I wasn't real sure how into Kia Clementine I would get....kinda thought her a lightweight.....fluffy.  Once her story unfolds however.....understanding comes to the patient reader.  She's had a horrendous marriage - wasted ten years with a louse.Enter, events that free Kia Clementine.  Through those events she meets-up with Sampson Cooper (Sam).  It's like a fairy-tale come true - at least it is so until Sampson's demons keep him from opening himself to Kia.  At the same time it is Kia who is unraveling due to her past catching up with her psyche.  She's fighting for her own mental well being while Sam is coming apart.This is a very dramatic story.  It has romance.  It has plenty of the HOT stuff that Kristen Ashley thoughtfully writes for her characters.  Angst?  Oh yes......there be angst in this story.  It is a story that has the reader hoping/praying that it can all work out for the H/h.  As usual....wonderful side characters, as well.I'd recommend this story and in its own fashion it's as good if not better than MOTORCYCLE MAN (which I adore).  I'm hoping there will be more in this series (this is the only one so far.....?).  A book like this is so different than other KA books - this and PLAY IT SAFE (another really fine story).  These types of books prove the range Ms. Ashley has in her writing talents.  It is this type of book that sucks in the reader and doesn't release that interest until the final word is read......and then for days afterwards the reader is still considering all that went on in the story.Fantastic story.  Thank you dear authoress.
