Yet again Melody captured me within the first few pages solidifying her Beachwood Bay series as one of my favorites! I loved Unbroken and I LOVEEEDDD Unafraid, it was an excellent story full of angst, drama, romance and steam. I find I get lost in Melody's stories.After a night three years prior neither one ever forgets, Hunter, who is now finished with college comes back to Beachwood Bay to take over his grandfathers horse ranch...and comes back determined to find Brittany and make her his for good.I'm going to make that girl see, she's the only one for me. My light, my heart, my everything. Forever.Hands down Hunter is one of the swooniest, non-bad boy yet dominating and sexy as all hell will make your heart flutter (amongst others things) guys out there. He gives Emerson a run for his money! Brittany is still the feisty, lovable, wild child we met in Unbroken who has hopes and dreams of becoming more, but, with no real experience or formal schooling rejection has become the norm for her. I have to say Brittany breaks my heart, when she talks about what she thinks or how how she feels about herself; she had me crying at times. She thinks she's completely un-worthy of someone loving her. Especially someone like Hunter, good looking, rich, and perfect, but what she doesn't know is Hunter isn't so perfect, he's got a secret of his own that has torn him apart everyday for the past three years. Get your tissues out when he finally reveals it to Brittany, then get yourself prepped for a cold shower ;-)Melody upped the angst in this one, parts left my heart beating a mile a minute while others had me chewing my cuticles. I can not say it enough how much I loved the chapters in Hunter's POV (I remember that was my only complaint in Unbroken, we had no bits in Emerson's POV) the writing was flawless, the internal thoughts where Hunter and Brittany were describing their feelings for each other was absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. The story was told at the perfect pace, nothing lagged and nothing was rushed; it was just right. This is a series I've recommended since the release of Unbroken and no one has been disappointed by it. Melody has become one of my "she can write the phone book and I'd read it authors" the writing gets better in each book and I can not wait to see what's next...I'm hoping there's a Garrett story up her sleeve *hint hint* *wink wink*
