Izzy left Broadshire Rim and vowed to never return when Maxon Chambers broke her heart and shattered her world 13 years ago. But time and life have a way of changing plans, and when Izzy returns home after so long, it isn’t long until she’s faced with her heart break all over again.

Maxon Chambers grew up from the troubled kid he was back then. A detective now, he does his best to leave his past where it belongs. But when Izzy returns to Broadshire Rim, all those feelings he thought he put behind him come back in force.

These two have chemistry that has never been settled, a history that is unfinished. As they move forward in the present they have to face their past and face the issues that have kept them apart for so long.

I loved nearly every moment of this book. Izzy is a fighter, despite her run at their initial breakup and she has a lot to fight for in her life. Her determination to do things right and protect not only her heart but the people she loves shines bright.

The flashback scenes gives us a clear picture of Mack’s situation growing up, more than I thought possible based on who he is now and everything I thought I knew about him from when we met him in More of You and All of Me. Those flashbacks were probably the biggest heartbreak moments for me - bigger than when Mack and Izzy hash out what happened to cause their breakup.

Mack will do everything in his power to protect Izzy, even if it means keeping her at arms length. He never worried about his own protection until Izzy returned, but now he has something to focus on besides his career. And there is definitely something shaddy going on involving his job and a potential threat. He is protective, and has suppressed many of the emotions he felt about Izzy for so long that he has a lot of guilt to deal with on top of everything else.

Returning to the group of Mack’s friends was a homecoming and I loved seeing Ian and Jace settled in their lives and pushing Mack to follow his heart finally. Mistakes, second chances, heartbreak and hope, this book had everything!

His head rocked back and forth, his body shaking, shoulders pumping up and down.

“Izzy,” he murmured, so low, my name a needy groan.

“Maxon.” I shouldn’t have said it because it came out sounding like a plea.

“Little Bird,” he whispered, his lips featherlight where he painted the words along the length of my jaw.

A gasp left me on a breath as a riot of sensation erupted. Tingles streaked, gooseflesh rising in an undulating wave.

“So pretty,” he mumbled.

He exhaled a breath that became mine.

Our noses brushed.

Back and forth.

Back and forth.

Oh, God, what was he doin’?

Flames flickered beneath the bare caress. The man my fire, my cold body begging to come alive under his scorching touch.

I whimpered, sagging against the wall when he stroked his hands down my sides and slipped them under my dress, palms riding up the outside of my thighs.

Better question was what I was doing. But there was no reason. No sanity in the middle of this.

No logic where heartbreak and hope met.

“You are so fucking sexy.” His confession was a growl. Deep and dark. “Do you have any idea what it was like sitting across from you all night? What it was like waking up with you asleep in my chair? Like staring at the sun, knowing you’ll go blind if you look for too long, and knowing taking in that beauty for even a second would be worth it.”

He nudged forward, erasing the space between us, and his hands spread wider.

Desire raced. A flashflood of need that shivered across my flesh.

His mouth traced the shell of my ear. “Want to stare at you forever. Get lost. Take you. Possess you. How’s it possible you’re here, Little Bird? You came back to me. Feel like I’m dreaming.”

“It was you who didn’t want me.”

His hands tightened on my thighs, tugging me forward against his hard body, eyes pinned on me. “There’s never been a single day in my life when I didn’t want you. We are endless.”
