Nadia is a private investigator who takes her job seriously so when she has to revisit a case that is going to upset her close friends she realizes the consequences. Trade lost the mother of his child in a car accident but he's glad they got the driver who killed her. But was he really the killer or is there a conspiracy to hide the truth? Enjoyable MC romance with lots of suspense.

Have tissues on standby - there will be tears.
This is the last book in the Fast & Fury series and it finished on a high.
This is the story of recently widowed now single dad Trade and Nadia, a family friend who is also a PI, both with ties to the MC. Although this is an MC Romance this book is also part murder mystery that adds to the dramatic plot. I loved all the characters in this series.

4 Stars for this heart-wrenching story!

This book is sad, suspenseful, shocking and sexy! Trade has been dealt a really crappy hand in life, but he keeps moving forward ... for his kids. Nadia is a strong woman who knows how to take care of herself, but still wants the love of a good man. I as rooting for Trade and Nadia ... and the kids to have their happily-ever-after, but there are lots of obstacles in their path. It was refreshing that the writer brought the kids into the books in real life ways ... not everyone is happy about this new romance. I just found that there was so much going on in the book that the actual love story seemed to be in the background. And the twist at the end had my jaw hitting the floor! A great addition to the series.

4 star review of Custom Love (Fast & Fury #3) by Chantal Fernando
Having read a few books by Chantal Fernando, I couldn’t wait to read Customs Love. From the first word to the last I was drawn in and riveted to private investigation Nadia and the single dad she has fallen for Trade.
Taking on a job quickly becomes personal for Nadia and she soon finds herself calling on the Knights of Fury MC and the Fast & Fury motorcycle garage for assistance. What she uncovers leads to danger for her blossoming relationship and family. Trade has already been through so much and I really felt for him.
There were a number of twists and turns, some I did not expect at all and Custom Love is a good example of romantic suspense.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

I have always liked anything by Chantal Fernando, sure at times I find some of her MC stories on the 'lite' side but this spin off series seems like the perfect combo. We get a bit of the MC but it is also on other characters we have seen.

When I read the prologue I was SHOCKED this was the turn the story was going. I did not see that coming at all.

We first met Nadia in Custom Built as the best friend of Bronte. We briefly see her again in Custom made, but we have Trade through out this series and also the Knights of Fury series.

From the beginning with Trade he has seemed like an awesome father. Now that tragedy has struck he has more responsibility in helping his kids go through this heartbreak.

I have to admit I never saw the possibility of Nadia and Trade but they do work together. Since it was never on our radar their full connection and quick love felt a bit too quick and insincere at times but that was easy to get past.

With all the girls at Fast and Fury the Knights Fury MC are like a big loveable protective family and make such a great addition to this series.

"Well, luckily you have all of us, now." he replies after a few moments. "We can be the family you didn't want but got stuck with anyways."

After the prologue we think all is answered but Nadia finds out it is not and investigates it more. And this turn of events of whom is truly behind things was also a big surprise. I like when authors can keep me guessing instead of being totally predictable.

The family part of this story was good and I liked all the kids and how they interacted with everyone.

My fingers are crossed that Decker gets his own story as well. Great series and I can't wait for more from this series and this author.

3.5 Stars!

So excited for Nadia and Trade’s story! After getting to know a little bit about Nadia in the first book, I was excited to get to know more about her and her back story while also giving her the HEA that she deserves. I also was very excited to get to know Trade, especially after learning about him in the previous books and what he had gone through and no longer part of the MC. My heart broke for him when reading about his girlfriend, and he’s determined to just live life with his kids, but Nadia breaks through those walls through those exact kids. Hired by the person initially imprisoned for Trade’s girlfriend’s murder, while it upsets him, Nadia is determined to find out the truth, no matter what happens to her. The back and forth and trying to figure out who was actually behind the murder as well as the web of lies surrounding it had me continuously guessing, and it really added another level to the story because it truly kept me on the edge of my seat. I was really surprised when everything came to a head and all the questions were answered, and I was also happy that Trade and Nadia were able to work through everything and get the HEA they both deserve together! I can’t wait to see if this series continues!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Trade is such a great dad. an great man period. You can tell by how his children listen and respect him this includes everyone in his life. I love how honest Nadia is. It's a trait that is missing in so many. This story is a must read.

I jumped into this series with the last book and I say for not reading the previous books, you could probably get by. But my curiosity got the best of me and I'm quite interested in reading the other two books. With Custom Love being a romantic suspense, I was hoping for that bit edgier tone and to have my heart racing to learn the truth.

And it wasn't quite there. I do enjoy Chantal's writing since this isn't my first book by them, but I keep expecting the books to have a bit of an edge .. based off of what you read in the synopsis.

I loved the friendship/relationship between Nadia and Trade. I wasn't sure how I felt about the pacing of their relationship, Nadia's worries were absolutely valid and I was right there thinking the same thing. It almost suspended belief a little bit on how quickly Trade was moving on.

Overall, it was an ok read, but I'm definitely looking forward to reading the rest from this series!

I have loved every book in this series.. we met Nadia in book 1 as she is friends with Bronte.. she also became fast friends with the rest of the Fast & Fury family..

Nadia is a PI and when she is hired/asked by an old family friend, one who practically raised her.. to look into the wrongful conviction and imprisonment of her son.. Nadia is torn.. she is a PI and what would it hurt to look.. maybe someone missed something.. but when she finds out the case involves a person who was murdered and that person is Ariel Trades deceased girlfriend.. she feels bad.. she does not want to sneak behind Trades back.. so she figures she would give him a heads up.. knowing she probably wont find anything anyway..

Trade is currently running Fast & Fury.. and my heart broke for him. He has had a tough time as of late, the night he was planning on proposing to the love of his life.. he finds out she has been murdered.. and he is left raising four children all on his own...

I loved the relationship Trade and Nadia had.. although a bit rocky at the start.. The chemistry was fire! And those kids.. OMG I loved them.. but when we find out just who was behind Ariel's death.. my heart shattered yet again.. but as [author:Chantal Fernando|7056719] does.. she puts it right back together with a amazing HEA for Trade and Nadia..

All she wanted was the truth. All he wanted was to be left alone….Nadia is so stranger to taking care of herself. She likes things her way and in her control, and that goes for her work life too. But when a dear friend asks her to look into a case, this particular case hits too close to home. The last thing she wants to do is hurt the group of friends she now calls family. But in Nadia’s line of work, she’s learned to trust her gut. In her quest to find the truth, Nadia will find more than she ever bargained for…

Custom Love is the third book in the Fast & Fury Series and it follows the story of Nadia and Trade. Trade’s world was turned upside down when the love of his life was murdered. All he’s wanted to do is move on and forget the bad card life had dealt him. Unfortunately for him, his old wounds are about to blown wide open. When Nadia gets asked to take a look at a case that most would like to forget, she has no choice but to look into it. However, in her quest to find the truth, she finds herself getting closer to Trade and falling for a man she shouldn’t be falling for….

Overall, I thought this book was a really enjoyable read. Trade and Nadia were a force right from the start. I enjoyed their chemistry and banter. I loved that Trade was tough on the outside, but had a heart of gold was an amazing father. I thought Nadia had a lot of good character. She would do anything for her friends or those she loved. She had a big heart and would never purposely hurt someone. I liked how honest she was with Trade and how she tried to navigate the uncharted waters of their relationship. The road to happily ever after wasn’t an easy one for these two, but I had a good time reading their story and seeing how they sorted it all out.

As much as I enjoyed this story, I did have a couple of issues with it. There were some passages that I felt were a bit repetitive and it was kind of distracting at times. My other issue was that I felt like parts of the story were rushed. Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoyed this story and could have easily have enjoyed another 100 pages of it. So, it kills me that certain parts were rushed.

All that being said, I still feel that Custom Love is a solid read. It was fun to get lost in and I’ve really enjoyed getting to know these characters as I’ve explored the Fast & Fury Series. I’m sad that this is the final book in this series, but hope that the author will do another spin-off as I’m not ready to say goodbye to all of these characters just yet.

Another great addition to the series, loved the hint of mystery and suspense. Looking forward to more!

A strong story but with a very dark underlying tone, the beginning is heart wrenching, though that eases through the story as it moves more towards the romance developing between Trade and Nadia. The children really help make this story though and they are absolutely adorable throughout.

I struggled a little with Nadia not telling Trade what she was doing for Marisol in the beginning, though appreciate that did built a good amount of tension in the book too and kept the pages turning. I thought the author dealt really well with the feelings of someone finding it hard to move on after losing someone too, as well as feelings on the other side, a difficult subject but covered well.

I did think this book worked well as a stand-alone but may have been enhanced if I had read the preceding books. This didn’t affect my enjoyment too much but I did occasionally think I was missing something.

This one was full of emotions, heartbreak, and the building of a beautiful relationship between Trade and Nadia. I loved this book from the very beginning, even though it started out with an awful tragedy. The little mystery throughout the book will definitely surprise you when you get to the conclusion of it. I was shocked, but I love a book that can keep me guessing. This was an amazing story and I can't wait for the next one.

Another book by Chantal Fernando that I LOVED.

Custom Love is the third book in the Fast and Fury series. It also follows on from the Knights of Fury series, both of which I have (mostly) read. I think these series are ones that have got better as they've gone on. I love when characters and books cross over!

I think I need to come back to this one. Chantal Fernando has been an auto buy for me for years- but this one I had trouble staying with.
I think the Wind Dragons just set the bar so damn high!

Custom Love is the third book in the Fast and Fury series. It also follows on from the Knights of Fury series, both of which I have (mostly) read. I think these series are ones that have got better as they've gone on. I'm not sure if that's because they have just become more interesting or because I have got to know the various characters better.
This book deals with private investigator Nadia and temporary business manager Trade. We've seen Nadia in the previous books, so it was nice to see her get her own story now. She is a strong woman and fortunately finds someone who is her equal in Trade. Trade has had a rough time, after losing the woman that he was planning to propose to, he's left raising four children.
There's a lot going on in this story. Nadia has to negotiate a new relationship while taking into account the feelings of Trade's children. She hasn't had a lot to do with kids before, so this is a whole new challenge. There is also the question of what happened to Ariel, Trade's partner and the mother of one of the children. Is the man in prison the one who really murdered her. It doesn't help that Nadia has been asked to investigate.
This was a gripping read and I couldn't help hope that Nadia and Trade would work everything out. Trade was a lovely character and the two worked really well as a couple.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

So much loss and so much love!

In the fourth book in the Fast & Fury series so much happens. Oh so worth it. Although this book stands alone reading the entire series can make the book so much better. This book has a lot of push and pull but it adds so much to the entire book. In this book you get to see a very protective dad and the incredible, strong and loyal woman he want to care about. The author writing is flawless, and the words are so captivating, the plot had so many twists and turns and none that I was expecting, and many shockingly intimate I have become a huge fan of this author. The author writes with so much intensity and emotion pulled from each book it’s felt page after page. Some are quick witted story lines are so perfect and lets you believe you have a front row seat. So being able to read this love story didn’t disappoint. The authors ability to have two separate individuals struggling in their everyday life and try to navigate someone else’s thoughts, needs and desires was intense and gives all the fills.

Authors Blurb: All she wanted was the truth.

All he wanted was to be left alone.

Nadia has always been in charge of her life. As a private investigator, she makes her own hours and only takes on cases that she wants to work on. But when a family friend asks her to look into a case, she instantly regrets it—it hits far too close to home.

The last thing she wants to do is rip open old wounds. Especially Trade’s, the single father she’s been spending time with. It isn’t long before she’s falling not just for him, but for the kids he’s trying so hard to protect.

But the little voice in Nadia’s head tells her that something isn’t right, and she’s determined to find the truth. Using her connections to the Knights of Fury MC and the Fast & Fury motorcycle garage to gather evidence, Nadia uncovers evidence of a conspiracy that will leave everyone shaken—and force her and Trade to do whatever it takes to keep their new family safe.


This book has everything I love in a book. Then you add that it's beautifully written and believable. It is easily a five star read. Written in dual POV my personal favorite this story flows so incredibly well that the next thing you know your 80% into the book and loving every second of it. The believable way the characters interact is perfect. Run, Hop, Jump or use your (1 click) finger to do whatever you have to do and get this amazing book. It'll break your heart, you'll want to scream with frustration and it'll let you discover that love just might conquer all. The chemistry is steamy and sweet and oh so romantic.

Thanks Netgally for letting me read and review.📚💕

This story moves quick. If you haven't read the others in this series, you'll probably feel a little lost as there is a bit of overlap. While I like a fast paced story, this one is almost too quick. I don't feel like we got the development of characters and plot that could have been.

I need to start off with a side note - I’ve greatly enjoyed this series. I live them!
However, I could not get into this story. I tried several times and it just didn’t capture my attention. I skipped around to the end and still wasn’t into it. Just not the story for me.

There is significant overlap between this series and Ms Fernando's other series Knights of Fury. I prefer the K/F series more. I found it more edgier and had more depth.

If I hadn't read the previous series I would have found this a great read.

The characters had amazing chemistry but I would be questioning how quickly Trade overcame his grief and was ready to move on. There were some minor hiccups but he seemed to have overcome a lot in one year. I don't think if I truly loved someone I would be ready to commit again especially with young children and given how tragically Ariel died.

I had expected more with the conspiracy than what developed. It made me question why police and FBI were saying to back off.
