Faith:

Our story was classic.

A typical fairytale.

Two young kids falling in love under an onyx sky, making vows they didn’t understand.

He was my dream …and I naively thought I was his.

Until he bartered our love and sold me a lie.

Now, I’m returning to the life I once knew…but not as the pathetic mess that left five years ago.

I’m a married woman, wed to the richest man in Nashville.

But it seems I wasn’t the only who changed during my time away…

Hardened by life, Jace Walker’s glares drip with heat and derision.

He’s got war in his eyes and venom in his veins.

I thought I would be safe coming back home, but it seems I only ran from my present to be caught in the cross hairs of my past.

Jace:

I traded my future for a life.

I knew what was on the line when I made the deal, I knew what I could lose, but I also knew that I didn’t really have a choice.

I gambled and lost.

Now the one person I had dreamed of having a future with was walking back into my life bearing the last name and wearing the ring of another man.

Lips painted red, hair that same honey gold and there against her creamy throat was our promise to one another, still dangling, reminding me that I may have lied, but she ran.

I was a liar, she was a coward.

Now she was home, and she wasn’t mine.

Caroline's Review

🌟🌟🌟🌟

"There was something so deliriously beautiful about being seen by Jace Walker."

Faith Morgan is back in her home town carrying her secrets close to her chest. She's not prepared to come face-to-face with the love of her teenage life. And, she's wholly unprepared for his enmity. As the days go by and their paths keep crossing, the past slowly unravels between them.

"Whenever she's around, something inside me just charges up, like an electrical current, and then zap."

Jace Walker is bitter and ashamed of the fact that he appears to be in exactly the same place as he was five years ago, when Faith ran away and married another man. He has no idea why she's back, he only knows that she's no longer his. When truths start coming to light bit by bit, hope starts to flare that they could finally pick up where they left off but, unfortunately, Faith's other life keeps intruding and setting them back.

"I wanted Faith. I wanted her heart, her soul, her body, and every single future kiss from those delicious lips."

I really liked the beginning of the story when Jace and Faith were young teenagers. They had a fantastic connection and I loved how passionate they were about one another. Once we'd fast forwarded into the future, we start to untangle just what has happened in the five years previously. Jace is bitter and Faith is broken but there's no denying the ever-present connection and torch they still carried for one another, no matter how hard they might try to fight it.

I thought that this story was compelling reading but, at times, I must admit that I found it a really frustrating read! The characters needed to just freakin' talk to one another honestly and openly. There were too many times I felt like screaming at them, especially Jace. He was so quick to believe things about Faith at face value rather than really stop and think about what he really knew about her and her character. I felt sorry for both of them and all the machinations that kept them apart but, yes, I kinda wished that Jace had had slightly different reactions to some of the situations in the story.
This was my first book by this author and I'd definitely read another.
