Book Review: On the Brink of Bliss by A.L. Jackson

I cannot begin to say enough good things about this series. From start to finish, it's been epic, and it went out phenomenally with On the Brink of Bliss. I have wanted Cash's story since first meeting him, and it exceeded my expectations. You won't want to miss this one!

synopsis_thumb2_thumb
A sizzling single mom, fake marriage, heroine in danger romance from New York Times & USA Today Bestselling author, A.L. Jackson

The last thing I expected when I found the trespasser bathing in my river was for it to be her…

Daisy Adair has always been my dream girl. From when we were best friends in high school to finding her now.
A gorgeous mother who shows up on my property with three kids in tow.

But I became a recluse for a reason.

The life I chose is full of wickedness and peril. The last thing I need is the object of my every fantasy invading my space and risking her life because of me.

Only when she tells me she’s on the run from her ex, I promise to do anything to keep them safe, even marry her to protect her kids.

That single kiss at the altar rips through every barrier, our passion unleashed.
Now, living under the same roof blurs the lines I’ve drawn.
Each glance of her down the hall and I am splintering.
Each brush of her hand and I am brought to my knees.
Our future—bright, hopeful, and almost within reach—hovers on the edge of becoming real…

Until we discover the threat surrounding her is grimmer than either of us imagined.

Now I’m fighting to save her and her children before our second chance at forever is burned to the ground…

5 out of 5 stars

On the Brink of Bliss was phenomenal! It was a fantastic story with so much depth and emotion, I felt pulled in from the start. The intensity and grit throughout had me in a chokehold as Cash and Daisy came together. I loved the drama and tension, healing and growth, and the found family and love. And Cash with Daisy's kids? Beyond precious! I have loved every book in this series, but I think this one might be my favorite. A must-read!

I loved both Cash and Daisy. I adored Daisy and how fiercely she loved her children and what she would do to protect them. She’s timid in the beginning, but I love how she grows over the course of the story. Cash was so grumpy and closed off, but I could see the cracks in his armor when it came to Daisy. There’s a marriage of convenience happening, and I thought it was well done. I enjoyed the tension and angst between them as feelings grew and Cash tried to hold himself back. When his walls started to come down, it was exceptional. Their chemistry was off the charts, and when it exploded, it was a combination of passionate and dirty sexy. There was a past and present storytelling happening, and I was filled with anticipation for timelines to collide. There was so much emotion and pain happening when all was revealed, it was beyond intense. I loved watching these two find each other again. From the longing and love from their teens to their adulthood, it was everything.

Daisy’s children made me melt. Not only was Cash falling in love with Daisy, but he was falling in love with them, and every scene with them, as well as their nicknames for him were adorable. I also loved the found family Cash has and seeing everyone from the other books again. I also liked how they were there for Daisy and the kids and brought them into the fold.

There was an element of danger involved that I thought was exciting. I was on the edge of my seat as details were learned and connections were made. The build was incredible! I swear I held my breath towards the end because the intensity was off the charts. I also love what was happening with Silas and am excited for the Crimson Crows series with his crew.

I have loved every book in this series and am sorry to say goodbye, but it went out in the best way. If you’ve not read the other books in the Moonlit Ridge series, I highly recommend them as well. On the Brink of Bliss was unputdownable and is not to be missed!

Complimentary copy received.
