Book Review- Until I Fall by Claudia Burgoa

 

 I gave my heart to a Navy SEAL.
He took it with him to his grave.
Eleven years later, ignoring the yawning void is as automatic as breathing. Working brutal hours, dating a comfortably commitment-phobic guy, hanging with my best friends. Anything until exhaustion—or an extra glass of wine—claims my consciousness.

And then my comfort zone is invaded by Anderson Hawkins' piercing green eyes.
He says he’s a tattoo artist, but his mastery of the short answer, weird schedule, and military ink tell a different story.

His touch ignites a long-dead flame inside me.
But can I touch it without being completely scorched from the inside out?
I'm at the edge of a cliff. I just don't know if he'll catch me until I fall.


Note: This contemporary romance contains a former military hero accustomed to treading dangerous ground, and a wary, overworked doctor who’s a military widow in every way but name, brought together by a few unexpected twists and turns—and maybe the machinations of a cute dog.

 3.5 STARS

Michael and Aspen start out this story with their bitter-sweet story.  There is plenty of emotion out of that part of the story all on it's own.  More emotions come into focus as Aspen's dysfunctional family add to the story.

Then Anderson (Hawk) brings even more emotions as Aspen continues to try to remain numb. 

So overall although the story was well written and I liked both Aspen and Anderson. Even Aspen's two long life friends, Scarlett and Brynn added more to the story. But I still had a hard time getting into and staying in this story.  I have hope for other books by this author but sad to say this one wasn't really for me.

   " I voluntarily read a copy of this book,  and this is my honest opinion about it.
