What the--? Seriously?
He asks--begs--her to stay, and against her better judgement she does, and then just because he flips out in his sleep, he decides to be a proper arse to her and tell her he doesn't want her?!?! What the hell?
That aside, I really liked the first 80% or so of this. How Colton did his best to seduce her when she turns him down right at the beginning, by fair or foul. And how Rylee becomes brave enough to try love again after the tragedy in her past.
That last bit, mentioned above, really annoyed me, though. He keep warning her to stay away and she tries her best, but he keep appearing again and touching her, kissing her and she's on the brink, if she doesn't already, of loving him. But at the same time he keeps begging her to give him a chance and then when she does, he totally flips out on her. Argh! I want to punch him right now!
Hopefully, he'll redeem himself in Fueled, book 2 of the trilogy.
