Kristen Ashley is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author. She grew up in Indiana, but has lived in Colorado and the West Country of England. Thus she’s been blessed to have friends and family around the globe. Her posse is loopy (to say the least), but loopy is good when you want to write.
Kristen was raised in a house with a large and multi-generational family. They lived on a very small farm in a small town in the heartland and existed amongst the strains of Glenn Miller, The Everly Brothers, REO Speedwagon and Whitesnake (and the wardrobes that matched).
Needless to say, living in a house full of music, clothes and love was a good way to grow up. And as she keeps growing up, it keeps getting better.
This was just KA at her very best, there’s nothing I like more than reading one of my favourite authors and actually being able to relate to the heroine’s story!
Amelia’s life falls apart when her husband cheats but she doesn’t max his credit cards and cut up his clothes, no she completely and utterly destroys everything good in her life trying to erase the bad! When she finally finds the strength to face head on what she needs to do, it’s like climbing Mount Kilimanjaro blindfolded, so she completely uproots what’s left of her life and embarks on the mission of getting back some normality in her life & righting her wrongs.
Enter Mickey ~ alpha male next door neighbour (swoon) A single dad with broken marriage problems of his own, he fights in the ring, he fights fires, he works construction (swoon swoon swoon).
He’s like the heaviest anchor in Amelias rough seas & when she finally confesses to him what she did to end up in her situation his response reduced me to a sobbing wreck, he just got it and despite his single mindedness at times he was just perfect for Amelia at this time in her life.
Their chemistry was off the charts, even when they fought, they crackled with electricity, I loved them together, I loved how they were with each others kids, how they approached their battles collectively, I absolutely, thoroughly enjoyed every single word, I struggled to put it down to sleep.
This story was just pure, undiluted KA, it was raw, emotional, heart breaking at times and Amelias strength of character was mind blowing, she could only truly deserve good things to come for her and it’s damn lucky KA is the queen of the HEA!
