GAAAH! This book! While Tressa can be beyond infuriating, I can understand from her perspective why she is the way she is. She is guarded because she doesn’t want the hurt but also because of who she is. She loves her life private. Then you have Killian. The lover of lime light and to make the media chase him. But when their gazes connect, all bets are are off. For both of them. I love how Killian works his way into Tressa’s life regardless of how much she fights it. How Tressa’s walls break down because she has a real connection with Killian and she is scared that the other shoe will drop. It is heart wrenchingly beautiful seeing their story come to fruition.
Passion sizzles between these two and Scott does it with flare and grace. Between the character growth to the story concept,her words flow seamlessly and are absolutely stunning. Set in Stone is a brilliant addition to the Stone family and I am so looking forward to the final book.

I knew I'd LOVE Tressa's story but I didn't realize just how much until I came to the end and continued to try to turn pages that weren't there! Tressa was absolute PERFECTION and every bit the strong-willed, fiesty woman who would guard her heart against any man who didn't deserve her. Killian was the attention seeking star quarterback that definitely caught Tressa's attention and was bound to chase his way into her heart. As the saying goes opposites attract, that was hands down Tressa and Killian..... together they were explosive, challenging, unique and every bit seducing. Their story was one that captivated me, mesmerized me and had me inhaling every last word quicker than the next needing to know how it would end. Tressa and Killian's story is one that needs to be read!

Tressa Stone knows how important a public persona is. Killian Brenton knows he looks good and he has an ego that needs some air let out of it. Our author is good at making you wonder about these two people. They can't be more polar opposite than the Arctic Circle and the Antarctic Circle. And that’s when the fun begins.

If you’ve not read the rest of the Heart of Stone Series that is a shame but not a total loss. Once you start this book you’ll start to wonder what you’ve missed and then find you want to check out the other eight books in the series. At the very least, check out Tressa’s parent’s story in Crash Into Me. Maybe you’ve never read this author’s work before, what a great way to be introduced.

I don’t know who she used as a reference point when creating Killian but I’d like to meet him. I just want to give him a little poke with a pin to see how much he would deflate – get rid of some of that hot air. At times I felt he overshadowed Tressa because of his big personality. But the heat between these two more than made up for that. I also loved how sneaky our author made him – so that gave him a few brownie points to make up for the oversized ego. But it was more than worth it for the chuckles he will supply and the ending that will leave you with a smile on your face.

I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
