Taking it All by Maya Banks

I just finished the last of the surrender trilogy, Taking it All (The Surrender Trilogy) by Maya Banks.  It was a perfect end to a great series.  Not only did it focus on Chessy and Tate, who you got to know briefly in the first two books, but it also continued with the lives of the other couples.  And I must say it wrapped up all three couples stories nicely.

Of course it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows the entire book.  What fun would that be?  No, it was a rollercoaster ride with a lot of "WTF???" in between. J  But you will have to read the story to find out.  No spoilers here!

Chessy and Tate have been married for five years and Chessy is Tate’s world.  He cherished her and vowed to give her everything she wanted and needed.   That is except for his full attention.  After his business partner bailed, he was left with the sole responsibility to make his business a success.  That meant being at the beck and call of his clients at all hours of the day.  Chessy, knowing, how important it was to Tate to be able to provide for them, she let it slide until his distraction put her in a dangerous situation.  After losing her because he failed in his role as her husband and dominant, he was prepared for the fight of his life to win her back.

Of course this is a Maya Banks novel, so you know there are some steamy and "too hot to discuss on my blog" parts.  However, there was so much more in the story than just what happens at night.  (Ok, we all know in these books “it” doesn’t just happen at night.  Usually it’s all hours of the day and sometimes all day ;)) ).   Even though Tate messed up, he made up for it with his devotion and love for Chessy.   He is exactly what I love in a book boyfriend, gorgeous, rich, alpha male and madly in love with his girl.   Tate made me swoon.

If you haven't read the first two books in the Surrender trilogy I suggest you read them in order first for the full experience! :)  I included links to all three books below.
