It's not until Tru finds herself in a bad situation that the sexy stranger starts revealing more about his life and it's a lot more complicated than Tru could've known.

Huge nope from me. I’ve read and enjoyed other books from this author but this one was a no from the start for me. I just found the writing (and the h) immature and ridiculous. Constant references to “the wolf” and conversations with her friend/coworker that were so beyond stupid I could not even believe these ladies were supposed to be adults?!

Loved it!! I haven’t read this author in a while but I loved the writing, the pace, the characters, the storyline...everything was on point. Liam is a possessive, alpha hero and Tru was the kind of heroine I love to read about. She was smart, sassy and had a backbone. This book was remarkable and I’m so glad I read it!!
