Publisher Description

In the secret world of the Phoenix club, inhibitions are left behind, fantasies become reality, and lust can lead to love in this intoxicating romance from USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy.

Nessa Hale is a hopeless romantic. Growing up, she witnessed her grandparents and parents' epic love stories. But Nessa hasn't been as lucky. Instead, she spends her free time swiping right on online dating apps and enduring hellish first dates trying to find the one. But when one of those dates ends tragically, Nessa is left emotionally shattered.

Ronan Crawford understands what it's like to feel broken. As a retired Navy SEAL, he still suffers from the after-effects of war. Forming new friendships and working security at Phoenix, the secret sex club in the heart of New York City, has given him a purpose. He likes protecting people again. So when Nessa asks him to teach her self-defence techniques, he's concerned, but up for the challenge. He can tell Nessa is suffering and he's prepared to be her safe haven. What he's unprepared for is how Nessa makes him feel like he's coming back to life.

The more time they spend together, the more Ronan and Nessa help each other heal. As their friendship blossoms into something more, Ronan introduces Nessa to a world of no inhibitions and wicked desires. But when Nessa's recovery is threatened and her life is endangered, Ronan vows to protect her at all costs. He knows he'll have one chance to make Nessa safe again, but only Nessa can bring Ronan back from the darkness threatening to bury him….

Need to go back and read the previous books!

Need to go back and read the previous books! While this can be read as a standalone, I definitely felt like the book started rather abruptly and I felt like I was missing backstory on these characters, but it still was an enjoyable read. Nessa and Ronan have danced around each other for a while, as they run in the same group of friends, and while they are both attracted to each other, neither have made a move, until one-night changes everything when Nessa is attacked after a date with another man. Overwhelmed with feelings to protect and take care of her, Ronan takes on that role with Nessa while trying to find out who was behind her attack, and as they start to spend time together, they give into their chemistry and feelings that have built over time. Included in that, we also see Ronan let Nessa into his secret of the club, and she finds it's something she enjoys, much like her friends. This was a quick read for me, and I want to go back and read the other books in the series and get caught up with these characters.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

So Much To Love

This is book five in the excellent Phoenix series. All the book can be read as a standalone book. Take Me is Nessa and Ronan’s love story. When Nessa deals with a trauma, Ronan steps up to be her friend, protector and comforter. As with all the books in the Phoenix series this book is filled with steamy hot chemistry. There is so much to love about this book!
