Hope has endured horrific things for the last few years by an evil man and now she has escaped to try and find the freedom she craves, but this guy refuses let her go. When she is injured and crashed she things this is how she meets her end until a miracle in the form of Wyatt happens. As Wyatt helps her heal physically he doesn’t realize that he is also helping her mentally, but he knows he can’t keep a woman like her because he thinks he’s damaged. In the short amount of time they spend together they become closer even though they fight it, but something just pulls them to each other. Wyatt is a broody guy who will fiercely protect those he cares about that includes Hope and he will fight for her no matter what. With this evil man on the hunt for Hope and help from some characters we loved in the past can they fight this guy and set her free? Can Wyatt learn to move forward from his past and be the man Hope needs and wants? I have been so excited about this book since we got a little taste of it in an anthology and now that it’s been expanded it’s everything and more!! Wyatt was this sweet, protective alpha that you can’t help but love and Hope was this sweet courageous woman fighting to survive. I loved them and getting to see characters from other books as well.
