Never Look Back (Redemption Hills)

From NYT and USA Today bestselling author A.L. Jackson comes an enemies-to-lovers, close-proximity, second-chance romance...

Logan Lawson won me in a bet.

The second I saw him sitting at the illegal card table, I knew I was in trouble.

Years ago, he sealed my fate and condemned me to a life I didn't want to lead.

Yet he's filled with untamed fury and thirsting for vengeance against the husband I hate.

Aster Costa is everything I never should have wanted.

The second she showed with her pompous, prick of a husband, I should have gotten up and walked.

But there's no looking away from the woman who wrecked me.

Worse, I can't stop myself from plotting to get her back.

I want nothing more than to be free of my husband.

I'm afraid Logan Lawson is the only one who can make that happen.

He might hate me for our past, but now it's me on my knees begging for help.

Finding each other in the middle of it wasn't supposed to be part of the bargain.

But once Logan touches me, I'm gone.

A torch is rekindled. A fire is lit.

Aster Costa has always been mine.

And this time, no matter the cost, I won't give her back...

I was hesitant to read this when I first received it in the mail because it was the third book in a series. One of my biggest peeves is reading a book and realizing it's part of a series and I haven't read any of the others. Thankfully, it seems the Redemption Hills books can be read as standalone!

First of all, this alternate cover is stunning! The original is pretty great too, but I am in love with this floral design.

I don't tend to read a lot of MC (motorcycle club) romance but this one also had a mafia element mixed in and I found it to be quite an enjoyable storyline.

There's a forbidden first love that transitions in to an enemies-to-lovers, second chance romance with lots of sexual tension, steamy love scenes, and vengeful suspense.

Pending my ever-growing tbr, I would definitely consider reading the rest of this series.

Special thanks to Valentine PR and the author for this finished copy of the alternate cover in exchange for an honest review.

Never Look Back by A.L. Jackson Beautiful. Heartwarming. Romantic. Jackson writes the most beautiful romance. The hot scenes aren’t just s•x but they’re romance and poetic words full of love and feelings, and it just makes those hot scenes more entrancing. My heart is so full when I read her stories. Logan (her North Star) and Aster (his little star) fell in love, a forbidden love. They suffered so much loss and lived empty lives until they found each other again, but there was so much still trying to keep them apart. So much greed and violence. But through it all they fight to be together, because this time they are stronger, made stronger by the loss they suffered and the lives they lived because of it. Especially Aster, that girl grew into such a strong woman. If you enjoy forbidden love, strong alpha men, beautiful romance and hot passionate scenes, then you will love this book and the whole series of standalone books about the Lawson brothers.

It was okay, but I'm not a fan of the writing style of this author and the backstory took too long to appear in favor of twists. It made me feel like I was reading half a story for at least half of the book.
