4 - 4 1/2 Stars. 
 Gonna try to stay as unspoilery as possible. 
 The first 70% of this book was a VERY solid 5 stars. The last 30% dampened that just a touch. 
 This was by far the hottest of the trilogy. The things Dean West can do... Lord. Have. Mercy. I fell even more in love with him than I already was, that's for sure. Liv's journey was about self discovery and learning to trust in the strength she's built and that was solid, if not a little drawn out. There were times I wish she had been a lot more aggressive with outside factors, but she did good in the end. 
 Dean & Liv get their HEA, but we knew they would. Part of the problem I had with the end of the book was it's predictability and frustration that it took so long for the issues to be resolved. I know the harassment issue was the central plot of this book, but it just felt mismanaged from the get go. Sometimes I felt Dean handled it too aggressively and sometimes he backed down when I would have fought harder. And the rush job wrapping it up at the end just made me feel pissy. 
 It's hard to say much without spoiling major plots, but the long and short is - I did love most of this book and although I was frustrated with certain aspects with how it wrapped up, I will still tell everyone I know to read this series and invest in Dean & Liv's story. It's a wonderful story of married soul mates finding their way and making it together as a team. Very few book series truly focus on married couples who are making it, falling more in love and whose lives are never boring. I love that. I love the AFTER. The living. 
 So many things are beautiful about this series and while I loved the end result, I just wish the path getting over the bumps in this book had been a bit smoother. 
 But Professor Dean West... YES. PLEASE.
