My rating: 2 of 5 stars
Ashlyn is a sophomore student at Harvard and often frequents the bar where Joseph works. Joseph has lusted after her from afar but after an incident, he feels he can no longer stay away from her and so he intervenes. From that point forward they cannot stay away from each other and start on a fairly intense relationship. But Joseph's past comes rushing in when his friend Marco finds him plus it appears that their enemies who about her too. And so after a sudden disappearance by Joseph Marco drugs and kidnaps Ashlyn saying that it is for her own protection. They say that they need to keep her there else their enemies will capture her and use her in the most horrible of ways but it takes time for her to learn to trust Joseph again. Can she accept her new normal and can they keep her safe?
Parts of me enjoyed this story and part of me did not. The enjoyable parts were the initial relationship between Ashlyn and Joseph as well as how it changed after she was kidnapped. I also liked Marco and feel that there are a lot of levels within his personality with all of his interests. I did find Ashlyn a little naive and sheltered which was at odds with her ability to live away from home at college without parental help. I did find the length of this book strange as it meant that it felt like an abrupt ending and a too obvious pull towards getting the next book in the series as it felt a little too short and abbreviated in places. Contains some mature content.
