The Blurb:

As the last unattached member of the Nolan family, Syn is ready to risk everything for a mission he’s been assigned to. He’s military born and bred. He loves two things – his country and his family. When it comes to love, he’s kept his distance. He’s watched his brother and his cousin settle down with families of their own and he’s more than content to play a role in their lives, but not give his heart away to any one woman.

Journey Valeur has had nothing but heartbreak. She fell for the wrong man, blindly following him, and it cost her dearly. She has no intent on ever giving her heart away again. Now, she’s hell-bent on revenge, but she has become the hunted, wanted for murder. She’s kept herself well-hidden, deep in the mountains of Utah, until one man is sent to find her.


Syn meets a beautiful woman on a train on the way to his mission. She lights a fire in him like he’s never felt before. They have a brief encounter, but he lets her go to stay focused on the mission at hand. Little does he know, their paths will cross again.

Syn has to decide whether or not to trust the story Journey is telling him. If he chooses to believe her, his mission becomes lethal for both of them. Syn will put everyone he loves at risk and his own life on the line for her. To save her, he will dodge bullets, cross borders, and defend her against a high-ranking military official. He’s taking on a deadly game that could easily be his demise.

Journey will have to make a choice to go it alone or trust a man again or be forced back into a life of terror.

My Review

4 Syn's Journey to love

Syn Nolan is the last of his family that is still single. Everyone else is settled down and marriage. I loved Syn in both Steel, and Gray's books and couldn't wait for him to get his HEA too. I really loved Syn and Journey's story but my favorite book is still Kell and Gray! Just sayin' Kell and Gray are hard to beat with their epic love. And can I just say I loved that I got plenty of Kell and Gray in this book. Along with tons of Steel and Ady too. I loved watching Syn fall hard for Journey. He was so sweet, sexy, and I loved that he didn't just jump into bed with her, but he waited until it meant something for both of them. Journey was awesome and kick-ass. I loved how much of a fighter she was. Brave, sassy, with a softer side that Syn slowly brings out of her she was a great heroine. 

Syn and Journey were hot as hell together. There was tons of sexual tension and a strong connection between the two. When they do come together fireworks. Syn was so sexy. I loved everything about this book but the bad guy. The villain was kinda cheesy. I kept picturing him rubbing his hands together and laughing menacingly. Other than that though I loved getting to catch up with all the past couples, seeing their families, seeing their love for each other was still going strong. I loved the epilogue. I felt it wrapped up everyone's HEA perfectly and gave me all kinds of warm fuzzies. A very exciting and sweet read. I'm sad to see the end.

My Review

5 You are my world Stars

OMG....... OMG I knew after I finshed reading Piece by Piece(book 3) back in August that I had to get my hands on Gray's story. I was so overwhelmed and excited for it that I just couldn't wait. So when Kelly Moore contacted me and asked if I wanted an ARC copy I jumped all over that like a dog with a bone. And the second I got it in said hands I didn't put it down til the end. You know you have found a great book when you literally start it the second you get your hands on it and you sit up all night long and forgo sleep to finish a story because you just can't bear to put it down. It was so good. Worth every sleepless minute. You know sleep is for the weak!

I am going to try to keep this review spoiler free which is really hard for me. This book is so good and suspenseful that I feel something would be ruined if readers knew what to expect. So let me just say that this book was everything I hoped for and more. Gray was an amazing heroine. My heart bled for her. I cried few times while reading this. There is such a sad and beautiful journey to Gray and Kell's love story that it broke my heart a few times then pieced it all back together again. Gray was so strong and brave and I just adored her. Kell was amazing as well. He was just so cocky, charming, sexy but sweet at the same time. I just couldn't help but fall madly in love with him. They truly made a beautiful couple.

Their road was not an easy one but it was worth the ride. The connection between these two characters felt so real. They felt so real that I was completely invested in them and rooted for them the whole book. I really enjoyed getting to catch up with Steel and Ady and seeing how they were doing. The action and the plot was so good in this book and they were executed perfectly. It kept me on the edge the whole time. I had to keep stopping myself from skipping ahead because I was dying to know what would happen. I was almost too anxious to wait the time it would take just to read it. I loved getting to know Syn more. I know his book is coming up next and I can't wait to see what his heroine is going to be like. I know I will enjoy the other books in this series but I also know this book is and will remain my favorite of the series. There was just something about Gray and Kell that really connected with me. They were so special! This book was amazing and I enjoyed every sleepless minute of it!

My Review

4 All your shades of blue stars

Wow what can I say.... I am so happy I requested this book. I have never read Kelly Moore before but I will be reading a lot more of her. Piece by Piece is the 3rd book in the Broken Pieces series and can easily be read as a standalone. I liked this book and all the characters in it so much, that I totally plan of going back and reading the first two books. I really liked Steel. He was broody, sexy, could be playful and charming. He could also sometimes be a jerk but a charming jerk. If you follow my reviews you know I have a thing for Military men ex or not. And I also have a thing for damaged, scarred, pained souls. So the fact that Steel was Air Force, lost a leg, and was hurting just made him like crack for me! What really surprised me though was that Ady stole the show for me. As much as I liked Steel Ady was just awesome. She was so strong, proud, brave, and sassy as hell. I loved that she wanted Steel and she went after him. She didn't let him feel sorry for himself. She got him to open up and let her in. I loved their relationship. They had some great chemistry. I enjoyed the flow of the story and I really liked the plot. Steel's brother Syn and Cousin Gray were both very charming in their own way. I can't wait for their books. I am dying to get my hand on Gray's book after this book gave us her back story. Please Kelly Moore don't make us wait long. I need to know what happens with Gray! 

Overall a great read. I am so glad I found this author. Below I leave my favorite quote from the book:

"Um Heidi, is that a stateroom that you put our luggage in?" I point in the direction of the door she used when she disappeared with our duffel bags. She looks at me confused. "Yes, it is, Miss Cage. If you are tired I could entertain Mr. Nolan while you rest." "No, I'm not one bit tired, I just wanted to know where I could go fuck Mr. Nolan's brains out in private." I pat the cushioned seat next to Steel. "Unless, of course, you would like to watch."- Ady and Heide
