Hard Ever After: A Hard Ink Novella Kindle Edition

Oh, the feels! I can’t even begin to describe all the lovely feels I got from reading Hard Ever After! First, the Hard Ink series is one of my favorite romantic suspense series. Reading each story in this series just pulls you into a wild ride with the team each and every single time. I loved the first book, Hard As It Gets! Hard As It Gets was the book when we were first introduced to Nick’s friends, and they would form a team and pursue a mission that would span the entire series. More importantly, I also adored Hard As It Gets because it was Nick and Becca’s story. All throughout the series we saw snippets of their love for one another grow. Reading Hard Ever After was such a special treat for me!Laura Kaye maintains the steam and romance in this particular novella. The opening is just…wow! You’ll need to fan yourself right then and there. Both Nick and Becca start thinking about what they want in the future. Nick, especially, really wants more with Becca, so the wheels start turning in his handsome head, and it all begins there. This is a true wedding novella. Ms. Kaye takes you through all the beautiful moments and makes it so very special for this particular couple. Then there is threat and nail-biting suspense, and this wouldn’t be a Hard Ink novella without any of that going on throughout the plot. Let’s just say that the team works well under pressure and everything is done the Hard Ink way! Yeah! It was awesome seeing everyone work together again, and we get updates on all the characters, too!If you’re jumping into the series now with this novella, then Laura Kaye does a lovely job getting you up to speed with all that went down in the previous books. Personally, I loved reading this particular series in order. This series is fast paced with an intriguing series arc that will have you immediately grabbing for the next book. If you’re already a Hard Ink fan or a Nick and Becca fan, then this one is a no brainer…Hard Ever After is a must read! Thank you, Laura Kaye, for giving us very special moments and memories with all our favorite characters from this series!

Since the first book of the Hard Ink series was released I have been hooked. Each book has only improved and the characters have not only been memorable, but the couples of quickly become my favorite contemporary heroes. I think what I love the most about the series is how refreshing and thrilling the novels have turned out. Before Laura Kaye and her military men of Hard Ink I was not a fan of romantic suspense and now that has all changed.I am not going to hide the fact that Nick and Becca have been my top choice for favorites out of all the characters. When I learned that the author was allowing an open poll for readers to have a bonus, marriage book from the Hard Ink I instantly voted for both Nick and Becca. I was beyond excited when I learned the news that the couple had won and this is book has quickly became a second best-loved novella.Like the previous novels this book took off with a punch with the duo trying to focus on their wedding plans as well as moving forward with their future. The past however is determined not to allow the twosome to have their own HEA ending. The book had a powerful, outstanding romance that sizzled with steamy love scenes followed by intense action scenes.By far I was not disappointed by any means with this book. The novella has to be one of the most well written novellas that I have ever had the pleasure of reading. I would not only suggest reading this farewell novella from Hard Ink, but if you haven't already read the series it is a must!- reviews at The Bookish & The Romantic.[...] Read more

“So let’s raise a glass to the couple who brought us all together. May love, peace, and happiness be your constant companions. To Nick and Becca.”Hear, hear! To Nick and Becca indeed! When Laura Kaye announced this special wedding novella and allowed the fans to vote on which Hard Ink couple to feature, I was torn. I loved all of them and would love to see all of their weddings, but I think the fans chose correctly when they voted Nick and Becca to receive the honors. It sort of brings everything back full circle since they were the ones that started it all and brought together this amazing group of characters that became like family to me as I read the series last year. All of the love and feelings that this series brought out of me at that time came flooding back as soon as I started reading this. Laura Kaye was sure to include all of the things we loved about this series in this novella, giving it a wonderfully nostalgic feel. And true to form, this book featured plenty of scorching hot scenes and a suspenseful subplot that’ll keep you flipping pages!This group fought hard to get to this point and I couldn’t be happier for Nick and Becca and all of the other awesome updates we got on the rest of the gang. You’ll fall even more in love with these characters as they prove yet again what an amazing group of guys and gals they are and what an amazing family-by-choice that they’ve created for themselves. It warms my heart to think of where they are now versus where they started. The wedding itself was beautiful and if this truly is how we have to say goodbye to the Hard Ink crew then I couldn’t have asked for a better way to go (but for the record, I wouldn’t be mad if a few other novellas popped up in the future, hint, hint)! If you are a fan of this series, you do not want to miss this one! Thank you Laura Kaye for giving the fans this one last glimpse into the lives of some of our favorite characters!“When you walked through my door, you changed my whole life. You gave me purpose when I had none. You brought my family back together when I was so alone. You believed in me when no one else did, including myself. You fought for me and loved me and made me a better man.”

What a fabulous ending to the Hard Ink series! A small gift to all of us undying fans, the last loose end is tied up and we learn that HARD IS REALLY GOOD - all of the time.I don't want to spoil it for anyone, so all I will say is that it gets tough before it gets good, someone gets shot - because it wouldn't be a Hard Ink story without a bullet wound - and there is an obvious and not so obvious surprise for the team members.I will miss the Hard Ink family and suspect I will read their stories again, in the not so distant future.

Soo glad we got to catch up again with the Hard Ink guys and girls. It's like visiting a favourite relative. You get so invested in all of their stories and the mission once it's solved you feel kinda flat, so to go back into their world once again was awesome. Ms Kaye is a master at intrigue and this didn't disappoint. The luv amongst these characters is extremely well portrayed. The steamy luv scenes were hot.... I'm hoping we still get glimpses of them in the Ravens series.

Loved this book, great follow on from the rest of the series xxx
