I cannot believe that this is my first Cadwell Brother book. What rock have I been living under? These brothers are absolutely amazing. All three of them have lived a life with a not so great father and an amazing mother. The amazing mother definitely over shadows the dad. The truths and feelings that she instilled in her boys make them the men that women dream of.
This is Jagger’s story. The baby of the family and the last to meet the woman of his dreams he is wonderful. Both Jagger and Tatiana have a rough history yet they both manage to stay strong and true to what they would like to happen. They protect each other, lean on each other when they need it, and love each other with their whole beings.
Jagger is a heartwarming tough story about two people who are meant to be together. There are lessons to be learned and these two learn them together. It is not necessarily an easy book to read. There are tough topics covered within the story.
Chelsea Camaron and M.J. Fields have come together to write a wonderful story. I recommend checking it out.

It starts off in the prologue with the fmc being 17. I thought it would jump in time by a few years for her to be at least 21/22 and the MMC being mid 20s. It did not. I get the premise of him wanting to save her and why, I'll even allow the attraction, but too much happened while she was 17 and it kept bothering me. I ended up reading online reviews and the story never ages up. She turns 18 and suddenly it's ok for the MMC to do whatever he wants sexually. She's also a DV survior so it really just feels like he's grooming her. Such a letdown after the other books.

I'm a huge fan of this series and this is the last Caldwell brother to take the plunge. I enjoyed this book, but it wasn't my favorite in the series. There is some tough issues that this book deals with. In the opening scene is one of those moments. Tatiana hasn't had the easiest or happiest life, but for her that fateful day Jagger came into her life she has something she never had before a champion in her corner. The little things Jagger does for Tatiana is so sweet and shows us a different side to Jagger. The transformation in Tatiana as she becomes aware of her self worth with the help of Jagger is truly a beautiful thing. This book has angst, passion, family, and a lot of emotion. Read the pages to see if Jagger can live up to the legacy that the Caldwell's Momma wanted them to leave. The last chapter is truly beautiful and left me with a happy heart.
Jagger is a story about people who have suffered abuse and rising above the ashes. This book has a great meessage about never giving up hope and fighting for freedom. I loved the storyline and I loved the message, the only complaint I had was that it just felt rushed. There is a lot of potential in this story and I did like it, I just wasn't able to connect enough to it to love it. I really liked the characters and I liked this story enough to want to go back and read Hendrix and Morrison's story.

I received an ARC and it was like Christmas! I loved the first two Caldwell brothers and couldn't wait to see what angsty fighter Jagger was going to get up to. He fought the good fight (so many great puns from yet another Jared moment in this book, sorry!) and tried to stay away from the broken girl. Amazing all around. I'll miss these brothers. Maybe we can have Kid and Cobra next??
3.5 ⭐️ Jagger, the final brother and book the series, was a decent read. It follows a similar story line as the other books, the two main characters, Jagger and Tatiana, just have different problems. The story had decent pacing and the characters are likeable. The conflict also has a plausible resolution. In liked that it was a group of people with rough lives that have overcome them and become s family on their own.
There are some things that bothered me through the whole series. All of the men call their girls little ______ ( fill in the blank) it was either momma, one, etc. it just bothered me. These guys also didn't seem real. I get the honoring of their mother and it was admirable, but it was talked about so much that it got to be annoying. The dialect was another area that bothered me, I don't feel like real men talk like this.
All in all, it was a decent series, but I don't think I would ever go back and re-read it. I didn't love or care about them enough to enjoy their story again.

“Don’t you see? You are everything good in this bad, bad world of mine. Hold me back, hold me any way you want to, but please, I beg you, just hold me and don’t let go.”
Jagger is one of those reads that is either going to be a hit or miss. For me, I thought Jagger was an ok read. One of things that first grabbed my attention about this book was the synopsis. It was right up my alley for books that I enjoy reading, and I’ve never read anything by this author duo before, so I decided to take a chance on it.
Overall, I thought this book was an ok read. I really loved the idea of the story. I thought it had a lot of potential and I found the characters to be really intriguing. Jagger is told from dual points of view and starts off with a bang. I loved the dark feel to it and how both of our lead characters were damaged in their own ways and just trying to survive the best way that they could. Jagger and Tatiana had a connection that was undeniable and you could really tell that Jagger wanted to give Tatiana a better life.
I did have some issues with the story, my biggest one, being the pacing. For me, it wasn’t consistent. As I previously said, our story started off with a bang and was really going strong and then somewhere around 40-50%, the pacing started to slow down. The story was just dragging and I almost put it down a few times. But, I was able to stay with it and I did finish the story. My other issue was with our heroine, Tatiana. While I sympathized with her and really, my heart ached for how she was brought up and all that she endured, I did have some trouble connecting with her. Some of her actions weren’t very believable to me and at times, I found myself very annoyed with her.
I don’t want to say too much else about this book, because I do want to keep it as spoiler free as possible. So, I will just say that this was a quick read for me. This story does deal with some very difficult subject matter and I do feel the authors handled that well. This story does have some drama, and romance. It did frustrate me at times, and while I did have some issues with it, I am still glad that I checked this story out and gave it a chance.

ARC ~provided by NetGalley~ review:
This is the 3rd Caldwell brothers book, but the first I have read. After reading about Jagger and Amber I am eager to read the first two. These brothers have hearts of gold. Amber has resilience like I've never dreamed I could have after facing an abusive father.
Since this is a HEA I don't consider this part a spoiler, but just in case SPOILER ALERT.......
I found the wedding to be absolutely THE BEST part of the book. I would love to attend a Caldwell wedding.
