Deliverance #1
Dazed
People say the heart wants what it wants and will not be denied.
Those people are fools.
I’m a practiced hand at hiding from the world. The scars I bear are invisible to all but me, and I use them to sustain the walls I’ve built around myself.
He knocked my simple life into disarray and infiltrated my carefully constructed defenses.
The tight control I maintain is at breaking point, and ever since our eyes connected across a lunch hall, my world has been off balance.
I can’t have him, and he can’t have me.
I know it.
He knows it.
I’m just not sure that Tarrant Reigns has ever followed anyone’s rules.
Everything and everyone is against us.
Even his brother.
Caden brought us together, but now he’s standing in our way.

Seriously, why haven’t I read anything before by Maria Macdonald? I’ve promoted her like crazy, loved her book covers, added her titles to my TBR, and yet never actually picked up one of her books and read it. Well, Maria Macdonald is having the last laugh now. I freakin' loved Dazed and now I can’t wait to read more from her.
Yes, I know, I love my YA/NA books but I don’t think that was what attracted me to this story. The cover was fabulous, as expected for one of Francessca’s creations, but give me a blurb about pain, scars and suffering en route to a HEA and I’m there 100%. The blurb, as mentioned, pretty much sells this book but it’s not until you meet the characters that you come to understand just why you’ve been drawn to it.
As you delve into the story, you firstly meet Laura. A pretty but not so popular student, she likes to live life under the radar and tries, unsuccessfully thanks to her friend Morgan, to hide herself away as much as possible. It’s clear early on that Laura’s past has had a significant bearing on who she has become today but it’s not until later into the book that we come to realise just how much her life has affected her.
Next up we meet the two new McHottie brothers who have arrived at Laura’s college, Caden and his brother Tarrant. Caden is a popular, easygoing and good looking jock and his brother is the complete opposite: dark, brooding, scary and best of all, tattooed. Both brothers immediately notice Laura, but it’s a pull towards Tarrant that Laura feels the strongest.
As the story progresses, life for Laura becomes more and more complicated and she’s drawn to one brother but is loyal to the other. Best friends with Caden, Laura loves him unreservedly but it’s her feelings for Tarrant that causes her head to spin. With her best intentions of being invisible now impossible, thanks to the prominence of the two brothers, Laura finds herself facing off with her nemesis more and more frequently but what she doesn’t expect is that the one person capable of breaking her heart is secretly looking out for her.
This book is beautifully written. Yes, it’s young but it is not written in a way that makes readers feel uncomfortable about the actions of the main characters. This is a sweet coming of age story but also one with some sharp edges as Laura, Caden and Tarrant struggle with family life and try to find a way towards a peaceful future.
I would definitely recommend Maria Macdonald’s storytelling abilities, even if YA isn’t your thing. The way she writes draws you deeper and deeper into the story with effortless ease and does so without unnecessary and blatant promiscuity, which is a refreshing and pleasant change.

Favorite Quotes:
I’m not sure if this is what heart failure feels like, but I take a second to wonder as it stutters in my chest. Forget butterflies, I have bats on amphetamines flying around my stomach. Right then I want to slap my own face and give myself a stern talking to, something along the lines of never letting a guy turn me to mush.
I do the one thing I was taught after my attack. I pull my leg back and knee her in the crotch…. ‘Yeah, well you act like a dick, so I thought maybe you had one,’
I may have told him that if he carries on being a perv, I was going to kick him in his old man balls and write my name in the dust that comes out of them.
‘You’re not a plaything to be toyed with, Lemon.’ He brushes a strand of hair from my forehead then cups my cheek. ‘You’re the treasure that most of us search for our whole lives,’ he whispers, and I feel the tears gathering in the corners of my eyes. ‘You’re the good to my bad, the water to my oil and as long as you let me in there…’ he points to my heart, ‘… I promise to always treasure that gift and feel blessed.’
Say yes, baby, you have to say the word. I won’t go any further otherwise… I need you to never regret this… Never want you to regret us, Lemon.
There’s no strings with you, but I wish there were. I need to wrap up in them, tie myself to you so completely that I’ll never unravel.
My Review:
Dazed was stunning. I was quickly pulled into the rabbit hole and was continually engaged throughout this emotive, angsty, amusing and compellingly written tale. I was intrigued by these enticing characters and was so very curious to learn Laura’s deepest regret… it had to have been extremely horrendous, as she had never spoken it aloud. Each character had their secrets and carried personal pain and tension, yet true to Ms. Macdonald’s crafty style, there were highly amusing comedic moments as well as sizzling sensuality. I was gasping and clutching my wine goblet to ensure hydration. I am more than eager to see what she does with the rest of this series.

Hooked from the very first page. You'll love Laura,Tarrant and Caden. Maria is such a fantastic writer and surprises me with every book, I can't wait for her next release. Thanks Maria
May 18, 2017
I’ve followed this author from the beginning of her journey and have loved seeing her grow in confidence and her writing style mature, this latest offering from Maria shows just how much. It is, in my opinion, the best of her catalogue. Dazed feels more cohesive and put together than previous works, flows extremely well and absolutely draws the reader in. I devoured Dazed, enjoying it immensely. The story sits on the cusp of YA and NA (although it does have some mature content so it isn’t suitable for an under 18 reader), a coming of age story that deals with some not so unfamiliar scenes of our earlier years.
And check out the cover! Beautiful, aesthetically pleasing and if it doesn’t draw your eye in and make you want to take a peak, well… Dazed suits the story so well.
Two brothers with one girl at their centre. Tarrant, Laura and Caden take an unconventional journey together and I dare you not to fall in love with them. Insecurities and misunderstandings hamper this unconventional triad, the relationships are skewed and not always what they seem. It’s a triangle for sure, but not how you know it.
“I drag myself from the pit where my nightmare still lingers…”
All three have secrets and dabble in lies that plot the course of their relationships with each other and I loved how the author unravels them for the reader, slowly but surely, one at a time until you have the complete story before you. I love this kind of writing and reveal, there’s some guess work but that’s exactly what a reader wants right? I also loved the realistic dialogue, scenarios felt true to life and there was just enough descriptive imagery for the reader to get a good feel of their surroundings and to pick up emotions when they were needed.
“Forget butterflies; I have bats on amphetamines flying around my stomach…”
The use of some perfect analogies dotted throughout made for some fantastic reading, I got the story, I got the emotions…I just got it. I absolutely appreciated the little flashes of cheeky humour and sarcasm Maria has written in Dazed too, it leant the perfect mix of sweet and sour if you like, as at times the plot was heavy and angsty. Maria’s writing is concise and engaging throughout. Laura is quite a quirky character and again the writing prompts the reader to visualise these traits in her. Morgan, a secondary character, is perfectly loveable too and you can see the bonds of friendship that tie her to Laura. Everyone needs that friend, right? In fact, there’s nothing much a reader won’t like in most of Dazed’s characters, all have that something that reaches out and brings you into the fold. There is an antagonist or two that push the story along and provide relevant conflict, again well-developed characters.
“Your girl bits are touching my boy bits, I feel violated.”
All in all, you can’t go wrong with Dazed, the book has a little bit of everything that a reader likes. Written very well and as I have already mentioned it is most likely her best work to date. Maria MacDonald’s writing style seems to have emerged full force in this piece of work. The themes addressed had the potential to spiral into the dark but Maria seemed to have a way of stopping it from going too far, which I really liked as it suited the story better.
If you haven’t read this author you truly are missing out, what a journey. I’d encourage you to go have a look at her back catalogue and get reading. Dazed is good, really good and I can’t wait to get this baby on my pb bookshelf!
And oh – if you didn’t know what ‘shark week’ was before, you will after reading this!

Dazed by Maria Macdonald
“ Not your typical love triangle, 5 stars”
Laura is the type of girl who keeps her head down and only has one friend, her roommate Morgan. That is until she meets Caden, and then she is dawn into her colleges spotlight. Caden quickly becomes one of her best friends. She’s protecting him from his secret coming out while trying to hide a secret of her own.
Tarrant wanted Laura from the first time he saw her, too bad his brother Caden got to her first. Will he be able to resist the temptation that is Laura? Can Tarrant set aside his own self doubt and finally realize he deserves happiness too?
Hes the typical bad boy and shes the good girl. Things are bound to get messy and feelings will get hurt. Deliverance everyone seeks it but will they get it?
I loved Laura, Morgan, Caden, and Tarrant. I was immediately sucked in and invested in the story and the people. I understood where each of them were coming from. Laura, Caden, and Morgan have a friendship so tight it’s basically the definition of friendship goals. When one is struggling they all feel it. This is probably one of Macdonald's more clean romance stories but it doesn't take away from the story. It's also her first New Adult story and as far as I’m concerned she hit the ball out of the park.
Here are a few quotes from the story I loved;
“His arms move, changing gears so smooth and fast that you’d have to concentrate to really see the jerk as he shifts from fourth to fifth. I find myself wondering what it would feel like if he used his hands on me.”
“Most girls want the logs, they might think they want the tinder because it ignites so quickly, the fire is instant, but in the long run, they want something that will last.”
“There’s no strings with you, but I wish there were. I need to wrap up in them, tie myself to you so completely that I’ll never unravel. You’re pure, and together baby we can make our own rainbow.”
“… sometimes, when you mix something pure, with something dirty, you create something beautiful.”

Reviewed on behalf of 2 girls who love books
I really enjoyed this story! I’ve never read anything by this author before and I have no idea why! The book was brilliant! I loved the characters and I loved the storyline! Completely different to anything that I have read before. The book as a whole was really well written, was nice and easy to read and kept my interest throughout. I do like reading YA stories, some of my favourite reads fall into this genre, and this was a great example of one. The chemistry between Laura and Tarrant was indescribable, it was there simmering at the surface with every look, touch and word spoken. It was the best chemistry I have read about in a while. Laura was a great character, she had some run ins with other girls but she wasn’t shy about defending herself especially when they were pretty nasty to her. I loved Tarrant, I was completely wrong about his character to begin with and I grew to love him as the story progressed. We can’t forget Caden, I really felt for him and the situation he found himself in but loved the relationship he had with Laura. I also really liked Morgan as well; she was a great friend to Laura!
I really can’t wait to read more by this author – Dazed was a brilliant book and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it!

I wasn't to sure about this book at first, But within couple chapters, I was totally engaged. Suddenly, it was 4:30 am and I had to tear myself away so I could get a couple hours sleep. The story is real life drama of college students and girlfriends and boyfriends and just friends. It kind of reminded me of a modern take on some Shakespearean play. All the characters were real life personalities jumping out of the pages of the book into my real world.
Laura and Caden's friendship leads Laura through the gambit of emotions and breaks her free of her own exile from life. In return Caden finds courage to let his family and friends know who he really is but has kept hidden inside. Laura's best friend, Monroe, is who I would want as a best friend. Tarrant is ... well ... The totally HOT tortured bad boy, and Caden's twin. Anyway, when Laura agrees to be Caden's "fake" girlfriend things really turn interesting.
This book is definitely worth your time and money.

I was hooked from the first page!!!!
Laura isn't your everyday party college girl, suffering from the pain of losing someone close to her and being shunned from her family . Laura spends most of her days in class and her nights at work at the local grocery store or in her doom room watching romantic comedies . She feels completely alone except for the bond she has with her roommate Morgan until two gorgeous twins enter her life
Caden is the gorgeous athlete that immediately knows that Laura isn't like the other girls and she's perfect for what he needs right now. They're relationship automatically puts Laura in the spotlight which isn't something shes use to but she starts to care deeply for Caden and puts his needs before her own. Will Caden's issues cause more problems for Laura?
Tarrant is the bad boy twin, trained fighter that loves his muscle cars and women. He's never had a serious girlfriend but why can't he stop thinking about his twin brothers girlfriend and why does it seem like she has feelings for him?
Morgan... I can't leave out Morgan, shes not part of this love triangle but she stole my heart. Laura needed Morgan probably more than she needed any other character in this book. Morgan gave Laura the support she needed desperately from her family that wasn't there, she became Laura's rock.. they became family.
Dazed was a Five star read for me, I fell in love with the characters.. I laughed, I cried and even got angry . Dazed evoked a lot of emotions from me, character development was on point and each character had their own story to add . This is absolutely one of those books that I didn't want to end because it was written so well that I was lost in book land.

*Received an ARC for an honest review*
Amazing read, hooked from the very first page. Meet Laura a girl with a mysterious past and twins Tarrant and Caden both possess an interest in her but in absolutely different ways. Caden the thoughtful brother and Tarrant who is the opposite, typical bad boy. A love triangle but not the way you anticipate.
Captivating read, highly recommended. It won't disappoint.

What a great read! My first Maria Macdonald and it certainly won't be my last!
Even though it is touted as a young adult romance, it is so exceptionally well written, I was sucked in!
The story of Laura is not your typical young adult story!
It's a poignant story of family, love and sacrifice!
4.5 stars!

I had forgot what this book was about, so when I started it and realised it was a college romance I thought oh no, not college kids BUT I was wrong I found this a captivating read with characters I really cared about.
This book was captivating, had sizzling chemistry, and a good story
I easily guessed Kaden's predicament, I understood his issue, especially with Tarrant his brother being so macho and a ladies man, not that Kaden doesn't have the looks and an athletic build!
Tarrant, is really interesting and I loved getting to know him more as the book went on.
The book is low on angst, there is a little but nothing to stop this being an easy to read college romance.
4.5 stars

Maria always surprises me with her books it's like unwrapping a present and finding the wonderful surprise inside.
The author pulled me in right from the start I wanted to know more about the charcters and how they all fit into the story. We meet Laura who has a but of a mysterious past, I was happy that we got to find out everything slowly it felt like I was a friend getting to know her slowly. Tarrant and Caden are twin brothers that come into her life both have an impact on her but in totally different ways. Caden is the shy thoughtful brother where Tarrant is the typical bad boy, it's a love triangle but not the way you think.
I love the story, it's intense, it's heartbreaking, it's sweet and I swooned at Tarrant seriously swooned. Another fantastic story go on buy it you won't be disappointed.

Dazed by Maria Macdonald is a New Adult book with a college setting. It centres around Laura, a girl whose past means that she she struggles with being social. She doesn’t like many people, she can’t trust them and she builds walls around herself to try and keep from getting hurt. Since she doesn’t care what people think, she’s true to herself and is a unique character. I love her cartoon t-shirts and quick comebacks.
But when the Reigns’ twins transfer to her school, things are about to get shaken up. As if the school’s Queen B didn’t already hate her enough, things get complicated when both Tarrant and Caden want Laura. But this isn’t your typical love triangle – welcome to a world of sassy comebacks, lingering looks and twists galore. And if she wasn’t already outside her comfort zone, these brothers will push her into the social limelight and Laura will finally have to start taking down her wall- brick by brick.
It’s an emotional, angsty read with relationships that are so interwoven and complicated that it makes a great read. The cover is stunning and I really can’t wait to read more about this group of friends!

I can’t believe that I haven’t read anthing from this author yet. Her writing flowed and was easy to read. I went through so many emotions that I loved every aspect of it.
This book has everything that I was looking for in a book. It had the strong fierce h, the bad boy heartthrob H, the friends that everyone wants, and even the enemies. Laura is a wonderful girl to read through. She has had a past and is dealing with the aftermath of it. She has a great friend in Morgan and then eventually Caden. Morgan is the exact opposite of Laura but brings out the “old” Laura. Then there is Caden. He is the sweet caring boy that Laura needs in her life. However, Tarrant is the bad boy that everyone wants. He tries to fight his feelings toward Laura but he completely redeems himself throughout the book. Then there is Selina, and to be honest I liked her character. She brought out the strong, fierce Laura and it was good to see that throughout the book.
I would highly recommend this book to everyone. Like I said in the beginning it has everything that you need in an amazing book.

Dazed is the first book Ive read by author, Maria Macdonald. This book may be a tough read for some because it deals with sensitive subjects. One subject being rape. I would consider this a young adult book. The author introduces us to the college age characters of Laura and twin brothers Camden and Tarrant. The brothers are total opposites and are instantly drawn to Laura but Laura has a hard time trusting because of a past tragedy. This story is full of young love, secrets, and heartbreak. I loved how the author developed the characters and her story writing was so believable and deals with subjects that are so true to life. The book does contain a HEA and is definitely worth reading.

Laura is in college alone but for her one friend Morgan they have some fun. She is Laura’s Family, laura is very closed off at times and her trust in people isn’t the easiest, but when she meets Caden and his twin brother Tarrant things change. Being a good friend and seeing how Caden reminds her of her brother Aiden they fall into an easy friendship till he ask her for something and the lies build and she feels stuck. Great book.

After falling in love with this blurb and cover I was eagerly anticipating this book. After a reading slump it was also just what I needed. As with all Maria's books I've read to date, the story was just perfectly mixed and set a pace I was excited by.
Excerpt:
Devin ended the life I once lived, and because of him, I changed. The image reflected at me in the kirror every day now is a stranger. I know the real me, the one I've run away from is still inside somewhere, but she's subdued, beaten down, and I'm not sure there will ever be a way to resurrect her.
Tarrant and Caden are twins but other than that seem like polar opposites. Tarrant being the typical tatted bad boy and Caden being the sensitive, laid back one. But after a life of heartache for Laura, Caden quickly becomes the friend and brother she needed. The one she lost despite her reluctance to admit that.
Excerpt:
A sharp pain consumes my chest. The last time I thought a guy was genuine, I found out the hard way that trust is a fragile thing, and sometimes it can end up breaking you in the worst way.
Running from her past, we see Laura flourish after letting people in. But her heart overtakes her head but her new relationship leaves her between a rock and a hard place when it comes to protecting the twin she adores versus the twin she hopes she could love. But with a secret keeping the twins at arms length, her feelings remain unknown.
A truly magnificent story of self discovery, acceptance and love. I loved seeing a strong female lead and despite usually loving dual perspectives, felt it flowed naturally and kept me hanging on every word wanting more.
Excerpt:
Finally, after so long, I feel good again...My friends and my chosen family have given me this feeling. They've given me comfort, understanding, the acknowledgement that I'm allowed to be me and the safety that comes with that choice....now I know that I don't always have to put up a wall to protect myself...
I can't wait to read more in what I hope will be a truly brilliant series.

Two guys & one girl
I was immediately hooked on Dazed, the writing had me captivated.
A college school setting with Laura and her roommate and immediately you are thrust into Laura's thoughts of her past and how she was once one of the popular girls in high school giving you a little bit of her background and the something that happened to her that changed it all, but now in college Laura has her friend and roommate, she study's hard and stays away from the in crowd's and parties and made a new start Laura is happy to a point.
When two new students start college and both happen to be hot brothers it has the girls in college buzzing but once both boys see Laura they both have their eyes on her for completely different reasons of their own but Laura doesn't like attention drawn to her anymore she even dresses differently from how she used to avoid attention and isn't interested in them but they see her.
Caden befriends Laura and it's just that, a friendship until for his own reasons he asks Laura to be his fake girlfriend.
A huge dilemma hits when Laura realises she has feelings for his brother Tarrent but has to keep their fake relationship secret and neither of them follows through with their feelings or attraction.
Torrent is a huge player, a complete opposite to his brother Caden, he's the bad boy with tattoos and the more Laura begins to see him with other girls it hurts but at the same time she wants to keep her promise to Caden and be the pretend girlfriend.
So as you can see there is a whole lot of complications and matters of the heart for these young adults. There are dramas, twists and turns, typical high school immaturity and all the character's frustrated me at some point.
I was a little disappointed this was a college read and more young adult, the cover screams hot and dangerous when in reality it's just teen dramas and life choices.
A good read but not what I expected.

I beta'd this book and then received it as an ARC which I was more than happy with.
I've read all of Maria's books and this by far is my top favourite.
Laura is a bit of an outcast, known as a social leper she has only let one person get close to her - Morgan, her best friend. That is until Caden Reigns comes into her life instantly lets him in trusting him completely. Caden is holding onto a big secret one that he shares with Laura. Her friendship and love for him shows no bounds when she agrees to keep his secret. Then she meets Tarrant. Caden's twin and her world crashes around her. Sexy tattooed bad boy that has every girl lusting after him. Fires burn bright and hearts fall deeper but only one person can make everything fall into place where they should be.
Maria opens up your heart and makes it hurt and want to burst with happiness all at the same time. The raw emotions crawl their way in and sit on your chest but you can't stop reading.
She made me fall in love with every single character, which for me is difficult in itself and I usually always find something not to like about one of the main characters. That wasn't the case for me this time. My heart bled for all of them and at times I laughed out loud.
Maria creates a perfect balanace, when you are sad at certain parts she will lift you up by making you laugh and then it starts all over again.
A huge, massive 5 stars from me. I couldn't recommend this book highly enough, I am now left with a book hangover wishing that I hadn't read it just so I can read it for the first time again.

Dazed was an exceptional quality written book. It is the first book I have read from Maria MacDonald, It grabbed my attention right away and I ended up reading it in one night. I couldn't put it down even if I wanted to. The storyline was amazing and the chemistry between Tarrant and Laura was sizzling. All the characters were always supportive and were always there for each other.
The friendship between Laura and Morgan was so unique and special it warmed my heart. Then when Caden came to school and became friends with Laura it was perfect. Tarrant was Cadens twin brother and he was the player while Caden was the sweet loving one. Tarrant and Laura had instant sparks from across the lunchroom cafeteria as soon as they saw each other. Selina comes between Tarrant and Laura throughout the book. It makes Laura jealous and fume with anger as she can't stand Selina.
This a standalone book. But there is a POV coming out for Tarrant’s side of the story. I look forward to reading that as I have fell in love with them all. I will definitely recommend this book to other readers in the future.

Amazing story!!
Maria was a new author to me, but when I heard about Dazed I was excited to read it, well I can tell you it was such an amazing read!! I loved Laura lots in this story...I loved how in the beginning she was this vulnerable girl...but by the end of the book, god could she stand up for herself.
Laura is a collage sweetheart who has not had a good time in her life, she guards herself well and doesn't let people in much, she meets Caden and a friendship blooms, she agrees to help him...but at the same time her feels for his brother develop, Tarrant is your typical looking bad boy, tattoos and I reputation for a player....one look is all it takes for feels like no other to develop between Laura and Tarrant.
I love the chemistry between these 2 characters, the way they fight there feelings cause Laura is supposedly off limits....Tarrant really is not going to stop at getting his girl....but will he go against his brother to do so!!
An absolutely wonderful story by Maria...one I loved from start to finish, it deserves the 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for sure. I hope we see more of all the of the characters in future books.

Fantastic, I loved the characters relationships and how they interacted with each other.
Laura/Lemon/Button was fun to read about, I liked how she grew within the book. At first I groaned a little when we have the initial introduction to her and her past and also how she was so closed off now. It came across as 'over done' as so many authors hit that route. But Maria really bought Laura alive to me, showed her who her friends were and about trust too. It was lovely to see the small changes in her.
The twins were both hot. I won't really go into them except to say they were fun to read about and I loved their relationships with Laura.
Few nice twists in this one, Some funny moments too plus when Laura finds her back bone again I was cheering for her inside. 4 stars, thoroughly enjoyed this one and can't wait to read the next book in the series.
*Also side note, this book didn't make me sad at all but that epilogue and song choice, I admit I got a lump in my throat only as it would be my song choice too.

I was captivated from the first chapter until the last one. I've read books from the author before and couldn't wait to dive into Dazed. I fell in love with the story with each written word. You could feel the chemistry between Tarrant and Laura but what captured me even more was Laura and Caden's relationship. You'll need to read the book to get what I mean :-)
Laura has been through her own personal hell a while back and has stayed away from anyone around her to get close. Even though Morgan is her best friend, she doesn't know everything about her past. But when she meets Caden, pieces will start falling together every step of the way forward. They become good friends and their bond gets tighter but nothing is as what it seems and when Caden's brother, Tarrant, gets more and more involved in her life, Laura will have to face everything when past and present collides...

Dazed is by far Maria Macdonalds best book. This book really was amazing, I was hooked from beginning to end.
I was definitely not prepared for Tarrant and Caden twin brothers, Tarrant was the bad boy, chip on his shoulder, covered in tattoos, he locks eyes with Laura from across the cafeteria and from that day their lives will not be the same again. He believes he's not good enough for sweet, sweet Laura, their chemistry is off the charts but they have to fight their feelings for each other. Caden is the sweetheart of the brothers and befriends Laura at a party, they become fast friends and eventually more. Appearances however are not what they seem, secrets will be told, friendships become stronger.
I cannot recommend this book enough, it's one of my favourite reads of 2017.....

A love triangle this may be in one way, with Laura's heart being pulled in two directions.. for two very different reasons - Twins Caden and Tarrant couldnt be any more different... college jock vs tattoed bad boy.. but only one makes her heart race. However, that said, this love triangle isnt all that it seems, with hidden secrets that aren't Laura's to tell she finds it harder and harder to resist Tarrant, but resist him she must until Caden is ready... because she made Caden a promise, and with her love loyalty comes first. I was gripped through each chapter - torn between wanting Laura to just do what her heart desired but respecting her for being a true friend. arc provided for an honest review.
