I absolutely love this series! And I LOVE Natalie & Grayson together ♥️ spicy romance books are my favorite and this book did it for me! I loved every page. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope! Something about the drama and the angst, just grabs my attention! Also having characters from the other books in this, makes it that much better too! And when you have the drama, suspense, action in a romance book..I become obsessed. I love feeling all the emotions! I love spice as much as the next person but a great storyline is what does it for me. Read this series! You won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait for more!

This is a good book with a great plot. The characters are well-developed and have growth throughout the book.
This book focuses on Natalie and Grayson. Natalie is a woman on a mission to uncover something about her late father. Grayson is one of the best architects and has built more elaborate walls around himself.
Natalie meets Grayson while working in a job that she is overqualified for while looking for answers. She’s not one of the girls in the office that gossips and waits around for Grayson to notice her. She gets her work done and is pretty persistent. Grayson is a force to be reckoned with he goes after what he wants.
What happens when a self reliant woman meets a strong-willed man? Can she break down his walls? Will he find out the secrets she tries to hide? What will happen when the truth final comes out? Read to find out.

Grayson Wu is a well-known, successful architect. His plans to renovate a part of the city for a new residential/business district is going along smoothly, until it comes to the purchase of the single perfect building. No one seems to have any information about it. When Grayson hand picks Natalie Chapelle to be his liaison between himself and the city officials, he realizes she is hiding things, including her last name. I love this series and each of the boys of the WaterFyre Rising gang. Cannot wait for the next one!

I love a good enemies to friends story and this one did not disappoint. I really enjoyed Natalie and Grayson. The back and forth between the two really helped move the plot which I thought started out slow. I enjoy reading this author and would definitely recommend her books. I look forward to the next one!

The Innovator (WaterFyre Rising Book 3) by Nadia Han – Review by Jessica Stone
“The Innovater”, is book 3 of the WaterFyre Rising series and like this novels two predecessors, the author Nadia Han, knocked this one out of the ball park.
Natalie LaRue has recently moved to the states and taken a job way under her normal pay grade l in hopes of solving a mystery surrounding a property that her father purchased before his recent death. Grayson Wu is a top notch architect just trying to get a project of his off the ground and running but is having a hard time getting his hands on the means to. All the while dealing with his Uncle betraying his family in the worst possibly way and trying to heal his heart from the damage and distrust resulting from this. The last thing he needs is the infuriating Natalie taking up more space in his head, but she’s to distracting to not linger on.
I believe that this book could be read as a stand-alone but I recommend reading the first two books before this too help you get the whole picture, each book builds a little more and you can tell that things are coming to a head soon.
I love the relationship, the angsty, cat and mouse, enemies to lovers feel to this book. Natalie is so strong and brave and proud and just wants answers. I admire the strength her character shows in this book. Grayson is also a strong character, his stubbornness frustrated me for a while but the healing that he goes through in this book and his growth is *chefs kiss* wonderful. Both of these characters are well rounded and made for each other. I feel like this author might be becoming a favorite of mine, I like the thought and effort put into her work, the world and character building is terrific. The slow burn of this series as it picks up steam is a wonderful change of pace.

The Innovator is the third book in the WaterFyre Rising series by Nadia Han. This contemporary romantic suspense can be read as a standalone, but I’d suggest reading the other books in the series as they show other aspects of the shared past of this group of male friends.
Starting in the prologue, we get a glimpse of Grayson’s past and how he feels after what happened to his friends and him when they were younger. This scene drew me into our main Hero’s life, allowing me to connect to him and to want to protect him. I loved that I got to see how his past kind of shaped his future and shaped him.
I love the strong, sexy, smart heroine, Natalie, who is bold enough to go up against Grayson. Will being stuck together change their minds? Can they get over despising each other long enough to explore their mutual attraction? And if they do, will it then be possible for them both to overcome their past in order to have a future together? Grayson and Natalie’s story definitely has passion, romance, friendship, danger, and suspense. You should definitely check this series out.

I love this series! Book 3 did not disappoint! The Innovator made me intrigued of what’s to come. There’s been drama, action, and romance in all the books so far, but it’s starting to peak in book 3. The author wrote a wonderful story about the romance of 2 people, but also the collective danger lurking in the wings for all the characters throughout these books. Book 3 is Grayson and Natalie’s story. Which definitely didn’t start off on the best foot. They argued and got under each other’s skin, at the same time those arguments made them more interested in the other. Natalie is in Providence trying to find out why her father died and why he left her a building. Under an alias she gets a job at the Department of Public Works and Parks to see if she can dig up any info she can on The Prism. Not that it led her to anything but Grayson. Grayson is trying to get his Three Point Park Project off the ground. One problem he needs to get his hands on The Prism building. The other problem is a beautiful blonde(Natalie) who just gets under his skin but he loves to argue with. It’s a constant game of cat and mouse between these two. Until a bet is placed between them. That bet goes hand and hand with their attraction to one another. But what happens when they end up at The Fortress together. A getaway retreat where they are the only two occupying the space. Do they succumb to their desires? What happens when Natalie is threatened by her ex? Does Grayson come to the rescue? What about the never ending threats to Grayson and his friends? They saw something when they were teenagers that could threaten their lives and of those they love even now. Can Natalie and Grayson weather that storm? So much going on and so many questions that come to mind. I’ll reiterate that the author wrote a wonderful story. A story that could be read as a standalone novel because of the romance, however it’s not recommended due to the drama and action. These books are all connected. Each one may focus on a different set of characters but it also focuses on the group of guys as a whole. You will have so many more questions if you don’t start at the beginning. So it’s time. You need to either start this series, trust me you won’t regret it. Or it’s time to jump into book 3 because you read books 1 & 2. The decision is yours!

I should not be surprised at the varied and depths of emotions this author can evoke from me. But I find myself surprised again. The story keeps you involved from beginning until the end. Each mystery is part of the larger story that continues to build. The devotion from these childhood friends is the backbone for each guy. The growing SSG is a fantastic compliment to the guy group.
Natalie is trying to find out the truth behind the secrets surrounding her father’s death. She walks away from her posh lifestyle in Paris to re-establish herself as a municipal employee in Providence, the city that contains the answers she is looking for. She meets Grayson through normal business and decides that he is a jerk.
Grayson has been in a dark place ever since his uncle’s secrets and deception came out. Grayson has been shaken to his very core. He has been grouchy and growly, not caring who he insulted. It was during this time that he met Natalie. When he started hanging out with her, for business of course, he discovered that there was more to this woman than her persistence for government documents and signatures. Her creative soul spoke to his wounded soul in a way no one else had ever before.
I love this series. These characters are real despite their millions. Facing down secret societies and masked villains are commonplace for this group of friends. A wonderful chosen family that defies the quests and coded operations. Looking forward to the next in the series. Forrest!!

It was great to be back in this series! Nadia Han crafted another wonderful book within the WaterFyre Rising world. This book is great as a continuation or a standalone. If you like a slow burn and enemies-to-lovers, this book is perfect for you. And who wouldn’t want a sexy AND smart billionaire to love? *swoon*

Another wonderful book by this talented author. I really loved this story and the characters in it. This was Natalie and Grayson’s story! Natalie and Grayson had such chemistry, it was literally pouring off the pages. If there’s one thing this author does right is she gets the connection and passion between the characters she’s writing about spot on. Apart from the simmering connection between the two characters we’ve got the twists and turns that deal with both of their pasts and I think in particular Grayson’s past was really interesting to see him work through. This is the third book in the series but can be read as a standalone, I would recommend reading in order though personally. I’m definitely looking forward to more from this author!

This is the third book in the Waterfyre Rising Series. Even though it is part of a series these books can be read as a standalone as the main story focuses on individual couples. One thing i love about this series is that author attention to detail and character building. Her characters have so much depth and back stories that you can’t help be captivated by their story and how it unfolds
In this story we meet Grayson and Natalie.
Grayson has had a tough upbringing after witnessing a murder with his friends and then suffering more lies and betrayal in his family he has grown to become a man who trusts no one and allows no one to get to close to him. Relationships aren’t something he does as he loses interest too quick that is until he meets Natalie. Natalie is quick witted, she had a spark about her and she’s not afraid to bite back which makes her interesting to Grayson. Shes not like other women.
Natalie however, isn’t all she seems to be. She too is hiding secrets and lies revolving her family which is she on the hunt to find the truth too. The last thing she needs is to get distracted by a man. Especially a man that makes her blood boil as much as Greyson does. Why does he have this effect on her? Why does she allow him to possess so much control over her feelings?
This is a steamy enemies to lovers romance story which will keep the reader gripped till the end. As secrets start to be unraveled between them and their closeness grows will Natalie be able to break down the wall around Greysons heart or are they both too damaged to be able to fixed the damage they have already suffered?

I was very very excited for this story! I LOvE this series and could not wait to dive into this one. Sadly I did not love it. Oh there are scenes that were excellent but for way too much of the book there were too many repeated inner thoughts of the two main characters. I actually ended up flipping pages and could go 3-4 before I started reading again so I could pass repeated info. The beginning was good, the chase was good and the ending was great. All the rest I could have done without and enjoyed a shorter more condensed, more exciting read.
With that being said there were parts I loved. All the angle references were extremely cute. The bantering leading to that first kiss!?! Soo Sexy! His sensual attack on her senses during the bet would be hard to pass up. The time spent with his friends and her friends and when he worked on the game among others. The characters were fun to watch and learn about as are the secrets.
Overall this is just above an okay story for me. I LOVED the first two in the series and was expecting the same here. It is a good story but I am just sad about it. I am hoping the next gets back up to snuff.

Once again this can be read as a standalone but is the 3rd book in the WaterFyre series. TW: Kidnapping, abuse, mentions of human trafficking/close calls
I just love the men in this series. I am so happy to finally have Grayson’s story, the wonderful architect. He is still struggling with the betrayal from the last book he has built some impenetrable walls around himself. His friends and family are trying to help but he has dived head-first into work and isn’t coming up for air. That is until he runs into Natalie. At the time Natalie is working a city job, trying to find answers to save her families legacy back home. They go back and forth at each other till the tension between them just SNAPS.
Enemies to lovers with suspense, heartbreak, and full of action! Can’t wait for The Inquisitor.

Grayson is stuck in a cycle of mistrust and work, when his Uncle betrayed the family he did not think he would survive the personal struggle which occurs from such a great betrayal but as he tries to purpose his project unexpectedly he meets someone who challenges him and does not back away from the alpha billionaire.
Natalie wants answers, her father died in mysterious circumstances and when a letter arrived saying she own a piece of real estate that her father had willed her she tries to seek information and why he would have done this. While on her adventures she is confronted with a man who stirs something inside and seems to have some more information regarding her property, the only problem he needs it as part of his project and she is hiding the fact she owns it, will this set of sparks of anger or are they both showing feelings of something more.
This the third book in this series and they only get better the more you read on, all the books can be read as stand alone books as there is only a small thread of background which runs through each character. I loved the chemistry which jumps off the page relating to Natalie and Grayson, with also the fact they are both hiding a secret in there past just adds to the overall arc of the story.
The story was well written and draws you in with the twists and turns as you delve further into the story on the page. It was also lovely to see the relationship between these two characters blossom in too respect and love in the end. With Grayson, understanding the relationship between his uncle and why this is such a betrayal that he had to try and understand and piece himself back together was brilliant to read.
I definitely can’t wait for the next instalment of this wonderful series.

Hands down one of my favorite series’….The Innovator is book 3 of the WaterFyre Rising and I absolutely LOVED Grayson and Natalie’s story. I highly recommend reading this series from the beginning as the characters and stories intertwine. I can say I loved each book so far and the author does not disappoint with book 3.
Enemies to lovers….Grayson and Natalie are that…while Grayson is all business, focused and determined to succeed in all his projects, Natalie thinks that he is rude and arrogant. When a project puts Grayson and Natalie together to work as a team, it was a bit rocky at first. Both Grayson and Natalie have their own “secrets” and truly darkness overshadows their heart. When Grayson and Natalie finally get to know each other more of their truths….the walls around their hearts start to crumble. Sparks and hot sizzling moments along with intelligent and intellectual conversations, there is more to Grayson and Natalie than meets the eye. They both fall for each other, but when both of their pasts comes back to haunt them, will Grayson be able to protect Natalie when she needs him the most or will he self sabotage and push her away……
Definitely read and find out. This story is FANTASTIC!!!!!! If you love hot romance, drama with a twist of banter and suspense, I would HIGHLY recommend this series!! I am totally anticipating book 4!!

4.5 stars There is a caution with this book as it contains sexual content, profanity, and violence. Recommended for 18+. I was happy to see the next book was out so jumped right in. The Innovator is the third book in the WaterFyre Rising series. It is a forced proximity enemies to lovers tale. Even though this is the third book in the series each book can be read as standalones. This contemporary romance is a suspenseful tale with danger and dark secrets that may just destroy it all. Gray was burned before and it is still leaving a bitter taste with him. He is safe from heartache as he has built walls around his heart with reinforced steel. Or so he thought. Nat is out to save her family’s legacy but wonders if it is all worth it when you are working with an arrogant SOB. When tensions are at breaking point she discovers much more than she thought she would find. However, when danger comes calling who will help her? I look forward to what comes next from Nadia.

This is a great book in to add to this series and is really worth the read. I would highly recommend reading the other book sin the series as I honestly think it would add to the overall enjoyment of the book. The characters in this book are complex and interesting, they both have some much going on and yet they just seem to work together perfectly. The overall pace of the book is well done. The author knows how to move the story along and keep you invested in what is happening. I wanted to find out how these characters would make it work and I wanted to know more about them. This was an enjoyable book that I would recommend.

Natalie Chapelle is more than she appears. Natalie is working for the city of Providence, trying to learn information about a building that her father left to her when he passed away, though she is not sure why he would have done so. What Natalie hopes nobody figures out is that the background that got her the job is all a lie, and she is really the heir and designer for a major fashion label in Europe, a family owned company called LaRue. When Natalie first meets Grayson Wu, an architect that is helping the city with a new project, sparks fly as the battle of wills and tempers begins nearly immediately. Both are attracted to one another, but it’s not until they are parent trapped into spending time alone together in a secluded location that they finally allow themselves to give into the lust they feel. Both of them are dealing with a lot of stress and pressure outside of the project they are working together on for the city, but they start a relationship that helps them to both feel more grounded and happy than they have in a long time. When Grayson’s outside business becomes more dangerous, he pushes her away to try and protect her, going as far as sending her back to Paris and her family (with some help) to try and protect her. Once the danger has passed, Grayson hopes to be able to convince Natalie to forgive him. This is a good quick read. It is part of a series, but can be read as a standalone, with plenty of sex and intrigue to keep you reading.

Multi-layered romance This is book 3 in the Waterfyre Rising series and a worthy addition. Each books adds another element to the complexity that is Waterfyre. Grayson and Natalie are very strong characters, each with their own issues they need to face. The forced proximity, enemy to lovers aspect is woven into the suspenseful mystery storyline really well. I enjoy this author’s writing style and even though this can be read as a stand-alone, it’s really adds to the experience having read the previous two books. Highly recommend.

I didn’t think there could be more action in the Waterfyre Rising Series but Nadia Han sure found some. I appreciated this story a lot more than the first of the series. I love how Royce and Michelle come together and fall so quickly while fighting their life’s obstacles.

There is a lot being told in this story and the first few chapters will throw you around and you’ll have a lapse of being lost but if you keep going you’ll catch up quick. A fun romantic but suspenseful love story between a brother’s best friend and the little sister. I really enjoyed the story when I caught up. I can’t wait to read about the following love stories of the Waterfyre Rising Series.

I’m so glad Nadia finally wrote a story for Grayson. He has been a favorite of mine since book one. It’s good to see him finally get life together and release some of the stress. I loved Natalie as well. Great book. Can’t wait to get the fourth book in this series.

Grayson Wu is a phenomenal architect that has built a huge wall around his heart because of the betrayal from his uncle. Natalie took a city job to try to find out her recently deceased fathers secrets. Why did he buy this building? Did he have a secret life from her and her mother? Greyson wants the building Natalie is trying so hard to find out it’s secrets. Their paths cross both trying to find out more information on the building. Natalie can’t figure out why she hates him but wants him at the same time. Grayson can’t seem to stay away from Natalie. This is part of a series but you can read it as a stand alone and you wouldn’t be lost

This is the third book in this series which I enjoyed just as much as the previous three. I highly suggest reading the previous book in this series as it will help with your enjoyment of this series. I found this book to be well developed and full of romance. I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into the story from the beginning. They are strong, supportive, engaging and added too much to the enjoyment of this series. A story where you feel hate and love for someone at the same time, if that is possible. The attraction and chemistry between the characters is great. I enjoyed watching their growth throughout which added to the entertainment of the story. You don’t want to miss what happens with these characters. I highly recommend this book.

‘The Innovator’ is the third book in the fantastic ‘WaterFyre Rising’ series by Nadia Han. I love the way this series is building on itself. Even though each book has its own story and couple, all the books combined help to build a much bigger picture, giving us more morsels of information on the characters, backstories, arching storyline, and Waterfyre. The whole Waterfyre element is what really hooked me into the series in the first place, then add in some really intriguing characters and exciting storylines makes this series stands out from the crowd. Since diving into book one and developing a taste for Nadia Hans work, I look forward to each new release to find out what she has in store for us (and the characters). Each new instalment slightly eclipses the previous one, which is proof, in my eyes, of a talented author. This instalment is a bit of an enemies-to-lovers contemporary romantic suspense. A billionaire romance with drama, angst, tension, chemistry, sizzle, secrets, forced proximity, and contains sensitive topics/potential triggers for some readers (swearing, violence, the mention of suicide, grief, abuse, and eating disorders). The story was a little slow to build momentum – but as the story progressed and the pace picked up- especially with all the added angst, sizzle, drama, and suspense unfolding, definitely grabbed my attention and held it right through till the end. Looking forward to The Inquisitor’ (Book #4), it’s set to be even better yet… Happy Reading!

Natalie and Grayson know of eachother because Natalie’s new besties are Grayson’s sister and her friends.
Natalie has come to the US for answers. She doesn’t need to work. She’s a very wealthy woman but she’s doing this under the radar to find out answers. Her fathers plane went down and she found out her father purchased a building for her. The building just so happens to be one Grayson is trying to buy for his latest project.
Natalie and Grayson have been in contact thru email / phone calls and Grayson has been giving her the brush off. These two have ridiculous chemistry and they both know it. When they realize it, they make a deal. Whomever loses, steps back from what they want with the project. When they end up in a retreat with just the two of them, Natalie has a plan….will it work or will Grayson Wu be stronger then she thinks.
There’s alot of suspense and danger looming ahead. Are they ready for what secrets are exposed or what danger is about to come?

Wow just Wow!! This amazing author never fails to entertain her readers with wonderful characters and creative, interesting storylines that keep you enthralled from start to finish. This book was yet again another fantastic read and continued this series in style. Natalie and Grayson are always chipping at each other whenever they are together but you just know there is so much passion fuelling that fire that once they realise that, you know the flames will be higher than ever. They build a strong bond even when danger is all around them. This is the third book in the WaterFyre Rising series but I feel it can be read and enjoyed without having read the previous two books. I do highly recommend reading them though simply because they are amazing and shouldn’t be missed.

The story of Grayson and Natalie is an intense one. You can feel the intensity build right from the start. He is set in his ways. She’s not too fond of him because he’s denying her. I loved the chemistry of these two throughout the book. I loved seeing familiar faces among the storyline. The book had me right from the beginning. I couldn’t put it down. Quite frankly, I can’t wait for book 4. I wan to see where this goes with the destruction of the Elite’s and how the guys get WaterFyre rising out. There’s so much to be answered and yet still so many secrets out there.

She is the irritation that turns his heart inside out.
Sharp, gorgeous, and skeptical, Grayson Wu is a top-notch architect who has built impenetrable walls around his unstable heart due to a betrayal he can’t soon forget. When an irritatingly beautiful woman threatens his foundation, he struggles to let her break down his barrier.
To resurrect his soul.
To reconstruct his heart.
To reset his life.
Determined, elegant, and versatile, Natalie Chapelle has courageously taken a city job well belowher pay grade to save her family’s legacy. Though adaptable, she finds it hardto work with the arrogant and innovative designer who makes her want and hate him at thesame time. When the tension between them snaps, she is tossed into this complex world, revealing more than she expected.
A man with more depth than the sea.
A mind more brilliant than the sun.
A lover more skillful than a surgeon.
As their romance builds, danger and dark secrets unfold that drive Grayson to sacrifice his heart in order to save the woman he loves.
