Story
After that close-up of his package on the sailboat in Morocco, TMZ started calling him Crown Jewels. Not that I keep track of Prince Liam. Definitely don’t stalk him online like my friends do. I’m out of that scene now. My family’s reality show might still be running, but I’ve been off-screen for a while. When people pass me on the sidewalk, they might squint, but most of them don’t scream “Lucy Rhodes” and ask about my love of Lucky Charms or how my broken toe healed. Prince Liam - my stalking his Instagram - that’s just for fun. It’s my dirty little secret.

Story
If Manhattan were a kingdom, Elise would be a noble. Daughter of a dark lord. Daughter of a kingpin. Although that part would surprise her. Every kingdom has a villain. A renegade who's only there to make the crown fall. That's the role that I play. When we met, I tried to warn her. Tried to tell her I had secrets. But she made me want to be more. I couldn't be the hero, but I tried for just a little while. Let's just say it didn't end well.

Secrets. Everybody has them. Big, small, innocent...forbidden. Mindy was a line I should never have crossed. But I did. She was beautiful...sassy and tempting. And rules were made to be broken. We broke them all. Now I’m home, released from service with hidden scars. Now my secrets are the demons that grow stronger every day. I try to send her away, but I can’t let her go. She’s my reason to fight, and I’ll walk through hell to be the man she deserves. To give her a reason to stay here with me.

You think you know me. That's the way I want it. Making you feel like we know each other - like we could go grab a beer sometime - is part of my job. Maybe the most vital part. It doesn't hurt that I'm easy on the eyes, single at 35, and born richer than sin. My aesthetic matters much more than it should, but all the better for my worthy cause. And it's a worthy cause. I've made an art out of making you feel good, and my influence makes you want to be good. Good like me. You think you know me, but you don't. Everyone has secrets. Mine could cost me everything.

Looking back, I should have seen the signs. Perhaps I did, but I subconsciously chose to ignore them. From the time I was ten, when I first met Dylan, I knew he was my forever guy. Back then, I couldn’t put words to what I was feeling, but, as the years progressed, I came to recognize it for what it was - soul-deep love. The kind only very few people ever get to experience. Dylan was more than just my best friend, my childhood sweetheart, my lover. He was my soul mate. We were carved from the same whole - destined to be together forever. Until he changed.

The man had seemed so innocent in the bar - okay, not innocent, per say. He’d been hot, hard, and possessed a butt that I wanted to bite like the last chocolate chip cookie in my stash. He’d also skipped out of town faster than a villain in a B movie, leaving me woefully unsatisfied. I’d chalked the whole incident up to a bad night stand and moved on with my life. That was before the news of a failed IUD. Before the plus sign. Before Jordan showed back up determined to make that night up to me. I didn’t want a baby or a payday or a sexy, stubborn man in my life.

Summary
A sexy and emotional Amazon Top 10 best seller from Ella James, USA Today best-selling author
The boy next door. That's what he was. Dash Frasier - my hero from the day we met, when I was six and he was nine. His sister was my best friend, the three of us one happy crew. Then one sweaty summer night changed everything.
No one understood me like Dash. No one made me feel so loved. That's why, when he skipped town, it wrecked me. Now I'm older. Wiser. I've just snagged my dream job, writing at a film studio. The lead animator on my project? You guessed it.
He's not the boy next door. Not anymore.
I'm guarding my heart this time.
But Dash has secrets that could break us both.

Have tissues on hand.
The tears didn’t do more than brim my eyes through most of the story but near the end they broke over. EJ did a really good job of making me wonder ??? What was he hiding? Could it be that bad, he seemed to love her so much? At one point I thought I had it, I was so sure and was trying to guess how’d she’d react. But I was wrong. My poor little heart broke for both of them when he gave her his shame. I loved that EJ gave them a bird theme it was cute and sweetened things. His nickname for her and them always sitting on the roof. I read this right after Crowns Jewels so this is now my second EJ book and so far I like her style. It’s not what I would consider dark but it’s not fluffy clouds and fairy tales. It’s got more of a yeah I think this could be a true story vibe. JFH & AV also did great work on the audio they sounded great together.

Not your typical boy next door.
What a tragically beautiful love story. Its heart breaking at times and definitely has the ability to cause intense emotional reaction. I loved the main characters and it was easy to share in their emotional turmoil and enjoy their love story. The narrators did an amazing job telling the story. I highly recommend this story.

Thought provoking,filled w/unlikely sadness to HEA
First of all, the narrators deserve recognition for a great job!!! As we all know, narration can make or break any story so well deserved kudos to the narrators for a rendition that added to the writing.
The book is one of those I call a "This but That" or a "Wish I shoulda, coulda, woulda..." kind of tale. There are so many facets to the story that a person can see the different motives and even assign blame to each character. However, as I have lived life I have come to the realization that blame is useless waste of energy unless we learn from it. There are many victims in this novel including the most deeply disturbed character (who will remain nameless to avoid ruining it for prospective readers). Someting made that person that way and s/he needs professional help. One other life lesson I could identify with is how secrets, while painful to reveal, can actually cause more damage in the long run as they eat away at individuals and families if left unrevealed. Even though this tale ends with a HEA for the main characters, I was still left with a somewhat sick feeling in my stomach and pervasive thoughts about the book. These thoughts led to the "this person could/should have done this/that but was influenced by this/that/who" which leads me to my characterization at the beginning of the paragraph of the novel. But it is a mark of a good book that makes us think, IMO.
While I felt this was a well written story with much creative imagination, I deducted one point due to an underlying feeling of being emotionally manipulated by several unlikely events of the novel. There are too many sad aspects to both Ammy's and Dash's life, the unlikiness of how they meet up again later in life, the timing of the event just prior to their first date upon their reconciliation plus many other events. The plethora of sad events made me think no one has this much unrelieved sadness in their lives. In fact, the only purely positive relationship in their lives were each other and that got trashed early on as well. Then I could identify with Ammy's feelings but struggled to understand all of Dash's decisions. It might be reasonable that a 64 year old female would find it difficult to identify with an 18 year old male mind but I have a son with whom I have almost always had a close and sympathico relationship.
In the end, that 4 star rating is more of a 3.5. Would I read another book by this author? Yes but will hope it will be thought provoking and with a HEA without the overwhelming sadness I found in this one.

Story was ok
But listening for 5 1/2 hours to find out the “hero’s” big secret. Very frustrating and anti-climatic. Dash’s character was weak & pathetic. I’d pass on this installment of the series.

A MUST READ!
I'm left speechless! I loved their story. I felt with the both of them. I was mad with Amelia and sad with Dash. By the end I was in Love and wanted more.
For anyone who is wondering if they need to read the other book before you read this you don't have to, this is a complete standalone.
