Few things can break your heart like a sick child. But a father grieving for his sick child- with there being no absolutely no way of saving that child. Well, that can break your heart just as much.
Meet Rome Pierce. He is that father. And his child- well, let's just say that this book is gonna rip your heart right out of your chest. It's going to make you scream, and cry, and rage at the world and the injustice of it all. It will make you question what kind of creator there is that would tear away someone as precious and innocent as a young boy with his entire life ahead of him.
But, Lani Lynn handles it so beautifully. She handles the pain. And the grief. And the ugliness of it all. She makes Rome go through it all. Why? To get to his beauty. His Isadora. His Izzy. The one woman that could bring him happiness and a life that was worth living after going through hell.
These two met in the midst of the worst of circumstances, but made it through everything to become one of the strongest of couples, with some of the sweetest rewards- definitely some of Lani's best work. I'm so glad to see another series get off the ground with a great start. I can't wait to see what the rest of the guys have in store, and can only count the days until we get their secrets as well.
When Rome Pierce moved to Bear Bottom, Texas,
it was his intention to lay low. To not be seen. To find a way to heal his body
and soul—as well as his son’s.
Nobody would know by looking at him that he
used to play professional football. Not with the Bare Bottom MC cut covering
his back, and definitely not with his friendly smile completely obliterated.
No longer is there charm in each smooth word
that comes out of his mouth. What’s left is an angry, bitter, scared man that’s
terrified one day he’s going to wake up and his entire world is going to be
gone.
Nobody knows what drove him to leave the game
he loved—nobody but her.
She’s the one person that has helped him make
it through the dark days and even darker nights. She’s the bright and shining
star in his pitch-black sky.
And he doesn’t even know her name.
He should be afraid that she knows things that
not anyone—not even his best friend—knows.
Yet, with each encounter, he gives what little
bit of his soul remains, and before he knows it only two people on this
earth—one dying, and one too afraid to live—make his life worth living.
Until one day he has to choose—the love of his
life, or the life he brought into this world.
Two impossible situations. One decision that would change him forever.Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon CA | Amazon AU
