I can't decide between 3 1/2 stars or 4 so I'm ging with four.We met Jack and Payton in book one Wilde Ride and I was anticipating this book once I finished book one but I have to say it wasn't all I was hoping for. Jack was an undercover cop and Payton and Jack met while he was undercover, once Payton found out that Jack had lied to her she cut him out of her life. Payton was never the type to fall for a guy or want more than just one night but with Jack she did. Now one year later Payton has moved to the town she met Jack and she soon runs into Jack. Jack and Payton have both tried to move on and they both have failed. So Jack decides he won't give up on Payton they had something special. But Payton knows she has to prove to Jack that she has moved on so Payton asks a friend to act like her boyfriend why getting the benefits, but Payton doesn't really know her friend and when Payton's put in danger Jack is their to pick up the pieces and convince Payton they were made for on another.Trying to move forward is harder for Payton than most, she has a secret she has kept at all costs to protect those she loves and that secret has formed who she has become. When someone from her past crashes with her present Payton knows that keeping her secret has put someone she loves in danger and its time she share her secret. While Jack stands by Payton jack has to learn how to move past the loss of someone he used to love and open himself up to a new love her never could have imagined. I liked this book but had a hard time getting into Meagan Lynn Moores writing style, with that being said I see great potential and the story was good so I'm hoping she continues to grow as an author with the books she writes. I had a really hard time in the beginning of this book relating to Payton and being ok with her actions but when I found out about her past and the extant of her past it was easier to see where she was coming from and empathize with her. I loved Jack and thought he was a great hero, he was crazy about Payton and wanted her no matter what.The ending of this book was great and I'm a sucker for and epilogue so I was very happy that this book had such a great epilogue. I also really liked that we got to see not only the progression of Jack and Payton's relationship but of Payton herself. I also loved that we got to see the characters in book one and how they are doing now. I'll be reading book three because I'm really interested in the characters in book three, we are given just enough to want more.
