Good

Out of all the books in the Bleeding Stars series that I've read so far, this one is my favourite. Not really sure why, but it's the one that once I got into it, I had trouble putting it down.

Ash is the wild ladies man in the band, Sunder. He's a lover of women, but never the same one twice...no feelings unless it's just in feeling good. Unfortunately his encounter with the wrong woman gets him a beat down from a group of dudes who basically leave him for dead. And then a lovely shop owner comes to his rescue.

Willow is a struggling antique shop owner. She's lonely and been burned in love, but something awakens inside her as soon as she lays eyes on the bloody mess that is Ash. He makes her an offer that's tough to refuse in gratitude, but is it more than she can take? She won't be another random hookup.

This story dealt with some heavy emotions featuring a lot of guilt and the games we play with ourselves that stop us moving forward with our lives. We deserve happiness and love, even if we've made mistakes in the past.

Yeah, this book captured me in its spell. I loved it.
