Description
All the
best fairytale princesses have the most horrific pasts. Mine just happens to be
more horrific than most.
Fantasizing
over Vaughn Asher was a dream. Meeting Vaughn Asher was a fairytale. Loving
Vaughn Asher was my downfall.
The past
is always there. Waiting. Waiting to expose you. Waiting to ruin you. Waiting
to take you back. Sometimes
not even a prince can save you.
Review
My heart is pounding. A have this huge
lump in my throat. It's hard to swallow. My vision is blurry from crying so
hard. What a motherfuckin ride!! My emotions have fucking whiplash. I don't
think there is anything to say or how anyone cannot see how much of a
motherfucking genius JA Huss is. Fucking brilliant.
The anticipation, the fear, the mystery and the fucking suspense will have and keep you trapped. Trapped in the world that is Vaughn and Grace. The minute this hit my kindle at midnight, I fucking dove right in. The ending of Book four had me pulling at my fucking hair and I almost wanted to cry because I had to wait two weeks to find out what happened. Well...it was so worth the wait. So fucking worth the wait.
Bravo Ms. Huss! Bravo!!! I was already a fan from book one but now I'm a motherfuckin fan forever!! I love everything about this serial. The story line is absolute perfection. The story flows so effortlessly. The characters are so amazingly written and developed as the story unfolds.
Grace is strong, and fierce and determined to not become a victim. Her courage and bravery had me crying and rooting for her. Vaughn is in love and will not let anyone or anything get in his way when it comes to Grace. He loves her deeply and my heart melts more and more for him. I love him hard!!

This
is a definite must read and I can't wait to read the next installment, which
will be the last. It's bittersweet. I'm not sure I'm ready to end this journey
with Vaughn and Grace. But I know one thing for damn sure...my journey with JA
Huss does not end with this serial.
Excerpt
The
shouting starts as I exit, but I just flip my sunglasses down and push right
through them. I’ve been doing this for twenty-seven years. Some encounters have
been more stressful than others, but I’m not the kind of movie star who punches
out photographers. They are making a living. Yeah, they are parasites who make
a living off me, but fuck it. I really have no beef with them. In fact,
most of them are nice when they’re not stalking you.
But then
I see that bitch from Buzz Hollywood. She steps right in front of me and
sticks that microphone in my face. “What will Jasinda think when she finds out
you’re cheating on her?”
I
actually stop to laugh. Ray grabs my forearm and tugs, trying to get me moving again.
But I shrug him off. “I hope,” I tell the reporter as I look her in the eye,
“she feels ashamed of herself. Jasinda”—I am facing the camera now, so I
address her directly—“you’re a lying bitch. If you’re even pregnant, I’m up for
a DNA test any time you are. I have a wife now and her name is Grace
Kinsella-Asher.” And then I turn back to look at all of them as they hover
close behind me. “And now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to get her a coffee
and a muffin. Blueberry,” I add. “Grace likes blueberry. And she likes iced
tall sugar-free caramel, nonfat, light ice, Starbucks double shot on ice. At
least”—I stop to have a chuckle—“when she has money on her Starbucks app, she
does.”
“Does she
have money on her app, Vaughn?” a reporter from an internet blog asks me.
He’s
nice, and funny. And never too serious about what he prints. “Her coffee
worries are over, yes.”
Now they
chuckle with me and I turn away and start walking down the street to the
Starbucks. Half of them follow, but they stay behind me. Like a little train of
leeches—annoying, but harmless.
See, this
is how you handle the media. You don’t have to give them what they want, you
just have to give them something they can use. Now they have two
factoids about Grace to run with. Tomorrow everyone will be drinking that
coffee concoction and the blueberry muffins will be sold out.
The day
after tomorrow, they will be after the personal details of someone else and no
one will give a shit about us until the next movie comes out, or I get
nominated for an award, or Grace gets pregnant.
God. that
makes me smile like an idiot and when I look over at Ray, he’s shaking his
head. “What?” I ask him.
He holds
up a hand. “Nothing.”
We turn
right at 16th Street and head down towards the Starbucks.
“But,” he
continues, “you have a stupid grin on your face. And if I didn’t know better,
I’d say you are in love.”
“I am in
love.” I let out a breath. “I love this girl. I’m gonna marry her again and get
her pregnant, and spend the rest of my life bossing her ass around and pissing
her off.” I glance back at Ray. “She likes it. But she also likes to fight it.”
“Mmm-hmm.
If you say so, boss.”

Description:
I just want my
Grace back.
I want the girl I found sending me dirty tweets on Saint Thomas. I want the girl who reluctantly gave in to my charms and let me boss her around. I want the girl who sent me to my knees and made me imagine what her fairy tale would look like with me in it.
I just want to move on.
I want to plan the future and think about kids and preschools and college funds. I want everything she ever wanted, and I want us to make it happen together.
But the media needs more from us. More dirt. More pain. More payment for past transgressions.
You can’t change the past. And even though Grace is ready to put her demons to bed, mine are just starting to get restless. Because when you’ve silenced as many enemies as I have over the years, you know that secret won’t stay buried forever.

About the Author
J. A. Huss likes to write new adult books that make you think and keep you guessing. Her favorite genre to read is space opera, but since practically no one reads those books, she writes new adult science fiction, paranormal romance, contemporary romance, urban fantasy, and books about Junco (who refuses to be saddled with a label).
She has an undergraduate degree in horses, (yes, really–Thank you, Colorado State University) and a master’s degree in forensic toxicology from the University of Florida. She used to have a job driving around Colorado doing pretty much nothing but shooting the breeze with farmers, but now she just writes, runs the New Adult Addiction and Clean Teen Reads Book Blogs, and runs an online science classroom for homeschoolers.
