I felt like the author umm forgot words like “the” and “I” so it made it hard to follow. I read for the love of the characters but constantly alluding to the worst things that happened for half the book was not my thing.
Thoughts:
I’m obsessed with Trent and Eden. The angst and suspense was just elite. It starts off with Eden needing to make extra money, and she waits on Trent to interview for a server position. I loved this little meetup. He’s such a bad boy type with ties to a motorcycle gang, and she’s the preacher’s daughter who’s also a teacher. Perfect duo. Definitely gives ’touch her and you die vibes’.
Plot: Trent has been stowed away in this town to keep away from his past life. He’s raising his son as a single dad with the help of his brothers. Tent is the owner of the local biker bar, where he meets Eden. Eden’s family has come across some financial hardships, and she will do anything to keep her dad out of financial turmoil. She in turn goes to the biker bar to get a server job to help her father. Relentless, she stays until Trent shows up to plead for the job. The moment he saw her, he knew this was no place for her and that there was a pull to her. Still, he hires her. The first night is a rough night, and he thinks she will quit. The next day when he takes his son to school, he finds that his son’s new teacher is none other than Eden. Convenient. Now she works for him and teaches the son. Trouble arises from Trent’s past, and it starts to threaten their relationship that had formed.

Trent has lost so much in his life. His mom and his twin. But he gained a son. But still he struggled with accepting that he wasn't his past.
Eden too had lost so much. Her mom, her husband and in a way her sister. Her sister who stole everything from their dad and put them and the church/school in danger.
It's crazy how live throws people in your path. Just when you think you can't do better or be better, one person can change everything.

The writing style is what did it for me. I liked Trent Lawson as a character, Eden, not so much. *yawn*… the constant inner monologues took up too much space as well as the descriptions of everything. It was just too much going on to fill up the pages. I’ll just have to read the spoilers to find out what happened.

Trent is definitely not my usual hero, someone with so many demons and skeletons in his closet. But there I was, falling hook, line and sinker for him. Because he is so much more than what you see on the outside – at his heart he is a protector and a warrior. “He deserves someone who will see him for who he really is, Eden. Not for what he’s done.”. I loved Eden; her determination and bravery and her ability to see the goodness in people despite the heartache she has been through in her life. She has such a huge heart that she gives to others even with the risk of having it broken again.
Trent and Eden are almost as opposite as they come and for a while I couldn't work out how AL Jackson could make them fit together but she did, perfectly. The tension and chemistry between them is intense.
I loved Trent’s brothers (can’t wait to get to their books) and his son Gage is absolutely adorable. There were some twists and turns in Trent and Eden’s journey that I didn’t see coming. My first book by AL Jackson and definitely not my last.

I am not even gonna rate this because idek what to rate it.
The writing is overly flowery sort of weird like just too much going. It took me out of story multiple times and I just can’t imagine a man talking like that. Story wise this is not bad but if you are picky about writing then this is probably not for you.

Honestly, the first thing that made me read this book was the cover! It is probably my most favorite cover ever!! I bought the book just for that reason alone.
Now onto the book, I really enjoyed it and am glad the cover drew me in. I loved Trent. He was an alpha male who was strong, brash, rough around the edges...but really sweet on Eden. He wanted to deny his attraction to her (and her to him), but it happened anyways. There were twists and turns in this book that I didn't see coming, and was shocked a few times.
Eden is such a sweetheart. She is all that's good, and is only trying to save the school her dad runs. Her sister is no good, but she still wants to try to see the good in her. She is wholesome and that never changes, I like that about her. She helps soften Trent some, it makes them perfect together.
I definitely enjoyed this book, and the second one too. Looking forward to book 3!
