REVIEW from Sassy Southern Girl - Rebecca
4 Stars
Winter Bennett will do anything to avoid her ex-boyfriend, even if it means escaping through a bathroom window of a restaurant and landing in the middle of gunfire. Winter runs a centre for less privileged children where many of the kids could end up in gangs without her help.
Wyatt Hunter is the police officer who saves Winter from getting killed and he is immediately smitten with Winter and her feisty attitude.
When Winter finds herself in trouble with one of the local gangs, The Street Kings, over a student will she turn to Wyatt for help? Can Winter get over her insecurities with men to give Wyatt a fait chance?
This was a great book filled with laughs and lots of tense moments to make you wonder what was going to happen next. I found it a great balance of the heavy stuff with some lighter moments.
Winter was a great character as it was obvious how caring she was and strong for helping so many children but at the same time she had a vulnerable side due to her relationship with her ex-boyfriend. To climb out a window to avoid your ex really made me laugh.
Wyatt was a tough cop but had another side that you gradually leanred more about in regards to what happened with his sister, Rose. I loved learning more about everything with their relationship and how it impacted Wyatt's relationship with Winter.
The scene with Winter's sister, Bree, losing it was so intense and I felt bad for Bree's daughter but holy crap I was worried!
The stuff with The Street Kings was intense for sure and you knew they were mad and my heart truly broke for what they did to the centre. When everything went down at the end I knew they were missing one and knew something was coming and I hated being right.
The very end was great and I look forward to more in this series!
