3.25 Checkmate, love. Stars 
 In honor of Ms. Sasha Elle Mrs. Liam Callahan we decided to show our support in doing a group read of this book. 
 I've had this on my TBR list since forever and glad that I was finally able to read it with my fabulous Shh ladies. With that being said, here we go. 
 I liked the writing style of Ms. McAvoy. She brought out the best in her characters. She had the correct balance of crazy, sexy, bad ass, and straight out mafia killers. A giant mix of a good book. Though I did have some issues with the hero and heroine, ( and I kept playing in my mind Mr. & Mrs. Smith) I over came it because the story itself was enough to diminish the blemish of how strong Liam and Mel are. Those two are a powerhouse to be reckoned with. 
 But to follow through with continuing the series, I would have to say for myself I would take my time. The build up for their following story is a good one and looks intriguing, but it does seem unrealistic and it kind of lost me throughout my time reading it. The second string of characters, Caroline, Neal, Olivia, and Declan (I'm a sucker for that name) are all great back stories and would be interested in reading about them, but I personally wouldn't jump right in. 
 All in all it was a good read. And I hope to continue my J.J. McAvoy journey sometime in the near future.
