It was a lonely world when the ever present ghosts of my past refused to lie dormant.
They blemished all that was beautiful in my world, tainting and tarnishing even the simplest of memories.
Deep-rooted.
Lingering.
...Unseen.
Emily Dixon knew what it was like to bury a secret deep within her innermost soul. There, its power was removed. Confined. Ignored. All remained hidden until Emily travelled seven thousand miles across the world and unexpectedly collided with Austin McKenna… The very man who blew both her secrets and heart out of the water while trying to piece her back together again.
"TWENTY HOURS, TWO bloodshot eyes, two numb as hell butt cheeks and one crazy--ass nest of hair late, I disembarked in San Francisco, California." -Emily
AUSTIN MCKENNA
"I WANT A DO--OVER," AUSTIN STATED ONCE OUR BREATHING HAD CALMED.
I LOOKED HIS WAY AND HIS GAZE LANDED HEAVILY ON MY SOUL
"WHY?"
"BECAUSE, I'M AUSTIN MCKENNA AND I REALLY LIKE A GIRL I KNOW I CAN'T HAVE."
REVIEW
This is a 'New To Me' author & books. I really appreciate my ARC even if this book has been released for some time now. I kept hearing great things about it, not to mention the review's and I happy to have a chance to do so.
This is a story about a girl named Emily that lives and comes from New Zeland. A girl that took a chance on two strangers and formed a life long bond with the, A girl that wanted nothing more than to "keep looking", what for...well a lot of things. Life, relationship and career wise.
When she decides to make a trip out to California, she is surprised to have met Austin, Grace's brother, Grace and Collin are the most sweet lovable people you will meet. Austin on the other hand is another story, very upfront and judgmental from the day they met but ubber SEXY with the long hair and surfer look.
Sadly Emily went through a trauma that left her not able to be touched, the way a normal woman would be by a man. Best part, Austin is the sweetest and makes up for being a jerk at the beginning.
Austin and Emily drive down to LA to visit the other sister, who is sassier than Grace. During this drive, Austin gets a call that leaves both of them frustrated in the car. When two people who are worlds apart yet so alike come together, you either get total caos or total redemption.
I am rating this a 4.5 stars. I had a little bit of a hard time relating to Austin, I think it's because of the way California people talk, not sure if it's just him as a whole character, the way and do..so to say. Aside from that the story line is great, Emily is a down to earth great great gal! You will find lot's of laughter, events, determination and love...a love that Emily so needs.
