A sexy new romance about a small-town woman who saves the life of a mysterious man, and finds herself unexpectedly thrown into a whirlwind love affair, featuring bestselling author K. A. Tucker’s signature “well-constructed, pulse-pounding suspense” (USA TODAY).

Twenty-four-year-old truck stop waitress and single mother Catherine Wright has simple goals: to give her five-year-old daughter a happy life and to never again be the talk of the town in Balsam, Pennsylvania: population two thousand outside of tourist season.

And then one foggy night, on a lonely road back from another failed attempt at a relationship, Catherine saves a man’s life. It isn’t until after the police have arrived that Catherine realizes exactly who it is she has saved: Brett Madden, hockey icon and media darling.

Catherine has already had her fifteen minutes of fame and the last thing she wants is to have her past dragged back into the spotlight, only this time on a national stage. So she hides her identity. It works.

For a time.

But when she finds the man she saved standing on her doorstep, desperate to thank her, all that changes. What begins as an immediate friendship quickly turns into something neither of them expected. Something that Catherine isn’t sure she can handle; something that Catherine is afraid to trust.

Because how long can an extraordinary man like Brett be interested in an ordinary woman like Catherine… before the spark fades?

Until It Fades

Tô amando o jeito que eu tô devorando os livros ultimamente. Eu gostei bastante desse aqui, era exatamente o que eu tava precisando ler. Um slow burn bem feito me faz querer ler mais slow burns, porém vamos vendo… Gostei de como a história progrediu, do choque no final que eu não esperava mesmo. Gostei de todos os personagens, menos do queridíssimo (sabemos quem é 🤡). A única coisa que eu não gostei muito foi que eu achei meio descritivo demais pro meu gosto. Eu gosto de bastante diálogo, e embora teve bastante no livro, eu sinto que tinha algumas partes muito descritivas sobre os locais, sobre alguma coisa específica que não adicionava muito no contexto. Mas fora isso foi uma ótima leitura.
