Louisa saved her sisters and herself, escaping a cult. She has taken time to heal and has now opened her own business, her sisters are doing well and life is going well. She is, however, looking for her own happily ever after. She meets Ciaran, who is not only a hot hockey player, but also a lover of her favourite book genre, romance. Sparks fly on the first meeting, and they are drawn to each other. Both having experiences in their past make them a little gunshy, they have to decide if they are going to give each other a chance or let the past control their future.
At its heart, this book is about learning to love and trust. But there is some mega instalove in it. They hit it off upon first meeting, and are in love quickly after. Ciaran is the perfect person for Louisa, loving, patient and kind. Even more, Louisa is working hard to overcome the pain of the cult she was in, and Ciaran just loves her so much.
I loved Louisa and her sisters. They have all experienced the cult they were in in different ways. Louisa was the protector and loves her siblings so much and did everything she could to protect them.
This was a great story, with great character development. Though the two struggled at times, they were able to overcome the obstacles standing in their way and get their happily ever after.
