Please read book 1 Laying a Foundation and book 2 Tearing Down Walls so you won't get lost in book 3!! All three are amazing stories and I just don't think you can fully understand Renovating a Heart without the background of books one and two.The Love Under Construction series is probably one of my favorite series ever, definitely in my top 5. Renovating a Heart did the impossible and topped the last book.Renovating a Heart is Steve's story. While he wasn't one of my favorite characters, he made me love him. Steve always seem a bit cold to me, lawyer by day, owner of a Eden's Gate,BDSM club by night. He seems to take subs short term and move onto the next, never building strong relationships with anyone other than with Tony.We learn about his past, what made him the way he is and what he truly wants out of life, that he doesn't think he can have what he wants.We met Kelly in book 2. She's the quiet widow who lost the love of her life but somehow still keeps faith that she can somehow be just as fulfilled once again. Kelly visit's Eden's Gate and meets Steve who offers her the same short term contract as his other subs. Only Steve finds himself wanting more than just 30 days to be Kelly's Dom.Kelly struggles with her relationship with Steve, she knows it's short term, nothing more than another contract to him, but she's falling for him. Steve pushes her like her husband never did, she's not sure she can handle Steve's methods and one night things go wrong, Kelly is hurt and runs from Steve.Steve realizes what he's done, he also realizes she's the one woman he can't live without, but now that he's broken the trust they had can either of them recover?Another very well written, five star book in this series. There's something about these books that draw you in and keep you there and make you fall in love with the characters and stories.
