*****5 Stars*****
The story starts out with 21 year old Bess, who after struggling with the memories of her childhood, turned to drink and drugs, anything she could get her hands on, in a way to try and forget. She got dragged to a yoga class by her friend Camper, and disaster happens when she collapses. Hopefully this will be the wakeup call she needs?
Lane was an up and coming CEO who was always fixing his brother Jake's mess, and is less than impressed when he gives in again and does Jake a favour at the gym that he owns and ends up having to deal with a young woman who literally collapses at his feet.
Four years later, Lane meets Bess again but she has no idea who he is, she doesn't remember a thing about the night she almost died.
I absolutely loved this book! I have read the authors other books, Electrified and Smouldered which are both very good but this is easily my favourite.
Lane and Bess with both dealing with the troubled childhood they both had, but in very different ways.
I was gripped to the story all the way through and it was packed with twists and a few shocks!
The story is written in multiple POV which I love! I feel that you get to know the characters a bit more and get to know their thoughts and feelings of each of them.
I can't wait for Absolution Road to be released, although Lane and Jake are brothers it's clear that they are very different and I'm looking forward to finding out how much in Jake's story.
Blurb:
Sometimes the past bleeds into the future.
Bess, a wild party girl running from herself, literally falls victim to her demons when she collapses in the most unexpected of places.
Lane, a tightly wound, up-and-coming CEO who can’t seem to stop enabling his brother, doesn’t know what hit him when Bess falls at his feet and into his life.
It was a night she doesn’t remember, and one he can’t forget.
But rather than stay and help the needy college coed, Lane decides to teach his brother a long overdue lesson––a decision that later comes back to haunt him and only adds fury to the transgressions of his past he is already fleeing from.
Years later, Bess and Lane meet again. She doesn’t know him, and he doesn’t share that he knows what happened on that ill-fated night when she almost died. After all, he has a web of complicated lies from his own youth to protect.
Both are seeking salvation in the arms of others and ignoring the truth—that the only road to redemption lies in confronting your past.
When the past and present collide, is there any chance at redemption?
