Synopsis
With her ailing father on his deathbed, a whispered secret sends Cadence’s life into a tailspin. Determined to either confirm or debunk her father’s claim, she sets out on a mission to grow close to the only man with evidence to set things straight. To do that, Cadence earns a position in an elite security firm owned by her father’s old army buddy, Noah “Mac” Mackinley.
Mac is the only man who could hold the evidence to support her father’s claims…
But first, she must prove herself worthy of Mac’s trust and get close enough to find the truth. Her first mission is to watch over an eight-year old girl, Harley Clark.
Harley is not an ordinary girl. She’s the daughter of a rock star…
Despite her fragile appearance, Harley has tenacity and brilliance like nothing Cade has ever seen. To everyone’s surprise—including her own—Cade forms an unlikely friendship with the beautiful wallflower.
Her first assignment just became more interesting…
When Harley’s rock star father, Jax Clark, enters the scene, Cade can’t deny the instant attraction for the self-proclaimed bad boy. Tattoos, piercing eyes, and a raspy voice that sends thousands of fans into a screaming frenzy, he’s more than just a heartthrob. Worse, Jax starts to pay her more attention than she expects.
She’s faced with a choice—get lured in by the celebrity world and lose any chance of finding out the truth, or stick to the plan and avoid Jax at all costs to earn Mac’s trust.

My Thoughts
Wow, this was a head spinner of a story don't know how my mind wrapped around it. I was amazed with the amount of details on this story and even more amazed over the emotions in the story. This is my first time reading anything by this author and I love her writing. I was so hooked into the story so much that it only took me 1 day to read it and I don't even think it was a whole day. The amazing words between the covers just had me spell bound and what I really needed to get out of my book funk. The story line was kinda hard to figure out at first, but then all of a sudden I'm in like chapter 4 and like holy cow this is really happening. The way the author had the characters come off, they weren't strong and yet they weren't weak, they both came off as people. The one that I thought was the strongest of all was Harley for a little girl she didn't act as one, she completely won my heart over with the first meeting. Strong and caring down to the bone she about breaks my heart close to the end. In fact half way into the story more so closer to the ending I thought my world was going to shatter. Thinking this was going to be all about Jax and Cade I was happy to know that Harley was also a main character. The 3 different POVs was amazing and really written great. I felt like I was actually reading where I was a fly on the dang wall. All the characters seem to really embrace themselves and come alive when they are together. I really loved the hott sexual tension with Jax and Cade, I of course didn't think they would actually do anything about it.The many twist the author takes you on is one that you wont soon forget, leaving the pages is magic and one that makes you crave and want more and more. By the time I reached the end I was so shocked I couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing, the only thing I was positive about was I didn't want it to end. The short chapters made it easy to read along with and the flow went great with the pace of the story not to fast but no slow either :) MUST READ I recommend this for anyone and everyone!!! Romance like you have never seen before it's beautiful right down to the very last word.
