Miami Masters Book 3
Julie Martin pulled on Jackson Davenport’s protective urges the minute he stepped outside and saw her go flying off her swing to land in a heap of gangly arms and legs then come up smiling. When he discovered how her parents pressed her into competing in beauty pageants for their own selfish gratification, he took it upon himself to provide her with the friendship the little girl craved. Years later, just when his adult feelings – and body – began to want more from the beautiful young woman she’d grown up to be, Julie moved away to take the modeling world by storm. Jackson’s first encounter with the changes in her personality broke his heart and he severed all ties with her.
Six years later, Julie returns to Jackson a broken woman, unable to cope with the nightmare that changed her life forever. When he discovers her penchant for cutting herself to deal with the fear, he shows her a new side of him she’s never seen before, and a new way to get through the darkness that continues to plague her.
Even though Julie embraces Jackson’s dominant sexuality and the way his painful ministrations work much better at calming her fears, the truth of what happened the night her two friends were murdered stands between them. Will she be able to set aside her guilt to tell him the entire truth, or will she once again lose the only person who can complete her?
Publisher’s Note: This book is intended for adults only. It contains elements of power exchange and explicit scenes. While it is the third title in the Miami Masters series, it can be enjoyed as a standalone.
My Review:
I knew as soon as I read the description of this book that it was going to be a difficult story for me to read. I don’t personally have experience with cutting, but I do have experience with the out of control feelings that can lead to it. I was very impressed with the way the author handled this very touchy subject. Julie and Jackson came to life in my imagination and my heart broke for them ever finding the right balance in their relationship. I loved seeing all of Jackson’s protective alpha instincts at work. And I loved even more watching Julie overcome the fears that were holding her captive. I don’t know that I have the right words to explain how much I’m enjoying this series, but I can’t wait to dig into the next book. I received a complimentary copy of this book through Booksprout.
