His father is the ultimate puppet master and Woods is nothing but a pawn.One hot night together and Della has been ruined to all other men. Woods gives her something she didn't know existed.

She doesn't want to burden anyone with her future.Della has issues. She has big issues. She has no idea how to get better but she is determined to try.Woods gets pulled in more and more by his father and he doesn't know if he can get out. Leaving would be so easy but he would have to give up everything he has ever thought he would be.In the end they both have to decide if they are worth fighting for. Della must fight her inner demons as Woods fights the demons on his doorstep. They both are saddled with family baggage that is too big to carry alone but may just be bearable with the help of someone they love.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~This was a really sweet and interesting twist on a love story. I really liked Della. She was genuine and I believed her story and her fear. Woods, he was to die for. Man, he was over the top protective alpha male and he was HOT! The chemistry was smoking, the writing was amazing and the story had me hooked. Abbi Glines is a sure thing and she didn't disappoint with this one.
Heather~Reading Haven~
I am a thirty something wife and mother of two. I read in all of my free time and some of my not so free time. Sleep, who needs sleep! I started out several years ago and after finding some amazing books and even more amazing friends GR has become my favorite place to hang. I started out with Urban Fantasy that was heavy on the romance and branched out in to straight contemporary romance. Now I am reading a variety of book. Some New Adult, some Contemporary Romance, some YA, Erotica and some Dark Erotica. If there is a love story in there, I'll read it. I am a complete sap for a good love story. I prefer a HEA (insert unicorns, rainbows and kittens). I really dislike major cliffhangers when there is more than a few months gap between releases. I read so many books that I forget the story line. I sometimes wait until the whole series is out so I can plow through the whole thing. :-)
