I love it when a book keeps your focus and gets you so engrossed with the characters, that you are still left thinking about them long after finishing the book, now that's what I call capturing your audience! This is a great story by the new talented author Ghiselle St.James. So we follow the story of South and Collin, both who grew up witnessing domestic violence in their respective homes, and when drama ensued South would run to her best friend Conner's house, and creep into Collin's bedroom his older brother, as a means of escape and harm, a guy who could make the pain bearable and made her heart race lol! I loved South and Collin together as I felt their chemistry. One night together changed their friendship forever and South's disappearance haunted Collin's thoughts and dreams everyday thereafter. Ten years later we catch up with Collin and see where life has taken him. I have to say I loved hanging out with his bro's, the guys were just hilarious, Luke and Conner were my favourite, the banter and ribbing between these guys was just so cute, you could feel how deeply they valued their close friendship. I loved the scene where Collin and South see each for the first time after ten years, and how they still evoked intense feelings and desires within each other, albeit with obstacles standing in the way of them to love each other freely. South's sexy pole dancing had my attention and I pictured her sexy moves, the girl can sure dance! As they catch up with their lives, South goes to show Collin how she has grown into a beautiful woman and intent to claim him, whilst Collin's conscience eats at him, finding himself unable to get out of his predicament with Kaylee his fiancée without facing dire consequences, but Collin’s jealousy sees him accept where his future truly lies with a little help from his bro’s lol. I loved the epilogue, this book just had me smiling and laughing throughout, I have to say this author has a comical flare to her writing which didn't overshadow the romance element, a fun read, I can't wait to read Luke and Lydia's story eek! I would also love to see Connor's story hint hint lol!
