Cross-Checked (Boston Rebels Book 3)

I love this series and thought this one was a great 3rd addition. It dealt with a couple of heavier topics, but I feel like it was handled well and balanced well with the actual love story. The hate that Ronan and AJ had for each other in the beginning was a great build-up before they had that "corner turning" moment. In the end, you find out that AJ did everything to protect Ronan and prevent the situation they were in from getting worse, and Ronan didn't know the full story and just knew that her actions kept him from missing the death of his grandmother. I really loved their love, and even though she pushed back a little, AJ fell just as hard as Ronan did. I loved AJ's instant connection with Ronan's daughter. And I loved that AJ's grumpy cat instantly loved Ronan. 😆 They created a sweet little family, and in the end, despite her rocky past, AJ was able to get the family she so badly wanted.
