I wasn't sure how this was going to play out for me- I'm not much of a derby fan was worried I would feel disconnected But for this journey? It was the perfect sport Emotional Real Raw The slow build between Mayhem and Priest? It was paced perfectly The tension between Tilly and Maisey? It brought an important element to the overall story Lana and the truth of her past? It just endeared certain characters to me that much more Eve and her jealousy? I look forward to her story Micha... that's a little secret you will have to find out on your own. Not only will the main characters attach themselves to you but I believe you will be just as enamored with the supporting cast I laughed - I wiped away a couple of tears - and I fell in love Maisey had a rough start - a sort of reoccurring transplant history when it came to her childhood. Nothing was ever permanent in her life. She learned that the hard way and at a very young age. Only two things take up residence in her world now Derby and the children she volunteers with There is no room for anything else in her life Cain is bathing in a vat of self-loathing - One of his own making and an intricate part of the story He has been for years. He was only back in town to help his sister - Quick stop - In and out - No connections - No... Ahhh hades! The best-laid plans just got knocked away Looks like life found a way to give them both what they needed even if they didn't know they wanted it

This is the 1st book I've read written by Casey Hagen; I can’t wait to read more of her books. This is the first book in the Beautifully Brutal Series; I loved the story line; the characters were well written. I received a free copy of this book via booksprout and I’m voluntarily leaving a review.
