Some secrets have a way of coming back and haunting us, no matter how much we try to bury them.
Chelsea
Coming back home was supposed to be normal.
Not that my life had ever been normal, but it was getting there.
Then I opened the door and found a man—broken, bloodied, and fighting for his life.
I don’t know why, but I said I would take care of him. I had to. Needed to.
He was a mystery, showing up from out of nowhere. But he might have already stolen my heart.
Mayson Carey
The only thing I have ever wanted in my entire life was to forget who I was. Joining the military helped me do this.
Keep your head down and glide through life was my new motto. No strings, no relationships. Nothing.
Everything was working until a knock at the door had me face-to-face with the reason I was running.
So I ran—I fell into her arms, and she fell into my heart, but I know better than to think it’ll last.
Some secrets have a way of coming back and haunting us, no matter how much we try to bury them.
RELEASE DATE: April 6, 2021

Not my first time reading the author, I am a big fan and I love this series and well all of Natasha’s book. That said this beauty did make it on my TOP 2021 MUST READ list which is very short this year so far. You will need tissues handy with this one!
First of I want to say that this is kind of a 2nd gen H&H because we’ve read about their parents now it’s their turn. This broke me in so many ways and not going to lie, took a while to piece me back together. Emotional, suspenseful, forbidden, sweet, romantic and addicting! That’s the best way I can describe these two along with the story line. What I loved the most is the emotions between H&H but also on their own. Lot’s is happening here but it will feel like it went so slow after you’re done reading. I won’t spoil anything as I am always a no-spoiler reviewer BUT i want to because it’s just so painfully beautiful. p.s. If we can have it recorded here that I would really love to see Natasha’s give us a full on NEW series but a SUSPENSE and even a MYSTERY romance…I really love her suspense romances because they are equal amount of each and even thought it rattles you, it sooths you with the love.
Little about the book: Chelsea and Mayson are meant to be. Mayson is the mysterious man, older, harder and just basically never even spoke more than two words to the heroine. But that did not stop the feelings from forming for her. From the day she met him and on, she has been fascinated with the quiet brooding man, imagining what it would feel like to be held by him. Mayson on the other hand has never seen a more beautiful woman than Chelsea but with his baggage there was no way he would ever taint her beauty. When Mayson falls in the hands on Chelsea there isn’t a more secure place to be. From them watching the sunrise together to Chelsea promising Mayson to show him the beauty of the colors in the sunrise to their first kiss to the end.
Again, have tissue handy and be prepared. There is a death scene if you’re triggered but nothing else but pure good writing.
