EXCERPT:

When Olivia and Ashley leave the kitchen and Charlie moves to the fridge to get the drinks, I take a second to adjust myself. A few deep breaths and I’m willing myself to calm down. Damn, that woman drives me all sorts of crazy. I start to relive the feel of her against me when the loud clank of beer bottles getting slammed down on the counter grabs my attention.

            “You want to explain what the hell that was all about?” Charlie demands, and when I look at his face, I see unbridled fury there. What the hell?

            “What exactly do I need to explain?” I question, knowing full well he’s referring to him and Olivia catching Ashley and I in a slightly compromising position.

“Don’t play dumb with me, Sam. My family’s been through enough crap in the last few weeks without having you come in and causing any more problems.”

“Your family?” I question, because hell, I’m not going to stand here and let him act all high and mighty with me. As much as sometimes I do feel out of place in the Tierney’s, they are the only family I have and I love every one of them, and that includes Gracie now too. Then I have the sudden thought that maybe Charlie has a thing for Ashley. It makes sense. She’s fantastic with Ruby and loyal to Gracie. She’s been around Charlie all her life. Maybe he wants her and is jealous I was kissing her instead of him.

“Yes, my family,” he snaps back. “You need to leave Ashley alone, Sam. She’s not a toy for you to play with.”






What a wonderful book!!! You must read Rhythm of My Heart first though.  I was floored at the heartbreaking moments that I found myself crying and sobbing at. I think Velvet has done an outstanding job writing this. You feel so emotionally attached to the characters and you can’t help but feel their pain, sadness and happiness as though it was actually real.
I cannot begin to describe how this book made me feel. There are some very intense moments and even at the beginning you find yourself not being able to read through the amount of tears that were flowing. I kid you not.
If you have read the first book then you know this book takes place straight where Rhythm of My Heart ended. Gracie is in hospital after her car accident. Cole is beside himself with worry as is everyone else. The fact that he cannot live without her shows how much he loves his Gracie.
What Cole and Gracie have to go through is just incredible. I absolutely love them as a couple. So devoted to each other. Then there are their family and friends that are so caring and loving….a real sense of FAMILY.
I really don’t want to say anymore with a fear of spoiling anything for those yet to read it. If you haven’t read this series yet make sure you add them to your TBR list or you are missing out on incredible stories. I have no doubt Velvet Reed will do great things in the future.
I cannot wait for more from Velvet and I am looking forward to reading more in this series.



 
SYNOPSIS:

** This book is recommended for people over 18 years due to strong language and sexual content.**

Grace Rivers is your everyday twenty-five year old. She could have the world at her feet, but instead chooses to help run the family business. After experiencing great loss early in her life, Grace values what's most important: her family and friends. But she aches to find that certain someone—that one great, passionate love who values family as much as she does.

Cole Tierney loves his life. He has a wonderful family, a loyal best friend and a successful career as an ER doctor. The only downside is he wants someone to share it with. After being used and left heartbroken, he wants to find someone who will love him for him and not his or his family's status. 

"Every beat my heart makes is for you. Every time it beats faster it's because of you—because you're near me, because of your smile—because you take my breath away." 

Their two hearts collide by chance and an undeniable connection is quickly made.

But when others are plotting against their happiness, will their love flatline, or will the rhythm of their hearts continue to beat as one?
