You might think you've heard every story of forbidden love. But you haven't heard ours.
Hendrix "Cannon" Cole is a damaged, sexy-as-hell ex-Marine. He's also my stepbrother.
I'm a country singer in the spotlight.
Our history is complicated.
I used to hate him. Then I loved him. Then I hated him again.
When he joined the Marines five years ago, I thought he was gone forever. Now he's back.
I have everything to lose. He has nothing left.
The heat between us is explosive.
And both of us may wind up getting burned.
This book
was…amazing. Exactly what I was in the mood for and exactly what I was looking
for. I seriously love Sabrina Paige’s stepbrother romances. Her books never
revolve around the fact that the main characters are connected by marriage.
Yes, it’s there, it’s a part of the story, but there’s always other things
going on that the characters have to deal with. And that’s what makes her stand
out amongst all the mediocre stepbrother romance books I’ve read (and I’ve read
a lot). I’m also a sucker for rock star/musician romances and I’m a sucker for
military romances. So this book, combining both of those and the stepbrother
theme, was the trifecta of the perfect book.
I’m not
always a fan of the past to present format in books, but it totally worked here. Chapters would start off with a point
in the past and then transition into the modern day story. I loved Addy and
Hendrix. I loved their interactions, their chemistry, their personalities…they
just made this book perfect.
Addy is
country music’s IT GIRL. She’s the girl next door, America’s sweet heart…think
Taylor Swift’s public image. But after Addy got caught up in some compromising
photos (taken out of context), her overly controlling momager and step-father
security specialist team up with Addy’s record label to try and control her and
the nonexistent “situation”. That’s where Hendrix comes in. Fresh out of the
Marines, he’s bored silly at a desk job. So his father decides he’d make the
best bodyguard for Addy. Little do they know that there’s a past attraction
between Addy and Hendrix and once they come together…chemistry up the wazoo!
I loved the
time they spent together. There was a really sweet scene when Addy babysits for
her nephew and the three of them spend the day together.
I think the
scenes from the past helped establish the connection for the current day. Part
of what I loved was that neither Addy or Hendrix were able to really let the
other one go during their separation. One of my favorite “Awwwwwwwe” scenes was
when they admitted to constantly thinking about the other.
I feel like
my review doesn’t do this awesome book justice. Sabrina Paige is definitely one
of my all time favorite authors and I can’t wait for her next book!
"Don't say
that." I scramble to get my towel
wrapped around my body. How the hell am
I supposed to think clearly with Hendrix standing in front of me, water
glistening on his bare chest?
"Don't say what?" he asks, his voice low. "That my fingers were down your
panties? Would you rather I say that I
was touching your pussy?"
"Hendrix," I whisper.
"You can't talk to me like that."
"Or what?" His
mouth is close to my ear, and he trails one finger up my arm and traces the
outline of my shoulder before he slowly runs it up the side of my neck. I'm so on edge, so wanting, that I think I
might cry.
"What are you afraid of,
Addy?"
"You," I whisper.
It's the only word I can choke out.
I don't say all of the other things going through my head, the things I
want to say.
I'm afraid that
everything I've worked for will be destroyed.
I'm afraid of falling for
you all over again.
I'm afraid you'll rip my
heart to shreds, the way you did when you left.
I'm afraid you'll break
me.
But that word, "you," is enough for Hendrix. The look he gives me is practically
feral. He makes a sound, deep in his
throat, and I think if he kisses me again, he'll destroy us both. I want him to kiss me again. But instead, he pauses, his hand on the back
of my neck. "Drop the towel."
"What?" All I
can feel is the warmth from his hand, radiating heat from his palm through my
body and pooling between my legs. I'm a
raw nerve, a bundle of need and desire, and as much as I want him to go, more
of me wants him to stay. All of me wants
him to pick me up and fuck me against the wall, right now.
Hendrix groans, as if he can read the dirty thoughts that are
running through my head. "Drop the
towel," he repeats, his voice gruff and gravely.
"What are you doing?" I choke out the words, my palm
on his chest to push him away, but instead I end up sliding my hand over his
chest and down his rippled abdomen. His
hardness presses against his jeans, and all I can think about is how he would
feel inside me.
"Are we both going to pretend you're not aching for
me?" he asks. "That you're not
soaking wet with the thought of having me inside you?" He reaches underneath the towel, between my
legs, and touches me gently with the tip of his fingers. His touch nearly makes me melt.
"I'm not sure this is a good idea, Hendrix," I say,
protesting, but weakly. My resolve isn't
just weak. It's non-existent.
He pins my wrists to the wall above my head, holding them there
firmly with one hand while he traces my lips gently with one finger. "This is definitely not a good idea,
Addy," he whispers, his finger moving slowly down the front of my chest to
my cleavage. "This is the worst
fucking idea in the world."
"We should be reasonable," I say.
"I've never been a reasonable man," he says, stepping
back and surveying me. "Now, take
off the damn towel."
