He isn't Mr. Nice Guy…
Julian Dane thought he'd hit rock bottom — until he met a woman (isn't that what they all say?). He used her and broke her heart. Now he wants to turn things around but the damage he dealt stands in his way.
Kendall Parker's unique issues have made it hard to live a normal life. Very few people understand her and she trusts even less … but she believed in Julian once, and he only betrayed her.
Now Julian is back — a new man — and determined to win Kendall's heart. But this reformed bad boy just might find that Going in Deep is harder than it looks.

Going
In Deep is the fourth book in the Billionaire Bad Boy Series by Carly
Phillips. This is the story of Julian Dane and Kendall Parker. Julian is introduced in Going Down Easy, the
first book in the series. He is part of
the original Blink team until he drops out of school because of family
problems. He never shares his problems
with his friends instead he disappears and uses alcohol and drugs to deal with
the pain.
Unfortunately, drugs are only part of the mistakes he makes in
his life. He uses Kendall to get to his
former friends so he can sue them for, what he
believes he deserves for his contributions to starting Blink.
Going
in Deep’s timeline is a year after Julian and Kendall last met. They are both haunted by their past. Kendall
doesn’t trust men because Julian used her so easily
to hurt the people she loves. Julian is
haunted because he used Kendall, a woman
with mental and emotional problems.
Kendall Parker is bipolar
and Lexie’s (Going Down Easy) twin sister.
She is finally standing on her own after intensive therapy; sadly her
sister doesn’t always trust her decisions regardless of how much she shows them
she is on track. Her biggest regret is
that she gave her heart away to Julian Dane.
I love Kendall. She is
the best female character in the series for me.
She is strong even though it took a long time to get herself together, but now she is determined and knows
what she wants. Kendall is an animal
lover and works in a rescue.
She doesn’t
make a lot of money, but she gets by. Kendall knows she has a gift and uses it to match dogs with owners. It is hard for her many days but she doesn’t give up. I can only imagine what it is like to fight
the demons that can take over the thought mechanisms that most of us take for
granted. She is one of those characters that you can’t help but cheer for.
Julian is another character that I like a lot. He admits to his mistakes and even though it
is easy to use life’s circumstances as an excuse he doesn’t. Julian
takes responsibility and works to make amends.
I like the way he fits with Kendall and the way they join forces to
fight for what they want. Without a doubt,
these two have a lot to work through, and it doesn’t look good at times, but they are determined.
I’ve said it before, and
it is worth repeating, I am a Carly Phillips fan. I like her romances. They are quick reads that give me a lot of
enjoyment. For me, her books are
realistic with a little dose of a fairy-tale
to give the reader hope that true love is within reach for all. Ms. Phillips has a gift and shares a good
story.
Like the other books in the series, we see the vulnerable side
of the main characters. We also see how
they work hard to succeed in life, business, and love. My only complaint is that the books are short
and I feel like some scenes are glossed
over a little too quickly. Even with the
epilogs that give us a glimpse of their
futures, a lot is missing. It would work better if each book had an
extra chapter or two but that is me. I
like more depth. Regardless Going
in Deep like the rest of the books in the series, is a good time and a must read.
