Vanessa
Carmichael will never forget that horrible day for as long as she lives. With
Zane fully on the mend from the brutal attack he suffered right in her very own
yard, she knows she should be grateful, which she is. She also knows that
walking away from Zane might be the only way to keep him safe. Despite her
denial, V knows she can’t trust her own heart, especially when it comes to the
youngest Walker brother, but he’s not the kind of man who will walk away when
there is something he wants. He wants her even if it isn’t safe for him, and
she’s not sure she is strong enough to walk away.
Zane Walker
might have been brutally attacked and after months in the hospital, walked away
with his life spared, but now that he’s out of the hospital, he has only one
goal in mind. Getting the girl. From the first time he kissed her, Zane knew V
was the one for him. He also knew that getting her wasn’t going to be as easy
as he hoped. She’s stubborn and the walls she has erected around her heart are
nearly impenetrable. However, there’s one thing about Zane – he never gives up.
And he’s not about to start now.
Can V learn
to open her heart to the one man who is desperate to get past those walls she
has erected, or will she walk away to protect him? How long will Zane allow her
to deny what he knows is growing between them? Or is the only option to obscure
the underlying emotions with spine tingling lust?
When V and
Zane come together, smoke detectors go on the fritz, but when they bring Zane’s
best friend Beau into the mix, extra fire extinguishers are needed.
So Edward left me suffering from a minor heart attack at the
very end of Kaleb involving Zane
getting the snot beat out of him while V watched it all go down from her front
door. During the entire prologue and
first chapter, I couldn’t breathe while reading. I just needed to absorb everything that was
going down; I needed to know that Zane was going to be okay and that their
relationship was going to be stronger.
But that didn’t happen right off the bat and this is why I loved this
book. Zane wants nothing but V but V is
terrified that being with Zane will get him hurt again, so she backs off. They
struggle with their relationship because when they are together it is hot and
intense, however V has a hard time accepting her feelings for Zane because of
her fear and her past, this causes a strain on both the main characters…you
know I love me some drama!
It was great to read how Zane was willing to do anything to get
her back. He helped her work through her
panic attacks, he made her feel loved, he protected her, and he brought in his
best friend Beau, um, yeah…nice!
Edward sure knows how to write the Walker boys and make me love
them.
