Synopsis

Avery has just met her hot upstairs neighbor. He's irresistible. Tattooed. And a virgin.

Nursing student Avery Michaels wants nothing to do with dating—she's perfectly happy single. Privy to too many of her mother's bad decisions and even worse taste in boyfriends, all Avery can handle is a string of uncomplicated hookups whenever the mood strikes.

When she meets smoking hot tattoo artist Bennett, she wants him—for just one night. But he won't accept a no-strings-attached arrangement. He lives by a straight-laced code of values based on his own troubled upbringing.

Bennett sees something special in Avery and he wants more from her. Way more. As Avery wrestles with her emotions for Bennett, danger and tragedy force them to open up to each other. And Avery must face the terrifying realization that she wants more from him, too.

So she needs to make a choice—let Bennett go or finally let him in.

My Review

~ Love is like a loaded gun. You slid your bullet inside the cold metal chamber as a safeguard for the inevitable day that everything went to shit. At the fist sign of trouble, you blew your opponent to pieces, long before their finger found the trigger. ~

That's what Nursing student, Avery Michaels mother has taught her.
She wants nothing to do with love —she's perfectly happy single. All Avery can handle uncomplicated sex.

When she meets smoking hot Tattoo artist Bennett, she wants him, only just for one night.
Avery has never met a guy that won't accept a no-strings-attached arrangement.
Bennett, lives by a straight-laced code of values. His own upbringing affecting the way he sees relationships.

But Avery is different. He is drawn to her. He sees more than what she portrays. But his values are what have him from holding back.
He wants more but won't settle for any less than what he believes in.
They start up a friendship, they have explosive chemistry and constantly find themselves in the heat of the moment.

Avery knows this is dangerous. She respects Bennetts decisions to hold off on a sexual relationship, but can't seem to walk away.
Avery needs to decide if she is going to let Bennett go, or let go of the walls she holds up to protect herself.

~ Because I was so not ready for someone as amazing as Bennett Reynold. And I never would be. I was fucked up, and it wouldn't take him long to figure that out and hit the road. ~

Bennett manages to break down her walls and starts getting deeper.
It scares her. She doesn't know how to deal with the closeness that he brings or the emotions that he evokes.

"They don't make me feel anything. Not one. Damn. Thing." I shove against his chest and his face crumpled. "But you…. You already own a piece of me. Don't you get it? I yelled, stumbling back.

Bennett makes her feel alive and helps her let go of the darkness that holds her back. She has no control over how he is slowly beginning to hold her heart.

~ As I sat there listening to him, something profound happened in the very centre of me. Stuff began rearranging and clicking into place. My heart burst through my chest and landed at Bennett's feet- asking, pleading, begging him to smooth out her creases, sooth all her wounded parts and med her shattered centre. ~

When Avery's past comes back and puts her back in danger, she finds herself holding on to the one man that she trusts with all her heart, giving her the strength to face her fears and move forward from the one thing that has always held her back.

~ He has somehow embedded himself beneath my skin, made me feel secure and protected, and here I was telling him one of my deepest, darkest secrets. ~

I loved this. Bennett was so hot and sweet. I haven't read a lot of books with a Virgin Hero, but the ones I have read I absolutely loved! There is just something about it. And Bennett is no different.
Their 1st time, was so hot! You feel their Passion.

I can't wait for more from this author. She really has a way with words. Normally, NA can be a hit or miss for me. But do enjoy it when it's hits all the right spots.
Christina Lee definitely hits all the right spots.
Definitely give this one a go, you won't be disappointed.

~ There's a kind of love that's unhealthy all- consuming. You give up entirely who you are for that other person.And the other kind of love is freeing. It allows yo to be your best self. Your seamless when you're with the person you love unfathomably- but never invisible. ~
