Tara’s business isn’t the type of business most
people have or would think of. She lives
and breathes her job and loves getting back items stolen from good people. Tara has done this for years as she had two
of the most important people stolen from her at a young age. As a teenager she work on her skills that are
prudent to her business today with Jake whom she dated until he left to enlist
in the Marines.
Jake lost his parents when he was seventeen
years old and spent one year of hell in the foster care system. Tara and his older sister were the two
reasons he kept going until he and Tara got caught. To get his life back on track he enlisted in
the Marines and left Tara behind. Now he
is back home after an injury from an IUD but has stayed away as what happened
to him in Afghanistan has left an ever-lasting impression on him.
Jake shows up in Tara life unexpectedly and she
is happy to see him until she finds out the only way out of the mess she is in
is by helping him who works for one of the people Tara considers a bad guy. To top it all off things have heated back up
for these two. Now Tara is left to decide whether to help Jake and go against
everything she believes or do what she feels is right and possibly lost him
forever.
I was gifted this novel for an honest review
and I hadn’t read any books by Diane Alberts/Jen McLaughlin until I read this one. The story between Jake and Tara is a rocky
one with challenges and life getting in the way like the rest of us has to deal
with. I love how Tara holds on to her
morels and values so deeply that she doesn’t see what she is doing is wrong
even though she is righting a wrong done to an innocence person. She is a strong prideful woman who doesn’t
need a man to help or define her. Jake
is what I expected of an injured Marine who has been forced home. He’s an alpha male who seems to let his pride
get in the way of what he truly wants, Tara.
He can’t see the good guy he is but only that he will never be good
enough for the one woman he’s ever loved.
I liked that Jen didn’t just have Tara fall at Jake’s feet but rather
make him work for the things he wants. This was a great book and I highly
recommend you get this book and read Jake and Tara’s story. I will definitely
be going back and reading the first book in this series, Temporarily Yours.
