Life has a funny way of pushing us beyond what is mentally possible.
Paige
I was born to parents who never cared if I had food or clothes. I was nothing. A waste of space and time to them.
At sixteen, they relocated…and didn’t bother to tell me.
I lived in my busted up and broken-down car behind a gym for months when two men found me.
One of them I believed was my savior, the love of my life. Turns out things aren’t always what they seem. He was the devil in disguise.
A few thousand bad decisions later, I find myself in the very same parking lot where I found the devil and the man who supported me through it all.
I’m Paige Turner. I’m a mess of a woman with nothing but hard times in my past and a future that’s completely uncertain.
Sergio
I had a life once. I had a wife and a baby on the way. My life was everything I never knew I wanted.
I was halfway around the world, defending my country, serving the United States proudly, when I lost absolutely everything that mattered.
I couldn’t save them. I couldn’t even fight for them.
I went through the stages of grief and I’ve come out on the other side a different man.
Now, I fight.
Literally.
There is something therapeutic about beating someone or even yourself. I can control the pain, unlike my life.
I’m Sergio Nichols. When my family was taken, I’ve somehow learned to function in a new dysfunctional family of their own making.
Two broken people with one chance at redemption.
Review: (ARC Received from S.M. Donaldson)
I thought Lox was my favorite and he still kinda might be but Sergio is definitely right there with him. This man has been through so much yet still has a caring heart. He looks out for those he cares about and tries to help. He was brought into Marco's being the competition and eventually becomes family.
I wanted to hug Paige. This girl has had everything stripped from her, not slowly either, its been one thing after another. She got into some deep trouble but managed with the help of Marco and his guys to find her way out. She is hanging on a thread when she first meets Sergio, but who knew that that meeting wouldn't be their last. Who knew that they would help dig each other out of their fox holes.
I loved this story and the heart that was put into it. I loved that these two managed to find love even when it looked to be impossible.
S.M. Donaldson is a born and raised Southern girl. She grew up in a small rural town on Florida’s Gulf Coast, the kind of place where everyone knows your business before you do, especially when your Daddy is a cop and your Mom works for the school system. She married one of her best friends at the age of 20 and has one son. She is a proud military wife, has always had a soft spot for a good story, and is known to have a potty mouth. At the age of 31, she decided there was no time like the present to attempt her first book. Sam’s Choice was born and she hasn’t stopped since. If you are looking for a good, steamy, Southern set romance with true Southern dialect, she’s your girl.
