About The Beginning of the End:
Ambrey My last name was royalty in New Orleans, at least, I guess to those who mattered. But to me…my last name was a curse. High society. Expectations. Old money. Politics. Everything I despised. If only they could see what happened behind those high-society closed doors. The same doors my daddy paid a lot of money to keep closed. Deceit. Destruction. Bribery. You name it, my family was guilty of it. My father’s throne was built on lies. Our family was the epitome of faux royalty. Then, I fell in love and oh what a fool I was. I was just a pawn in my father’s game. And to use the man who claimed to love me... Five years ago, I walked away, and left my father to his riches. And that man who left me in broken, jagged pieces? Well, what goes around, comes around. Grey Four years in a prison cell changes a man. I spent those five years fighting to survive. When I emerged, I was nothing like the man who had walked through those cell doors all those years ago. I overcame things that I never imagined I’d be faced with.. The one person who promised to never leave, did. The life I thought I knew, gone. The future I once thought I had, up in smoke. Like so many things in my life, my story and my future were stolen from me. Sure, it’s made up of the usual parts…a beginning and an end. But just like every story, there’s a hero, there’s the villain…and then there’s me. And this is the beginning of the end.Get Your Copy Today!
Review:
This was a sweet second chance romance between two people that had an undeniable connection. Grey and Ambrey met in high school; she was from a prominent and wealthy family, and he was the bad boy from the other side of the tracks. The thing they had in common was the love they shared for one another. Until that love was tested and nothing was ever the same.
Now eight years later, they run into each other and that fire burns hotter than ever between the two. Grey is swoony and very protective. Especially of his baby girl, Emily Kate. I thought Ambrey was a strong and beautiful character; I could see parts of myself in her. She was strong yet vulnerable in so many ways.
I personally took a bit longer to feel that connection between the main characters. But when I did, it was great! If truth be told, I’m actually itching for the best friends of the story, Madison and Bishop—they’re my favorite type of tropey relationship goodness! Overall, I liked this and give it a big thumbs up!
