Title: Sacrifice
Author: Adriana Locke
 Release Date: July 13, 2015



Blurb

My life changed forever the night my husband died.

I was left with a shattered heart, a heap of bills, and our daughter, EVERLEIGH. I don’t want to rely on anyone, least of all CREW GENTRY. He’s my first love and the man who almost destroyed me, the man who has let me down every time I’ve needed him.

But when tragedy strikes a second time, Crew just might be my only hope.


My life changed forever the night my brother died.

I was left with a guilty conscience, a pile of mistakes, and little else. I take care of JULIA GENTRY, my brother’s widow and the love of my life, and their daughter. I know she doesn’t want my help, but she gets it anyway. I owe her that. When another disaster hits, I’m given the opportunity to make things right. I’m taking it. I'm willing to sacrifice it all.

Excerpt


“She’s been missing him a lot lately.”

Julia’s voice is barely a whisper and my chest constricts. Our conversations don’t normally make it to discussing Gage unless we’re already arguing. The fact that she just brought it up shocks me and I’m not comfortable with it. I don’t know how to take it. I feel my jaw pulse with frustration and scramble to change the subject again. “Why is it so chilly in here?”

Her smile disappears and she tugs her sweatshirt nervously. “I didn’t know it was.”

“How can you possibly not know?” I start to the thermostat across the room when she clears her throat.

“The heater isn’t working right. I asked Lane to come by and look at it earlier this week.”

“And he hasn’t been here yet?” I shoot her a look and she shakes her head. “He’ll be here tonight.” I dig my cell outta my pocket.

“Crew, don’t. Please. The last time you called my landlord he was a complete jerk to me for a couple of months. I just got on good terms with him again.”

I scroll through my contacts list, looking for his name.

“Crew ...” I know her doe-eyes are pleading with me. I also know if I look up at her, I’ll be somewhat inclined to give in. So I don’t.

Review By Lys
"This woman is the bane of my existence and the reason I live, all wrapped in one beautiful package. Not having her is the reason I've wanted to die, yet it was a choice I made because I loved her so damn much." ~Crew

Crew Gentry had lost everything and yet he had so much to give. Bound by family and love, he sacrificed it all for a second chance. Julia was facing one tragedy after another, and all she wanted to do was take care of her little girl. When all hope was lost, Crew was the only one that could save them.

I was blown away by this book. It was such an emotional read. I thought it was going to be another hot alpha, MMA fighter book, but it wasn't. It was sooo much more! What I loved about it most was the depth to which I was able to connect to the characters. Due to Adriana Locke's flawless, beautiful writing...I found myself right along side them, desperate for a second chance at life and love. My heart broke repeatedly for Crew and Julia over all that they had to endure. I felt their loss, their pain, and their hope. This story moved me, and I enjoyed every single moment. I would highly recommend this book. It is definitely a MUST read!

"When things seem unbeatable, you have to keep pressing forward. Because no matter how bad they look, you can always win. You always have the power. You just have to realize it." ~Crew
