Undeniably Asher (the Colloway Brothers) (volume 2) [Paperback]

Memories. When does our past stop picking at our scars and start letting them heal? Scars. Can we see beyond our wounds to the possibilities the future holds? Possibilities. How do we let ourselves become vulnerable enough to trust the love thats right in front of us? Fate. Shes a fickle, wily bitch that slaps us in the face every opportunity she gets. Sometimes its a taunt, but sometimes its a goddamn wake-up call to pay attention. Take whats rightfully yours without shame or apology. So when destiny put me straight in Alyse Kingsleys path once again, I knew this was one slap I wasnt ignoring. Id let her get away once. I wouldnt again. She was mine and I was takin her, kicking and screaming if need be. Alyse ~ Deceit and betrayal. Every single person who was supposed to love me committed one of these. My mother. My father. My sister. My lover. Incapable of letting people see the real me, I hold them at arms length. But Asher Colloway is relentless and it doesnt take long before I cave to his pursuits. The big question is: can I let him in where it counts most? Before ghosts from my past come back to haunt me in ways I cant possibly fathom? Before its too late? Asher ~ Trust. Forgiveness. Impossible concepts, having been fucked over by a woman Id loved before. But those arent my only personality flaws. Im possessive. Im jealous. Im dominant. I have a secret kink. I want Alyse. All of her. She shows people the shiny, untainted surface. I want the murky, damaged depth. The shadows. I want in all the way. Just when I think Ive made it, fate cruelly bitch-slaps me again. And this time I dont see it coming. The question now is: what am I willing to do to keep the woman I love by my side? And can Alyse accept me the way I am, faults and all?
