What neither Jonah nor Luce expected was the attraction that they would feel for each other. Now they are going to have to find a way to get rid of the threats to both of them so they will have a chance for the future. Getting rid of Luce’s stalker ends up being the easier one of the two problems and taken care of quickly. Now they just have find out whom Jonah’s enemy is going to send after him this time and make sure that they don’t succeed because Jonah knows that this time they will use Luce against him and he knows that if he lost her he wouldn’t survive it.





This story really pulls you into the world of the characters with some twist you don’t see coming. You get to watch Jonah and Luce as they work through all that is going on gets you rooting for them to overcome all the obstacles in their way. With some great secondary characters that help this story come to life. This one is hard to put done once you start to read it.





I give this one 4-1/2 red roses
