This was a hard book for me since I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it.The story, I felt was a slow build-up. I did not pick up for me until 35%.I did not read the first book in the series, but it did not make or take away from the story.  The author, I thought, did a good job providing the reader with a backstory. You can read this book as a standalone.Shelly was a great heroine. She was kind and did not hold resentment for the things that happened to her life.  She wanted to protect others and prevent them from going through the life she had lived as a call girl.Luke was the perfect man for Shelly.  He was protective and kind, just what she needed in her life when she really never had anyone. People just seemed to take from her.The author did a great job, peeling away the layers of the characters. We really got to know them."It wasn't really fair," he murmured. "I would recognize you no matter how you looked. I would find you anywhere. I haven't learned every secret of your body, but I know what's inside. I know you."I loved the theme of the story...falling in love and not judging a person by their background.
