Needing Her, by Molly McAdams, was absolutely fantastic!  From the cover to the amazing characters within to the perfectly executed plot, I was hooked.  With every new book released, I fall more and more in love with this author and the amazing stories that she so expertly delivers.After meeting Connor in From Ashes, I knew that I wanted, and needed, his story.  Even though his character was a secondary one, he commanded the page with his strong presence and need to protect.  He completely fascinated me and I wanted more.After growing up in an extremely abusive home, Connor is terrified that he will become like the man that abused him.  His fear consumes him and he struggles everyday to cope.  After losing, what he perceives as his one chance at happiness, he completely withdraws.  Then his best friends little sister brightens his world, chasing away every single dark shadow with her beautiful light.Maci has been in love with Connor for as long as she can remember, but he has never felt the same.  Her brothers refuse to let her have a relationship with anyone, much less their friend.  She wants the ability to live her life without having every single move she makes be scrutinized by her brothers.  Their overprotectiveness is slowly suffocating her and she desperately needs to be seen as a person, not just their little sister.  When Connor finally sees her as something other than `Mini', he changes her entire world.I absolutely adored Connor and Maci together!  Their pranks, their banter and the love that shown between them, were endearing and completely realistic.  Maci had a fiery independent personality that had me girl crushing on her within seconds of being introduced.  Connor was just 100% pure  yummy alpha male whose bad***ness roared off the page and straight into my heart.  And don't even get me started on her brothers!  Even though they could be complete jerks, I was definitely intrigued by them and would love to have their stories, especially the twins ;)Overall, if you are a fan of Molly McAdams work, Needing Her is a must read.  If you haven't had the pleasure of reading Ms. McAdams work, what the hell are you waiting for?  Her books are absolute MUST READS!  Ask no further questions, just purchase them immediately because I promise, you will not be disappointed.  Hands down, she is my favorite new go to author and I devour every single thing she writes. Her writing is perfection wrapped up in a case full of tissues.  Her stories are real, they are extremely emotional and they will stay with you long after the last word has been read.
