LET ME GO (The Invisibles, #5) by Michelle Lynn





BLURB:

My name is Rob Winters, aka, Jackass. Even to my closest friends.

I wasn’t always so arrogant and condescending. It only took one night to change me—one point twenty-seven seconds, to be exact.

When tragedy struck, I promised myself, no matter what, unbreakable chains would lock my heart. If one veers too close or digs too deep, the cruel and mean bastard many hate is unleashed. My plan has succeeded for the past seven years.  I’ve driven away a girlfriend and killed a few friendships along the way. 

Then, just when the chains loosen around my heart, she walks into my life—or worse, the room next door. She strolls into my house with her bouncy brown curls and banging body, slithering herself through the smallest opening and making me crave the one thing I’ve denied myself these past years.

Her smell, her eyes, and her caring nature are everything I’m not worthy of enjoying. How long do I have to struggle with the demons that haunt me every night before the torture ends? Forever, I remind myself, but the links protecting my heart break each time Paige Kensington enters the room.


Let Me Go





EXCERPT:



I place the package in the microwave and press the button. “I’m a little surprised you’re missing your signature apparel this evening,” Rob comments, and when I swivel around, he’s leaned back in his chair, his fingers strumming along the table. This incredible sexual response comes over me, that he was admiring me going about doing a mundane task. The pleasure brings so much warmth through my veins, I wish he was mine and I could saunter over and straddle his lap. I ache to grind against the hardness I created, as his hands would find my ass.

Instead, I swallow the urge. “Oh, well, laundry day.”

He nods, his eyes moving up my legs. “I’m not sure which one I prefer.”

I laugh. “Really? Pajama pants with absurd expressions are your things?”

“Not usually, but on you they are.” My breathing stops before sputtering back up. Our eyes meet and an unbearable inner excitement flows through me. The more I swim in the blues of his eyes, the more he spins me in his web of magnetism. Just as I’m about to ignore my mind’s resistance, I jolt from the beep of the microwave and quickly spin on my heels. Grabbing the bag, I toss it back and forth in my hands because it’s so hot.

Rob laughs behind me and then the chair legs scrape along the floor and his footsteps thump behind me. “Let me help you.” He relieves the burn in my hands, opening the two corners. Steam rushes out of the bag and I grab a bowl to pour it into. We accomplish the menial job together as a team. He’s about to retreat back to the table, when he stops, leaning forward. “I like that I give you that reaction.” He whispers and I lick my lips out of reflex.

“Keep doing that and I won’t stand a chance in keeping my distance from you.”

“What if I don’t want you to?” The words slip out of my mouth before I can filter them.

“Hmm . . .” He places the bowl on the counter and then nears closer, gripping the counter on either side. “Believe me, Paige, you do.” My heart stammers and the edge of the counter digs into my palm.

Then he backs away and goes back to the table, leaving me mute stricken and frozen in place

4 STARS



Paige grew up with a rocker dad, who indulged greatly in the musicians lifestyle.
Alcohol and parties. He also had no idea what the world Commitment meant when it came to the opposite sex.
So of course Paige had developed the idea that a loving trustworthy man does not exist.



Rob is the heart breaker who ran off and joined another band, only to return when the idea of the rocker life, over took him. He began to spiral and it was time to step back and rejoin the Invisibles.



When Paige moves in to the house with Dex, Chrissy and Rob, renting out the vacant room, Rob is intrigued. In true Rob fashion he makes his attraction for her know, even when Chrissy warned him to stay away.



They both allow one another in, sharing things they have not shared with others. The closeness that develops between them is beautiful, but the road along the way was definitely not smooth.
They learn to trust and you know the saying of if you love something...let it go, and so on? Well We'll will see if that is rue for Paige and Rob.
