Review:

Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars

Tangled Up in You is the final book in The Shaughnessy Brothers series by Samantha Chase. The hero is Anna's brother from Always my girl (book 3) and Teagan is Quinn's cousin. Two things bothered me and led me to give 3.5 stars to the book. The minor problem I had was the epilogue. Since this is the final book, I was expecting it to have a big epilogue with most if not all of the couples from the series. Instead, we got one with Bobby and Teagan only. That did not affect my rating in a negative way, but if I had gotten what I wanted I would have raised my rating. 

The major problem for me and the one that had an impact on my rating was Bobby's past. Half of the book is focused on his dating life before he met Teagan and it's not the first half. He kept saying that he was not the person his family thought he was and basically that they were wrongfully accusing him of sleeping around, but the one time he and Teagan went out, she met three of the women he had slept with. 3. Not one, not two, but three women and one of them had been his ex-partner on the force. I don't understand why we had to hear again and again about his dating life and see the women. Two of them propositioned him with Teagan present. His family was not wrong when they were saying that the was sleeping around. And the worst thing is that Bobby in this book seemed like a grumpy, ungrateful manwhore who couldn't do the right thing. He was not boyfriend material. 

Instead of mentioning the exes, we could have seen him do family activities with Teagan and her son. Lucas was only present when he was needed as a plot device to help Teagan and Bobby be in the same room. In the second half of the book, we mostly heard about him doing a sleepover at Anna or his grandmother's house. I was expecting something better from Samantha Chase since I am a big fan of hers. This is the reason why I am rounding down my rating instead of up.
