Sweet Obsession
by D.A. Young
Strong Great story
The Sullivan brothers were shaped by the murder/ suicide of their mother Moira by their father. With the help of Alexei and Vivian Romankov, and Dr. Kraus, they grew up to be strong, successful independent men, except where it came to love. The legacy their father left on them, almost kept them from finding and keeping true love. That's what happened to each one of the brothers, but especially Jackson. He knew when he first saw Noelle Kramer that she would be his, but the ghost of his father's obsession with his mother kept him at a distance. But, when the chance came to rescue her, he did not hesitant. But he omitted some truths to her and when she found out, he could not take the rejection. He almost lost her but ended up gaining the most happiest time of his life with her forgiveness and love.
His brothers Darby and Casey had their own love interests that were not going as they planned either. The death of Moira also affected the marriage of her best friend and her husband. Vivian, after all these years, still could not forgive "Lexie" for not going to Moira's aid before it was too late. He more than made up for it by helping to raise her sons. But he was still very much in love with his estranged wife and so wanted to reunite with her.
I just loved the relationships the brothers had with each other and their friends of Whiskey Row. Noelle, Sidra, and Avery had a very tight and supportive bond as well. I can't wait to see how the other two brothers get their lady loves now that the oldest and found his HEA.
I can't wait to read the next book in the series. The twist and turns of the plot were enough to make me scratch my head. I just loved the banter between the brothers and their buddies. Also, Noelle and her girlfriends remind me of how most close women are with each other. The author tells an in-depth and eye-opening story of how domestic abuse affects others in a way that lasts a lifetime even long after the abuser is long gone. I'm hoping to see that Jackson's brothers are able to see that they are worthy of love too and get their HEA as well, along with Avery and Sidra.
