My Review

 What a lovely heartwarming story of one girl running away from the man who is her worse nightmare to the man who could be her dream come true. It is pretty bad when you walk away leaving everything behind pick up a piece of junk car buy second hand clothes just to get away from those you thought loved you who let you down. One crazy ex who never liked you must less love you. All it takes is one action, one word and your whole world falls apart.

Alex's is on the run from anything and very thing she has ever known. All it took was one cheating ex and her estranged family to know she must find some peace. On the way her car breaks down when an overpowering man stops and gives her a lift. She made the mistake of going to his bar to eat where he pushes her to clean tables and serve his customers. JUST who does he think he is? One night he goes too far pushing her to the edge as she goes to his house to give him a piece of her mind only to find the most unexpected surprise of her life.

Zane would be any women’s dream man he might be a little pushy it is just his protectiveness coming out. He is a big bad biker dude who bought a bar when his mother needed him to come home. He has the heart of gold but NO BODY and I mean NO BODY messes with those he loves.

This author took my heart and handed it back to me with her writing style that took my breath away. She gives you the big bad man and turns him in to a softy that you just want to grab and take home to mother. Then comes along Alex who breaks your heart as you learn her story just how much does one person have to deal with before they break. Zane is about to find out when he blows his top cutting Alex to pieces with his words. Now he must fix it as he finds out just what caused her melt down. Can he find the words to melt her heart and make her give them the chance to find a HAE?

Just when you think you have a handle on the story the author throws in a twist that rips your heart out or makes you laugh and you think I sure wasn’t expecting that. Out of all the romances I have read I can’t think of two people who deserve to be together then these two. This was a story I could relate to when I was young I had a friend who married and after the baby came she found herself more or less in Alex shoes. I would have to say that is the most mind blowing thing a women can go through.

The author gives you a story with wonderful characters that will just about bring you to tears from their issues to their ending. I was so invested in this story I didn’t want it to end. The author gives you everything you come to expect from true romance: anger, hurt, lost souls, betrayal, secrets, a past, two hearts that beat as one to make this one of the best reads for 2016. The author put a lot of time and thought into writing this. I really doubt you could read this and not have it touch you. I know you will fall in love with the characters as much as I have. I laughed out loud, smiled, chuckled and was almost in tears throughout this outstanding story.

This was a highly entertaining read with an even pace as the characters learn about each other. It is filled with smiles, passion that will curl your toes. The first kiss really got to me how he made her feel special. When his secret comes out and he finds out what she was thinking I totally lost it laughing hard never saw that coming. When you find out Alex whole secret you want to cry for her again never saw that coming. This book is full of one surprise after another. I totally loved this story. You are so going to love this story and this author.
