Knox Bauer's life has unraveled to the point of no return. Fighting to fill the emptiness inside himself, he seeks solace in unfamiliar beds with unfamiliar women. As guardian to his three younger brothers, he can't seem to do a thing right. But this can't go on...they look up to him in every way and all he’s done lately is prove how messed up he really is. Needing a change, he attends a local Sex Addicts Anonymous meeting, where he finds himself tempted by the alluring instructor, McKenna.
Twenty-one year old McKenna is trying
to make amends. After losing her parents in a horrific accident, she
knows if she can just be good enough, maybe she can forgive herself
for what happened. With her newly acquired degree in counseling, she
begins leading a sex addicts group where she meets the troubled Knox
and her life takes on complications she never bargained for. She
doesn't have time for a bad boy who only wants to take her to bed,
even if her body disagrees. The fixer in her wants to help, but
trusting Knox's true motivations might take more courage than she
has.

After a trying week
with my brothers, the last thing I wanted to do was go to my Sex
Addicts Anonymous meeting—but the promise of seeing McKenna there
forced my hand. I wanted to watch the way her eyes gravitated toward
mine, and the soft flush of pink that warmed her cheeks when she
spoke. She was a curiosity. A fun plaything to entertain me since I
had to sit through the torture of being there.

5 Stars!
This was such a unique book. I had never read a book about a sex addiction. Not that I can remember anyway. A sex addict is court ordered to attend meetings...and falls for the virgin who oversees it? Crazy, huh?! But seriously the characters are amazing. You will fall in love with them all!
It was a wonderful book but ended with a heck of a cliffhanger. :/ I really can't wait to read the next book in the series.
A must read...get it now!
