SYNOPSIS:

Unspoken Promises are worse than lies.

Morgan Kennedy and Lincoln Gates have been in love since high school. Their friends have envied their devotion to not only each other, but also the life they’ve made together. From the

outside looking in, their relationship is perfect. One mirrored of fairytales. But behind the door, Morgan isn’t feeling as fulfilled as she once did. She wants more. She wants the glass slipper and

the happily ever after.

What Lincoln and Morgan don’t anticipate is that a horrific event is about to make them second-guess their wants.

EXCERPT:

“What happened to us, Lincoln? Where did things go wrong?” she mutters uneasily. Tears slowly find their way down her cheeks.

“I wish I had the answer, but I don’t.” My voice wavers.

“I don’t know how much longer I can keep doing this. I’m losing myself. I hate who I’ve become,” she shakes her head regretfully.

“I hate that I’m hurting you.”

I get up and sit next to her. I place my hand under her chin, lifting her face so I can see her. “I love you. You know that, don’t you?”

“I know you love me. That’s never been the problem.” Her faint smile holds a touch of sadness.

How do two people that love each other repair what has been broken? Can we? Seeing her sad is breaking me. I’m such a dumbass for not realizing how much she's hurting watching her best friend get something she wants so bad. Something that I’m not willing to give her.

The ride home takes about an hour with the city traffic this time of night. With Morgan’s hand clasped with mine we enter my apartment. The sound of the door shutting echoes in the living room. I turn the lock and toss my keys on the table next to the door.

I follow Morgan in to the bedroom. I lean down and place a gentle kiss against her lips. The touch of her lips is a delicious sensation. I raise my mouth from hers and gaze into her eyes. Christian was right. They are sad. How haven’t I noticed how much this is affecting her?

She pushes up against me to meet my lips again. Morgan showers kisses around my lips and along my jaw. Her breath smells sweet, like the fruity cocktail she was drinking at the wedding reception. The kisses are slow and sensual that drive me wild. My mouth swoops down to capture hers. She parts her lips granting me access to her tongue. Her tongue tastes sugary. My lips recapture hers, more demanding this time.

I pull away from her and gaze into her dark brown eyes. My hands make their way to her face, cupping her cheeks. “I love you, Morgan,” I say against her hips.

She bites her lip, and a groan passes through my lips. My chest heaves uncontrollably. It’s been a few weeks since we’ve been intimate.

Slowly my fingertips pull the zipper of her dress. Once it reaches the bottom, her strapless dress falls to the floor. Her flawless body stands before be in a lacey black strapless bra and matching thong.

I gently outline her nipples, causing her to suck in a quick breath. Her nipples harden immediately from being teased. I gradually work my way to the clasp at the back undoing it. Her bra falls to the floor and I can’t help but lean down and take her nipple into my mouth.

Her hands pull on my hair. I press kisses, feathery and light, followed by little love bites as I make my way down her body. Morgan shivers and arches against me. I guide her toward the bed until the back of her thighs hit the mattress.

“Lie down.”

Morgan complies and I take her breast into my mouth and suck hard. She moans, when I bite her nipple.

When I look up, I see a mark on her breast. I sucked a little too hard. I should feel bad, but I don’t. Instead, I feel proud. Possessive. I love leaving my mark on Morgan.

I rip her panties off and throw them to the side.

Morgan gasps and looks down at me. “They were brand new,” she says angrily.

“They were in the way… I’ll buy you new ones.”

I continue to torture her with kisses along her stomach, her hip, then her thighs. My hands stroke the inside of her thigh. I explore the sexy curves that lead to her tight little ass.

“Stop teasing me,” she pleads.

When I find her clit, I suck on her sensitive bud. She cries out and grips my hair and grinds against my face.

I lick her, kiss her, torture her with my mouth until she is chanting my name.

“Lincoln, oh, God.”

I smile as I bite her clit, then suck on it.

“Don’t stop. Just like that.” Her orgasm hits her hard. She pulls my face against her and grinds against my face. Her other hand grips the sheet as she cries out.

Her back arches off the bed and her body trembles.

I don’t give her time to recover as I make my way up her body, trailing kisses along the way.

“Who do you belong to, Morgan? Tell me.” My voice low and demanding.

“You,” she moans “Always, you.” Her voice unsteady. She closes her eyes.

“Look at me, don’t close your eyes. I need to see your eyes. You need to know who is doing this to you.”

She blinks, then her eyes blaze up at me.

“I’ll fight for you. Don’t give up on us.” I kiss the tip of her nose and climb off the bed to quickly undress.

REVIEW:

"Promise, is a big word. It either makes something or breaks everything." ~ Unknown

I have been team Lincoln and Morgan since the beginning. Their relationship seemed so flawless and I wanted to see them grow. H.p. Davenport does a great job with this second book. She will capture your emotions and suck them dry. It's as if you are on one big roller coaster. There is enough drama to captivate you without being over the top. Don't worry there will be some happy times. She does a fantastic job broaching  such a difficult situation. Keep in mind though this crosses over some scenes from the first book. 

Lincoln and Morgan were the couple that everyone wants to be like. He owns a couple of clubs while she helps manages it. When a situation occurs at their club it hits way too close to home for them and their group of friends. One tragic moment will be the domino effect to their future. 

"You've always been the air that I need to breathe. But recently, I feel like I am drowning."

They have never had any issues communicating in the past. But this situation tilts them around and causes them to hold back. In doing so they became withdrawn and drifted apart. Keeping their relationship in tact becomes the least of their worries. They both are filled with so much guilt they don't know how to get past it. I was angry with a both of them throughout the book. They are  both stubborn and it made it harder for them to come to terms with what is tearing them apart. They once used to depend on one another but now they seem so alone. 

"Let me help. Let me help pick up the broken pieces. I'll help make you whole again. We'll become whole together."

 I loved how they would try to make it work though.  I also loved how their friends care so much for them their run interference. You want them so badly to make it work. It seems though that Lincoln and Morgan have wanted different things and there is no fixing it. They have tried several attempts but it just seems to be too late. When something else  comes between the two of them it causes a greater rift. I loved how the author handled this sticky situation. It's a tough one to read, I can imagine write and she does a great job coming across it. 

"I would trade all of my tomorrows for just one more day with you. Once more chance to make it work."

Are Morgan and Lincoln forever done? Or will they be able to get past their differences? Will this new situation make them stronger or push them further apart? Will their rift tear apart their friendships?

"All relationships go through hell; real relationships get through it." ~ Unknown

You u will love Lincoln and Morgan. Their relationship is a delicate one. You must set one another free. If it's meant to be you'll find your way back. As hard as it is to let one another go it's the only alternative. Now go find out if they make it back to one another stronger than ever.
