Her brothers call her a princess, but he tells her she’s a queen. His queen. She’s the girl with three brothers. The scholarly one. The one with big dreams and a dark secret. He’s her brother’s best friend. And the rich playboy who broke her heart. Finn O’Connor taught Colleen Murphy what it felt like to be in love—and to have her heart broken and bruised. When Finn appears at a family event a decade later, it all rushes back, and Colleen must fight to resist the pull to the wealthy bad boy she’d been reading about in the tabloids all those years. Finn tells her he’s changed—but can Colleen trust him not to break her heart again? And will Finn unlock Colleen’s secret? The one that’s kept her from ever letting anyone too close, including him? Although she resists, Colleen is starting to wonder if Finn alone sees her for who she really is. And though her brothers called her princess, Finn keeps telling her she’s a queen. His queen. *Note to readers: This book contains scenes that​ may be triggering to survivors of childhood sexual abuse. The scenes are described as past events. Note: For Your Love is a standalone contemporary romance based on secondary characters from the Indigo Series. It is not necessary to read the Indigo Series first.

When I saw the sign up for an ARC of ‘For Your Love’ by Kate McBrien, I knew this was a book I wanted to read. I hadn’t read a book by this author before, but I just loved that cover and I’ve always loved the best friends little sister trope. So when I got the book I was super excited and started reading as soon as possible.

In ‘For Your Love’ we meet Colleen Murphy and Finn O’Connor. Colleen is Finn’s best friends little sister, and they grew up together. Ten years ago things changed between them, and Finn broke Colleen’s heart. Now ten years later they see each other again and there is an instant connection between the two of them. But Finn has a reputation of being a playboy and Colleen definitely isn’t going to be just one on his list.

‘For Your Love’ was a book I loved right from the start. The book starts the day Finn broke Colleen’s heart. And although I didn’t get how her heart got broken by that moment. I mean, it just didn’t feel that ‘big’ in my eyes. And definitely not big enough to still be mad about it ten years later. But it definitely made me want to keep on reading.

Fast forward ten years, and I loved getting to know the grown up Colleen and Finn. They had a lot of chemistry, and I loved the way Finn wanted to do everything in his power to make Colleen feel safe and be happy. He was definitely a swoon worthy character. Every woman should have a guy like that in her life. And they had some very sexy moments between them.

Throughout this book we read a bit about something that happened in the past about child abuse. It was a hard thing to read, but I loved the way it also send a message to everyone who has been through something like that.

Overall, ‘For Your Love’ was a book I couldn’t stop reading and I loved from the start. I enjoyed these characters and definitely plan to read more books by this author.
