Keep Me was a read that snuck in with interest, built to obsessive page turning and then sucker-punched me in the gut with a wave of feels so that I'm thinking of it now the pages are closed. The plot was strong but it was the two characters of Sylvie and Killian that reeled me in tight.
Sylvie was the entitled, brattish (I thought) Manhatten woman with famous parents and Killian was a brooding, mooding Scottish laird with a manor. Both were misunderstood and I encourage you to read this, as peeling back the layers of their characters and past was the best element of this book.
The story had chemistry that smacked you in the face and it had some sprinkings of spice but when it sprinkled, it was intense. The sex seemed inevitable, the connection was uncertain.
I don't want to explain too much about this story but it's my first from this author and I am feeling a sense of longing for these characters again. I don't know what is in store with this series but I will be rolling up for book two.
Thank you to Sourcebooks for the review copy.
