More Than A Feeling-Author Sara Richardson

3.5 stars

This book was won in a Goodreads Giveaway.

This was the first book that I have read by the author, third in the series and can be read as a standalone.  I enjoyed the characters, the story and the setting. 

Ruby James has had a hard life.  She knows what it feels like to be down and when she has had enough, she plans her escape.  Although she is not sure where she is going, anywhere far away would be great.  She ends up in Aspen, Colorado.  She can be anyone she wants here.  But she has secrets that she plans to keep.  If only for her safety.  But after being here for a year, she starts to feel like she can breathe without fear.  She has no desire to want to be with another man but when police office, Sawyer Hawkins, shows an interest, things that Ruby thought she had hidden might find their way out.

Sawyer Hawkins, police office and over all handsome fella has a thing for Ruby.  He wants to know her better and plans to stop and nothing til he uncovers all her secrets.  He knows she is running from something but just not sure what it is.  He has been around women enough to know, she is attracted to him, but can he break down the walls that she has built around her and get to know the true Ruby James?

The story was not only about abuse in a relationship but the power to over your fear and live.  I thought the story flowed smoothly.  And once the truth is revealed, it will make you understand completely why Ruby keep her secrets. 

I plan to read more from this author.  Plus I absolutely love the area that her stories are set in.
