Again, I am pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed M. Robinson's writing in this third book of the VIP series. While I wasn't a huge fan of Madam herself, I did like the Ysabelle and Sebastian characters from the first book and am glad to see they were the focal point of book three. This review may spoil books one and two.
"The instant connection we shared and the gravitational pull we had toward each other was inevitable. That's what happens when two halves of a heart come together and become one. They're bonded for life." ~ Sebastian
"There was no Sebastian without Ysabelle. She was my everything....." ~ Sebastian
MVP picks up right where VIP left off, with Ysa and Sebastian stating from scratch. They so needed that and with their time apart, Ysa became a stronger woman while Sebastian figured out what he wanted to do with the rest of his life. Things are all straightened out with Julia and Christian, now it was time to straighten it out with Ysa.
"There wasn't one place on my body that hadn't been touched by a man or a woman, except my heart. That has only ever been touched and connected to one person. Sebastian." ~ Ysa
Sounds easy enough. Stay together on the island and run her bar, live happily ever after. Nope. Too freaking easy to write that story. M. Robinson runs her characters through the emotional ringer and expects things to be all honky dory. Like in VIP, you can't read this story fast enough to see how it is going to turn out in the end.
Ysa and Sebastian are defiantly changed people this time around, however that seems to be what is freaking each of them out. He's a feeling talker abouter and she isn't at all, and that seems to be the crux of the relationship problems. With a past like the one they share, it's a no brainer they have a lot to figure out if they are ever going to move forward together.
"Everything in life happens for a reason."
"And he was my reason."
"Always and forever." ~ Ysa
The book is well written although I do have two small gripes. One is that we are constantly told how tiny Ysa is. We get it, she's small, move on. Also there is some repeating in the chapters. I love a POV story, especially the way M. Robinson alternates within the chapter, however the repeating of the previous lines seem like filler, not expanding of the story. That being said, MVP was an excellent addition to the VIP series.
