Longing to experience the life her mother once led—the life of a carefree Parisian heiress—Avery Keller opts to give up everything she’s ever known—family, home, and a love affair with her dearest friend Pete.

Yet another phenomenon book as always. Bernadette Marie has captured us from the beginning of this series and and haven't weaver at all throughout these 10 books. Avery caught my attention with the exact striking beauty as her mom. Peter's love and affection for Avery is contagious. This series is one of my favorites to read and is sure I'll be rereading it in the near future. So if you haven't started to read these book the first book in this series The Executive Decision is free on Amazon so grab a copy and enjoy the world of the Keller's.

This series is one of the best I have ever read, to have 11 books and all of them are different with more excitement and different circumstances in each one. I fell in love with the family and felt as if I was part of them, thanks, I would recommend this series to anyone who likes a little drama and a lot of family and romance

I hate to see this family's story end. I absolutely loved this book...Pete's devotion and love to Avery, what can you say, they truly loved each other and were destined to be together. I really liked Jill....I wish there was going to be a follow-up with her. She needs to be swept off her feet. It's not my fav of the series but I think it touched me the most as a hopeless romantic.

3.0 out of 5 stars Would give the whole series 5 stars if not so steamy!
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2020

I really enjoyed the story lines, but I simply deplore the explicit and nearly explicit love scenes. I find them totally unnecessary to be included in such depth. I was once a happily married woman who birthed two children, but now I am an aging matron who simply does not enjoy such vivid imagery, when I consider it unnecessary. I still enjoy romance in novels, but need fewer graphic renditions.

I am so adamant about not liking explicit love scenes, that if two versions of a novel were offered - one with and one without explicit scenes, I would certainly purchase the non-explicit bundle. In fact, if Bernadette Marie were to re-issue this entire series with no explicit love scenes, I would purchase it as soon as it would be available.

Avery's story tore at my heart. She grew up surrounded by love, but felt something was missing. Conflicted with the love she feels for Pete and her need to explore the relatively unknown family in France.
Pete is steady and true in his love for Avery. Even with his heartbreak and family issues, he is Avery's savior.
Ms. Marie has wrapped up the Keller family stories phenomenally well. I will miss them all.
