SAFE AT LAST is the third book in the Slow Burn
series. It
can be read as a standalone but the Slow Burn seris
is a sizzling series with
powerful characters and you'll want to read them all.
SAFE AT LAST reunites Zack Covington and Anna-Grace after
a
twelve year separation. Zack has always known that "his
Gracie" was the one for him. So he is devastated when
she disappears without a word. He has spent twelve year
trying to
find out what happened to her.
Working for Deveraux Security Services (DSS) Zack comes
across
a painting that he knows only Gracie could have painted.
As
he is confronting the art gallery owner about the painter
Gracie walks in. Once he is face to face with Gracie,
Zack is
devastated by Gracie's response to seeing him and he is
trying
to understand her reaction to him. Grace has been lead to
believe all these years that Zack was responsible for her
pain
all those years before.
When Zack finally learns why Gracie reacts the way she
does,
he loses it. He is even further devastated to learn who
was
behind all the pain that Gracie endured twelve years ago.
Not
only did Gracie suffer horrendous pain twelve years ago
but
she suffers more pain when Zack's enemies target her.
Zack
feels responsible for both incidents because he feels he
was
not there to protect her.
There is so much pain in this story until it's a wonder
anyone
can survive it. Zack and Gracie have both been through so
much heartbreak and your heart breaks for them when you
learn
how they both suffered and were betrayed.
Zack has finally found 'his Gracie" and vows that somehow
he
will win her back. Once Gracie sees Zack's reaction to
learning about what happened to her she begins to wonder
if
she maybe mistaken in blaming him. Zack and Gracie
finally
find their way back to each other after wading through all
their pain and suffering.
These DSS men have extraordinary women who have
extraordinary
powers that they use to come to a friend's rescue. If
SAFE AT LAST is
the first book you are reading in this series I absolutely
recommend books one and two. The women are extraordinary
and
the men are kick ass amazing.
SAFE AT LAST is a story about coming out on the other side
of
devastation and perseverance when it looks like all is
lost.
When you pick up any novel by Maya Banks you will not be
disappointed because she knows how to pull you in.
SUMMARY
They say young love doesn't last, but a girl from the wrong
side of the tracks with unique abilities and the hometown
golden boy were determined to defy the odds. For Zack
Covington, Anna-Grace—his "Gracie"—was the one.
Until one night forever alters the course of their future,
when a devastated Gracie disappears without a trace, leaving
Zack to agonize over what happened to the girl he loved. As
the years pass, his desperate efforts to find her uncovered
nothing. Now working for Devereaux Security, he stumbles across a
painting featuring a special place only he and Gracie would
know. The image is too perfectly rendered for it to be
coincidence. His Gracie must be alive. When he finally
tracks her down, he is shocked—and
heart-broken—to discover the wounded shell of the girl
he once knew and still loves. Her psychic gifts are gone,
and worse, she believes he betrayed her all those years ago. Zack has enemies, and once his weakness is discovered,
Gracie becomes a target for revenge. He'll have to save her
before he can earn her trust and her love. And he vows
they'll never be torn apart again.
