Publisher's summary

Some men are just better when they're brave.

Welcome to the Point...

Titus King sees the world in black and white, right and wrong. That is why as a teenager he left behind the only family he'd ever known to make a better life for himself. Now a police detective in one of the worst cities in the country, he can't deny his life has turned into a million different shades of gray.

The new criminal element in the Point has brought vengeance and destruction right to Titus' front door, and the difference between right and wrong is nothing compared to keeping those he loves alive. To add to his already strained moral compass, the beautiful and mysterious Reeve Black has made her way back to town, and she might be as dangerous to Titus as the guy trying to destroy the Point. Titus needs her in more ways than one.

Reeve knows all about how ruthless this new threat to destroy the Point can be. Instead of running away, she wants to help. She has a lot to repent for, and saving the city, plus the hot cop that she hasn't been able to forget, might just be the only way she can finally find some inner peace.

With an entire city poised on the brink of war, Titus and Reeve stand in the crossfire - and it will take two brave souls to fight for the ultimate love.

Even Better When He's Brave

Crownover's Point series steps up the danger as we move on to another character mixed up in this seedy and dark place. This story was surprising but no less sexy. The intensity, suspense and sexual tension is freaking delicious. Readers dive into a world where it just might be good to be bad, even better to be bold, and still even better to be brave.

The narrators give a spot-on performance, conveying all the emotion and the danger. This series was meant for audio. Don't miss out on the experience!

Titus meets his match

Would you listen to Better When He's Brave again? Why?

I would and will when the next book in the series comes out.

What did you like best about this story?

We get to see the other side of Titus in this book. In Better When He's Bad & Better When He's Bold we see the love he has for Bax and the make shift family Bax creates. In some ways Titus see's everyone as his family by extension. In Better When He's Brave we really get to see how Titus isn't so different from Bax and he really does fight to protect his town and most of all the people he loves.

Can't wait for the next story! Loved how they bring the whole crew with them to each story...
But, none will touch Bax's story!

Opposites attract - the cop and the criminal

Book 3 in the Welcome to the Point series is written about Titus King and Reeve Black. Titus King is a good man and a good cop, a rare one of either in a place full of corruption and tainted folks. He's the type of guy who always does the right thing, even if it means arresting his own brother.

"I've been fighting every single day of my life. Sometimes I think all I have left is fight."

Reeve hasn't always made the right decisions, but she's done what she needs to survive. She finds herself smack dab in the middle of the new ruthless threat to The Point. So instead of deciding to save herself and run away, she puts her life on the line and decides to help bring this threat down. She turns to Titus for help, knowing he's the one good cop she can trust. But he's not happy to see her. Now it's Titus's job to protect and keep Reeve alive long enough to take down this new threat, and that means spending LOTS of time together, in close quarters.

"She might look like a dream and taste like dessert, but I knew there was a lot of tart underneath that pretty outer shell."

Opposites attract right? Will the cop lower his guard long enough to fall in love with a criminal? Packed with lots of drama, suspense, and twists and turns, I was glued to every page upon opening. Crownover did a great job laying out a steady and developed plot. I enjoyed the forbidden romance and reading about a badass cop like Titus.

The narrators did an excellent job and bringing the characters to life.

*Note: while this is book 3 in the series, I read it as a standalone. Most backstories from the first two books are explained so that I didn't feel that I was missing something. It only made me want to go back and read Bax's and Race's stories asap!!

THE BEST ONE YET

This book is an erotic, romance, drama and violence.

I love this new series from Jay Crownover, but you must be warn it is a bit on the dark side. This book is not the typical good girl meets bad boy, the roles are reversed and bad is every kind of bad you can think of.

We meet Titus King as the brother of Bax in Better When He Is Bad. Titus is a cop and he has a mission to destroy the one man that has been causing havoc around The Point the person will surprise you. I had no idea who was kidnapping, killing and blowing up buildings. Although The Point is the wrong side of the tracks not everything in this word is black and white, sometimes there is gray. When he meets Reeves his mission now includes saving and protecting those that make The Point.

You meet Reeves as the betrayer of every person she meets, she knows how to do one thing and that is the use people to get what she wants. When she finally thinks she's in love it's with the wrong person, but when she does find REAL love she is on a mission to repent all her sins and make all the wrong she has made in the past, right again, even if it kills her or worse destroy the possible future she has with Titus.

Not everything is what it appears to be and this book has more twists and turns in it my head was going to explode. This book had to be the best of all The Point series.
