Will their past determine their future?

Saint Ford has worked hard to achieve her childhood dream of becoming of nurse. Focused on her work and devoted to her patients, there’s no room for love. She doesn’t need a guy making waves in her calm, serene life—especially when he’s the unforgettable hottie who nearly destroyed her in high school. Dark, brooding Nash Donovan might not remember her or the terrible pain he caused. But he turned her world upside down . . . and now he’s trying to do it again.

Saint has no idea that Nash isn’t the cocky player he once was. Uncovering a devastating family secret has rocked his world, and now he’s struggling to figure out his future. He can’t be distracted by the pretty nurse he seems to meet everywhere. Still, he can’t ignore the sparks that fly between them —or how she seems so desperate to get away from him. But the funny, sweet, and drop-dead gorgeous Saint is far too amazing to give up on—especially since she’s the only thing in his life that seems to make sense.

When Nash discovers the truth about their past, he realizes he may have lost her heart before he could even fight for it. Now, Saint has to decide: is Nash worth risking herself for all over again?

“He told me he would teach me how to do what he did. Tattooing always seemed like a cool thing to me, and when he offered to show me and Rule what art was really about and how to put all our feelings of being cast out to creative use, it was what stopped my free fall.” -Nash Donovan

“… the idea that that was how he saw me… sexy, beautiful, and in control… I didn’t want to let it go.” -Saint Ford

Tina’s Thoughts…

It goes without saying that we are die hard fans of Jay Crownover’s Marked Men series. It started off with Rule, got better with Jet and Rome, and just keeps going with Nash. This book is a tsunami of emotions. I did not stop reading it once I started, I had to finish the whole book to make sure everyone was good in the end. It drags you around (in the best way possible) and leaves you raw, wanting more and feeling deeply. Nash’s story picks right up where Rome’s ended with Phil in the hospital. It was so sad watching Phil struggle with cancer throughout this book. He is the patriarch of the sewn together family that is the foundation of the Marked Men series. Nash struggles to come to terms with Phil’s diagnosis and the final revelation of truth of his father, as well as his mixed emotions in regards to Saint Ford.

Saint broke my heart. She is a successful woman who is tied to so much pain and heartache in her past. It was so sad and at times frustrating to see her process her life and relationship with Nash. Her preconceived notions of self-worth are challenged, torn down and truth begins to take root in her life. It was such a painful thing to witness but so wonderful to see the end result, a strong and beautiful woman who stands tall in every aspect of her life. I loved the spark between Nash and Saint. It is sexy as all get up and so confusing sometimes. Poor Nash. Watching him try to make sense of Saint while dealing with Phil’s cancer and managing the tattoo shop made me feel like my head was spinning for him. Yet some of the love greatest stories are ones full of passion, confusion, loss and second chances, as Jay so wonderfully writes.

Fans of Rule, Jet and Rome will have more to look forward to! You will see the whole gang and watch as their lives continue to progress while new friends are added to the mix. This series keeps getting better and better. I cannot wait for Rowdy’s story and seeing what happens with the gang. Make sure to check this book out! And if you haven’t read the Marked Men series, then you are definitely missing out. Add it to your book list and get ready for an incredibly sexy and heartfelt adventure!

I’m supposed to share interesting details about myself so that my readers get to know me so here we go in no particular order: I’m an natural redhead even though I haven’t seen my real hair color in years, I’m a big fan of tattoos and have a half sleeve on either arm and various other pieces all over the place, I’ve been in the bar industry since I was in college and it has always offered interesting insight into how men and women interact with each other, I have 3 dogs that are all crazy, I live in Colorado and love the snow, I love music and in all reality wish I could be a rock star not a writer or a bartender but I have zero talent so there is that. I love to write, love to read and all I’m interested in is a good story with interesting characters that make the reader feel something. Thanks for taking the time to check my stuff out…
