BXTCHES Gotta Warn: I’ve said this in previous reviews regarding this series, but I do believe it bears a good repeat. . .you can read most of these books as stand alone (except #1 and #2), however, if you choose to wander down that route you should know that most of the books in this series has somewhat been building up towards this story. That doesn’t mean that it doesn’t read well by itself, I think it will (I can’t say 100% because I’ve read them all and in order). But having said all of that, I can say with absolute certainty that this series is worth the entire read, books 1-7, and in order. It flows well from book to book and the relationship that develops between the characters and the reader is so worth it.

Coup De Grace will be told through the POV’s of both Michael and Nikki.

We were first introduced to the idea of a Michael and Nikki back in book #2 (Double Tap), which happens to be the book that features Nikki’s brother, Nico. We also got the introduction to Nikki in that book since she and Georgia are BFF’s. In the books that follow, Michael gets dangled a lot, but he’s more shrouded in mystery and all it does is leave us wanting more, which comes through loud and clear in Coup De Grace. 

We know Michael is a member of the Kilgore SWAT team, we know that while the other guys consider Michael a brother, they also don’t know too much about him. We also know that Michael’s torso and arms are covered in tattoos, which would usually not be a talking point in an alpha heavy book, but it’s something that has been brought up in almost every storyline, so we know there is some significance to his body art and now we finally get to find out what it represents. 

This is the first book in the series where the featured couple not only previously knew one another, but had a relationship as well, but a relationship that is no longer intact when the book begins. It doesn’t take too terribly long before Nikki decides to give Michael another shot and we’re off on the journey we’ve been dying to take.

Michael and Nikki getting back together is the easy part, it’s the staying together that will have you glued to the page. There’s the ex-wife, Joselin-which you somewhat met in the last book-and who also happens to work at the same hospital as Nikki, there’s disapproving parents (his, not hers), there’s Michael’s personal demons, and there’s the reason why they broke up in the first place. Take all of that and add in some crime and suspense and you got yourself a pretty damn good story.

Coup De Grace is the final book in the Code 11-KPD SWAT series, but no worries, the 1st book in the 2nd generation series is about to be released (January 2020), which I’m sure will have us revisiting all the ones we fell for in this series. Even though the last book (#6) didn’t revisit a lot of the characters from this series, this particular book does, while giving us some new ones in the form of Michael’s family. Not only do they all come back around, but we get to also catch up on the happenings in their lives. What I love about this series is it gave us characters that we were able to fall in love with as well as look forward to revisiting time and time again, starting all the way back with Luke and Reese. That’s why I think it’s so important to read the series in order. You miss out on that connection if you don’t start from the very beginning. Every character written for this series brings something to the story, whether it’s a character that you love or that you love to hate, they will add something that will captivate you.

Time for some truth. Going into this book with the knowledge that Michael and Nikki had an established relationship and we kept getting tickled with it throughout the whole series, had me thinking that the sexual chemistry between them would be through the roof and while it was pretty hot, other couples in the series singed just a bit more. However, just like all the books in this series, it was all written well, it just didn’t curl my toes the way I was anticipating.

There is going to be a lot going down in this book with a lot of moving parts and while I enjoyed this entire series, this book was probably my least favorite, though that’s not in any way saying that it’s a bad story, it’s definitely not. However, I just thought that there were plot lines dropped throughout the book that didn’t tie up enough in the end. I actually thought that all the characters in the book were very well written. I loved Michael, I loved Nikki, I even loved them together, I just thought that some of the side stories were rushed in being tied up and because of that, there wasn’t enough closure. Having said all of that, if I were to re-read this series tomorrow, I would re-read this one as well.

I started this series a long, long, long time ago, but never got around to this particular book. With the 2nd generation series coming out soon, I decided to give the whole series a re-read and I’m so glad I did. Lani Lynn Vale does a wonderful job at keeping the storylines fresh and interesting and the characters never bleed into one another, they all have very distinguishing personalities and give you different reasons for why you fall for them. She knows how to cover the spectrum and tie the humor to the angst to the passion to the suspense and present it all in a way that has you bouncing from one book to the next. I cannot wait for the next generation and all that it promises to give. Since this is the final review for this particular series, I do think it’s important to bow our heads and say a bit of praise for all the hotness that is on the covers on each and every book and to say a little prayer that if you ever need the SWAT team knocking down your door, that the real world is a tiny bit comparable to the fantasy in which our imagination lives.
