Summary
He’s content to stay in the shadows…

Ewan McKenna’s days and nights are filled with drink orders, beer kegs, and noisy bar customers. Now that he’s put his tumultuous past behind him, he’s more than happy to live a solitary existence running his family’s pub. After years of walking the line between good and bad, Ewan now needs control and order to rest peacefully at night. What he doesn’t need is the fiery, intriguing woman who’s found her way into his thoughts and his bed.

She’s ready to step back into the light…

Spending the summer getting her hands dirty in her aunt’s garden in a tiny town outside Boston is exactly what Quinn Adler needs. She’s ready to shake off the grief of losing the people who meant the most to her and to start feeling again. What she doesn’t expect is to find a man who sets all her senses on fire. When the pieces seem to be nearly in place for a bright future, everything falls apart.

Will Quinn’s love be bright enough to cut through the darkness of Ewan’s past?

My Review
Book given for an honest review on Netgalley. 
It's a new author! And I think I'm in love! this story was just amazing!!

This book has it all, extremely hot tortured soul guy who is a great man underneath it all; beautiful, talented and loving leading lady; and some thrilling mafia action lurking in the edge of the story line just to keep us on our toes.

Oh and don't forget the steamy hot sex scenes!

The main characters are fun to read about, with their constant banter and the connection they had that couldn't been faked, they were just a perfect match.

The story was entertaining and captivating, I didn't want to put the book down, almost fell asleep on my kindle trying to pull an all-nighter, but I finished it and I'm feeling a bit of book hangover.

They made me cry a little, it was inevitable, I was able to really connect with the characters and their deep and dark secrets. So when the moment came for their true feelings to be revealed, the water work was a given.

The main issue in the book is the fact that sometimes the hardships of our pasts give us a feeling of unworthiness that is really hard to overcome, and we encounter a huge difficulty when it's time to put the barriers down. Nobody wants to be hurt, and those who know how intense the sting of the pain is, have a moment of uncertainty when it comes to letting people in.

This is a story of true love, of letting go of the pain and allowing ourselves to feel again, the outcome is so much sweeter than the feeling of emptiness and what ifs.

Simply amazing!
