I was so excited to see that S.L. Scott was giving me Jason's story. I loved this mysterious man in the Kingwood Duet and was so ready to get to know him more. Maybe I should've read the blurb because I wasn't expecting Solace to be such a sweet story. That's not to say there wasn't some drama and danger because there was....
But first Jason! Broody, absolutely. Protective, without a single doubt. After being all around and back again, he finds himself home. I liked how being home and surrounded with the people of his childhood brought out a much lighter side to him. But no one had a bigger effect on him than one Delilah Noelle. The woman he's loved for as long as he can remember. I liked Delilah- a lot. She was vulnerable but determined to protect herself from the only thing that could really destroy her; Jason leaving again. Too bad for her, Jason had no plans of going anywhere. He wanted his woman back and he wasn't going to let her jerk of an ex or their small town sway him. As much as I devoured Solace, I found the final third of the book a bit soft (if that's the right word). I know that Jason was changing his ways and still very protective but there was more than one instance where the dialogue was downright sappy. However, that didn't detract from the overall intensity and there was that showdown that had my heart absolutely pounding. From cobbler to nights at the lake, S.L. Scott wove a second-chance romance that was as sexy as it was sweet. About the Author
