Companion to "Unbreakable" -- Landon's story
**This book is a Contemporary Romance and contains mature subject matter.It is not intended for those under 17 years of age.**
I’ve found it’s easier to share my body but not my soul. I need no one, yet I crave her.
Self-assured and independent, she doesn’t need me—but she wants me, and undeniably I want her too. At war with myself as I battle the secrets of my past, I don’t know if I can allow her to see the darkest parts of me, the parts I’ve left untouched—undone.
As she chips away at the walls I’ve built for years, I fear those secrets will hold me hostage from love—forever.

My Review:
Landon Landon Landon. I fell in love with him at the end of
Unbreakable. I thought I knew him but I was wrong. He is complicated. Not just
your average asshole for asshole sake. He has demons that he works very hard to
keep at bay. Demons that torment him in his dreams and interfere with his
relationships… or his non-relationships as it were. He knows himself and he
knows his limits and he never ever crosses them. Then he meets Reagan. Reagan
is not his run of the mill hook up. No she wants more… she demands more. If it’s
friendship or one-night stand then she chooses friendship much to Landon’s
chagrin. So for the first time since
Jessica walked out of his life he actually gets to know a woman. He falls in
like with her almost instantly and she slowly lets him know all of her secrets.
Can he do the same for her? Can he open up those old wounds and bleed for her
to see? He has gotten so good and keeping it all tied down tight protecting
himself and protecting everyone else around him that letting it loose could be
dangerous to them all.
Wow… this book pummeled me. Then it picked me up off the mat
and sucker punched me again… and again… and again. Just when you think you have
gathered your wits and regained your breath, another kick in the gut. ***I “may”
have been furiously messaging the author in the middle of the night***. Landon
is an alpha male and one sexy beast of a man. He is protective and demanding
and a little bit kinky and we like it. We like it A LOT. Poor Reagan never
really stood a chance with the whole “we can just be friends” nonsense. I am
surprised she was able to hold out as long as she did. I wanted to jump into my
kindle and slap her silly. Then I want to jump in and fist-bump her. Then I
want to jump in and hold her tight. This story was oh so agonizing and oh so
sweet at the same time. It will break you. It will thrill you. It will heal
you. Just be prepared to ignore everyone and everything until Landon’s had his
wicked way with you.
*Sigh* now we patiently, or NOT so patiently wait for Lindsay
and Matt’s story ;)
Favorite Quotes:
“You know we all have secrets, right?” She turns to face me.
“we all have scars; some scars can be seen and others cannot. Every scar has a
story and every story needs to be told. When you’re ready, I’ll be here to
listen to your story”
“Oh, and the second question. Why the fuck is there a
broken vibrator in the trash can?” I turn my head to look at her, but she has
already started walking away. “Never mind, there are some questions I would
rather not know the answer to,”
Excerpt:
“What
are you doing up?” I reach out and tuck a strand of her long hair behind her
ear.
“I
thought you left,” she whispers. I don’t know how to respond to her, because
part of me
did
want to leave—to flee where I don’t have to deal with these unknown feelings.
Feelings that
leave
me scared to death. So instead of saying anything, I pull her into a hug. I
love that she’s so
tall.
Her head fits right into the crook of my neck.
“You
need to sleep,” I say quietly. “You have to be at work in a few hours. Go rest;
I’ll be
here
when you wake up—I promise.”
She
pulls away and looks at me skeptically, but nods her head and shuffles down the
hallway
toward
her bedroom. Stopping just outside her door, she looks back over her shoulder
at me, then
turns
around slowly, walking back to me. Without a word, she weaves her fingers
through mine
and
walks us back to her bedroom. I don’t hesitate. In fact, I long for her touch
and grip her hand
tighter.
“Just
lie with me,” she whispers, pressing her finger to my lips so I can’t argue or
refuse.
Pulling
me toward the large bed, she pulls the covers back and slides in, moving to the
center. I
hesitate
as I watch her, wondering if it will ever be possible to “just lie with” her
and not touch
her.
Her long body stretches from the pillows to the end of the bed, and her fair
skin is begging
me
to touch it.
Sliding
in next to her, she pulls me to her. Wrapping her arm across my waist, she
rests her
head
on my shoulder. She settles in as if she’s done it a thousand times—and it
feels natural,
right.
“Thank
you, Landon,” she mumbles sleepily.
“For
what?” I ask, confused.
“Trying.
Thank you for trying.”
