The emotional and unforgettable new romance from the New York Times bestselling author of the On Dublin Street series.
Alexa Holland’s father was her hero—until her shocking discovery that her mother and she weren’t his only family. Ever since, Alexa has worked to turn her life in a different direction and forge her own identity outside of his terrible secrets. But when she meets a man who’s as damaged by her father’s mistakes as she is, Alexa must help him.
Caine Carraway wants nothing to do with Alexa’s efforts at redemption, but it’s not so easy to push her away. Determined to make her hate him, he brings her to the edge of her patience and waits for her to walk away. But his actions only draw them together and, despite the odds, they begin an intense and explosive affair.
Only Caine knows he can never be the white knight that Alexa has always longed for. And when they’re on the precipice of danger, he finds he’ll do anything to protect either one of them from being hurt again....
I was on the fence about reading this book. I am not a fan of erotica and I know Samantha Young writes mostly that. However, I decided to give the book a shot. I am glad I did. There are some explicit sex scenes, but I didn't feel it was excessive or anything. I wanted to punch Caine through most of the story. I loved Lexie though! There is some good suspense created beyond just the struggle between Caine and Lexie that made the book better for me (otherwise, it would have been all about the messed up relationship between these two and that would have just pissed me off!). So, overall, it was a bit more explicit than I usually read but it wasn't erotica (IMO) and while I found some of the relationship drama annoying, it wasn't a bad book! The end is great!
