My rating: 4 of 5 stars
4,5 Stars
Taken Home is book three in the series Lone Star Burn.
I didn't read the first two books but they look really worth reading especillay the story of Charles
So I'll give them a try very soon :)
Back to our Chelle ;)
In her attempt to finally get laid and get rid of her virginity, twenty five year old Chelle, borrowed a candom from her best friend David and headed toward Mason at the wedding ceremony where they were all invited to celebrate the union of their friends Sarah and Tony.
Mason, the senator, was in real trouble after sleeping with Trish, another senator's daughter. He had to convince Chelle to be his fake fiancée and save him from Trish's claws and from her father Bill who did never miss the opportunity to oppose any of Mason's bills.
Well
they didn't have the same ideas in mind and though Mason was a womanizer who does not even bother to know the name of the chick he's sleeping with, Chelle, for him was the forbidden fruit and he had to stay away from her even when she agreed to be his fiancée and managed to save him from Trish.
HE HAD TO STAY AWAY FROM HER or HIS BEST FRIEND CHARLES WOULD KILL HIM.
Well....
Not after she grabbed him from his tie and kissed him... and not after he finally tasted her.
"He didn't just want her. He needed her, as desperately as a person gasps a breath after being denied air."
I loved how this book valued family and togetherness and I loved how people stood beside each other no matter what happened. there is so much love and warmth in this book and you can't but love all the characters.
Chelle was a unique heroine. though she was a country girl she wasn't intimidated by the glamour of the city or the embarrassing interventions of the press. She knew how to defend herself and how to show her love.
Mason was a successful senator, handsome, charismatic and an A+ womanizer. From the outside he was every girl's dream but from the inside he was all fucked up and lonely with a haunting past.
They had many issues to fight but I loved their journey towards happiness.
Thank you Ruth Cardello for the amazing book.
Thank you NetGalley for the provided copy.
