Just when you thought that the Bayonet Scars couldn't get any better or more intense, JC Emery comes back and shows you a thing or two or three. Every book makes me fall more and more in love with this storyline and characters! Its never dull, always keeps you guessing and plays on your emotions like a well tuned guitar (and if done by Ryan, Duke or Grady, I am perfectly fine with that)!Holly Mercer has been away from Fort Brag for a long while. She has just gotten her act together after some troubling times. Has a new place to live and a new job at Fort Brag High School, where the file of Cheyenne Grady falls into her lap and changes her life forever.She meets Cheyennes father Sterling Grady and finds herself in predicament after predicament, and in dangers way almost immediately after meeting him. She cant understand what she is doing, but when Grady is around she cant think straight, does things she normally wouldn't dream of doing. He has a way of getting deep under her skin."The best I can say is the man is so infuriating that he makes me lose my faculties when he is around and I end up doing the stupidest stuff I've ever done before"Grady has had a hard life, and is going through a lot at the moment. His daughter is acting out, best friend was killed, and they are still at war with the Mancuso family. The last thing he wants is any more responsibility and that includes love or being someones protector."I don't want to like her, and I don't want the complication of trying to insert her into my life"He finds he doesn't have a choice but to be around Holly when an incident occurs and has to take her under his protection. They find that they have this intense love/hate relationship. They argue and bicker and get on each others nerves. Then these growing feelings slowly take over and cause them to throw caution to the wind and just see where it goes."I want this, possibly more than I've wanted anything in a long time, and for just right now I'm going to let that be okay"As the situation gets more and more dangerous, Grady realizes that after all this is said and done, he may not be able to give Holly up. Can he let go of the past to make room for his future?"The more time that I spend with this woman, the more I want her, and the less I'm willing to accept that she wont let me have her"This book is fantastic, just as addicting as the two before it. It has a little bit of everything: action, suspense, sadness, humor, romance. She manages to make every charter member sexier and more alluring than the next. There are multiple parts in this book that I did not at all expect and was completely blown away - both of happiness and utter heartbreak."This is like falling into the best thing you didn't even know existed until you almost passed it by"There are a couple huge WTF moments, and found that I couldn't even be forced to put the book down. You get very easily attached to the characters and emotionally invested in their welfare. I'm eager to find out where the story goes and cannot wait till this girl gets her dirty little selfish hands on the next book!5 Fantastic Forsaken Stars
