Loved it

This book has many of the elements that I love. Its a strong story line, it's easy to get into and in some cases it will have you reflecting on your own life. I remember towards the end of the book that I was yelling and screaming, that's how excited I was.

Great New Author with a realistic Contemporary voice

I love Beth Andrews' natural and realistic style of writing. The story is one of redemption and healing from one's past. In this case, it's both the hero and heroine who have healing to do. The hero is of course wounded and needs the love of a good woman, but the heroine also needs to be saved. Although, usually, heroines who don't stand up for themselves do not make for a good read. But in this book, Nina starts out that way, but builds herself up a little at a time until she is fully standing on her own two feet against all comers. I rejoiced when she finally reached this point because I could see myself in her. Dillon, the hero, was of course hawttttt!!! His story of abuse and neglect and the need to save his sister from that situation was beautifully and poignantly told here. I fell in love!!! A happily ever after was had by all...
