Book Review: Things We Hide From The Light
Summary
Nash Morgan was always known as the good Morgan brother, with a smile and a wink for everyone. But now, this chief of police is recovering from being shot and his Southern charm has been overshadowed by panic attacks and nightmares. He feels like a broody shell of the man he once was. Nash isn’t about to let anyone in his life know he’s struggling. But his new next-door neighbor, smart and sexy Lina, sees his shadows. As a rule, she’s not a fan of physical contact unless she initiates it, but for some reason Nash’s touch is different. He feels it too. The physical connection between them is incendiary, grounding him and making her wonder if exploring it is worth the risk.
Too bad Lina’s got secrets of her own, and if Nash finds out the real reason she’s in town, he’ll never forgive her. Besides, she doesn’t do relationships. Ever. A hot, short-term fling with a local cop? Absolutely. Sign her up. A relationship with a man who expects her to plant roots? No freaking way. Once she gets what she’s after, she has no intention of sticking around. But Knockemout has a way of getting under people’s skin. And once Nash decides to make Lina his, he’s not about to be dissuaded…even if it means facing the danger that nearly killed him.
Review
This book was a long one! We go through the journey of Nash’s recovery from being shot in the previous book and learn more about his life growing up. This was super emotional to read about how he was dealing with the darkness and unknown that follows an event like that.
I loved the growth of Lina throughout the book and how much she was there for everyone. She also went through some scary stuff growing up and has put up some walls to let others in. We really see her open up and break down those walls to let others in.
You know I love a little suspense and we get that towards the end! A big mystery from Things We Never Got Over is solved and wow-that was such a surprise! And like any Lucy Score book 🌶️ spice!
