This book sends you on a Rollercoaster of a ride! In the first of the Cole Brothers book Wesley and Annabelle's story is full of passion, heartache, and angst. It captures you and holds on till the very end! There are definitely some twists I wasn't quite expecting but gave the story more life and energy! In the second book you get Zack and Rebecca's story which was absolutely amazing! The instant attraction is palpable and engulfing. Their story has a lot more angst and the tension in this book was off the charts! I loved their story and the hulls and battles they had to fight to be able to be together! I would absolutely recommend these books

What a good duet this was. Those Cole twins are some mighty fine men. They are the good guys that have that dominance about them that makes you love them. They definitely know how to treat a woman right and will go to bat for their woman. I loved, loved, loved reading these books about Wesley and Zack. There is so much going on that it will keep you on your toes while also having you stay up well past your bedtime to know what happens.

❤︎"I like this." "Like what? Bossing me around?" "No." She laughed pulling my hair at the nape of my neck. "Kissing you anytime I want." -Anabelle and Wesley
A book about a Former Marine and A Doctor, Twins who are 6'5" and jam packed with action and romance? Count me in! This book had the perfect mixture of both romance and action. The first book of the duet Unleash you we meet Anabelle and Wesley and get the childhood crush love letters and with Defy you, Zach and the sexy Rebecca bring all the angst, spice and a marriage of connivence. Perfect combo.
❤︎"How about a friendly game of war?" She jerked to her feet and fished her purse off the mattress. When she returned she had three decks of cards. She dropped the boxes and started shuffling. "You know how to play?" -Rebecca

This duet was very well written!
I love how even though they're twins they each fully got their own fleshed out stories and personalities that made them so vastly different.
It wasn't fully what I expected going in (the blurb was spot on! I just had a different picture in my mind because I was stuck in a dark romance mindset) but I still enjoyed it for what it was.
I think romantic suspense & contemporary romance reader lovers are going to absolutely live for the Cole twins!

3.5/5⭐️
2/5🌶️
These two books kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I’ll admit that it took me to the very end to realize it is in the same universe as Entangled you but this whole world keeps me guessing. I hope to see more from the Cole Brothers soon!

This is my first romance with military elements to it. I loved this book and the plot was action packed. The romance was forefront with great chemistry and flow. Definitely will pick up more of these.

Both books kept me on the edge of my seat, I had to know what was gonna happen next. These were the first books I’ve read by Diana and it certainly won’t be my last, I liked her writing style, the chemistry between the couples was palpable. And her world building was Great!

This duet was great. It was a combination of love stories for both Cole brothers. I loved how fast both brothers fell in love and were able to show how much they loved both female characters, by literally putting themselves in danger. You must read both books in order to understand the whole story.

Unleash You. I loved reading Annabelle and Wesley’s love story. I liked how the writer introduced the leading lady character, Annabelle as a strong woman character. Most readers as myself sometimes get tired of reading of women who do not know to defend themselves. I enjoyed the great entertainment from the book. Also the book had great action.Wesley and Annabelle work great as a team to track down her brother, even though Wesley battled with her all the way. The book does have enough reality to it to support the drama, action and the entertainment in the book. The writer did an awesome job with the story telling.
Defy You. Zack and Rebecca are two lonely souls who feel that they are trapped in their own misery. This story focuses more on the romance between these two people. The characters bring some witty personalities to the story. There are times in the book where the drama is serious, which I liked. I felt that those times helped with the fast pace of the book. The entertainment was and action also made the book a definite page turner. Zack and Rebecca are a cute romantic couple whose romance blossoms along in the book. I enjoyed reading the romance between the two.

I enjoyed reading this set of books about the Cole twins, Wesley and Zack. Each both told the love story of one of the twins and their women. The stories were very well written and kept my attention throughout the hole thing. It was passionate, exciting, and romantic and sweet at some points. It definitely had me biting my nails at some points waiting to read what happened. I really liked all the characters in the story and felt like the story was easy to read. This is the first book or books that I have read from this author but will definitely keep my eye out for more of her stories in the future. I received an advanced review copy of this story and am leaving a voluntary honest review.

This duet of books gives you two fun reads to enjoy. Each book focuses on its own couple and is filled with a combination of romance, suspense, powerful emotions, danger, excitement, drama, mystery and steam. Complex characters, great chemistry, fun banter, a hint of sweetness and solid writing our a rock solid base for the storyline to build off of. I thought that this was a very good way to spend some of your valuable reading time. This is my independent, impartial review.
