I knew Connor Vincent had a story to tell. Connor with his addictions and his big heart. He has an artist soul who just feels so much around him. He sees things different than you and I but it’s messy and has cost him the love of his life.


Connor had a less than perfect life. An abusive father and a mother who left them behind he coped the best way he knew how. His first addiction was Ava a girl in high school who Killian stood up for but Connor became her best friend and her first love. Suddenly he turned to drugs and Ava was left in the dust holding her shattered heart. They cross paths occasionally always regretting it in the morning. He flees and finds himself in some trouble that will most likely follow him home. Now sober and ready to make amends with Killian and confront his past and take his future by the horns and make something of himself but not just for himself he hopes to win Ava back.


Ava Christensen had a good life with a controlling mother who always used the I just want what’s best for you excuse. Ava was a wild card but when she endured something that no fourteen-year-old girl should have happen she shrank into herself. It’s here she meets Connor and Killian and finds the love of her life. Things were good she loved Connor with the burning of a thousand suns but that burned out quick. Now she’s just trying to live her life and it’s going well until Connor walks back into the bar and into everyone’s life like he didn’t disappear, and he doesn’t have a book of secrets. They tentatively step back into the waters and try give things a go. Ava isn’t so trusting with her heart, but can she really stand by Connor even with his book of secrets?


I have loved Connor since I started this series which was oddly book three. They can be read as standalones so it’s all good. I’m glad that Connor tried to do something right. He was just a tortured lost soul. His fight with his battle and his self-worth was sad to watch. Ava lord that girl I liked her! She has tenacity she knew what she wanted, and she did it. I’m so glad I stumbled upon this series I really enjoyed it!
