What Damien values…
…Damien fights for.
Alannah Ryan had always suffered in silence, until that silence became so deafening she spilled secrets that she never intended to. At one point in her life, she yearned for adventure, a nail biting journey … something other than the mundane life she led. Her pleas were answered in the form of a tall, handsome heart breaker with a mop of white hair.
Alannah’s dreams for an exciting twist in her life were shattered because of a teenage mistake. One that has haunted her for over five years, and left her in pieces.
Damien Slater was the reason for every bad thing in the lives of those he loved most. A decision he made when he was just fifteen destroyed his brothers’ lives, and there was nothing he could do to change the things they had endured. Ruining them hurt, but ruining the only woman who wanted him for more than one night hurt a hell of a lot more.
Running away helped Damien heal, and returning to Ireland only caused Alannah more pain. Pain he intended to eradicate and replace with the passion he knew they both shared. Breaking down her walls was not the only challenge Damien faced. Another had plans of his own, and his intentions weren’t for physical vengeance, but something far worse.
Damien values Alannah above all else, and what Damien values, Damien fights for.

“Little bastard,” Alec said, breaking the silence.
Everyone looked at him.
“What?” Damien asked.
“You’re a little bastard,” Alec repeated.
Damien looked at Dominic, then back to Alec and said, “Not understanding why I’m a bastard.”
“Little bastard.”
Damien’s lips twitched at Alec’s correction.
“Sorry, I don’t understand why you’re calling me a little bastard.”
Alec scowled. “Isn’t it obvious?”
“No,” everyone said in unison.
“Unbelievable,” Alec said with a shake of his head. “You’re a little bastard because you bought the woman a star. A fucking star. How the hell can we compete with that?”
The question was put to Kane.
“Buy your girl two stars?” he suggested.
Alec scoffed. “It wouldn’t be impressive since buying a star has been already been done by the little bastard.”
“You could buy me a black hole,” Keela suggested. “I get sucked into one whenever you start talkin’ so it’d be perfect.”

Four Stars
I have loved watching this family
grow over the years and now we finally get Alannah and Damien’s story.
These two have been a main fixture
of the series since book 1, and to see their story unfold was exhilarating.
Alannah has been in love with
Damien since she was 18. Damien feels like he doesn’t deserve the good in life,
so he pushes Alannah away after he takes her virginity. Damien leaves the
country for several years after that incident. Now he’s back and Alannah is
holding a grudge. She still feels the connection between them, but she will
never put herself in a position to get her heart broken again.
Damien’s character has grown so
much since we first met him in Dominic. He has gone from the lost, damaged soul
who used women to cope to a determined, caring man who knows what he wants out
of life and is willing to wait.
Alannah still the sweet, shy best
friends that everyone loves and gets along with. However, she still has her
moments of fear and self-doubt. It is the moments where she gets a backbone and
becomes the strong, independent woman who will take up for herself and everyone
she cares about that were my favorite. Seeing her mature the way she did was
such a fun ride.
The ending of this book totally
wrapped things up. You get the closure you are looking for when it comes to
this family, and you really get to see and understand their level of love and
commitment for one another.
I cannot wait to read Alannah and
the spin off series that will follow this book!
