About the book:
Former GRS operator and Navy SEAL Garrett Davis is the walking, talking definition of regret. His guilt weighs heavy. The pain and misery he carries cripples him. When a tragic accident takes him back to his hometown, he’s not prepared to face the woman he left behind. The woman who should’ve been his—was his, until he broke her heart.
Mellie doesn’t have time for Garrett to strong-arm his way back into her life. She doesn’t want to remember all the ways he loved and protected her when they were children. It’s not easy to dream of a life full of love when your high school sweetheart dumps you before you make it down the aisle. She’s long ago given up on happy endings. Besides, all thoughts of happiness evaporate when your sister is murdered and the police don’t believe you.
But what she wants and what she needs are very different when her sister’s killer turns his attention on her.
Garrett has one shot to protect the woman he’s loved since they were kids. One shot to heal two broken hearts. One chance to prove their future is worth fighting for. Garrett’s redemption won’t come easy, as Melissa Rivers is not the same girl he broke.
Spoiler alert: He fails. So he does what he figures any man who is faced with losing everything does—he kidnaps her and takes to the only person he knows who can help him—Zane Lewis.
Too bad the killer follows....
Review:
I was so ready to hear Garrett's story and I knew it was going to be one of my favorites. Garrett is the teams I/T guru and has been there for his brothers through all of the drama of their lives. He has been their shoulder, their backup, but most of all their protector and brother.
Garrett had to go home because his dad was in a rehab facility and he wanted to make sure he was okay. He knew there was a chance he would run into his life line, the person who he would have been married to, the person who would have had his children, but each time he was around she avoided him at all costs. Mellie was the breath he needed to take to live but couldn't. He hurt her but she moved on....or so he thought!
Mellie didn't want to live in the past. She moved on from Garrett and needed to stay on that path. Yes she still got goosebumps and she still felt that nudge, she didn't want to go back to what could have been and she had a niece and nephew that she needed to help her parents with. She needed to get down to the bottom of why she was killed and if he husband had anything to do with it.
Mellie needed Garrett more than she thought but could she depend on him to come through for her like? Will he leave her stranded without help and hope if she decided to take his offer?
Sebastian and Janine did a fantastic job with the end of this series!!
