Jackie Ashenden is a new author for me. I picked this up on the netgalley review site and enjoyed it so much that I went on to read the two books that preceded this one about the other two brothers.Sean returns to town at the request of his brothers to help out with some negotiations they have with a builder. The builder himself turns out to be a surprise, but I'll leave that to you to find out. I am hoping, though, that there's also a book about him coming out soon.Abby and Sean have a past; they were friends growing up, helping each other out because both their families treated them badly. But after one time being intimate together, Sean leaves town, his family, and Abby, and he joins up with a motorcycle club, ultimately serving as their enforcer.Once Abby and Sean reconnect, the sex is hot, and both give each other what they need. And Sean is the epitome of a bad boy."He'd always had a smoldering bad-boy look to him, even back when he'd been eighteen, but with the short sleeves of his T-shirt revealing tattooed biceps, and that slashing scar and broken nose, at twenty-three, he was the every definition of a sexy, dangerous, bad man."I wouldn't call this an erotic book, per se, because the storyline is so strong, but the main characters do connect in a satisfactorily way with lots of heat."...he preferred his sex hard and rough. There was something satisfying in the violence of it, in the same way that beating the s*** out of someone was satisfying. An outlet for anger and frustration. And he always chose women who liked it like that, women who could handle it. Who wanted it."Although the book was short, Ashenden definitely tells a fully developed story that fully resolves itself by the end. And both characters help each other stop running from their pasts, their futures, and each other.
