When Jaci Wright was growing up, she was warned by her father, the sheriff, and the town in general to stay away from Cameron Falladay. Drawn to him time and time again while growing up, it wasn’t until the day she found him in his beat up truck with a bottle of whiskey and a sadness that called to her. She begged him to wait for her to grow up and take the pain away.

After facing a grown-up Cam and the desires he thought she understood Jaci ran away, but is now back and in his sphere again. This time no one’s eyes are closed and when she starts a relationship with him the cards are on the table…well, most of them. They both have secrets and these two strong-willed people must let each other in before their pasts destroy their relationship or their lives.

Behind the walls of Ian Sinclair’s private club – anything goes. The club has been secret for generations and there is an implicitly understood rule—talk and be ruined. It’s within these confines that Lora Leigh brings us back to the Bound Hearts series. We’re able to revisit previous characters and situations, but at the core is the story of a damaged man trying to make something work with the only woman he’s ever trusted. The things that Cam had to deal with were heartbreaking and Jaci seems to be the perfect woman to help him, along with the love and participation of his twin brother Chase. Lora Leigh pens a steamy tale that has both heat and tenderness as well. I can only hope that she plans to revisit this club and tell Chase’s story in its entirety.
