Need You Now by M. O'Keefe
This was dark, but not near as dark as the previous books; it was practically tame compared to book 1. Rosa is out of prison and avoiding Marco. She is working at a diner when Bates shows up. He wants to pay his debt to her but instead she ends up getting fired. Carissa shows up at her apartment and offers her money, which she turns down. Rosa gets a job as a waitress at a strip club. Bates shows up at Marcos' apartment and gives him the address. He shows up and it is not a happy reunion ;there is a lot of hurt on both sides. But he keeps showing up and they start to rekindle things. He even introduces her to Ariella. Then, her brother (a literal skinhead, neo-nazi) shows up and starts to make a scene. Marco is there and beats him up in the parking lot and Rosa runs because that's what she does. She calls Simon and tells him she needs to get in contact with Bates. She shows up at Marcos', tells him her plan, and together they go to Bates. She tells him she wants her brother and father taken care of as the debt he owes her. They both end up in prison and she and Marco get their happily ever after. This is supposed to be the last book in the series, but it feels unfinished. We don't get any closure for or about Carissa. I didn't love this series, but I wanted another book to make it feel complete.
