This is my first Alla Kar read, and most definitely won't be my last! This NA read centers around two characters who have suffered through one of the most horrific tragedies one can imagine: their plane goes down. I'm not a happy flyer myself, so the scene where the aircraft went down was especially intense for me, lol! I felt the aftermath of the crash was well-written and believable, and the angst and longing the two main characters suffered, heartbreaking.Let's talk about the characters. I fell in love with Beau right away. I love me a strong, self-assured "Bad Boy", and Beau fit the bill perfectly. I melted every time he referred to Bella as "Dove", and I loved how alpha and protective he was when it came to her. Definite book boyfriend material, peeps! And did you all see his likeness on the cover? DAYUM!My heart ached for poor Bella, who spent the majority of the story battling her feelings. Haunted by a heaping case of guilt, she's plagued with nightmares, and walks around in a perpetual state of numbness, refusing to accept the love Beau openly tries to give her.I felt Beau and Bella's story arch was well-done, and it was tied up nice and neat at the end with a HEA that left me satisfied. The supporting characters rounded out the story nicely. I'm a big fan of Taborie. I felt he added some much needed wisdom and support with the way he related to both the main characters.If you're a fan of NA and enjoy a good romance with angst and suspense, then this book is for you. Good stuff!
