Too bad his heart has other ideas . . .

REVIEW

5 STARS
Cam's book finally came along and I am over the moon. The man needed some love seriously I have been team Cam since book one.There was just something about him that I could not resist. He is everything and more. Book 1 & 2 made him out to be a bad guy, but seriously you didn't know him and it honestly wasn't his fault he was such an asshole.
He had been thru hell and back and need to be set free and have some happiness.

Be Mine Forever was fabulous, I think Kennedy made Cam's story turn out perfect and you got to get to know the real him inside and out. Damn isn't he so fine I just wanted to give him some kisses in places the sun don't shine hahaha.

Than there is Jo she is so bubbly and delightful I adored her personality. I felt for the girls because she had been in love with the man for well forever!
I think she needed him more than she needed air.

The story takes some time to progress. The chemistry is smoking hot and I just about near cried when Cam finally let himself be truly happy.
Kennedy nailed it and her work in her third novel shows just hot talented she is! She is brilliant beyond her years. I can't wait for more!

At thirteen years old, Jo had fantasized about her first kiss. In her mind, it would be with Cam. She had practiced on her pillow and French-kissed her hand. She had positioned herself just so during Spin the Bottle, but Cam’s bottle had never landed on her. He’d never even hinted that he’d wanted to kiss her, that he fantasized about her, too. So all she’d had were daydreams. And in those daydreams, Cam nibbled at her lips. Slipped his tongue into her mouth, shy as she was. He was gentle and careful.

This was not that kiss.

This kiss was made of sweet smoke and embers. It sizzled on her lips and seared her senses until she could only feel and taste and touch and see him. The whole universe whittled down to this man completely possessing her with a kiss. Sucking her tongue into his mouth. Pulling her lips between his teeth for tantalizing bites.

Cam walked them backward with slow, measured steps until he eased onto the bench, never leaving space between their mouths. He pulled her bare legs to either side of his hips, pressing against her back until her breasts were crushed against his chest. He lowered his head, nudging the straps of her camisole aside with his lips and sucking on her naked shoulder. Jo moaned, tipping her head back until her hair rained between her shoulder blades. Cam pushed the camisole down around her waist and pulled her breast into his greedy mouth. With every pull of his lips and tongue, she rolled her hips against him, a steady, sensual syncopation that shoved Jo over the edge. She took shelter against his chest, gripping his neck, huffing hot air into the collar of his shirt. Her thighs tightened around his hips, and her body released in shivers and whimpers and shudders.

She stilled little by little, falling against him, limp and pliant. Cam pushed her hair behind her shoulders, raining kisses over her collarbones and nipples until they peaked and begged for his mouth again. He suckled at her, sliding his hands inside her shorts, squeezing her butt and urging her against him.

“Cam, I just—”

“I know.” He looked up, anointing her nipples with his words. “It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. I want it again and again and again.”
