***5 Stars***
This was a fun, quick read with a good amount of dark tossed into the mix and a great cast of characters that kept me turning the pages to see just what would happen next.
I adored Meribeth. She’s a ‘good’ girl in the eyes of the world because she toes the lines that her parents have drawn in the sand for her, but there is so much more to her. She has this depth and understanding of how ‘things’ are and knows how to work with what she’s given. Ramsey is all kinds of brutal, protective alpha AF male out for vengeance, and he definitely does a few questionable things, but there is vein of honor, loyalty and simple goodness that keeps him from totally tipping over the edge.
Their journey to their HEA definitely does not start off on the right foot, but as things progress they find themselves not only fascinated by each other, but realizing that they just may be perfect for each other on all levels and I couldn’t help but agree and I was definitely rooting for them even as their worlds were imploding around them.
This is my first read by the author and I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. The writing was engaging, the pace was a good one and I really liked the fact that this book packed a punch without a lot of unnecessary drama ~ of course there is a lot going on ~ but I liked how everything that happened either pushed the plot forward or the evolution of Meribeth, Ramsey and their relationship. As for the supporting cast of characters. I loved what they all brought to the table ~ good or bad ~ and there are a few I’d like more of, so I’ll keep an eye out for them as well as future books by the author in general.
