Shane is determined that he will make Kace his.Can Shane help Kace find the strength to finally leave Josh? Will he be able to win her over and capture her heart? Will Kace help Shane become aware of his demons and finally face them?Scott Hildreth knows how to reach inside you and leave you completely gutted and an emotional wreck. Then he slowly pieces you back together again. He will also make you laugh and turn you on by throwing in some humor and steamy sex scenes. I absolutely loved this book. I can relate to and understand Kace on so many levels. I love the fact that you get to really see into how both Shane and Kace  really feel with this story switching up the POVs. And you get a taste of Ripp as well. I look forward to getting to read his story. I must say I personally asked Scott on which of his books he recommends I start with, and he pointed me in the direction of Alpha Bet. I already had Undefeated after it had been recommended to me by a few people. So I decided I would start there. I can say I am a Scott Hildreth fan and I look forward to reading many more of his books. But for now I give Undefeated a Nerd Alert A or 5 stars!!
