I haven’t read any of the other stories in this series, but I easily dived into this story. There are some scorching hot sex scenes. The chemistry between Jake and Sapphire is off the charts. I liked that Jake easily committed to Sapphire and showed his caring and loving side even if he took a while to admit to love. Sapphire was great, she knew she wanted Jake and was able to reconcile what he needed with what she was willing to give. I liked being able to see her thought process and that she didn’t just say this has to work, she actually thought it through.

I loved every minute of this story, and I read long into the night to finish it. This is the book for fans of scorching love stories with Alpha men and the woman who love them.
