Obsession and Sacrifice

The Alaskan Heart Saga #2

by Tiffany Carmouche

Obsession and Sacrifice is the second book in The Alaskan Heart Saga. A series about unexpected love and a woman's fight for survival.

When Nichole wakes up in the hospital room from a coma, she has no memory of who she is or how she got there. Only the scars on her body reveal some horrific event took place and she is lucky to be alive…alive…but could she still be in danger?

Her only hope to rediscover her past and avoid a killer's obsession lies in the hands of two men: sexy Dylan, her boyfriend, who used to captivate her and now prays she will remember how much they cared for one another, and Bradley, her charming best friend, who has secretly loved her all along. She feels safe around both men, but to her, they are strangers. Nicole must decide who to trust, not only with her heart, but with her life.

They are rivals--both men want to win her love. But they are allies as well. The two vow to give her a second chance at life and both will sacrifice everything to make sure she survives.

She loves to travel. Sky diving in Alaska, riding camels in Africa, working with orphans in Argentina, dancing salsa in Ecuador, scuba diving in Hawaii, traveling throughout Spain, swimming under the stars in Puerto Rico and walking the cobblestone roads of Assisi, Italy are a few of her adventures. Her most cherished moments, however, have been watching her two beautiful daughters strive to accomplish their dreams.
For many years, she put her passions on hold. She lost sight of who she was and the things that made her truly happy.

Excellent! - Obsession & Sacrifice is here & it did not disappoint! The second of the trilogy gives you a tiny re-cap of the last chapter from the ‘The Impostor’ & sets the atmosphere ready for the roller-coaster of a read that awaits you! Once again the authors’ descriptive writing connects you right at the heart of the outstanding romance, intrigue, suspense & action. Yet again, Tiffany has written another book that I just couldn’t put down. There are so many different aspects to this book & the author has succeeded in making every chapter progress & flow at an exhilarating pace. Overall it’s a 10/10 from me & I’m here pacing the floor again, ready for the next book.

First I have to say that Tiffany Carmouche pulled off something that is very hard in writing and that is she has created a love triangle that has me torn between two men. So after reading the book I decided Nicole can have both men. Dylan can have Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Bradley can have Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday will be girls night! Bawhahaha sounds like a solid plan to me :) But who knows what will happen. That is what is so good NO WAY GREAT about this book. You just don't know what poor Nicole is going to do. The story starts off right where Impostor ended and man oh man Nicole moved to Alaska to start a new life but what she got was a crazy stalker who wants her for himself.

Nicole wakes up from a coma and she does not remember who she is or where she is. Dylan her boyfriend and Bradley her best friend have never left her side and she is grateful for that because they are going to be the ones to fill in the blanks.All Nicole knows for sure is that she is in the hospital and she is covered with scars from what happened to her. As the guys fill her in and she gets glimpses of her life she starts to feel safe. She knows Dylan and Bradley would never hurt her. She feels very safe and secure with both of them but the thing is they both love her and they both want her for themselves.

It is hard for her because she loves both guys and wants to make both of them happy. What is a girl to do? A psycho killer is after her and she needs to stay one step ahead of this crazy bastard but who can she trust and where can she stay? Dylan and Bradley are rivals but they have one goal in common and that is to protect Nicole at all and any cost to them. They will lay down their life for her.

Man oh man what a great love triangle and to add to it both these swoon worthy boys holds a special place in her heart as she starts to remember her previous life.

I received this book free from the author in exchange for an honest review.
This is the second book in the amazing series by Tiffany Carmouche. This books starts off exactly where book one left off, Thank God. If it's even possible, this book is even more intense than the first. It's such a crazy thrill ride and I never want to get off. It's more gruesome, it's fast- paced and heart pounding. It was such a rush! I actually liked this book better because you got three different POV's and the background for why each character did what they did and their thoughts behind it. Little tidbit of information, you can't trust anyone, everyone has a secret agenda.
Nicole is gain a great lead character. But in this book because of her "handicap" she is a totally different person (laughing so hard at my witty comment). I like her better now because she has nothing holding her back from following her dreams. Dylan is still a great guy, minus a few times of him being a complete ass, but I still love him. Especially since he is willing to do anything to be with the woman he loves. I also liked Brad better in this book. I love that we got his POV because it clears up my issues with him from book one. I still am holding out for him in the last book.
Another amazing book by the awesome author Tiffany Carmouche. She definitely has a knack for writing great books. I can't wait to read more books by her. and Hello??? What was that ending? Predictable but yet a cliffhanger!! I NEED book three NOW!!!

[Shirley Buchanan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just how complicated can one person's life become? Plenty, Nicole discovers.

Confused, her mind blank with amnesia, Nicole has a life full of men. Two men, her "angels", love her, another hates and despises her, and a fourth stalks her. Grateful for the assistance of her "angels", Dylan and Bradley, she tries to negotiate this new minefield of her life, but each new discovery leaves her more confused. Would her life ever be "normal" again?

Handsome and talented, Dylan has overhauled his life to win and keep the love of Nicole. Feeling guilty because he was not there during the attack, he continues to mold his actions to her needs. But things have changed. There are more actors on life's stage, and he is not sure he's ready. Will his love be enough or has he loved and lost?

Handsome, steady and reliable, Bradley has watched Nicole from afar, being only her friend, but with the attack, the total focus made a 180 degree turn. He's not sure being her friend only will be enough,and besides, Dylan is his best friend. Nicole and Dylan both need him. Can he change his focus one more time to only be their friend or will his love refuse to be subdued again?

Tiffany Carmouche has delivered another intense, suspenseful, emotional, and mind blowing book in this second installment.Well developed characters and intriguing plot. With the cliff hanger at the end, I can't wait for the next book.

Excellent Read! Highly Recommended!

5/5 stars Will she ever find normal again?

I must be honest I had never read anything by author Tiffany Carmouche until now. I first read The Imposter and immediately thought WOW! Then I began reading the second in this series Obsession and Sacrifice and I was blown away! This book doesn't skip a beat it picks up right were The Imposter leaves off. I was completely into this story. It has the right combination of suspense and romance without being over done. Obsession and Sacrifice did totally deliver for me. I was not disappointed in this story at all. Tiffany Carmouche does an awesome job of taking you through the story and making you want more.
The characters in this book are so well written it's as though you are them going through all the frustration and sacrifices they each make. Nichole trying to regain her memory, Dylan wanting nothing more than for Nichole to remember how much he loves her, and Bradley who desperately wants to do the right thing but is caught up in his secret of the heart. I absolutely fell head over heels in love with this book. I could sit here and write for hours on how great Obsession and Sacrifice but, I won't as I am not going to give away any of it's secrets. You must discover them on your own. So what are you waiting for go pick up a copy or two of the series and discover The Alaska Trilogy for yourself.

This is the second book in Tiffany Carmouche series and the wait was so worth it.I do not put spoilers in my reviews and I still won;t but the hotties in this book OMG. But the book is not just about hot guys, it is about struggles of life and overcoming those obstacles to get where you want to be and to me that is happiness. There is a going to be a third book!! which I want right now but good things come to those who wait, or so I have been told... sigh.
Become a fan of Tiffany on FB, she is fantastic with her fans and is always there to answer questions and she appreciates her readers to no end, she also throws a kick ass release party!!!.
If you have not read the first book The Imposter you must read it first, and just think if you do, you do not have to wait for the second book like I did and you will have instant gratification!!!
I wish I could give Tiffany Carmouche 100 start review as an author and a person, I believe her stories are for entertainment but also have a purpose, If you are or have been abused there is help out there for you and she wants you to know it.
Thanks Tiffany, I am a fan for life!!!

Love triangle at its best!

Love triangle used to be my favorite element in a book, but after all the years it just seemed overrated and lacking in the "WOW" factor, Tiffany Carmouche most definitely reminded me why I used to love Love Triangles in the first place, and the most surprising part, I love both the male characters (Dylan and Bradley) so much that I wanted Nicole to be with both of them (and I always pick sides). The twists and turns in book two definitely had me gasping and trying to get my head to process the sudden twist (especially for what happened with Dylan and Nicole's relationship). I have to admit, Dylan, Nicole and Bradley nearly reduced me to tears. I admire Dylan and Nicole's relationship because Dylan was so protective and caring towards Nicole, I love Bradley and Nicole's relationship because they are best friends. Decisions, Decisions.

Of course, the best thing about the series is the *goosebump* factor. If book one made you shiver, book 2 undoubtedly doubled the standards! That's how *psycho-ed* the killer is.

So glad that I received an Advance Reader's Copy (thank you so much for that!), Alaska has never been warmer! (that will be my tagline for the series!)

(I received a rough copy of the book for review)
This book starts off right where "The Impostor" left off, Nicole in a hospital bed unresponsive. The first few chapters were really hard on me as, the tears just kept coming out. My heart always skipped a beat when something upsetting happened, as I only wanted the best, and happy endings. Sarah I truly disliked that woman how can someone be so hurtful and mean? "I'm tired of waiting you need to go in there and make him realize he is wasting his time. Make him realize that this stupid bitch is just luggage. I wonder if there's a way to disconnect that machine. It's the only thing keeping her alive. How hard could it be to unplug it?" That truly pissed me off I mean doesn't the woman have ANY compassion! Dylan at times truly pissed me off as well, how can he be so kind and caring and worrying over her one minute and a complete ass the next? It's killing me to see Nicole in pain over Dylan. "I'm sorry Bradley." Her eyes lowered, breaking the connection building between the two of them. "I can't do this. Just hours ago I was throwing myself at Dylan, I can't do this I'm in love with him, and he doesn't want me. I hate him so much Bradley. I feel so stupid." I'm hoping there will be another book as although there was sort of a happy ending (have to read it for yourself) There is a lot I want to know more about.

I finished the first in this series and could not wait to begin the next and if possible I loved it even more. I love jumping into a book where I already know the characters...the scenary... falling into this book was like returning home from vacation...an exhale as you know where you are. The book started off exactly where the first one ended... and the first few paragraphs you were holding your breath as the beeps of the machines hooked to Nicole are echoing behind Brad's words... you are in that hospital as he makes confessions and then Dylan coming upon the tender scene... it is angst written at it's best and the story just takes off from there. Then the medical situation that brings about a lot of the "meat" of the story... especially one scene in the book that I was absolutely dying for both Bradley and Dylan as Nicole is trying to ...*figure* things out about them and her feelings for them and that once again put into dilemna who I wanted her with...lol. (All I can say is that I could not stop reading, I am supposed to be packing up my baby to send to college TOMMORROW...instead I was hiding and reading...)

I do not give spoilers but I will state that the story is not over and I cannot wait to see where the next book takes us and how exactly everything will be brought to completion.

[Two Nerds With Words · Rating 5 out of 5]

Obsession and Sacrifice, by Tiffany Carmouche, is an intense follow-up to The Imposter. Immediately picking up where book one left, we follow Nicole’s journey as she struggles to cope with the events of her past and her confused feelings about the two men in her life. Throughout Nicole’s battles, she has the additional concern of fighting for survival in a world where she’s not too sure who she can trust.

Once again the author, Tiffany Carmouche, takes the reader along a passionate, romance fueled adventure filled with palpable suspense, drama and action. We closely follow the three main characters which successfully allows us to bond and identify with them all. It’s impossible not to feel a connection with characters who are so creatively and realistically constructed.

Tiffany Carmouche impressively weaves together a narrative complete with heightened tension, compelling the reader to pick up the pace and turn the pages as quickly as possible to be able to keep up with the rollercoaster of action. The reader is left with an element of satisfaction, in addition to yet another cliffhanger that will no doubt leave the reader shouting a little at Tiffany Carmouche’s signature ending.

Obsession and Sacrifice is a romantic suspense of epic proportions.

[Vicki · Rating 5 out of 5]

WOW!!!!!!! Tiffany has not let her readers down! I devoured Tiffany's first book "The Impostor" and "Obsession and Sacrifice" was no different! Tiffany made me feel like I was right in the book with the characters! I laughed out loud, cried and was even ready to throw my e-reader at a couple of parts. The main characters, Nicole, Dylan and Brad all have a very close relationship and you can feel the love between all of them! The twists had me on edge and ready to jump into the book and go after some of the characters myself! Tiffany is such a talented writer and when she tells her story, you feel as if you are apart of her books! Thank you so much for the wonderful book Tiffany! You have fast become one of my favorite authors! I love the cliffhanger endings that leave me wanting more!

[Rosemary Kelley · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm not much of a reader, but I was so excited about the release of Obsession & Sacrifice (the second in trilogy) I couldn't wait to see what would happen with Nicole when I finished reading The Imposter - A Love Story (first in the trilogy.) I bought it the minute it was released. Obsession & Sacrifice had so many switches and unexpected turns I had to continue reading it until I was finished! Tiffany Carmouche kept up the unexpected suprises and thrills of genuine love for Nicole between two men - Dylan & Bradley - who want to help Nicole recover her past, while keeping her safe from a predator who put her in the hospital at the ending of her first book ~ The Imposter. The thrill ride continues. Another page turner!

[Cathy Wade · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was super great! I cannot wait for book 3! I cried throughout this whole book! You once again can feel the emotions of the writer. I fell into a deeper love for both men and was confused myself on whom I want Nicole with. Have to say I'm still team Dylan but I want Bradley happy too! You can really feel the emotion all 3 are going through and I love that they all share their POV and what they are thinking. Dylan does piss me off during some of the story but you will forgive him. I just want to warn you that you will need a whole box of tissue when reading this book! I loved this book as well as the first and I don't know how I will survive until the next book!

[Andrea Carpenter · Rating 5 out of 5]

Tiffany has done it again. Obsession and Sacrifice was thrilling. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time I was reading. Niki is an amazing character. To go through everything she has and not give up (even when she wants to), she's amazing a true heroine. Bradley and Dylan at times I just wanted to reach into the book and choke them both. Just when I thought I had everything figured BAM there was a new twist. I love books that throw twists and turns at you. So whose team am I on?...Team Dylan. I can't wait for the next book.

OH MY GOSH!!! Can you feel the love or what??!!!??!!!

Obsession and Sacrifice blew The Imposter out of the water!

Tiffany...how do you come up with this stuff??!!! I was truly amazed at the level of creativeness that I read in this install.

The way Dylan and Bradley are written in here and the moments they share with Nicole is phenomenal. Plus not to mention the way Nicole views things at the moment...very heartfelt.

I love this series so far and can not wait to start Becoming Invisible!

oh my gosh!!!! this book was amazing!! everything about it was wonderful! it was the perfect follow-up to "The Impostor". Both books had everything I love in a book! it had the love story (obviously everyone always loves a love story!), the thrill (which is a nice change in the love stories), the love triangle (everyone loves a little drama, and the adventure throughout the book. just fabulous books and I cant wait until the story continues!!!!:)

Explosive, that's the only way to describe this book. It was such an amazing read, I couldn't put it down! The ending had me screaming for more! I love how even with all she's been through and dealing with now, that Nicole is such a strong person. (It's also nice to read my name over and over haha) But, really, it's just a fantastic continuation of Imposter. Impatiently I await the 3rd book in this series. Love does conquer all!

Holy smokes! Put on your seatbelts because this book is a crazy and wild ride. I could not put it down and literally had to read each chapter immediately. I liked book 1 but book 2 was filled with intense suspense, romance and surprise. It was a little eerie at times but I just reminded myself it was fiction. I am so excited to read the finale! Team Dylan!

[Colette Reviews · Rating 5 out of 5]

As this story continues, it just gets better and better. The way it's written, you can't help but feel every emotion just as the characters do. I hate giving spoilers, so I'm trying to be vague here. But, there's a lesson to learn in these books and I am anxiously awaiting the next installment.

[K.G. White · Rating 5 out of 5]

AMAZING SEQUEL. Just like the first book, I had to read it straight through, I could not stop until it was finished. The love triangle was superbly executed. I do not want to say too much to diminish the thrill of reading it, but it is incredible and you will not be disappointed!

*I received this ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review*

Tiffany does it again in this second installment of The Impostor series.
Once again the reader is thrust effortlessly into Nicole's Story as they follow the road of her recorvery after the events of The Impostor.
This book has a sadder story than book did one, though every so often something will happen, or someone will say something that bring a rare smile to the reader's lips. There was more than instance that brought a lump to my throat.
There will be many many urges to slap the stupid out of Dylan, and at least once or twice that the urge to slap Brad will arise. Though while both men do a few things most people would not approve of, as the reader delves deeper into the story a sense of understanding the reasons behind their actions becomes apparent.
There were a couple of mild errors that I came about, literally two or three very small ones, but my version is an ARC and it's expected.
Obsession and Sacrifice left off on a mild cliffhanger, which seems to be Ms. Carmouche's style, and it's a very well played move. I eagerly await the third installment of this series.
I give this book 5 of 5 paws

When I got this one I dived right in since I had read the first one. My arms were sore from hanging on from cliffhanger and now a relief to see what happened next for sure. That Nicole is one lucky girl to have not 1 but 2 hunks with hearts being vigilant over her and loving her they way they do. She will be very happy when she wakes up that she survived and they are there-but oh no she does not remember them. What a way to hook you in and keep your nose to the page. After seeing she survived but to only have more complications this story got even better. Suspense like this that keeps you on the edge of your seat and gripping the book is hands down the best ones to read. some out there can be a little dry but won't find that here because also it has the best thing in it love combined with it makes for explosive in your face reading. Bradley and Dylan are both dudes after a girl's heart and the love they show in here is certainly not to be found easily anymore. Bradley sure has it good and to think he could be the one left out in the cold as the say goes but still stays by her side says much for him. Dylan though sometimes wanted to smack him for thinking he knows what is best and could be mean for her own good. Huh why do some guys thinks they do know what is best for others without thinking? Journey along with these 3 as the cat and mouse game is played with them and their race to stay ahead of killer. Killer one smart cookie using the ones closet to them to play this deadly game and even using some as his hands to do the dirty work. Dylan's dad becomes a better person in my eyes though when he helps out in some tough situations, not like that piece of work mother he has. Poor Nicole doesn't even remember her daughter, pulled on the heartstrings it did. But the love of a mom comes shining through and the bond of a mom and child if there is one tough to break. Bad killer trying to use her daughter to get to her,Steve just won't give it up the sick one he is. One of them though has to play the hero alone and not the right move against this killer. Dylan and Nicole's love burns bright and hopefully it will be enough to light their way. Action in this could not of been any better than it is kudos to the author. Gotta hold on though to see who will survive and who will die so off to the next one I go.

Ok soooo... Second book in the Alaskan Heart Series ..

ALASKA IS SMOKING HOT!!!

Nikki has been in a serious accident, and by accident I mean, a Creeper has tried to kill her and leaves her for dead when Brad attempts to save her (go back to book 1 for a recap if you must).

Anyway, where was I. Oh yeah, Creeper . So he tries to rape and murder Nikki but Brad saves her life.

Nikki wakes up in a hospital with two guardian angels, Dylan and Brad. There's only one HUGE problem. Nikki has amnesia and has NO IDEA what the hell is going on. She doesn't know who she is let alone who her two knights in shining armor are. Poor girl doesn't even remember Jessica (her daughter) or her parents.

Slowly, memories start to come back to her as the story progresses. But the progress, OH MY HELL, broke my heart. I messaged Tiffany MANY times to tell her that my heart was breaking in two because Dylan is in love with Nikki but so is Brad.

I'm back to where I was in the last book. Dylan or Brad? Brad or Dylan? We're at the end of the second book and I think I might be on the wrong side!!

Last book, Nikki didn't give up the cookie. Can I say the same for this book? Ummmm, read it and find out!!!

I am IN LOVE with this series!

So many plot twists, it kept me on the edge of my seat (ok the edge of my couch) for the ENTIRE book. I never knew what was going to happen. The minute I thought I had it figured out .. WHAM .. Mind fuck!!

This book is seriously twisted in the most amazing way!!

Keep it up Tiff and I can't wait for book 3!!!

I'm giving this book 5 out of 5 stars!!!

[Lindsey Gray · Rating 4 out of 5]

This novel picks up right where "The Impostor" leaves off. Bradley and Dylan are left in limbo while Nicole lies in a coma. Even with her unconscious, the Impostor is still making his nefarious plans. When Nicole wakes up with no memory, she is at Dylan and Bradley's mercy.

While the narrative goes back and forth between several characters, the reader is given a glimpse of the complete story. You feel the love and anguish between Nicole, Dylan, and Bradley throughout, but you also get a sense of their fear. Carmouche even gets into the mind of the sadistic serial killer.

As the story develops, Carmouche goes off in directions I never expected. Once again, I was trying to direct the characters out loud while I read, but Carmouche got them right to where they needed to be. The plot becomes even more elaborate than the first novel. Nothing happens as you might expect, but it is exactly how it needs to be.

There is so much happening as Nicole is recovering, Dylan and Bradley are fighting their feelings for Nicole, and the Imposter is plotting his next move. I don't want to give anything away, but the climax of the novel will have your heart pounding while the characters are racing to survive. I'm anxious for the release of "Becoming Invisible" to find out what wild ride Carmouche will take our characters on next.

A big thanks to Tiffany Carmouche for letting me be part of her tour and providing me with a copy of "Obsession and Sacrifice" in exchange for an honest review.

[Samantha Woods · Rating 5 out of 5]

I LOVED this book and I am so glad that I won it. This book pick up where the first one left off. Nicole had been attacked and is now in a coma. Dylan her Sexy Boyfriend and Her Hot Best friend Brad take shifts staying with her in the hospital. But while there they still have to deal with the man who tried to kill Nicole and Dylan's crazy ex. When Nicole finally wakes up she does not remember anything not even who she is.

Nicole will have to relearn everything. Even how to walk. She will have to rebuild relationships with both men and see who she wants and who she trusts with her heart and her life. She is still not safe. The killer is still after her.

I was so enthralled with this book, but I do have to admit there were times that I got so mad at Dylan that I wanted to slap him . I just could not put the book down and I'm glad that I did because the book was just that good. Dylan despite his many flaws in this book is the perfect person for Nicole. He truly has a heart of gold and would do anything for her. Would give up everything for her. I love the two of them together. But I can also see her with Brad. He is also very sweet and I think would also be perfect for her. It truly is the perfect Love Triangle. With the perfect Villain. He truly seems to be unstoppable.

They have quite a few trials to overcome in this book. The question is can they over come them and move on? This was an amazing book and I would definitely recommend reading this book but you definitely have to start with book 1 first.

I received an Advanced Reader Copy in exchange for a fair and honest review.

In this, the second book in the Alaska Heart Saga, Nicole awakens from a coma with amnesia. She remembers no one, not her parents, her daughter, her relationship with Dylan, or her friendship with Bradley. Due to brain trauma, she can no longer walk or do other simpler tasks. As the story progresses she will begin to have flashes of memories and the two men in her life are helping her to relearn how to walk.

Evil Steve is very active recruiting former friends of Dylan to try to get to Nicole and locate Nicole’s daughter, Jessica. He is, also doing his best to turn the main characters against those they love. There are so many more facts from this story I want to share; however, I’m a firm believer in ‘no spoilers’.

The author has done a wonderful job of blending danger, intrigue, and suspense with humor, determination, anger, frustration, and passion. The characters she has created are continuing to grow and mature as Ms. Carmouche’ weaves an exciting, fast past, danger-filled storyline. While reading this book, occasionally I would find I had tears gently sliding down my cheeks; or I would notice that I was gritting my teeth; or sometimes I would laugh and giggle uncontrollably. These are the reasons that I love this book and these characters. In addition, I love that there is much more to come in this tale. I am pleased to state this book is a 5-star read and I recommend it to all adults 18 and over.

[Monica Boots · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved the first book in this series and was glad I could immediately continue with book two 'Obsession and Sacrifice'. And, oh boy, I was not disappointed. Nicole is recovering from her injuries and is trying hard to get her memory back and finding herself again. Dylan wants nothing more than to have Nicole remember him for who he was and why she loved him. And then there is Brad who is also in love with Nicole but does nothing about it because of his loyalty to his best friend Dylan. But one thing these two men agree on is that they need to keep Nicole safe. This book picks right up where we left of with The Impostor. Only 30 pages into the story and I already wanted to jump in and slap someone around to only be crying 15 pages later. The struggles these characters are going through are so real you can not help but feel for them. Tiffany Carmouché also managed to create an very evil character in Nicole’s stalker. And when you think it is finally over you are hit with another twist to this story. Obsession and Sacrifice is definitely a must read and I can’t wait for book 3.

The continuing story of Nicole, Dylan and Brad. I could not put this book down. The suspense was great and the love triangle between Nicole, Dylan and Brad is intense. Dylan and Brad are bestfriends taking care of Nicole after an accident. Both men love her and are willing to let the other have her to save their friendship. Although, there is an obsessed sociopath man trying to get Nicole, they stay together to protect her and help her with her recovery in the process. My emotions ran up and down throughout the entire story. TEAM DYLAN all the way!
This is the second book in the trilogy and I can't wait to start the third book.
I have to say this, Tiffany really needs to get an editor that can edit, I'm sorry to say that there is a lot of grammar, spelling errors, missing words and double words. Tiffany writes an excellent story and deserves better editing. I will keep reading Tiffany's books I just hope that in the future the editing gets better. :)

This is book two in the Alaskan Heart Saga, and I have to say this book is more intense then the first book. This book picks up just where the first book left off with Nicole in the hospital fighting for her life. I feel so bad for Nicole who wakes up with amnesia and has two men who love her very much and a serial killer who is after her. I really feel bad for Brad and Dylan because they both love her so much and they know only one of them can end up with her. I could not put the book down because I couldn't wait to see what happened next. Just like the first book I want more, especially with the cliff hanger. If you like a love story with a lot of suspense then this book and series is for you. I can't wait to read the next book in this series.
