Synopsis
Before Lynae, my heart was just sitting lifeless in my chest. I wasn't living. I've hidden away the shame and the regret for so long, that I never thought anyone could break through. She did that, and so much more.
I need Lynae more than I need air to breathe. She is everything to me. The night Lynae walked into my life, I knew that I would never be the same. My heart started to feel again.
Now that I've pushed her away, the walls that I had built stand to destroy us. I have to get her back. I can't live without her.
She is the one thing in this world that can make my heart beat.

My Review
Make my heart beat is
the second book in Liz King’s Shameful Regret series; it picks up right where
the first book left off. This book still has the same narrative style as the
first with you being able to get in heads of both Connor and Lynae but this is
more Connors’s story than anything. Connor is a tattooed, pierced rocker by
night and a mechanic by day but boy oh boy does this man love hard. He is
fighting some deep seeded demons regarding his sister, the first book touches
upon this but this time we get the full heartbreaking, gut wrenching story.
Trying to keep the demons
at bay with alcohol has costed him everything he had with Lynae including the
future family that they are now starting. He has to walk through hell while
trying to win Lynae’s heart back. The journey had me bawling my eyes out and
screaming at my kindle while at the same time laughing along with all the gang
from Shameful Regret.
I loved every minute of this journey with Connor, Lynae and
the rest of the crew. I hope that she continues to share their lives with us
because I have a feeling there is so much more to learn about them all!

EXCERPT
My mind is swirling with memories of
last night. She came. She actually came here to see me. She let me hold her,
touch her, kiss her, claim her. Lynae’s sweet scent assaults my senses. I need
to feel her against my body. I reach out to find her, but my hand only lands on
cold empty sheets. My eyes pop open, completely awake now.
“Lynae?” I call out.
I sit up in my bed. My empty bed.
Looking around the room, I don’t see her, and her pants that I know were tossed
on the floor next to mine are gone. Sunlight is filtering in through the
blinds. I glance at the clock, noticing it's after nine in the morning. Maybe
she's in the kitchen. I know how she likes her coffee first thing in the
morning. Please, dear God, let her be in the fucking kitchen.
I toss my legs over the side of the
bed and grab my shorts off the floor. Standing up, I stretch my arms over my
head and make my way out into the living room. I don’t even have to look around
to know she’s not here. I can’t feel her presence. I can always sense her.
Instead of finding the one thing in this world that makes my life worth living,
I find the one thing that I want to pummel into the ground, sitting on my
couch.
“What the fuck are you doing here?” I
growl.
Seth stands up. He looks like
absolute shit, like he’s been sitting there all fucking night. “Listen, dude,
I’m really sorry about everything.” Seth is holding is hands up. “But I need to
ask you something.”
Lynae must have gotten up, seen
asshat sitting here and left. She was obviously pissed at him yesterday, since
she apparently ran away from him crying, according to Wade. This gives me even
more reason to want to kick Seth’s ass the hell out of my apartment, garage and
life. “I don’t have time for this shit. Get out.”
