Sela and Beck’s deliciously sinful tale of sex, lies, and vengeance reaches its explosive conclusion in the final chapter of Sawyer Bennett’s Sugar Bowl trilogy, which began with the novels Sugar Daddy and Sugar Rush. For years Sela Halstead dreamed of revenge, but the quest for payback has been anything but sweet. Now, once again, she finds herself at the mercy of Jonathon Townsend, his hands crushing the very breath from her body. And even though she escapes with her life, Sela fears she may never recover. In desperate need of shelter and comfort, she runs to the one man she can trust. Beckett North has stood by Sela since the beginning. But can he handle the brutal truth? Beck will do anything to protect what is his—and make no mistake, Sela belongs to him, heart and soul. The passion between them runs hot, even as their world begins to unravel. With the legacy of his ruthless business partner hanging in the balance, Beck stands to lose everything: his fortune, his family, his freedom. But each touch of Sela’s mouth on his skin, her nails down his back, makes it harder to let her go—and it might not even be his choice to make.

I really hate that this final book of the Sugar Bowl trilogy did not live up to the previous two books. Thankfully, the last few chapters were great, but the rest of the story was too grim for my taste.
There was a feeling of hopelessness throughout this story. It makes sense for what is happening in the book, but it just felt like one thing after another was going against Sela and Beck. I love that they believe in each other so thoroughly and try to protect each other so fiercely. Their chemistry is still wonderful and it’s what kept me reading.
Since this is a trilogy, you aren’t going to want to read the first two books without reading this one. It’s not a bad story but be prepared for some depressing situations. But as I said, the last few chapters turn things around. After all, this is a romance so we do get the HEA.
