This is an angsty, contemporary New Adult tale of a female photographer and her Irish racecar driving hero.
You saw the author's name, right? So you know that means the dirty talk is filthy and all over the place. TB's men always have a way with words that has me rereading the same paragraph three times as my heart pounds double-time.
Shane is no exception. He's somewhat mysterious and reserved, tortured, kind of a broody hero. Some of this impression comes from being only in the heroine's POV throughout the book (until the epilogue). I have to admit, I like this. I like being left in the dark as to the hero's feelings, and only seeing the glimpses he lets slip the cracks when he can't hold back. Shane can't hold back with Willa.
Willa believes something's wrong with her. She's no good with relationships. This is a very New Adult problem, so it might bother some. Not me. The emotions and sorrow were real, and that was all I needed to buy it. Willa and her sister have had a tough life. Now that her sister has found her man, Willa is a bit adrift. Winning a photo competition and a trip to Ireland sounds like a great way to get away from it all.
Only she runs straight into trouble as soon as she steps off the plane. Shane's family owns the inn where she'll be staying, but his master plan is to sell it, along with all its bad memories of his father, and continue his career as a racecar driver. He wants fewer ties to Ireland and his inn, not more.
So you see, it's impossible for them to be together. Both of them would have to totally change their most deeply held beliefs about themselves and the world. Are you getting this? It's an amazing story! Also, did I mention it's super sexy? 5 stars!
