Excerpt
"Don't expect
romance and declarations of love from me. It's not who I am. If you agree to
this, there won't be anyone else, for either of us. I was never good at sharing
when I was young, and I'm worse now. I can't let you agree to this unless you
understand that you'll have my body, but I don't have a heart to give
you."
"Keep it.
Giving away something you can't live without leaves you to wither and die. I
know, I watched it happen to my mother, and I will never be like her."
"So, are you
willing to give this a try?"
I looked at him,
really looked at him. Could I keep my heart safe? Already he'd shown me
glimpses of someone possibly as broken as I was under his polished veneer. He
was dangerous to me because he might tempt me to do the one thing I'd always
avoided, fall head over heels.
God help me. I
thought I'd evaded temptation in the past. I'd run from every boyfriend who
threatened to make me feel anything more than lust. Maybe, knowing he wasn't
going to fall in love with me would be the difference. We could fight off the
loneliness together, and guard our hearts at the same time. It had to work
because I didn't think I had the strength to say no to him. No, that wasn't
exactly true. I didn't want to walk away from him, and that scared me more.
"Yes. I want to
give this, whatever this is, a try."
Review by Tabitha:
Oh HOLY HOTNESS
BATMAN....Beckett completely stole my heart. Like hook line and sinker,
stole my heart. This is the first book I have read by this author but I
can tell you it absolutely won't be my last. I was hooked from page one
and just couldn't put it down. Both Beckett and Evie have wormed their
way into my heart but they are stuck in my head too. I'll be the first
to say my favorite go to genre is normally romantic suspense with lots
of suspense even though it makes my brain hurt. However, sometimes I
just want a book that is far from that and this is it. This book is one
that will stay with me long after I have finished reading it. There were
a couple things thrown in that I didn't expect for sure. Sometimes
authors throw in things that are unexpected and it ends up feeling like
an after thought but this one was the exact opposite of that. Everything
in this book felt very thought out and not an after thought at all. I
can not wait for the next book. This is an author that I will be
watching aka stalking to make sure I don't miss anything.
5 Stars!
