Read:: Split by JB Salsbury

JB has done it again. She's made me laugh, cry, be worried, and happy all in the same book. This story carries every emotion in it and you feel it. JB knows who to play those heart strings and she plays them well.

We meet Shyann trying to make it out on her own, get a dream job, only her conscience gets the best of her and she loses her job. She must put her tail between her legs and return home. Something she has been avoiding since her momma died and she ran off. She comes to town with the intention to only being a few weeks, get her feet on the ground, then head back out to the big world.

Lucas is working for Shyann's dad, Nash. He has a hidden talent, an artist along with helping with the construction side of Nash's business. Lucas sticks to himself. He prefers quiet and on his own than a crowd.

He and Shyann meet and boy is the ride worth every word I read. JB takes us through Lucas's past, introduces us to Gage, and the rollercoaster seems to only twist and turn continuously. Gage protects Lucas, that is his job, he takes what Lucas cannot handle, even is that means getting rid of Shyann. At one point I seriously did think that Gage was going to kill someone. The temper was there for a moment.


Shyann is the perfect woman for Lucas and Gage. She is patient, understanding, and tries to help any way she can. I can honestly say she is more understanding than most would be with the situation.
After reading the MMA boys, this was completely something new but still the same. She rips your heart out and mends it all in one sitting. I loved reading about a strong woman and a not so sure man.
