I tried, but I struggled so much to stay invested in this book. I enjoyed the other two books much more than this one.

What an explosive and dynamic conclusion to a riveting series. Tijan brings her A game with this final book. Everything that you think you know you don’t and it leaves you reeling in the best way possible. I always know going into a Tijan book that I’m going to be hypnotized and utterly useless to those around me until I’m done. Her words never fail to consume you body and soul and this book is no different.

After the cliffhanger of the last book, I’ve been dying to find out what’s going to happen next. Tijan ripped your heart out leaving you a pile of unfiltered emotions with nothing you can do about it except wait for book 3. Bailey and Kash’s journey has not be easy to say the least, the angst and heartbreak they endure will tear you piece by piece. I didn’t know how I was going to recover after book 2 but Tijan does what she does best and mends you back together.

I don’t want to say a lot because I don’t want to spoil this for anybody. But, Tijan has outdone herself with this series. The twists and turns. The angst and heartbreak. The suspense and edge of your seat journey. The epic love between Bailey and Kash. Are woven flawlessly together to create something unmatched. I fell in love with this series from the moment I started it and that feeling did not wane one bit on this journey. If anything, my love for this series only grew with time. Tijan has always been a one-click author for me, and this right here cements the reasons why. You don’t want to miss out on this series, it’s utterly addictive and thoroughly enjoyable.

This was an enthralling and engaging conclusion to an epic story! I was hooked from the start and kept riveted and on the edge of my seat throughout. The twists! The turns! I've always been a Tijan fan and this series just made me more of one. It was thrilling and well written with things coming from every direction to create a suspenseful and creative story!

Wow. I have to honestly say I did not see most of the content in this book coming. I thought I knew but I had no idea.
With any book I read I love when it keeps me guessing. Love when I think I know what’s going to happen and then find out I’m way off base. A great book keeps you guessing, entertained, and quite honestly consumes you. And that’s exactly what The Revenge did for me. I did not wanna put this book down when I was reading.
Without giving away spoilers I have to mention there was a part of this book that hit close to home and Baileys emotions and what she was going thru was brilliantly captured and written by Tijan.
This book is more action packed and thrilling giving you a wild ride from start to finish. I LOVED every word written and the emotions captured and just everything about it. I prob say this all the time but this is Tijans best work to date. Side note I really mean it with every new release. Lol.
Tijan turned it up with this book.

Book 3 of 3.

OMG! I can’t tell you how I’ve waited for the final chapter of this series! Not surprisingly (lol), The Revenge picks right up where The Damaged left off. And once again I was hooked from the beginning. I couldn't wait to see how Kash and Bailey's relationship unfolds, confirm who the mystery man was, and what would happen to Kash's grandfather.

Kash and Bailey's relationship is as strong as ever. Bailey is dealing with the grief of losing her mother and Kash is trying to track down his grandfather. During all of this Bailey develops a deeper relationship with Matt and her family. We also learn who Chase, from book 1, is.

Tijan had me on the edge of my seat with the twists and turns and the mind games. This was a fabulous end to an outstanding series!

Wow! What a satisfying and explosive ending to this 3 book series! I got the ARC from the publisher and NetGalley in return fior an honest review. But as I began to read I realized I had to read (consume?) the first two in the series first. And boy am I thankful I did. This whole series is enthralling and addictive and I can’t imagine a better wrap up than The Revenge. So many twists and turns and love and action. Did I say Wow?

They say Revenge is a dish best served cold. For once, I'd agree. Cold and calculated gets the job done. And for what it's worth, Bailey and Kash have a big job ahead of them. After the epic end to The Damaged, it's hard to rally or even think of rallying. How does one recover from such a horrific event!?!

Revenge.

Revenge is a motivator. It calls to you in the night. Nightmares plague your mind. Revenge can be the balm to soothe the beast.

Tijan has given us quite a beast to soothe. Bailey and Kash have a lot to deal with before they get their happily ever after. But when they do....priceless. Calhoun has no idea what how motivated these guys are. (Smirks)

This third book was worth the wait! The twists and turns in this series has kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. This last book answers so many questions we kept asking ourselves throughout the series, truths are revealed and the surprises you didn't see coming thrown at you. Bailey and her family has been thrown alot with all the secrets and hidden truths. But they all come out stronger and better off once all is revealed. Loved Team Batt- those two together were like true sibling and didn't miss a beat from not growing up together. That was a great relationship. Kash gets the things he deserves in life after the horrible past he had to endure.
Tijan once again knocked another series out of the park! Can't wait for what comes out next.

Honest review in exchange for ARC

I always enjoy books from Tijan and after the unexpected craziness that was the end of The Damaged, I was ready to jump right back into Bailey and Kash's story. The Revenge was like both The Insiders and The Damaged in that it felt chaotic and captivating.

I enjoyed The Revenge. It was a good conclusion to a fun trilogy. All of the drama and the answers Bailey and Kash finally got were great.

The Revenge is the epic conclusion to Tijan's 'The Insiders Trilogy. It was non-stop turns and twists until the very end! One of my favorite series I have read!

In the third and final book of this series, Bailey and Kash find themselves broken and up against the odds with all the enemies coming at them. Bailey is dealing with the loss of her mother and Kash is trying to find the right time to get rid of his biggest enemy, his grandfather Calhoun.

I love this series so much because of the relationship, chemistry, and connection between Bailey and Kash. They have such a unique and passionate bond. When Bailey is hurting, Kash is too and he will do whatever he can to take the pain away. Bailey is stuck again in a place where she has to find her way back. Watching her mother die right in front of her eyes definitely made this situation different and tougher to overcome. And every time that Bailey is struggling you know Kash is there. And you see the genuine love he has for her which just makes me melt. And if you know Tijan, you are guaranteed to get some sexy and spicy scenes.

I have to say, this book really had so many twists and turns. I caught myself gasping more than once because I was shocked at what had come. It felt like I was in a thriller movie while I was reading. There are so many moments that come down to the wire and you really don't know if it will end in a good or bad way. I can't wait for readers, especially fans of the series, to get their hands on this book!

I give The Revenge 5 stars. Once you start reading it, it will be impossible to put it down until you finish it. This book really has it all; romance, suspense, mystery, and drama. Tijan is an author you can count on to provide you a read that is engaging and unputdownable.

Gah! This book. Super intense, so many twists. A lot that I didn’t see coming. I def had some issues. There were times where both of them are making decisions that had me screaming at my phone. Victoria, pfft don’t even get me started with that. But all in all this is exactly the type of H that I adore. He spent his whole life with this one goal and then he, multiple times, pulls back from achieving it in order to make sure that she is safe, loved, and has everything she needs first. That kind of devotion is exactly what I want in my romances.

Tijan wrote a really good conclusion for all the many plot points and I liked how everything came together but I wish we had some more moments of the two of them just being together. The two of them thrived together in all these intense moments but they really shined in those mellow more relaxed scenes and due to the intensity of this book those scenes were few and far between. The ones we did get are so swoony but I wanted more!

Overall: 4.5

Finally the conclusion to Kash and Bailey so get ready and buckle up.... Even though it was mad chaos at times, yes there were moments I was WHAT is happening right now. I was too invested in it all . The twists just keep coming. You are so wrapped up down the rabbit hole with these characters. I needed answers. I was choosing sides. I was exploring all these emotions that makes for a great story. So much happens... I MEAN YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED and I hate spoilers. Great conclusion to a trilogy. I was given this to review by NetGalley for an honest review.

I started off this series thinking that it was pretty good. Then I read the next book and I thought - well actually this is really good. Now I’m at book three and this series just keeps getting better. The Revenge was a great read packed full of surprise, action, romance, and family drama. Mixed all together to create a book that kept me on my toes and my focus on trying to figure out what will happen next.

As with all Tijan books, there is just another level to the imagination that I can never foresee happening. There were things in this book I never world have expected and yet it didn’t go too far out off the ledge to total impossibility.

I really enjoyed the stability (ish) of Bailey and Kash’s relationship in this book. Start of the series they were on polar ends and as it progressed they became more like true partners. Of course we can’t have a novel without a little bit of relationship drama but it wasn’t to the effect of taking away from the main mission of the book.

All in all, if you are looking for a break from the normal romance tropes - this is the series to pickup next.

This was such a fun continuation of this series. It picked up right where we left off in book 2. The book was heavy in emotion given what our main character has gone through. She is in a place of emotional rage and it takes a while to see her back to being “herself” but stronger. I loved the character development seen throughout the 3 books. Who doesn’t love a story filled with a bunch of plot twists, action, swoon-worthy romance, and some family drama? I loved the relationship between Kash and Bailey and was glad we got to see more of Kashs’ viewpoint in this one! I felt like the ending was a bit rushed, almost like there was such a big build up between the 3 books.. It left me longing for more a bit. Overall, definitely an entertaining page turner until the very end.

I have absolutely loved this series from Tina. It is one I always recommend to people and love that it can be found in barnes and noble so it is easily accessible if someone wants it right away

I picked this book because I enjoy the stories that Tijan writes and this was a good conclusion to this trilogy. I definitely don’t recommend reading this as a stand-alone, that was my first mistake upon nabbing this ARC. It can be really confusing without back story.
However, this one had awesome characters and a fantastic story line once I understood what was going on! So definitely pick up the predecessors first.
Once I picked this up, I couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait for the next book.

Thank you NetGalley for the e-ARC.

I have been waiting on the conclusion to Bailey and Kash's journey and it did not disappoint. Every book in the series just kept getting better and better. I highly recommend. Can't be read as a stand alone. I recommend for maximum enjoyment you read the entire trilogy. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC.

Another well-written story by Tijan and this is why she’s one of my favorite authors, Revenge is a great conclusion to The Insiders trilogy. When you read one of her stories it grabs you from the start and you can’t stop reading. Great characters and an edge of your seat story had me flying through this novel. I can’t wait to read her next book I’m sure it’s going to be great!!!
