I was so lost at the beginning of the book, I had to actually go back and read the previous 2 books. This book is a part of a trilogy, and I would highly recommend reading books 1 and 2 (Covet and Cove) before you start Claim. Colin made me laugh several times during this book, he seemed to always have his head in the gutter. Ian would do anything to make Tessa happy, even if that meant taking advice from his dirty minded brother. The chemistry between Ian and Tessa was smoldering hot. Can I just say it's a good thing Ian can keep up with Tessa when she turns into a sexual temptress?!

The final book of the Splendor trilogy!! NOTE - This is not a standalone book. You need to read the entire trilogy to fully enjoy Ian & Tessa's story.

I had not read any of Janet Nissenson's work prior to her Splendor series. I was completely taken with her writing! The depth of her work was simply breathtaking. The journey that Ian & Tessa went on to get their HEA was fun to read.

I will say that this was not a series that went fast. Each book is LONG! And that is ok for some. For me, I found that I needed to set it aside and then go back to it. But in the end, the HEA was so worth it.

I am looking forward to reading more of Janet Nissenson's work. This was a great introduction. Thank you Netgalley for introducing me to her work! Janet, you have a fan for life.

This is the conclusion of Tess and Ian's story and it was very sweet. However, just like Crave there is no conflict that they need to overcome; it felt like a very long epilogue. The scenes between Ian and Tessa as always are very sweet and very steamy, but once again they spent the whole book saying how much they love each other. Again the writing was spectacular, but I need more obstacles to give the story more action.
