TRIGGER WARNING: THIS STORY DEALS WITH ISSUES OF CHILD AND SEXUAL ABUSESwagger is told in 1st person perspective from both Cruz’s and Roxie’s POV, and it works! If you are going to tell a story in 1st person, then you must stay in 1st person throughout, and the author pulls this off brilliantly. Cruz and Roxie are two broken individuals who met and fell “in like” as teenagers, but were ripped apart before they had a chance to get to know one another and develop a real relationship.Flash forward 9 years later, and Cruz is back and to claim what’s his: Roxie! Both Cruz and Roxie suffer from some deep-seeded issues brought on by their parents. What I loved most about this story is they were both upfront with one another in admitting that they had issues even though it took them time throughout the course of the story for them to reveal what those issues were and begin to work on them so they could find happiness as a couple. This wasn’t a game of hide and seek and let me lie about my past because I’m afraid I may lose him/her, but it was a progression of two adults getting to know one another, developing trust, and ultimately growing to love one another. There were intimate scenes, but they weren’t gratuitous. They were about a coming together of two soul mates who desperately needed the love and support of the other person. There’s also a touch of suspense for those who enjoy a little mystery.If you’re looking for a read with tender romance, second chances, and a happy ending, then this is the book for you.
