This book follows Holliday and Dalton. They meet in a bar while they are both in Vegas on business. Holliday is there at a convention and Dalton is there because the hotel hired him. They get talking and one thing leads to another and they end up in Dalton’s room. “I want to spend some time with you privately.”After many up and down’s in the evening in Dalton’s hotel room, he gets a call and has to leave for business, leaving Holli angry. He makes an effort to make things right with Holli, as he seems to really like her. But he is a little closed off, there is something that he is hiding. They try to see each other as much as they can before Holli has to leave Vegas. Agreeing to meet the next night, Holli finally finds out what it was that Dalton was hiding. “I want you to know where I am. I have your number and now you have mine. I don’t want us to end tonight.”Dalton and Holliday don’t have a normal relationship, as they are both busy with work and Dalton is hardly ever where she is. He does the romantic things off dropping in on a surprise for a day or 2. And they spend most of this time holed up in the comfort of each other. “I’ve been in this business long enough to know how things play out, you might just be a game changer.”Dalton is a very jealous person and even the slightest most innocent thing sends him into a different person, I don’t like this side of him and neither does Holli. She doesn’t seem willing to put up with it and he has to do a lot to make it up to her.In the book we get to meet many of the people closest to Dalton and Holliday. We meet Tracy, who works with Holliday and is also a really good friend of hers, she is the person that Holli confides in. We meet Rochelle and Cory, Cory works with Dalton and Rochelle is his girlfriend. They are a great couple and Rochelle becomes a good friend to Holli. When tragedy strikes we see them all try to hold each other together, but that’s not what happens with Dalton and Holli. They seem to drift further apart, as Holli tries to be there for him but not lose herself in him.We follow them as they fight to survive with each other or apart from each other. The ending for me was how it should be, there was no cliff-hanger, and everything that in my opinion should have happened did. So well done S L Scott on another fantastic read.Stacey
