It is here! I’m putting my review first before the release blitz, because that’s how I’m rolling today. Day of Reckoning was amazing. Everything came together in this story in such a way that had you reading so fast your kindle will catch fire. This story has everything, drama, suspense, heart-break, love, and romance. You can read it as a standalone and not be lost, but I HIGHLY recommend you grab the whole series.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We meet up with the Devil’s Due MC as they are making their way through each town to bring justice to those wrongly accused. Nobody has been more wrongly accused than Rowdy. Jackson Presley has had the gavel come down on him and retribution needed. We found out about his past throughout the story. I really liked how this flowed as we read. You didn’t get it all from his POV, but learned about him from Michele’s POV as well. He had a lot to overcome with retribution, forgiveness and the future. I don’t know that I can put into words how grounded Rowdy was. Chelsea wrote this pillar of strength in him that rivaled Collector IMO. He is a calm on a stormy day. I was in awe of this character. The pull you felt as you read with his connection to Michele was unlike any other. You knew he would go to Hell and back just for her.
Michele came across as very naïve with her narrow view of all the events. You could see the young girl and how impressionable she was. While there was a strength in her, she could be easily broken. Her personality written for this story fit, but she was not my favorite female of this MC series. I think the biggest lesson learned is we all make mistakes and they can either destroy us, or make us stronger. Michele turned hers around and made herself stronger in the long run.
Overall this was a great addition to the series. I was on the edge of my seat with the drama that unfolded. It played out like a beautiful symphony bringing together the family that made sure the devil got his due. Chelsea really wove together this plot and made it explode with tension, love, understanding, suspense, and so many more adjectives.
I really enjoy that we saw how all the brother’s and their ladies play out as the story evolves. You can read this as a standalone and not be lost at all with the past. In addition Trapper is KILLING me! I don’t know where Chelsea plans to take him, but I have a feeling it is going to be the pièce de résistance to this whole series.
