Author: Jaimie Roberts
Release Date: April 3, 2015
Synopsis
How could anyone move on from a betrayal so devastating, it cut down to the bone and rooted itself deep within? You could never forgive such heartache…
Or could you?
From the moment Tyler was six, she fell in love with that cocky eight-year-old boy with the black spiky hair, captivating blues eyes, and scruffy uniform. From the moment he punched a boy for hurting her, Tyler knew there was no going back. They were always meant to be together...
Always.
Then everything changed. The stage was set like a tragic Shakespearean play, and Tyler’s and Dean’s world—as they knew it—had ended.
Or had it?
Tyler
My name was Jessica now. I faked my own death, changed my identity, and moved thousands of miles across the ocean just to escape the one man I would never get out of my heart. I had a four-year-old son I adored more than anything in the world. On one fateful, horrific night, the life I knew disappeared in the blink of an eye. I left people behind. People I cared about. People I would never forget. People I loved.
But had I truly moved on?
No one said leaving behind the one man you had loved since you were six would be easy. I lived life day-to-day. I even met a man and tried to settle down. Evan was a man any woman would desire. So why could I not love him the way he obviously loved me? Why couldn’t I move past the dark-haired, blue-eyed boy who consumed my every thought? I may have left him, but he had never truly left me.
I could never love another man. Dean made sure of that the day he breezed into my life. I was only half a woman now. I had been broken and bruised by the one man I thought I could always love and trust. How could I let go of something like that? I suppose I just had to. I was just getting by with each day that passed. I was coping. I was managing, and that was keeping me from falling apart.
But then disaster struck again. And it was on that day…
Everything changed.
Dean
You can’t hide forever, Tyler. I will always be hunting you, always be searching, and will never give up. If there was ever one certainty in your life, it was that. You slipped through my fingers, not once but twice. You took my heart with you when you left me that day. No amount of alcohol, women, or punching bags would block you from my mind. You couldn’t be dead. I wouldn’t allow you to be dead. You’re out there somewhere. I must congratulate you that you had evaded me for this long. You always were a smart girl. How could I not have fallen in love with you? You did escape me this time, but I will find you, Tyler. I promise you that. And when that day comes… I will finally make you MINE.

Review By Juls
I just finished and I would say that Redemption is the perfect name
for this book! In my eyes, Dean really redeemed himself! In my previous
review, I mentioned that I liked Dean when they were growing up,
however, I didn't care for his character too much in Deviant as an
adult. Now...Dean is the Dean that I like! I felt that I was able to
truly see the real Dean in this story and was able to connect to him so
much more! I loved his personality and the way he took control and
stepped up when it came to Tyler and Jeremy.
Tyler has been hiding from Dean for 4 years, but her heart has never changed. She was always and will always be in love with Dean. She has tried to move on but has never really been able to give her heart completely away. When Dean comes back into her life, she try's to push him away and tells him that she's over him, but Dean can tell by the way her body reacts to him when talking to her, that she's holding back.
"You're still looking at me like I'm the only man who ever existed. Your body still reacts every time you see me, and your breathing still gets heavy when you stare at me with those beautiful green eyes. You always will be mine, Tyler. From the moment we met when you were six, you were mine. Do you remember that, Tyler? Do you remember that connection so strong, despite the fact the were so young"?
I did enjoy this story and enjoyed seeing Dean and Tyler's relationship grow. I also liked Jimmy and Tara as well! I loved the way Dean and Jimmy always joked with each other and went back and forth with the name calling! There were also parts of the story that were very suspenseful and brought tears to my eyes. It had a great ending and I liked how things turned out for everyone!
