Hayleigh
I know nothing of love.
Then again, I don’t know much about people
I’ve been burned enough to have lost my faith in them
Brannon seems to be an exception
For years, he has proved that I could trust him
But my past would surely drive him away
The question is, can he trust me?
Brannon
Hayleigh is not my fate
But, she is my destiny
I need to convince her to trust me, to believe in us
For years I’ve stood back, and given her time
Now I need her to light the dark that is slowly consuming me
I want to tell her all of my secrets
The question is, will she survive them?
~My Review~

I Was Provided A ARC By The Author
(Possible Spoilers)
Each book I fall more in love with this series, with this world and with these characters.
Hayleigh keeps to herself. She doesn't let many get to close. The little group of friends she does let close, still don't know a lot about her. She keeps secrets, worried her friends wont see her the same. She's been hurt to many times, to really let her guard down. But with Brannon she feels like maybe things could be different. That she could get close to someone and look forward to a future with them.
Brannon is loyal and protective of the ones he loves. He's goofy and sweet. And loves to have a good time. Tasked with a new job, he has to keep it a secret. No one knows what he is having to deal with day in and day out. The job is really taking a toll on him, draining him. Breaking him. The only happy part of his day is Hayleigh. He has cared about her for a long time, and when he gets a chance with her. He shows her that he will always be there for her. That he loves deeply and forever. He will work extra hard to make her see that.
I really loved every moment Brannon & Hayleigh shared. There was funny moments, extremely sexy moments, moments of pain, vulnerability, and so much love. Both Brannon and Hayleigh were great to read. Hayleigh is sweet, and broken, but strong and compassionate. But Brannon stole the show in this book. Brannon with a big heart and sweet words, is one dirty talking, alpha male. Holy S*** was Brannon a sexy beast. He made me blush. ;) Man oh Man do I LOVE him. The guys in this series are some of my favorite book boyfriends!
With the way Elle Christensen left the ending of this book, UGH I need the next one NOW!

Excerpt
“It doesn’t matter the reasons, Brannon. You want me to give you my trust, well, it goes both ways. You’ll just have to trust me when I say that I have boundaries and if you can’t be comfortable with them, then we can’t have anything at all.”
Oh, hell to the motherfucking no.
“Baby, you threw that option out the window when you showed up on my doorstep. I’m not letting you go, no more dancing around this. You’re mine. End of.”
Hayleigh’s eyes widen at my little speech, but then they narrow menacingly, her brows dropping deep over her frosty gaze. She opens her mouth to speak, but I keep her silent with a finger on her lips. I trail the finger down her silky cheek and then lower until I reach a nipple, then draw a circle around it. I can vaguely see it hardening through her shirt and when I brush across it, she gasps. I lean forward and place my lips on the shell of her ear. “You’re body agrees with me. I bet if I slipped my finger into your pussy, I’d find you drenched for me.”
I take the hand I’m holding and place it over my rock hard cock, then shift it up and splay her hand on my pounding heart, “And, I’m yours.”
Once again, I shut her down when she tries to talk, “No, baby.” I growl. Her eyes get big again at the rare gruff sound coming from me. “We’ve done this your way for four years. We are going to do it my way now. You don’t have to tell me everything right now. Eventually, you’ll trust me enough to share it all with me. For now, you’re going to put your big girl panties on,” I immediately push away the images of lacy shit that pop into my mind, and rush on before she blisters me with the fury in her eyes, “and give us a chance.”
“Let’s be clear about one thing,” I continue, “I decide what is best for me, what my heart can handle, whether I want to take a chance on us. That is my choice. So, get rid of any ideas you have about wanting to spare me the hurt, or thinking you know what I want, these are not your decisions to make. These are just excuses for you to hide behind and I’m not going to allow it. If you walk away, you’ll have to own it. Do you understand?”
Hayleigh is looking at me with anger and shock, but underneath it all, I see the hope lighting her eyes from within. It finally dawns on me, Hayleigh want me to make the decision for her, to take charge and pushing her to take a step she doesn’t have the courage to take on her own. I have zero problems with that.
“So, here is what we are going to do, you’re going to stop fighting me and let me love you. We’ll see where this goes from day to day. Now, you’re going to get your ass over here and let me kiss you like I’ve wanted to for four fucking years.”
Author Bio
I'm a lover of all things books, a hopeless romantic, and have always had a passion for writing. Between being a sappy romantic, my love of an HEA, my crazy imagination, and ok, let's be real, my dirty mind, I fell easily into writing romance.
I'm a huge baseball fan and yet, a complete girly, girl. I'm an obsessive reader and have a slight (hahaha! Slight? Yeah, right) addiction to signed books.
I'm married to my very own book boyfriend, an alpha male with a sexy, sweet side. He is the best inspiration, my biggest supporter and the love of my life. He is also incredibly patient and understanding about the fact that he has to fight the voices in my head for my attention.
I hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoyed writing them!
