Casey has been discharged from the Marine Corps after injuries sustained in the war. He is living with his cousin, Sean, who is dating Alexa's daughter. Casey is attracted to Alexa and she is to him but she is older and is freaked out by the attraction and weird that her daughter and his cousin are dating. I like Alexa and Casey. Casey has his work cut out for him to make Alexa understand and accept what he feels will not go away. Alexa is used to being in control of her life and emotions. She is the one others have leaned on. Now with Casey nothing is under control. The secondary characters are a fantastic. Her friends, Regina and Lauren, help and hinder her. I loved her assistant, Sydney. He is a blast! I could picture him as he doles out advice. This got better as it went along and I look forward to the next book in the series. |
