Book Review: Owen (Undercover Billionaire #3) by Melody Anne

Owen (Undercover Billionaire, #3)
Title: Owen (Undercover Billionaire #3)

Author: Melody Anne

Stars: 3 1/2 stars

Review:
Owen is a whole is a ok book the grammar, spelling, basic flow of the story are typical of a romance book. The story starts off with a quick background, than sex scene the drama that pulls the characters apart and than fast forward to the present. Everything fits will in your typical romance expect for the face this reader felt lost several times.  Readers are giving a time line but many times the author blurs that time line or maybe its the age of the characters either way readers might find themselves a little lost. Melody Anne has throwaway characters as well as Characters from other books in her series. (One of which I read.)
When Eden and Owen are not having sex or thinking about sex the story has lots of suspense, emotions that are a little fake at times but give readers are good idea of why certain characters act certain ways.
I gave the author an additional half because it is number 3 in a series things that ate mention in this book might have been taken care of in book's 1 and 2. Although it didn't feel that way.  I would say this author wanted to create a stand alone novel but fails to do so.

At the end of the book the author gives readers an idea of what happened in the authors personal life that influenced a change in the story line.  That helped this review understand why at times the story felt disjointed.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher Montlake Romance for the advance copy of Melody Anne's Owen.



Synopsis:
There was a time when Eden’s entire world revolved around Owen Forbes. They were inseparable childhood sweethearts. They planned a life together. Then, without so much as a goodbye, Owen vanished. Now, after ten years, he’s returned to town as the hottest new firefighter on the force. Whatever secrets pulled them apart, Eden can’t fight the sparks reignited by the man who broke her heart.
Owen knows he did Eden wrong. If only he could tell her why. As body meets body, he’s whispering for a second chance—wanting her back so bad it hurts. It can also be dangerous. An arsonist is targeting the small town of Edmonds, and Eden with it. And it’s Owen himself who’s become engulfed in suspicion.
Eden knows that with a past as hot and mysterious as Owen’s, their future together could go up in flames. Because the one man she’s afraid to trust is the only man she desires—and the only one who can save her.
