Nash by Jay Crownover

Nash (The Marked Men, #4)

by Jay Crownover

The fourth book in the scorching hot NEW YORK TIMES bestselling MARKED MEN New Adult series

Nash Donovan, tattooist and good-time guy, never knew his father. Instead, he was brought up by his Uncle Phil, the best role model and mentor a guy could have. But when Phil is rushed to hospital and reveals he's at the end stages of lung cancer, he wants Nash to know the truth. Reeling from the family secret Phil has let slip, Nash needs something to hold on to - and the nurse with the beautiful grey eyes taking care of Phil seems remarkably familiar...

Saint Ford doesn't know what to think when Nash crashes back into her life. They went to school together what feels like a million years ago and although she feels - and looks - very different, she can't tell if Nash is still the same guy: the guy who teased and bullied her way back when and who she vowed never to forgive.

But Nash is impossible to stay away from. From his flame-tattooed head to his multiple piercings, and his all-round good guy attitude, he's unlike anyone Saint has ever known - does she still carry a flame for the first guy to steal her heart? And can she forgive him - and herself - for the mistakes of the past?

I swear this series gets better with every book! I guess this is Nash and Saint's story, but to me, it was really Nash's self discovery. He learned so much as his past, present and future. I loved taking this journey with him and watching the most sensitive Marked man (yet) grow and reveal his passion, ambitions , and heart of gold.

Saint was a very interesting match for Nash. She was slightly damaged with esteem issues. She was an odd choice, indeed, but we also saw her grow and change and emerge a butterfly ready to properly love our Nash. We also met a few new women -- Royal and Salem. Both seem like promising additions to the "family".

Be prepared to shed tears. I cried for three stretches during this book, both happy and sad tears. There are some tough moments and JCrownover did a great job conveying that emotion. I had some serious feels.

And finally, I loves these books, because, although you could read each as a stand-alone, if you read them in order, you get to check in and see how some our favorite couples are progressing, and I adore getting those extra peeks into their lives.
