Between Us

Between Us

I wanted her the first moment I saw her. I was only eight, but my heart's been set on her ever since.I don't know what to call my fixation on her, I don't know if it's just lust. I don't know if it's pure infatuation, or even love. But whatever it is, it's strong.It's unconditional...it's unrefined...but it's unrequited...It's unlawful.And still, no one could convince me that she isn't the one.She is the one. She's the only one.I wanted Aubree. I had to have her, but I had to wait.There's always been a wedge between us. A thick line that's never meant to be crossed. But sometime after my eighteenth birthday I took the first step over it.Nothing between us now-except for the guilt over seducing my best friend's mom.*This story contains adult situations, language, and themes and is intended for more mature audiences*

okay i finished it. well, let's just say the writing is okay and i definitely enjoyed the drama. a friend of mine recommended me this book and for once i was interested since i already read so many age gap themed romances, but somehow... i just can't get over the fact that hero's so young. lol but overall it's pretty good. will i read more from this author? absolutely. but i think i'll be shying away a little bit from this theme, thank you so much.

I totally enjoyed this book! It’s my first read by the author and I’m hoping to read more from her. As always, I love forbidden romances and this was really good. Trenton was my favorite, despite just being 18 he was really mature and very independent. He had a crush on Aubree for a really long time and I loved how much he cared for her, even if they couldn’t be together for different reasons. He never gave up on his feelings and he always let Aubree know how he felt about her. I liked Aubree too, she took different decision that I’d like to but I understood why she went through at some times. She had to become a mother and a wife at just 15 so a lot of her choices were taken from her, so she didn’t know what to do and stand up for herself when something happened just for fear of losing her son. Diesel was very spoiled and I hated how he treated her most of the time. She just needed to feel loved and Trenton was the one to give her that. Her “husband” was always gone and at the end their marriage was just a business transaction, so I loved how she and Trenton started their relationship, even if they had to overcome the problems that were always there. Their steamy scenes were the best, Trenton always took care of her and he always thought of her pleasure and what she needed. They became addicted to each other in a good way so I loved how they got their HEA and how Aubree and Trenton got everything they wanted at the end.

Really good age gap Haven’t read many older woman younger man but this really blew me away and I’ll have to change that. It was hot and emotional and ended in a pretty satisfying way
