First Thoughts:I’m really enjoying this series, I love how the couple is never perfect and they both have some serious issues that they need to figure out on their own as well as together. Each book is written beautifully and I have trouble putting it down for things like sleep (who needs sleep anyways right?)The Story:This is Robin’s story, we have seen her a few times and gotten little bits and pieces about her in the previous books, but this book delves much deeper then the surface and you really get to see that although she pretends everything is good, everything is anything but good.The Characters:Robin – I really liked Robin, she was very down to earth and although she made a terrible mistake and may have handled the fallout horribly, as soon as it happened she acknowledged that she may have a problem and tried to deal with it. Was it the right way to deal? No definitely not but when it all came to a head she finally owned up to everything the way she should have in the beginning, from telling the truth, to seeking the help really needed. For that I loved her, it takes a strong person to be able to do that!Phoenix – Phoenix was a very complex character, he had some serious issues, being in jail only the tip of the iceberg… but he was also super sweet underneath. He was fiercely loyal and protected everyone he cared about regardless of the circumstances. He is a very likable character, even when he was being an ass.Final Thoughts:As with Riley in Sweet, I was hoping for a bit more edge from Pheonix, but I am beginning to think that the men in this series do not fit the typical ‘bad boy’ persona. They look tough, but they aren’t really. Which although disappointing is ok. They are just so sweet and perfect once they figure there issues out. Another great book from Erin McCarthy, and with the way this one ended I am SUPER excited for Kylie’s story!
