This was a good read about two people with issues due to their backgrounds who find they actually make each other whole.Dean Chambray is deep undercover as a crime boss, but his lifestyle is to be a love them and leave them kind of guy. Each girl gets one night, maybe two, if she doesn’t cling.But then he runs into Amy Copeland. Something about the big blonde appeals to him in ways he doesn’t understand. Her rejection of his advances makes him all the more keen to see her again. Once the two finally make connection, the interaction between them sets fire to the pages. They also learn that Amy’s background in the foster system then as a Vegas show girl mirrors Dean’s upbringing as the son of a drunken bitch.Little do they know that Dean’s job will threaten Amy and the future they are trying to create. Can they overcome their bleak pasts and the current threat to have an HEA?Both main characters were fun to meet. Dean is a bad boy, but he’s also overprotective Alpha. Amy is very strong, but susceptible to making bad choices. Their connection sizzles both in bed and out.Allyson Young’s books tend strongly to pathos and this offering is no different, but the exploration of the psyche’s of the two characters makes the emotional roller coaster well worth the effort of reading it.Review copy provided for an honest review.
