Body & Soul (Twist of Fate Book #3)

For this next series, Lucy Lennox teamed up with Sloane Kennedy to write the Twist of Fate series. The third book in the series is "Body & Soul".

["Oz: Escaping the international modeling scene to design my own fashion collection is the first step to shucking my bobble-headed supermodel reputation and proving to the world I’m more than just a pretty face. But the minute I have to accept roadside help from the sexy man next door, I feel like the airhead people think I am. And what’s worse, the man clearly doesn’t think I’m worth the time of day.

But despite trying to ignore my attraction to the mysterious doctor, I can’t help but be drawn to him. With every moment spent together, I begin to realize he’s hiding more than just some details of his past. He has one foot out the door.

As soon as I start to feel like everything might be coming together for me, I realize the man I’m falling in love with isn’t who I thought he was.

Jake: After three years on the run for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, I’ve finally found a seemingly safe place to settle in Haven, Colorado. With friends, a job, and a cabin in the woods, I have everything I need to live a simple life without drawing attention to myself. Everything’s fine. Fine.

Until I meet my new neighbor. The gorgeous man is anything but subtle and brings color to my life that I didn’t know was missing. But I learned years ago that falling in love with someone wasn’t an option anymore when simply being seen with me could have dire consequences. It’s time for me to run again, but I wonder if it’s safe to stick around just long enough for a taste…

Just when I begin to realize Oz is the missing piece to bring me back to life after years of hiding, my past catches up to me and throws everyone around me into danger. I know I should run, but what if it’s time to finally stop running and make a stand, once and for all?"]

Another trope: idiot boys who are afraid of their own feelings as well as their past/future so they just don't communicate any of them with their current love interest. 

Except in this instance, they literally shouldn't (or in Jake instance, can't) talk about them. Or like...major bad shit will happen.

Sure, Jake is an asshole (in the beginning only). But he's doing it to protect himself and his life in Haven (and sort of Oz).

And Oz is a big of a fake (if you include the secret about who he really is and why he's running from New York--and that whole Kill Them With Kindness thing, though my dad taught me that same thing but with smiling instead).

But it somehow turns out to be a foreplay thing. Because the longer they fight their attraction and their chemistry, the hotter it will be (and it was pretty damn hot).

Including appearances from Bennett and Xander, Ash and Aiden, and a few more amazing new friends (and some familiar old ones).

There are a few trigger warnings for this book, but if I post about them, it will literally spoil a shit ton of stuff (and like give away the last rising action, the entire climax, and part of the resolution). If you want them anyway, message me.
