For three books I've wondered what the deal was with the evil Mr. Rees, Sr. To say he's an evil piece of work is putting it mildly. Then there was the new evil that just showed up making you want to rip it's hair out from the roots. These evil forces fuel this epic tale where two people must fight for love.
Reading the prologue made me sure I was going to hate Vaughn for most of the book. Surprisingly, I forgave him pretty early on. I've loved the pairing of Tyra and Vaughn since the beginning. Even when he kept saying they were temporary and could never be. I knew that Love and B.B. Reid Always find a way!
Vaughn and Tyra's story has unusual challenges, friendship, family, heat, sweetness, and wonderful surprises. Tyra is sassy, intelligent, beautiful and a bit shy but fierce when she needs to be. Vaughn is protective, devoted, hot and a possessive jerk when he (feels/thinks) needs to be. They're the perfect compliment to each other.
I Loved The Prince and the Pawn, just as I have loved each book in the When Rivals Play Series! B.B. Reid outdoes herself with each book. She creates a family of unique and engaging characters who draw you into their world and make you never want to leave. Because this is the final book of the series that is especially true. I wanted to devour every page quickly to experience Tyra and Vaughn's journey, while still wanting to go slowly so that series didn't end. The fabulous yet hilarious ending was perfect! It does what all great epilogues do; Gives a small glimpse beyond "The End" for characters who have come to hold a place in your heart, and sparks the hope that you might see them again someday.
I can't wait to see where Ms. Reid takes us next! I KNOW it will be a new world filled with new characters who steal our hearts!

Perfect ending to a great series!
I have loved Tyra since she was introduced in the first book. She's smart, driven, and she doesn't take any crap. Vaughn was the popular quarterback and Tyra the nerd. They couldn't be any more different but they worked. While I loved Tyra in the previous books I felt Vaughn evolved the most throughout their story. We got to see the softer side of him and I loved it! There was a lot going on and I was on the edge of my seat wondering how everything would end. The extended epilogue was a treat."Being in love never made anyone a saint. It just made us better, happier versions of ourselves."Because he was proof that no matter which way the water flowed, it would always lead me back to you. You were the definite course.""My head was no longer heavy with the weight of the crown I'd been born with. Instead, my heart had been filled with a far greater honor - a husband and a father. I wouldn't fall or fail them now"

WOW! WHAT AN EXPLOSIVE FINALE! I was scared going into the final book because I knew it would WRECK me and wow B.B. was not playing around..I haven’t felt this many emotions while reading a novel in a while. Vaughn and Tyra are definitely a sexy couple. These two were fire and ice and a perfect match to the other. I craved their banter and delicious sexy moments but also knew how toxic they could be towards the other and still craved more..I won’t forget these two for awhile.

So I pretty much just absolutely loved Tyra. She was very relatable and I truly felt for her when Vaughn would treat her badly and what he did in the middle of the story.. god I just wanted to take Tyra and hide her away. Tyra really grew up in this book, though she was still controlled by her feelings for Vaughn, she learned not be so submissive and stick up for herself, she really learned her worth. Sometimes the heart really just wants what it wants and in this case it would be her explosive connection with Vaughn. “𝙄’𝙙 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙙 𝙢𝙮𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙄 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙙𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙑𝙖𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙥𝙪𝙡𝙡 𝙢𝙚 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠.

Vaughn.. where do I start? This man was sinfully delicious, bad, sweet, and RUINED ME!! I literally wanted to stab him and then I wanted to run into his arms because I guess I’m a sucker for the damaged men. Vaughn absolutely did some inexcusable things to Tyra but not all is at it seems.. and everything is planned ahead of time in Vaughn’s brain. What wasn’t planned was his love for Tyra he’ll do absolutely anything to keep her safe even if it means giving her up. “𝙈𝙮 𝙨𝙪𝙙𝙙𝙚𝙣 𝙪𝙧𝙜𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙪𝙣𝙗𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚.“

Get ready for the ride of your life, and twists you won’t see coming! Vaughn and Tyra are definitely my favourite couple.🖤 y’all ain’t ready for that ending! WHERES MY TISSUES?!🤧
