Violet Marcus’s life is settled. She has it all: a place of her own, a business where her temper has its uses, and great people who work for her.
But something is missing. The problem is, her stubbornness refuses to admit how lonely she actually is.
She lost the one man she thought she could marry, a university love, but when their careers drive them in different directions they went their separate ways.
Now he’s back.
He’s also changed.
Unsure if she wants to hug him or throat punch him, she keeps her distance. Or tries to.
Travis Stewart moves to Ballarat for one reason—to have Violet back in his life. His love has never diminished. Not through the years, the distance, or even in the underworld he finds himself a part of.
He will always love her.
Now he just has to convince Violet that his heart is hers, and his soul isn’t as black as it seems.
His mission is simple: get Violet to understand they have a future together before getting kneed in the balls. Easy, especially as he refuses to be outplayed.
Review
So glad these two got a book my only complaint is that it wasn't longer! I'd have loved to have seen how they met but to be honest i can never get enough of this series so i expected i would want more!
Violet can be as volatile as her brother but i loved her! She does go off on one and she takes the space she needs but does eventually think about things and does the right thing. She was right to be wary of Travis. Without knowing the background anyone would be the same but i loved how once she knew she got it. She got the whys and i loved how she accepted it.
Travis was perfect for her because he would never give up. She needed someone who would let her have her space but also wouldn't let her get away with it for too long. I felt sorry for both of them at points for all the wasted time but then i guess we wouldn't have had adorable Izzy if they would have stayed together. I also loved how he was prepared to do anything to keep her. He made me swoon!
This was a great addition to the series. It filled some gaps and made me super happy. Being a novella there wasn't a big storyline and we'd seen some of it but i loved it just the same. This series is unbelievable and i highly recommend it to anyone. It's amazing and i never want it to end!
