The Proposition 3: Bryan Ferro (Ferro Family) Paperback – March 28, 2014

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. It is no surprise that I love H M Wards writing style after all I have purchased all her books and read them all. Yes I even purchase them if I get an ARC. That is how much I love her books.The Proposition 3 doesn't disappoint either. This is the best so far in the series. You get suspense action and yes plenty of hot Ferro ness on Bryan. We even get to see a little of Jon Ferro and Trystan. I mean can we ever get enough of them either. What I didn't expect at all was the way the story with Maggie turns. My heart bleeds for her but hey I'm not telling you have to read it for yourself.And yes I'm glad you asked there are aome pretty steamy scenes between Hallie and Bryan. But of course in true H M Ward style there is much more to that story as we'll.Don't worry you won't be disappointed you will be just like me sitting here wondering when will get more. Just waiting. Patiently. Yeah really I mean patiently waiting.

The Proposition is my favorite series yet from H.M. Ward – and she has some seriously good stuff. Bryan has also taken the spot as my favorite Ferro.When you are reading this review chances are the last book of this series has been released. That makes you a lucky bastard if you haven’t yet read this series because you can consume them all without having to endure the tortuous cliffhangers. Side note: I always enjoy them immensely though, so I might have a little masochist buried deep within me.Speaking of things buried deep... The sex scenes Holly writes are so freaking yumtastic. Let me tell you – this series puts 50SoG to shame. If you don’t like erotica though, this isn’t for you since half this book is basically sex. Really, really hot sex. With spanking, nipple clamps and clit rings. Not to mention a very bossy Ferro.These books are also chock-full of drama in the form of a disapproving Ferro family, an idiot boyfriend who basically blesses Hallie to go shack up with her ex (this boyfriend is also a complete prude, btw. Doggy style and blowjobs? Who would do such a degrading thing?), a best friend who has Hallie’s back at all times but is in trouble herself, as well as Bryan’s well-kept secrets.In my opinion this is H.M. Ward’s finest work to this date, with The Arrangement as a close second. Most of all I love her captivating writing style, as well as her incredibly diverse and perfectly imperfect characters. If you haven’t already, give it a try. I have a feeling you will love it too.

I don't know how she does it but H.M Ward has a way of sucking you into her books in a way it feels like a drug you can't live without. I fell in love with the Ferro brothers now we are onto Cousin Brian! We have met Brian many times but The Proposition gives us an in depth look and in fine Ferro fashion it seems he's as damaged as the rest.With his high school love having written a sex filled book of there once steamy relationship he uses it as a source of black mail against her, he will tell everybody she isn't the girl next door she portrays and her book isn't the fiction she makes it out to be.She has to be willing to have sex with him whenever and where ever he so choses.Hallie was in love with Brian he brought out the hot, crazy love she never had until she was adopted. For reasons unknown they went there separate ways, but after the death of her adopted father he's back looking to tumble her fragile life like a pack of playing cards.She looks to her boyfriend to defend her only to find he's more interested in dollar signs (total ass)Hallie is fighting the demons of her past while trying to keep her best friend safe. Although she shouldn't be drawn to Brian she is in a way she can't explain..Brian is full of secrets also and although he is black mailing Hallie you can't help but want him to win.. He needs to be with her and she needs him! They are an electric couple, hot sexy totally fierce!Both of these characters are strong and determined but with a dark side they need each other! Their is also a lot of cross over characters: Jon Trystan Sean and Peter!!I am obsessed!

**I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**This is book 3 out of 5 of The Proposition Series.HM Ward, you like to play with our emotions and this book definitely plays with them. The Proposition 3 did not disappoint at all! This book had my emotions reeling and left me grasping my seat tight with the ending.Situations arise that cause characters to make tough choices that may forever change their lives and secrets untold may end up in tragedy. Dark pasts are revealed that shocked me completely and made me understand why the characters are they way they are.Bryan and Hallie are CALIENTE...STEAMING HOT! When those 2 are together, the temperature most definitely rises (**still fanning self**).We are also treated to crossover characters that add to the mystery that is Bryan Ferro and why he has the pills around.Overall, a wonderful read that has me on pins and needles waiting for The Proposition 4.

Simply stated, I'm addicted. Who doesn't love the Ferro family? The intricate web being woven here is leading the reader on a complex and steamy path with intense emotion. It is like watching a fierce storm cloud spinning and churning off in the distance, knowing that it is growing in intensity and severity with thunder and lighting and wind whipping through it as it moves closer and closer to unleashing its full power. Hallie knows Bryan would do anything to be with her now, and that this game, this blackmail is his only way of doing it. Even with her animosity toward his cousin Jon, she knows he is there watching over Bryan, and is as much in the dark as she is as to what it so very wrong with him. Then there is Neil, smooth on the outside, conniving and cruel underneath. Was his plan to use Hallie all along? Would the Ferro's let that happen even if they think Hallie is no good for Bryan? Can't wait to see what happens next.

This book was tugging at my heart all the way thru? There were so many emotions thru out this book that you were smiling or crying. The suspense is going to kill us all if we don't get #4 soon. I wish sometimes that the books were just a little bit longer as I really enjoy the story lines and what Holly puts into her books! Great job as usually you never disappoint your fans

I love all of Holly's books, love them, to choose a favourite would be like choosing a favourite niece or chocolate bar - not gonna even bother trying for a pointless exercise lol!As another review has said often by book 3 you're like pah just dragging, stories getting a bit too dragged out, you know how it is! Not so with this one. This one has you speed reading then being gutted that its over! I'm not kidding, I need the next book asap, I need to know what happens!We discover that Hallie is tough, she'll stick up for anyone she cares about, she's fiercely protective of Maggie and just wants to keep her friend safe and secure. Hallie finds out that Bryan is sick, she doesnt know what up but I have a feeling Bryan will have absolutely no chance but to accept Hallie's help, she's a bit like a dog with a bone when she loves someone and I believe she's still totally, hopelessly gone for him (and he is too)!I hope he's fixable, I want him to be ok, I don't want Hallie to have any more tragedy! I just love the Ferro's and can't think about them with a Bryan shaped hole :(

I was disappointed with reading this.... BECAUSE it ended to quickly! I felt like I was just getting into the story and it stopped! hahato tell the truth I loved it. I hope that Brian works out his problems and Hallie and him actually get together! they make a good couple! hahaPlease can I has more???

Wow Wtg Holly, loved it ! Drama, suspense and attraction all in one ! Couldn't believe the ending ! Bryan ferro had me speechless yet again ! Couldn't believe it ! I'm just wow !

The twists and changes in this book were not what I expected! Hallie's charachter definitely belongs in the Ferro family. You build an image of her in the first couple of books and this book just blows that apart. H.M. Ward's books have a bit of everything in them which makes you not want to put them down. Can't wait for the next in the series.
