ARC received for review

This one picks up shortly after the first one ends. Evan is still a grade-A jerk. Isla is working towards achieving her late father's goals when all she wants is her own. Never saw him as the bad guy stalking her. Love conquers all in the end. Loved seeing Evie and Dylan again.

Now as to the last brother...how did he wind up there, and how is he going to clear his name

Evan is scarred when someone sets a bomb off in his building. It kills several people including Isla’s father. After he wakes up from his coma, he breaks up with Isla because he thinks he’ll be a burden to her. Isla doesn’t want to follow in her father’s footsteps but is determined to finish the deals he made before dying. When she’s mugged, Evan knows he has to protect her but after hurting her, she doesn’t want his help. After she’s poisoned, Evan doesn’t leave her side and the more time they are together, the easier it’s for Evan to see what a jerk he was. So when Isla is kidnapped, Evan will do everything in his power to get her back. Can Isla forgive him and move on? Excellent story with suspense and romance. I love this series and can’t wait to read the next book. This story is like calgon it’ll take you away. * Voluntarily read and reviewed this for NetGalley *

4.5 Completely Addictive Stars
I devoured this book in one sitting. After having read and loved book 1 in the Endgame Trilogy I knew I had to have book 2 ASAP, and in keeping with my impatient nature, I am now desperate for book 3. I’m loving the Bishop siblings so much. Evan Bishop suffered a great tragedy in his life, and thus pushed away the one person he truly loved, Isla McDonald, breaking her heart in the process. Two months down the line and he still can’t forgive himself, or bring himself to even speak with Isla, until he finds out that Isla is in danger. He pulls out all the stops to protect her, but will she forgive him for the dreadful way he treated her? Can they be just friends, and is that what they both want? Wonderful writing, a great story full of action and suspense with a little sexy time in the mix. I was pulled into the story from the first chapter, fully invested in both main characters, and loving the push and pull they had going between them. This book can be read as a stand-alone, but as is always the case, it’s even better if you read the series from the beginning. I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is my honest review.

When I read about Evan and Isla in Bishop's Knight I literally cried. You could feel the pain Isla was feeling when Evan cut her off without a word. I'm glad we jumped right into their story next because I wanted to see them fixed so badly.

I'm not usually a fan of pushing away but this author does such a great job of showing how much the pusher loves the other that I can always seem to forgive them for the hurt. Evan is no different. Despite pushing Isla away because of his scars, he was so devoted to her. You never doubted his love and thankfully, you never see him with another woman.

On top of such a strong love that you get with these two, there is also the suspense that left me guessing all the way to he end. I guessed the wrong man to be the evil foe and that makes me love this more. I like when things are not predictable.

Great story, loved this couple and I can not wait for Ellis's book next!

What can I say about this author and her books. Well nothing bad that’s for sure! Evan Bishop was on top of the world. He owned his business and was set to marry the woman of his dreams. Then a bomb explodes. Kills that woman’s father and does him serous injury! Isla is the woman that he refuses to see in the hospital. She has to pick up her life and move on. When a threat to Isla comes to Evans attention, he begins to reevaluate his decisions. Can he save the woman of his dreams?


I read this book as an arc from NetGalley. It gets 5+ stars and I will probably read it again! It’s that good!

I loved this book! The suspense built throughout the story. Isla's whole world was turned upside down with a bombing. Someone is now after her and the list keeps growing longer and longer. I just knew who the "bad guy" was. But I was wrong. It was a shocker to reach the conclusion.

Isla is the one to not trust Evan enough to start a relationship again. She's right to be guarded, but she still trust him enough to keep her safe. I like that she made him work for it.
Just when I think that I figured out who is causing the problems, something would make me doubt it. I really enjoyed, Bishop's Queen.

Bishop’s Queen 👑

Evan is injured in a bombing and when he comes out of his coma, he pushes Isla away. Fast forward two months and he’s finally getting himself sorted, especially when he hears about a mugging which involved Isla. Now he will do anything and everything possible to protect her❣️

Isla is finally at the point of accepting that it’s over between her and Evan. She’s finishing up the deals her father was making before he was killed in the bombing but now it appears as though Evan is making a reappearance and with all the other things going on in her life, she’s not sure she can trust him with her heart or that she wants to give him a second chance😢

This story was amazing and I literally devoured it in a few hours because I had to know what was happening and if Evan could win favour with his woman, Isla, again💕 I’m just a romantic at heart😁

A big thank you to the publisher, Katie and Netgalley for my advanced copy which I leave my honest review and eagerly anticipate the next one❣️

Y'all if you haven't already started this trilogy about the Bishop family you need to immediately. Each book could be read as a stand alone but I really recommend reading book one first. Let's just say I wish they're were more family members to write about!

I really liked this book and Isla is someone I would want to know. She and Evan have been through alot and she is still in love with him despite him being a real dick to her. That being said he was in a bombing and is carrying around some heavy scars and some serious guilt as the bombing killed Isla's father.

He has refused to see her but a little jealousy and her being in danger makes him swallow his pride and pull his head of his posterior and show up for her as she has shown up for him. He is determined to protect her and keep other men away at the same time. Will he be able to? Will he be able to convince her that he's sorry and will never do that again? We'll see. You'll have to read the book!

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is the second book in the Endgame series and I did not read the first book so I was a little lost at first. Isla MacDonald was engaged to Evan Bishop but after the accident that scared him for life he pushes her away. Isla is attacked and that’s all it takes for Evan to realize he will always love and protect her. Ms Reus is superb at intrigue and suspense. After the initial confusion the action kept my attention and kept me guessing until the end.The love story was full of aghast and super hot. Now I need to go back and read the first book. I’m glad we don’t have to wait long for the last book to come out.
