My Review:
****4 Stars!
This is a fantastic Debut novel from Kinsey Taylor.
The Main characters..
Ashlynn, she was
adorable and melted my heart.
Kennedy, she didn’t come across as a strong person, I found
her a little whiny at times, but to overcome what she did she had to be
extremely strong willed, and she grew on me.
Corbin……..mmm, yes please!! He was so nice. He came across as this strong
Fighter but in reality he has just as many demons as Kennedy and is struggling
to deal with them.
I love the relationship between Corbin and Kennedy and the
way Corbin is with Ashlynn is beautiful.
I would recommend this book and I hope to see other books
for the secondary characters. Please?!
Excerpt:
Through clenched teeth he demandingly asks, “Did you think I wouldn’t notice? You were eye-fucking the dude across the table from your brother, Kennedy. You cheating on me, whore?”
“Don’t be ridiculous, Troy. I was looking at him listening to him talk,” I whisper.
“Bullshit, Kennedy.”
Just then, the atmosphere changes, goose bumps spread covering every part of my body. No! Not now! Not here! Glancing over my shoulder, I spot Corbin, his fists tightly clenched, moving in our direction.
“Is this guy bothering you?” he asks.
I shake my head no, and plead with him using my eyes.
“Mind your own goddamn business, asshole. This is my wife, and we are having a discussion, so piss off,” Troy says.
“Then why, as her husband, do you have your hands forcefully placed on her? When did it become okay to talk that way to your wife?”
Troy whips around to fully face him, and I have to move fast to get myself wedged between the two of them. Troy moves against me pushing me back to face Corbin.
Placing my hands up I plead softly, “Tonight is my brother’s night, and I won’t have either of you ruining it. Please.”
“You don’t deserve to be treated like this,” Corbin says sternly looking up into Troy’s eyes.
