Review: Conquered

Conquered by Riley Edwards
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An emotional read from start to finish

The 6th book in the Triple Canopy series packs an emotional wallop.

Dylan and Sawyer's story gave me a book hangover like no other. The two MCs have loads and loads of emotional baggage to work through before their HEA.

The book takes us on a journey with raw emotion, heaps of sweetness, off the charts hotness, and the comfort found in your chosen family. The action-adventure took more of a backseat in this book, but Dylan still scores very high on the protective hero chart, especially as he is protective of Sawyer's emotional well being (rather than physical well being) in this book.

Dylan has held himself apart from his colleagues and friends for a long time, sharing very little personal history and refraining from connecting emotionally. The crush between Sawyer and Dylan comes to a head but with disastrous consequences...copious amounts of alcohol, memory loss and saying the wrong thing has Dylan grovelling for redemption.

I loved the humour and chemistry of our couple, but it is the family pulling them in that is the greatest.
Read the book and you will understand how precious this quote is: "I will fight you for her." Matrons for the win...mamma bears in action.

Read my review of Tarnished, book 4 in this series here , for another glimpse into the Triple Canopy world.
