When I saw this ARC book available on Netgallery I was ecstatic when I saw that is was an open read I almost peed my pants, I screamed and jump around like a crazy lady scaring my puppy and make my kids and husband sigh in despair because they know when I get like that there is a book that I want BADLEY (thank you Netgallery, Forever/Hachette Book Group and Kristen Ashley for my ARC copy) I devoured this book from the second I opened my kindle I didn't want to stop for food, family, or natural disasters. Jagged was well worth the wait, I love every book in this series so I couldn't wait to get Zara and Ham's story and crap was it soooooo worth the wait.Zara and Ham have known each other for years they had a brief relationship but Ham is a drifter, so when it was time for him to go he left. On occasions he would stop back in town and he and Zara would spend all their time together, when Zara was hurt or in pain Ham came but that was all he was willing to offer and though Zara wanted more she knew she at least wanted some of Ham till that just wasn't enough and Zara finally made a clean break. Now years have went by, when Ham was almost killed he and Zara reconnected but frustration silence and pain draw them apart.As they try to move on they find it isn't easy and get drawn back together but they will both have to fight to stay together and get past all of their past hurts, and Ham will have to be willing to trust Zara and trust that she will love him through it all. What can I say Kristen Ashley has done it again, she is without a doubt my all time most favorite author I wait for any book she has. I pre-order everything and stalk ( I mean watch) for new information all the time. I Loved Ham yes he was a jerk at times but I truly believed he was hurt and protecting himself at all costs and I also believed he loved Zara more than anyone else. Ham is in a long line of fantastic hero by Kristen Ashley and I know some can't get past his nickname but I have heard of way worse so it didn't bother me. I loved Zara she knew she was worth more, she was strong and loving and kind.This book is another book that I didn't want to start because I knew I would finish it way to quickly and then have to wait again but my love and need for all things Kristen Ashley prevented me from waiting( it's the barbie doll saga all over again, no matter how much I wanted to keep them in their pretty boxes and save them I found myself ripping into them within a few minutes so I could get my hands on them). Kristen Ashley's voice is one in a million she has a gift that many could never dream of.So the real question is would I buy this book? I got it for free (yippee) but would I be willing to purchase it or after getting a free copy would I still purchase it? And the answer to both of those questions is yes I pre-ordered this book the second (and I mean second) I saw it available and after getting my ARC copy I kept my pre-order now with it being right before it's release I will still be purchasing this book so that I can support and author that I love and have a final copy that I can re-read in the near future. Now sadly the waiting game begins again just like the circle of life I will wait for another KA book devour it review it read again and wait some more:}( ok maybe not the circle of life lol)
