This series is awesome it has Alpha heroes (my favorites and they are cops swoon), a unique but painful storyline, angst, heartache, great heroines, hilarity, and hot scenes. The story was more realistic and the bad guys were not evil villains just really messed up people making bad choices. I felt the characters were real and I teared up a lot but I also held my breath a lot. I could actually feel the emotion of each person.I loved Emma she was light to Caleb’s dark and as Caleb describes her she is a whirlwind. I know she felt guilt for not stepping in sooner with Sarah but I don’t know if it would have done any good to show for her any earlier. Sarah needed to hit rock bottom with her grief and guilt before she could be helped.“I’ve described you as a whirlwind from the very start, but that’s not true at all. Emmy, you are a natural disaster. You stormed in and stripped me bare. Say you’re going to stay and help me rebuild. Swear to me, this is it for you. Because it sure as h**l is for me.”Caleb seriously should have sought grief counseling years before. He was so messed up in his hatred for Sarah and his grief. I think if he could have talked to someone sooner he might have finally seen that he and Manda were doomed. I believed she loved him with her whole heart but what she wouldn’t give him would have torn them apart eventually. Caleb loves with everything in him and because he feels so deep he puts up blinders to all the issues in his life.“I loved her harder than any person should be allowed. If I’m being honest with myself, I still love her like that. It’s been almost five years and Manda Baker still owns my heart.”“My fingers glide over the indentation of her name. I hate this f*****g headstone, and not just because it has the date signifying the end of her life. I hate it because it says ‘Manda Baker.’ No matter how many times I see it, it always burns… Her headstone should read Jones. She was mine, and the entire world should know it.”I said with the last book I felt for Sarah. I knew there was more to the story with her and I am glad she got the help she needed before the truth came out. I am really hoping for a book for her and I think she deserves to find some happiness. It was a really screwed up hand she was dealt and I hate that for her.Oh and last note! The tattoo was freaking awesome but pay attention to the cover and the end pages and you can see the transformation of his tat. Very cool piece of the story and was nice to see if shown on the cover of the book.
