She didn\u2019t know if he was alive or dead so she tried to move on by leaving and never coming back. Nate loved Savon and never planned to hurt her but his father jumped in his way. The only way Nate could be with Savon was to follow her in her dreams. Savon brother convinces her to come back home and now Nate has a chance of winning her back.<\/p>\n<p>The chemistry between Nate and Savon was explosive. The mix of drama, suspense, secrets, betrayals, and twists in this new series was incredible. \u00a0I loved the way some of the characters from Others of Edenton make appearances in this book. Seeing Preston, Trem and Robert was the best oh how I love Preston. The way Brandy entwined these characters was awesome but at the same time if you have not read the Others of Edenton series you still knew who they are, what they do, and how they are an important part of this book. I cannot wait for more of this series.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few of my favorite lines:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust need your body against mine. Give me this and I\u2019ll be content to wait forever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve spent years in there with her. I know her mind better than I probably know my own. Which is why nothing is going to stop me.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5148 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsharbaugh.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/sw-4.jpg?resize=474%2C474\" alt=\"SW 4\" width=\"474\" height=\"474\" \/><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5149 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsharbaugh.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/sw-5.jpg?resize=425%2C425\" alt=\"SW 5\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5150 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/mrsharbaugh.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/05\/sw-6.jpg?resize=402%2C402\" alt=\"SW 6\" width=\"402\" height=\"402\" \/><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<div><b>\u2014 ABOUT THE AUTHOR \u2014 <\/b><\/div>\n<div>Brandy L Rivers is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author.
