This is the third book in the Infinity Series. Do not proceed further if you have not read the first two. Immediately purchase the first two and start reading. What are you waiting for? Charlie and Colin’s story deserves to be read!Charlie is trying to adapt to Colin’s lifestyle, but she just doesn’t fit in. She has packed up and moved from Houston where she was forced out of her father’s medical practice. She and Colin now live together in Dallas in his ”McMansion.” Their “home” is his work place and Charlie has lost her sense of control and that is something that she needs otherwise she’ll resort back to her previous coping mechanisms.Colin is oblivious to the inner struggles that Charlie is dealing with. He knows that she has a need to be in control, but he doesn’t realize how difficult it has become for Charlie with his world taking over hers. Colin is very attentive when it comes to Charlie so when he realizes what is happening his biggest fear hits him.“...I’m losing her again.”Even though Colin comes across as an alpha male, he is still vulnerable to the intense pressure placed on him for securing a Super Bowl spot and his fears of losing Charlie. Some of my favorite scenes are of Colin just “being” where he has his inner thoughts to himself and Charlie is captivated on the side just watching him.Colin and Charlie are both strong independent individuals who seek control. They both need to be in control of a situation. There comes a time when control is taken away from both of them and it sends Colin down a road of self- loathing. Might as well kick Colin when he’s down…he’s dealt another blow to his esteem."I can’t believe this. This is me. I’m broken. Why didn’t I see it before? ... why have I dragged Charlie into this mess?"I consider the Infinity Series to be a hidden gem. It is beautifully written in dual points of view and will have you feeling warm and fuzzy when things are going well, and have you grabbing your stomach and wiping under your eyes during the rough spots. You cannot read it and not get caught up in their want for a happily ever after. Colin and Charlie’s story is not over yet. There is a fourth book due out in Spring 2014. There is no cliffhanger to this story, but there is more of their story to be told. Their story is beautiful, faced with real-life challenges of a famous athlete and daily struggles of a couple looking to their future.“There’s nothing in my life that I’ve wanted as much as this woman. I love her enough to give her the forever that she deserves. Charlie’s my infinity.”
