Zach<\/p>\n

She was innocent.
\nPassionate.
\nFierce.
\nAfter Luna Stone and I went from friends to lovers, my only purpose was showing her how worthy I was. But how could I convince her when I didn\u2019t believe it myself?
\nI craved her touch and her smiles but most of all, her heart.
\nI vowed to protect her and show her father that I could be the man for his daughter.
\nI pushed.
\nShe pulled.
\nAnd when all was said and done, I\u2019d have to go through an even higher power to prove that I deserved her\u2026
\nMyself.
\n~
\nLuna<\/p>\n

He was quiet.
\nWithdrawn.
\nIntense.
\nZach Porter and I had been friends since we were kids, but it had never amounted to anything more than that. Until now.
\nBut as close as we were getting, he was still closed off.
\nHe protected his heart and put up walls, even though he had no reason to.
\nHe shoved.
\nI grabbed hold and never let go.
\nIf I didn\u2019t fight for what was ours, he\u2019d succumb to his demons and believe their vicious words telling him that he\u2019s not good enough. To give up.
\nOn us.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reader beware, once you start this incredible story, you will not put it down until the end. This is the next generation after King\u2019s Harlots. You won\u2019t need to read King\u2019s Harlots before The Next Generation but I highly recommend it. King\u2019s Harlots is an intensely amazing series and I believe The Next Generation will be just as powerful.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

First things first… Zach F\u2019n Porter! *ahhhhh* Even though Coby and Brogan adopted Zach, he reminds me so much of Coby. Zach had a dark childhood and has some really significant demons that he fights daily. It really warms my heart to see how his parents continue to help him through these issues to overcome them. But like most of us, Zach is his own worst enemy. Now to get to Luna. She may just be the most innocent of the bunch. She is sweet but can bring on the sass with the best of them. She has such a kind heart and wants to help anyone she can. Zach and Luna have always been great friends growing up, but now that they are adults, things start to change. They have a passionate connection where the heat continues to build and many times is close to combustion. There is a delicate push and pull between the two as they try to figure out their feelings for each other. There are many things that can go wrong and a lot of outside forces trying to keep them from each other. However, the one thing that can make or break this is Zach. He has to get past himself or this can go all wrong.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a powerful story full of love and compassion with a few personal demons thrown in the mix. Bravo, JM! Can\u2019t wait for more!<\/span><\/p>\n
