Embry Jacobs is a broken but determined young woman starting law school.  A horrible relationship from her high school days still haunts her, so she intends to not let in any romantic distractions.  That goes out the window when she runs into “southern sexy” Luke Brody.  He’s perfect in every way, and Embry starts to let the walls down she’s fought so hard to keep up.  They make a strong connection, but Luke is hiding something.As sexy and confident as Luke was, when it came to Embry, he totally followed her lead.  Embry tries so hard to do the right thing, but he doesn’t want to be pushed away.  He’s hurt and angry because all he wants is Embry, and she is so affected by him she can’t really stay gone for too long.  Between their longing from afar, the toe curling sex scenes, and the possessive alpha ways that Embry brings out in Luke, their forbidden romance is an intense and emotional roller coaster.Embry was a great character.  Scared and broken, but strong.  Luke was of course wonderful, gorgeous and smart - a really good guy at heart who just wants to love Embry.  In every scene, their connection was real and electric.The ending and epilogue left me very impatiently waiting for the next book. (Very VERY impatiently).This was a well written and fantastic debut from R.E. Hunter and I can’t wait for more of this series.
