Review - Prepared by Cara Dee

Although delayed by the pandemic, Darius and Gray are finally getting their big day. As family and friends descend on the couple to help them celebrate their wedding, there may be times the pair wish they were back battling the human trafficking thugs. The boys will get through it. They always do.

This last book in the Auctioned series is a bit of an anti-climax, but it's not without a fair bit of drama. Weddings can be stressful, no matter how much in love the couple is. With Darius' brother and Gray's best friend in charge of the pre-event bachelor activities, it guarantees both men are going to be put through a wringer.

We've gotten to know both Darius and Gray very well over the course of the seven books. While some literary liberties have no doubt been taken, the journey of Darius and Gray, in particular, rings very true and relatable. You're rooting for both of them to work things out from the very first book.

This has been a long series for one focused on a single story arc. It is sustained by individual volumes that are action-packed and a strong “supporting cast” of many endearing characters.
