Loving the hell out of this series, each installement gets better and better. Can't wait to see who the stalker is. Audrey's books are so addicting and never disappoint. You should definitely pick up the IG books, highly recommended

A great continuation of the series. I loved the focus on the ladies this time around (Wendy and Skyler) and how the team really felt like a team even when on location.

Once again I enjoyed the international guy inc stories. I enjoy reading about the characters especially Wendy she is a spitfire. This series makes you feel like you are on each new location/adventure Audrey Carlan takes them. I can’t wait for volume 4.

Really enjoyed the twists and turns that this series seems to turn up.
I love the way each city has it's distinctive challenges. No two places or women are the same. The real consistency is the three guys and their problem solving skills.
Still cheering on Parker and Sky to make it to an eventual HEA.
As usual, the secondary characters really add to the overall storylines.
Bring on volume four!

I love the International Guy series & this book didn't disappoint me at all. I love the alpha male characters & the women that are with them. I couldn't wait to see what happened after the last book. Each guy is unique & brings something to the table. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review. This is Volume 3 of the series and covers stories 7-9. It is full of fun, love, friendship, family and interesting characters! This volume has so much going on as we pick up right where Volume Two left off. I Ioved watching Skyler and Parker's relationship develop as they build trust in their relationship and fall deeper in love. Lots going on in the three books, and the author keeps you interested along with some hot scenes between the main couples. But there are more sinister things in play as Skyler and Parker are both receiving creepy, stalker-type texts from a unknown person throughout this whole book. An enjoyable read and am looking forward to the final volume.

International Guy Volume 3
Audrey Carlan

London
International Guy #7
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This may be my favourite story in this series so far. Finally Skylar and Parker are back in track, I was quietly concerned that they might have hit the proverbial wall, but alas their love is as strong as ever, and Wendy is out of the woods, and International Guy is needed yet again, this time to romance author Geneva James.

With 2 super successful books in her trilogy, Geneva James has hit writers block like nothing else, so her editor requests not only Parker but Skylar to assist with her writing. Heading to London will be the perfect working getaway for Sky and Parker. So with Rachael and Nate VanDyken (hot sexy bodyguards) in tow, Parker will work his magic as always, but this time it is Skylar who takes the biggest role. As muse for Ms James’ stories, it only takes time before her writers block is lifted. This may also have to do with another international Guy man…

Along with this new story, that king of took possession of my heart, reoccurring characters come back into the story… London means Sophie. I adore her character and her confusion over American twang. Wendy with her take no prisoners attitude, including fiancé Micheal and of course Parker, Bo and Royce. I can wait for the next story in the series.


Berlin
International Guy #8
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So many feels, this story has it all. The same sexy International Guy, men, Skylar, the very loveable Wendy, but it was the addition of Parker’s brother who took a major part of the story.

While Wendy continues to heal, and the love affair between Parker and Skylar is back on track, the whole IG team head to Berlin- to OhM Motors, an up and coming car brand for every person. It is International Guy who heads up the advertising m but needed some extra help, Parker uses his new found friendship with Michael Prichard, for extra support. That that comes a history, so torrid it has big to go Mick on his knees hoping Wendy doesn’t lose it big time. Never underestimate Wendy, the woman might be total badass, but she is a beautiful woman inside and out.

On a total side story, Parker’s missing brother shows back up, in Berlin with some huge news. It has been so many months since Parker saw Paul, and he’s going to use every second he can. In an emotional reunion, Parker will a whole new side to his brother…

Add in Bo and Royce and this story will pull every string. The team really is an amazing group, together they will take on everything, for the greater good.







Washington DC
International Guy #9
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

While most of the International Guy stories have somewhat fun element to them, I think this one had the most real feeling. It was raw, confronting, downright sad in places, but with plenty of heat and love to kind of balance it all out.

This was to me the busiest of all the IG stories so far, with international Guy moving hard and fast, new assistant and finally having Wendy back with the team it’s like a big happy family. But with a new attorney bought in, that complicates everything, as she has a history and a certain International Guy man is not going to be happy. I can’t wait to find out more about Kendra Banks…

As Parker and Kendra head off to Washington DC to work with a pharmaceutical company with a new bill to be passed through government, not everything as it seems, and both Parker and Kendra are on High alert. Knowing Pure Beauty Pharmaceuticals is not legit, there digging with the awesome Wendy, shows a awful, cruel world hidden beneath. Knowing International Guy does not delve into sort of filth, Parker and Kendra set to destroy not only that bill, but the company held responsible for everything they learn and see. This book is not for the feint hearted. Many times I had to put it down and take a breather before I could continue.

While Parker is out taking on The world, his lover Skylar sets her sights on Boston permanently, as their relationship gets stronger, so does their unwelcome stalker/ crazy fan… it’s not the end, not even close. Can’t wait for the next instalment.

London
Parker and Skylar get to go on their own adventure to London to help a favorite author! Love the evolution of their relationship/friendship and excited to see where it picks back up in the final volume.

Berlin
Love this series! Berlin brings another adventure with the gang and some new characters including Parker’s brother and Mick’s ex. Can’t get enough!

Washington DC
Great installment! Lots of moving parts in this story including someone returning from the IG men’s past, Wendy’s return, a scandal and sleuthing by IG in DC and more messages from Parker and Sky’s stalker. Volume 4 can’t come soon enough!

I can't get ENOUGH of IG. These stories are amazing. Skyler and Parker are my favorite couple. I'm in love the developing stories on the characters. Wendy's broke my heart. That crazy lady stole a precious thing but the Beauty of her and Mick's relationship is amazing. I'm loving this new woman that has Royce on his toes. Kendra is going to be another favorite. Benny seems way to shady I think he's the stalker. I can't wait until the next installment.

Fun, sexy read with some intensity for added humph!
I had missed the second book in the series but I had no trouble getting into this installment.
In fact I enjoyed this installment more that the first one, and I have to say the series just got better!
The writing was spot on and her characters were well developed. More importantly, I found this story to had some edge and some grit that made me get into the storyline and all the sexy goodness they were.
I cannot wait for more!

At the beginning of London, there still are some things up in the air from the previous story. Parker and Skyler are still trying to work through their issues and the fate of a loved one is still hangs in the balance. But luckily things take a turn for the better on both situations and all is well...for now.

Berlin brings someone from the past back into the International Guy world and things get a tad complicated. Parker has to call in help from a outside source and that's when it gets really interesting.

Finally, in Washington, DC, we get to go inside the world of politics and it is quite eye opening. And upsetting. But also in this we get the addition of a International Guy employee that causes quite the stir. It meant that we finally get to know a little more about Royce and I can't wait to see how everything plays out!

Every time I read one of these stories, I fall more in love with the characters. Parker and Skylar continue to work on their relationship and even manage to work together in their professional life. Each city brings a new client and we get to know everyone a little better. I love how diverse each client is and it is clear that the author does her research. Some of the topics are quite complicated and detailed, but easy to understand. I can't wait for volume 4, but I'm also sad knowing that this will be the end of the road for the International Guy crew.

This series is incredibly addicting! Even though the last volume ended in a little cliffy, I was able to pick up the newest edition and continue on like there was no time in between. There's something for everyone in each story; each serial is filled with romance, hot passion, family and friendship.

Join Parker, Skyler, and the IG family as they take on new challenges in London, Berlin, and Washington. I love that each adventure keeps the underlying themes of the stories consistent; love and family first, and staying true to yourself. These books are winners every single time!

I am so in love with Parker and Skyler after reading International Guy: Volume Three. Parker and Skyler are finally able to work on their relationship; living in the same city, having dinner and conversations with friends and family and spend lots of sexy time canoodling on couch. As they work towards the future that they both want, someone looks to threaten their happiness. The threat begins with Parker receiving a mysterious note and continues when he and Skyler both begin to get text messages from an unknown sender. Will they find out who threatens to throw off the course of their future before it is to late? This is another must read, page turner by Audrey Carlan.

I love EVERY aspect of this series.  We jump in after all the chaos and events in Montreal, headed to a famous Author in London.  She's got a bit of writers block and is trying to land a movie deal! Parker and Skyler are still working on their relationship and Wendy is on the mend.  We also see a bit of our ladies man Bo laying it on thick. 

We then pop over to Berlin. Strange emails begin arriving, and my anxiety skyrocketed.  The team is asked to help with a car campaign.  I don't want to spoil much, but if you're following along, you know something smells fishy.  We also see more of Wendy's husband. 

Last stop on this tour is back in the states in our nations capital.  No surprise the boys get involved in politics on there stop in DC.  This is my favorite installment to date, and now I am dyeing to jump into  Madrid, Rio & LA.  I am positive this will be an EPIC finale!!

I just love this series. I love the fact that they are all their own individual stories but then they are one. This is a must read

Was this review helpful?

Fresh off the danger the team encountered in Montreal, we catch up with the IG team as they regroup and recover. Things aren't hunky dorie between Skyler and Parker as they hash out the details of a misunderstanding, something that threatens their future together, and discover a new source of danger. We spend time with the team in Boston and New York before jetting off to the next job in London, this time Skyler is asked to join Parker in his effort to help an author suffering from writers block.

Maybe it's the familiarity of the subject, but the time in London with Geneva is definitely my favorite in this installment. It's fun to see what inspires Geneva, how she's pulled out of her funk and how her book characters, Dean and Simone, begin talking to her again. She finds more inspiration in Skyler, who becomes her vision of Simone.

Wrapping up in London, the teams next assignment in Berlin finds Wendy and Michael facing his past. But not before this, Parker and Skyler take a short vacation to France as Parkers friend Sophie is facing her very own personal cross-roads in her love life. The drama is relatively low but Sophie knows just what to say to get to Parker, and naively throws their past relationship at Skyler. But I love that Skyler has her chance to demystify the friendship between Parker and Sophie.

Finally, the team are ask to work in a lobbyist capacity to help a pharmaceutical company with an agenda to push some legislation through the system. The topics addressed are heavy and as I've always experienced in reading Audrey's books, she tactfully handles serious subject matter, while enlightening the reader.

But the best thing about the story is the undercurrent creepy messages that both Parker and Skyler receive, making it apparent there’s a stalker a little to close to the two of them. I think I have an idea who it is so it will be fun to see if my suspicions are right. 3 more books and 1 more volume to see how things shake out.

This series is absolutely amazing & gets me further hooked on it with each Volume released!!

International Guy: London
This series just keeps getting better and better!!!

After things cool down from the events in Montreal it's business as usual. This time Parker gets to mix business with pleasure as Sky is going to be a big help with the next client: World renowned author Geneva James. Geneva was on top of the literary world, movie options in the works she just needed to complete the third book in the trilogy but writers block is making sure it's not getting done. When IG lands on her dorrstep with Sky in tow she is thrilled that she gets to work with her muse for her character Simone. Once her creative juices get flowing there's no stopping her.

Parker and Sky have reunited and have to work on some trust issues especially after the debacle with Johan. Once past that they begin to move forward but is someone out to get them. We get the hint that maybe all the crazies were not dealt with in Montreal and that just maybe there's a new threat on the horizon.

We also get more on Wendy and her recovery and let me tell you be prepared to be gutted. That's all I'll say on that front but just wow that was some emotional stuff going on there.

International Guy: Berlin
The guys are off to Berlin to help OhM Motors market a line of hybrid cars and hopefully take the world by storm with their brand of advertising. This is one tough case and big money is at stake so the guys call in reinforcements. They use their connections with Mick and have him and Wendy join them. In this one we learn some very interesting things ab0ut Mick's past and how far he is willing to go to make his girl happy. We also get to meet Parker's brother Paul who has a surprise/secret he wants to share with him before heading back state side to tell te rest of the family. This added to the Mick/Wendy aspect really addded such dimension and intrigue to the already titillatiing tale of the IG guys.

International Guy: Washington DC
I must say that this was my favorite instalment in the IG series thus far!!!

The guys finally hire in house counsel in the form of Kendra Banks who is also Roy's ex. There are some very angry faces on the team. Parker is hoping with time they may be able to get past it and work peacefully.

Parker and Kendra head off to Washington to help Pure Beauty Pharmaceutical company get two more votes to pass a bill. Sometimes things are not as kosher as they seem and soon IG realizes regardless of their reputation if there is a fallout they cannot in good conscience go through with what is being asked of them.

Sky and Parker have moved forward full throttle with their relationship but both are still dealing with the anonymous text messages and Nate is not getting any head way so it's time to call in the big guns: Wendy. You get a feeling who this person may be but is that just a ruse to hid the true perpetrators identity.

This was at times so hard to read due to the subject matter but it really brings to the forefront that these types of things are really happening but by the end it's all well again.

Cannot wait for the 4th and final volume to get all our questions answered!!!
