~Ellie
The note on the kitchen table shatters Jay
Wentworth’s world into bits. Ellie is his lover, his soulmate, his best
friend…she’s the woman who stood by him through the aftermath of a horrible
explosion, the woman he’s planning to propose to. He’d do anything for
her…except let her go. With his fierce protectiveness kicked into overdrive, he
teams up with Ellie’s Hotel Serafina boss, billionaire Wyatt Christiansen, to
find her. Ellie is family at the casino and they take care of their own.
Ellie is devastated when her secret past
finally catches up with her. Stupid to think she could bury the mistakes of her
youth and find happiness with a good man. Leaving Jay rips her heart to shreds,
but it’s the only way she can protect him from the dangerous people she once
ran with. And deep down, she fears he’ll never be able to forgive her for
hiding her past from him.
The closer Jay gets to the truth about
Ellie, the deeper he plunges into danger. He’ll move heaven and earth to save
her, but if she can’t trust in Jay’s love it might be too late for both of
them.

Her petite body was blurred
behind the thick glass wall enclosure of the shower.
“Yeah.” He sounded gruffer than
he’d intended. Clearing his throat he continued, “You okay?”
“Fine.” A clipped answer that
didn’t give him a hint of what she was feeling.
Yeah, she didn’t get to hold back
anymore. Feeling like a nervous teenager, he strode across the cool tile until
he stepped down into the enclosure of their oversized shower. When he’d bought
the place he’d had some immediate changes made, including expanding the shower.
At almost six and a half feet tall, he liked his damn space.
Ellie’s back was to him, her long
blonde hair plastered to her back as she stood under the pulsing jet of the
shower. But she was completely aware of him. He could see it in the way her
back stiffened as he stepped inside. His cock hardened instantly at the sight
of her toned, fit body. Compact, curvy and all his. Hell yeah, she was still
his. Something he planned to make sure she understood. He didn’t care if he had
to show her over and over. She was going to understand how important she was to
him. What he’d do for her. That they belonged together.
“Did you talk to Wyatt?” she
asked. She didn’t turn around as he drank in the sight of her smooth back and
over the tempting curves of her ass. Water dotted all along her tight body,
making him even harder.
“Yeah. He’s aware of the
situation.” But he didn’t want to discuss the details of that conversation now.
“Why did you say your sister’s death was your fault?” he asked as he settled
his hands on her slender hips.
Her entire body pulled taut and
she tried to shift away from him, but he held firm. She wasn’t getting away
from him this time. Pulling her back to him, he savored the little gasp of surprise
she made at the feel of his cock against her back. Leaning down, he nipped at
her ear as water rushed over him. “Why are you surprised by my reaction?”
Even above the sound of the water
he could hear her swallow hard. “I’m not. It’s just biology,” she said in a
rush.
Bullshit it was. “So you think
the sight of any naked woman would make me hard?” He teased her earlobe with
his teeth, knowing his calmness would get her riled up.
“They better not,” she snapped,
then seemed to remember herself. “Jay, what are you doing?”
He rolled his hips against her.
“You really need me to explain?” he asked as he slipped one hand from her hip
over her flat belly, then lower, lower until he cupped her mound.
“This…don’t you…aren’t you angry
at me?” Her voice shook, getting worse when he gently rubbed his middle finger
over her clit.
“I’m furious, baby. But that doesn’t change what’s between us.” And he
planned to strengthen their bond in every possible way he could.
My Review: 5 stars
I loved this from the first page to the last. I haven't read the first book in the series, but I think this is a stand alone. I enjoyed Ellie and Jay's relationship, and I could understand where they were both coming from. Jay is a very protective man, who has the capability to take care of anything - I mean anything that threatens his woman. Ellie, has had a difficult past and had made some poor choices when she was younger. She's no longer that person, but she doesn't let anyone see who that person used to be, until she has no choice. Because her past has come back with a vengeance and she doesn't see any way out other way to get out of what is wanted of her. So she runs. Not far or fast enough though. Because she has Jay and Wyatt and Iris, and others who care for her and won't let her leave them. That's as much as you're getting out of me. This is a fantastic book, and I'm very glad I had the opportunity to review it. Katie has a fantastic story line that pulls you in from the very beginning and doesn't let go. Her characters are easy to relate to and interesting as well. Excellent read.
