Harper Maxwell owns the Boutique store Harper Avenue and lately all of the businesses surrounding her have left when the building was sold to Rafael Bazan. Unknown to Harper initially, Rafael's father was her "Uncle" Santiago and who helped her greatly after her parents and sister were mugged and killed. When Harper is concerned about everything with Rafael she decides to reach out to her ex-boyfriend.
Roman Marx disappeared from Harper's life and broke her heart but now he is back the moment she asks. Roman made a promise to Harper's dad before his death about keeping her safe and he vows to do just that, no matter how much Harper is trying to push him away. Roman was raised by Santiago yet he knows nothing about Rafael and he is concerned for Harper.
As Harper and Roman try and figure out what Rafael is after will they discover the truth before it's too late?
This was a great book with lots of action and mystery!
Harper was a great character who had a past that she was struggling with due to losing everyone she cared about - including Roman. As the book goes on we find out more and more about her and why she held everyone at a distance and I could understand why she was reluctant to let Roman back into her life.
Roman was awesome and I knew there had to be a good reason why he split with Harper in the first place. When everything was revealed I did understand although I did not agree with his decision! I loved how "alpha" he was with Harper the moment he got to her place and he did not want anyone going near her at all!
I wasn't too sure what to expect with Rafael but I knew it wouldn't be good and I was not disappointed! I was so curious to find out what he was after and why he was after Harper! Although I must admit I was completely shocked at the end with the revelation!
I really liked all the secondary characters in the book and this is the first book I have read by this author. There was so much mystery surrounding James and I really liked Kiernan and I want more of both of them!
The mysteries in the book kept me gripped from beginning to end and I loved all the twists and turns! The chemistry between Harper and Roman was through the roof and I loved them!!
Such a great book and I look forward to more from this author!!
5 Stars
