Xander Evans has been on the road for many years. Never settling. Always moving from one place to another, unable to let go of his past. He lived a tragic childhood, spending most of those years in foster care. He's never felt like he's had a home. That is until he stops in the small town of Truman Valley, Missouri, where he meets a woman who will change everything he's ever known.
Paige Watson has it all. A loving family, beautiful home, and a great career. The only thing she's missing....is love. After escaping an abusive relationship, she opens her heart up to a stranger. He is unlike any man she's ever met. He came into her life and turned it completely upside down. Everything is perfect. That is, until one fateful night.
A night that would tear the Watson family apart, never to be put back together again.
A night that would send Xander away to prison for life.
My Review
First off I would like to say I received this book from the author in return for my honest opinions. All opinions are on my own and no compensation has been given.
I have to admit that when I started the book I was a little confused as to what was going on and I don't think that I like how it starts off in the present tense and then moves forward into how he got to be where he is in the first place. Now I will also go on to say that once I understood the situation and really got into the reasons that he was behind bars it all made a little bit more sense because I love being in the know. I will also say that even though in the beginning I wasn't as into the book The More I read the more into it I got. Towards the middle of the book I would say is where my rating went up from 3 to 4 stars and it will stay that way for the rest of the book. I really liked the in-depth details that we got about everything, I will say that the author is very good with filling in the blanks and not leaving us guessing and wondering what the hell happened.
Overall I would say that this is a very good read and it is also the first book by this author that I have read and with what this book has left me with...which is my four star rating... that only leads me to believe that I will be reading more by this author soon.

"He was over here for like five hours last night drinking and talking with Dad. You think I like him? My dad's in love. And the way he didn’t hesitate to put Benji in his place, I just think Dad’s got a good feeling about him."
"Shit, I've got a good feeling about him too... and it's in my panties." She laughs and motions toward her crotch. "If I had been working and saw him do that to Benji's fat ass, I would've let him fuck me right on top of the bar…and I would’ve let everyone watch."
"Brandi!"
"I'm serious. Fuck it!”
"You're ridiculous."
"Paige, don't tell me you didn't notice that anaconda stuffed into his jeans?"
"What?! What the fuck are you talking about? Anaconda? I wasn't looking at his damn jeans." I laugh, finding it hard to not to love this girl who has become like a sister to me. She's the craziest bitch I know, but she's got my back no matter what. She's had it since day one.
"Why wouldn’t you look at his jeans? That’s where his dick is!”
