Quinn
Salisbury doesn't think she's cut out for this whole living thing. Even as a
young girl she struggled. Just when she thinks she's found a way to leave her
violent past behind her, the only thing that's kept her going is ripped away,
leaving her damaged and heartbroken.
Four
years later, she is slowly rebuilding her life and lands a job as an assistant
band manager to Jamieson, the hot new Australian act climbing their
way to the top of the charts. There she meets Travis Valentine, the charismatic
older brother of her boss, Mac.
From
his commanding charm to his confidence and passion, Travis is everything Quinn
believes is too good for her, and despite her apprehension, she finds their
attraction undeniable and intense.
When
her past resurfaces, it complicates their relationship. Instead of reaching out
for help, Quinn pushes Travis away, until a staggering secret is revealed that
leaves her fighting for her very life.
Torn
between running and opening her heart to the man determined to have her, can
Quinn find the strength within herself to fight for her future?

Review
I LOVED this story. I
started it and I couldn’t put it down! While I enjoyed the first in this
series, there was something about this specific book that I just loved and
couldn’t tear myself away from it. Kate McCarthy had a way with this story that
just drew me in right from the beginning. Instantly, I was softened towards
Quinn and wanted to be her biggest cheerleader. Likewise, I was instantly drawn
to Travis and he could’ve had me at any time!
The writing throughout
this story is fabulous. It keeps your attention and your focus without being
overly dramatic. There was enough variation throughout the story that you
couldn’t really predict what the next move would be. That Jamieson crew is
something else… a something else that anyone would be lucky to be a part of.
While there is a slight variation in ‘language’ due to the author being
Australian, it wasn’t so much that it was confusing or hindered the story at
all!
This was a definite 5-star
read for me!

About the Author
Kate McCarthy grew up in a small town outside of
Port Macquarie, Australia. Raised in a house just a short walk to the beach,
Kate enjoyed the peaceful, relaxed atmosphere and friendships that come from
being raised in a friendly, small town area.
She now resides in Brisbane, Australia, a city in
the state of Queensland where she works as an accountant, along with a sideline
wedding cake business and her writing.
She is married with two children, has two dogs and
house in the suburbs, and a pile of friends and family dotted all over the
country that help keep her sane.
When she’s not busy running after naughty kids,
filthy dogs, crunching numbers, piping buttercream and writing books, you can
find her curled up in bed in the early hours of the morning reading new books
and re-reading old favourites. Her favourite books are the Black Dagger
Brotherhood series by J.R. Ward in which she longs to eventually join the
brotherhood and change her name to Phierce Mutha.
