Synopsis (Goodreads):

She’s the heart of O’Kane liquor.

For years, Nessa has been focused on work. She keeps the whiskey—and the money—flowing, and life is sweet. Sure, she’s tired of being everyone’s baby sister, and she longs for a man who can stand up to her overprotective O’Kane brothers. But she never thought she’d meet him in the middle of a war.

He’s the brains of the revolution.

War is all Ryder knows. He was raised with one goal: to ensure the sectors’ successful rebellion against Eden. His father and his mentor both died for freedom, and nothing will stop him from securing their legacies with victory. He doesn’t have time for distractions—especially beautiful, impulsive ones like Nessa.

Opposites don’t just attract, they combust. Together, Nessa and Ryder have a chance for something more than the lives they’ve always known. But this is war—deadly, bloody war—and the only way to happily-ever-after is straight through Eden.

Thoughts on Beyond Surrender: Saying goodbye to a beloved series is HARD. Especially when there's a chance some of the characters you've come to know and love might not make it through the final battle. But, MAN, was it worth it. Because those O'Kanes are fighting for the survival of every last one of them in the sectors PLUS all the innocents inside Eden and they deserve to finally find some peace.

*gets all mushy on everyone*

On top of the heartache and bloodshed that comes with war, there's also the signature O'Kane sexy times. And a heaping dose of emotion. Because O'Kanes don't do things by halves and if you're going to love someone, you might as well go all-in with the threat of annihilation at your door.

Seriously, the O'Kanes fight hard and love harder. It's a thing.

So. Nessa and Ryder. Two very different people with two very different skill sets. Nessa is the heart of the O'Kane liquor empire and Ryder's been trained to bring Eden to its knees. Watching them work through the kinks in their relationship (once they admitted they're in a relationship and not just engaging in a torrid affair) while dealing with the very real possibility that they might not survive the coming battles...well, it was everything I was looking for in this final book.

Yes, there's heartache. There's loss. There's a whole lot of love and brotherhood going on in the O'Kane stronghold. This is what these men and women have been readying themselves for since the beginning and it is GLORIOUS to behold.
