Alternate Cover Edition B008QF051A
Her heart was guarded…
Tormented by self-imposed guilt, Dr. Lena O’Donnell has spent the last nine years in survival mode. Struggling through days that seem to blend together and battling her way through each horrifying night, she’s determined that this is what she deserves…
Until he tore down the walls…
Mason Langley’s life is going exactly the way he planned it, until her. A confirmed bachelor and the successful owner of the hottest restaurant to hit Chicago, he never expects to be blindsided by an angry woman in a pair of scrubs. No matter how hard he tries, he can’t seem to shake the doctor, and he finds himself liking the way she makes him feel.
Almost over night Lena finds her world turned upside down by Mason and the sexual desire they discover together. Slowly, she lowers her guard and invites him inside but when tragedy strikes she begins to believe that sometimes it’s better to be alone and safe than to love and lose.

My Review...
Let's start with I love Mason. What's not to love since you all know I am a sucker for the player going straight for love.
Right from the beginning as soon as Mason meets Lena he is done. Aaaahh! but it was not an easy battle with all of Lena's demons but Mason was going to help slay them for her.
You not only fall for Mason but you fall for his whole extended family and it brings me great joy to read more about them in the upcoming books.
Now Lena I just shake my head how stubborn she is but holy hell she did have quite the bite when she was ready to fight. This sarcastic snippy side is part of the reason I like her and think she is good for Mason. However, once she starts to see clearly she ends up being the rock when Mason digs his head in the sand.
The book was great and I am getting flushed just thinking about their bathroom scene after their run.
This book had loss, angst, sarcasm, hoe, passion, steam and lots of love. Great read4.5 flushed thumbs up!
