up came about in the first place. The twist is \u2013 how will Dair handle it when all is revealed?<\/p>\n<p>This is a great conclusion to Dair and Iris\u2019 all-consuming, passion-filled romance. There\u2019s a bit of angst as everything is resolved, and with the \u2018other\u2019 part of Iris\u2019 life finally being explored, they don\u2019t have as much time together as they did in the previous books, but it\u2019s still very steamy, and almost obsessive, when they are together.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>She was mine.<br \/>\nInconceivable.<br \/>\nUndeniably.<br \/>\nMine.<br \/>\nIt was that devastating and that simple.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The good news is, the issues regarding Dair and Iris\u2019 relationship are all finally dealt with \u2013 if somewhat unconventionally \u2013 and even though her methods were questionable, I must applaud Iris for calling Dair out.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cDon\u2019t be a passive partner. This relationship is not something that\u2019s happening to <i>to<\/i> you. We are the drivers here. You\u2019re pretending that you just can\u2019t resist me, so you\u2019re letting it happen. I need more from you.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I\u2019ve really enjoyed this little series. It\u2019s an intriguing and super-sexy story, told completely from the male POV, and even though the writing seemed a bit simplistic at times, and not at all like RK Lilley\u2019s other work, I got caught up in it, and was happy with how it all ended (loved the epilogue!).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>\u201cI want you \u2026 I\u2019ll fight for you, for this. This is mine. You\u2019re mine.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>3.5 stars.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>The Wild Side serial novellas<\/strong><\/h4>\n<div data-post-id=\"17413\" class=\"insert-page
