Wow what a surprise for me when I started reading this book and could not put it down.  If you like an alpha-possessive, hot, willing to grovel male, then this is the book for you.  This is my first book by this author and I am so anxious to know if/when she will do another in the series.  Few books grab me like this one did and I would put it as the number 1 book for me in 2014.Dean and Amy both carry emotional baggage from their childhood and neither experienced loving, supportive parents.  At the beginning of the book, Amy is recovering from physical abuse and trying to learn to make better choices in relationships.  Dean is closed off emotionally and uses women for sex only.  The relationship develops slowly.  Amy is a strong woman and Dean fits the OTT alpha possessive male who, in the end, grovels to redeem himself and win back the love of "his woman", the love of his life.  Some readers will not like Dean's attitude and some of his behavior in the beginning of the book.  But he totally redeems himself and I loved the way the author developed the personal growth of both characters.  There is no cheating, although the author sets it up to appear for a time that Dean did cheat when he thought Amy had betrayed him.  At 50% of this book, I actually found myself reading slower because I did not want this book to end.  Oh yes, the sex scenes are hot and there's a light D/S going on.I hope the author is writing another book in this series and that maybe we will be Enrico and Sandra's story next.
