BLURB

Parker 
I can’t escape the past no matter how fast or how far I run. 
I’m broken and damaged, and nothing will change that. 
Not after my husband died overseas and I was left alone. 
All I can do is keep moving forward. 
But what I don’t expect is one cop in particular to get under my skin. 
Making me want something more. 
He hates me. 
Everywhere I turn, he’s there, watching me. 
Waiting for me to screw up. 
Again. 
I’m not going to give up, though. 
Not when I finally found something that makes me happy. 
I know how short life can be and I’m not backing down. 
Remy Townsend doesn’t stand a chance once I make up my mind. 
After all, we grew up together. 
And I know every button to press to get what I want. 

Remy 
One drunken promise is going to ruin my life. 
I told him I’d watch out for his wife if he died. 
The task was easy enough when I was overseas. 
All I had to do was send a letter, or make a phone call. 
But coming home and seeing her will be my undoing. 
She’s everywhere I go. 
Everywhere I turn. 
Now, I can’t take my eyes off her even when I want to. 
Keeping her safe means I have to stay away. 
Because the thoughts going through my head ... 
Well they’re enough to send me straight to hell. 
Parker Hayes is quickly invading every aspect of my life. 
One drunken promise… That’s what it always circles back to. 
I’ve been trained to go balls to the wall with every mission. 
Never back down. Never surrender. Never walk away. 
Even if what we have becomes collateral damage.

This blurb really intrigued me right from the start and I was not disappointed. It was raw and heartbreaking. It is kind of a second chance romance but frienemies to lovers as well. It will have your head spinning, especially with every twist that the author added to this story. My heart hurt for Parker as she is still navigating being the single mom. But there are so many underlying things that swirl around her and her now dead husband. When you get to that point in the story, your heart really hurts for her but also want to ask her what was she thinking. Then you have Remy who is essentially lashing out because he was hurt so much by people he thought he could trust. There are some intense heartbreaking moments as old wounds are opened and all the past hurts are exposed. But what I really love about this book is that it is about healing as well. Taking control of your past, owning it and moving forward. The sizzle between Parker and Remy is off the charts passionate. As a whole, it was a great story and I am intrigued to see what more is coming from this series.
