The Final Hour (Dublin Nights Book 5)
Sean McGregor, the handsome and protective Irish billionaire, was once the king of one-night-stands, but when a beautiful and courageous Italian comes into his life, everything changes. He only wants her--the one woman he can't have.
As one of the leaders of the world's most powerful secret society, Emilia Calibrisi can't afford to believe in fairy tales, not when so much of her life has ended in tragedy and heartache. The last thing she has time for is falling in love, especially with Sean McGregor.
Trapped by loyalty and family tradition, rules and promises are in place to keep Sean and Emilia apart. But unable to resist the pull of fate, Sean finds himself fighting for Emilia's heart while he fights by her side to dismantle a dangerous criminal organization. And slowly, Emilia falls victim to his charms. His incredible strength. Those big blue eyes and sinful accent.
Sean and Emilia's insatiable need for each other has them playing with fire and blurring the lines by which they are bound.
But when the sins of her father come to light and secrets are revealed, Emilia and Sean don't know whom to trust. Is their happiness attainable, or will Emilia once again choose duty over love?
In this thrilling new pulse-pounding addition to the Dublin Nights Series, everything will be on the line in the final hour, including their lives.

I received an arc for review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Each Brittney Sahin book I read I seem to get more and more attached. I don’t think I can ever read The End for Dublin series, even though this may have been, and I am having a hard time writing a review. Emilia Calibrisi is a powerful woman who doesn’t bow to men at all, well, at least not most men. For some reason, Sean McGregor is her Achilles heel. Having been the daughter of a League leader and now being the Italian leader, she has specific rules to follow and a promise to keep. Though can she? Sean McGregor may be the CEO of McGregor Enterprises, but he is part of the League. Responsible for protecting Ireland and keeping the Alliance at bay. Having met Emilia almost a decade earlier, the once playboy is now wondering what could be if stars and bad guys stayed in line. How much forbidden love, suspense, loyalty, and betrayal can Brittney write in one book? A whole heck of a lot! I mean Holy Cannoli. This book was one wild ride, and I tried early on writing down everyone’s names to see who I thought was good or bad to say AH I got it, but it never happened. I also have to own up to the fact that I wasn’t sure Emilia would be able to let her guard down and wondered what happened to her in the past that made her this way. I am happy to say she got her HEA. It takes real talent and a gifted mind to intertwine Dublin Nights with Stealth Ops and add in the mystery and suspense of The Alliance. I highly recommend reading these books in order.
Fairy Tales do come true,sometimes.
What a conundrum, how can you put into mere words just what a fantastic experience this was? Emilia and Sean's story spans the gamut from flirtation, loss,lust,life,to a very HEA. There are obstacles to their fairy tale ending, familial obligations, onerous responsibilities, lies, deceit, and revenge. There are plot twist that you never see coming, but oh my, does it make you happy for it . There's action by the truck load, repressed longings, a bit of angst,and some serious romantic steam. Another one of my favorite things is when the Author brings in characters from other series in crossovers , we get to revisit some favorites in this book. As a guy who reads thriller romances, this book and the whole series was such a fun ride. Do yourself a favor, block out a couple of hours and immerse yourself in this fantastic world Brittney has created. #realmenreadromance

I loved this book so much that I purchased a copy of this book as part of my forever collection as well.
Could not put it down!
I was fortunate to receive an ARC copy of this book and I can promise that you are in for a treat. The Final Hour was a serious page turner with several twists and turns that I did not see coming. Sean and Emilia sizzle on the page, while finding their way through all the challenges that face their love. By the end they find that truth they have based their lives on has to be reevaluated and that family can be more than we know. I do have one warning.... Once you start, it is hard to put the book aside to do anything else.
The Final Hour kept me on the edge on my seat!
WOW!!! Every time I finish a Brittney Sahin novel, I feel like I need to take a big breath, or get oxygen! This is the 5th book in the Dublin Nights Series, and I keep thinking, how could the next one be better? Yet, each one has surpassed the predecessor. Sean McGregor is one of the leaders of the vigilante group The League. While this group wants to protect the citizens of their countries and fight evil, there is an opposing group The Alliance, that just wants more power and money. The two groups have been fighting against each other for years (aside from a short-lived truce) and now the League must take down the Alliance once and for all! Emilia Calibrisi is also a League leader in Italy. She’s intelligent, capable, and strong! These two made a connection in the past and even 10 years later still have a strong chemistry. League rules and a promise to her father keep the two apart. The evil villain in the form of Luca Moreau (from The Real Deal, and Inside Man) returns to create havoc and treachery among the McGregor family and the League. The cat and mouse game begins once again, and everyone is affected by Luca’s machinations. The pace is quick, action packed, and intense. There is a cameo from several of the Stealth Ops series as Brittney merges the two series together. I really enjoy when an author brings two series together, there is a certain sense of ‘belonging to the same world’ that is entertaining. I also enjoyed that the players in the previous Dublin Nights books are here to back up Sean, Emilia, and the League, getting a glimpse back into their lives and relationships. Of course, there are several twists and turns that (I’ll bet you don’t see coming) make the pages fly by. I found myself reading slower toward the end of the book because I really didn’t want this series to end. I hope eventually, Ethan (the remaining McGregor sibling) will get his own book. I am so glad I found Brittney Sahin’s books, they have given me hours up on hours of entertainment, suspense, romance, humor, and an overall goodhearted feeling. Pick up The Final Hour, You’ll love it!!!
Fabulous Series Finale
The Final Hour by Brittney Sahin is a fabulous ending to the Dublin Nights series. It's filled with treachery, betrayal, blackmail, lies, deceit, and manipulations to name a few. In addition there's hard hitting action, suspense and blistering hot romance. Members of Stealth Ops Echo Team in addition to all the previous Dublin Nights couples are involved and only serve to enhance the storyline spectacularly! Sean and Emilia's love story plays out across The Final Hour. Together they practically sizzle off the pages. These two are at crossroads in their lives. One is ready for marriage and family while the other is torn between falling in love or honoring a promise from the past. It's a fairytale 10 years in the making!
Loved it! Had a hard time putting it down!
She has done it again! I think this might be my favorite book of the series! The love Sean has for Emilia and his determination to break down her walls... and then Emilia's internal battle with herself because she wants to keep a promise to her father made it hard to put the book down. Brittany really knows how to write a story that makes the characters feel so real that when they laugh, you literally laugh, and the same when they are sad, you cry along with them. I'm sad that it's the last book but now I can read all of them back to back.
An emotional well to fall into
Emilia, the Italian League leader, and Sean, Irish League co-leader, met on her 21st birthday and other events from that night overshadowed her memory of the meeting, but not his when they see each other again years later. As the story progresses a rule is broken, a false trail is followed, and if they cannot discover the true enemy everything could come crumbling down. Brittney Sahin created an emotional well to fall into with Emilia and Sean as they fight the natural chemistry between them in The Final Hour. I received a free copy of the book from the author. I had the opportunity to review or not.
Perfect finale!
First off, if you haven’t read any of the others in the series, it’s ok. Brittney does such an amazing job with her details that you won’t feel like you’re missing out. Emilia & Sean were off the charts with chemistry. Emilia is such a bad@$$, and tries so hard to be perfect in her role, especially as the first female in charge. Sean has been head over heels for her for years, and he’s done fighting it. Take that chemistry, add in the excitement of taking down the bad guys, with a good old fashioned twist, and this book is EPIC!!
Good story BUT.....
I've read several of Brittney Sahin's books. The stories were good and I enjoyed reading them BUT I was tired of the intimate sexual descriptions. I'm not a prude but I don't need the details. I found a book by Amelia Addler and found another good interesting story. The books were described was 'clean' romance and found that that meant the sexual descriptions were not needed in the writing of these books. So if you are like me try searching for 'clean' book authors.
