The danger and lies are more than she can handle.
Shea O’Bannon feels like a fifth wheel around her romantically paired-off friends, but there’s too much slime in the dating pool for her to bother with it. Then she sees her two-timing ex, Trevor Madero, serenading the mostly female crowd at a live-music bar. God knows trouble follows him around, but her desire for him rushes back in anyway. After he rescues her from a handsy drunk, temptation takes over.
Determined to prove he never stepped out on Shea, Trevor slides back into her life—and her heart—with forever in mind. Even with the wall he keeps up to protect her, his secret criminal life weighs heavy on his soul and drives a wedge between them.
When the truth comes out and his enemies target them both, they’ll have to fight for their love, or kiss it goodbye.

It was four months ago that Shea O’Bannon met Trevor Madero and after only two weeks of dating she caught him kissing another woman bringing an end to their relationship. When she accepted an invitation from one of her co-workers for drinks, she is shocked to find Trevor serenading the women at a bar and as soon as he leaves the stage, she leaves.
When Trevor meets up with Shea outside the bar and explains what happened with the other woman, she is embarrassed for not letting him explain before dumping him. Her feelings for Trevor and his feelings for her had not cooled down and it looks like they finally have a chance at a permanent relationship. Unfortunately, Trevor is keeping secret the fact that he belongs to Onyx and although he doesn’t directly deal drugs he does drops and collects money.
Shea’s dad left her, and her mom and she soon discovered he was a criminal, Trevor’s father stole from Onyx and was killed so their pasts are very similar, their present not so much. Trevor continued in his father’s footsteps and Shea works for a news station and is determined to put her father’s criminal life behind her. Their relationship is strong, but Shea knows that Trevor is keeping something from her and when she finds out what it is will, she stand by him or move on.
Trevor’s lies are finally revealed but despite his desire to marry Shea and have children, a dog and the white picket fence, his criminal life would be a constant danger to her. He is willing to overlook all the inherent problems that being with Shea would cause, she is not sure it is something she can live with. She knows what her mother suffered because of her father’s criminal past, and she is hesitant to face what her mom did.
This book was filled with romance, sex, suspense, secrets and lies. Trevor and Shea come to realize that their pasts are connected, how I won’t reveal.
Thank you for reading, Linda!
