[ob-li-gey-shuh n]
An obligation is a course of action that someone is required
to take, whether legal or moral.
At six years old, Myla was sent to a family her father and
mother had chosen for her when they knew their time on earth was almost up.
What they were unaware of was what they thought would be her safe haven would
become her living hell.
Kai has been watching Myla from afar since he took over the
family business from his father and inherited the responsibility of keeping her
safe. When word gets back to Kai that Myla is not only in danger, but that his
assets are being compromised, he immediately jumps into action and does the
only thing that can be done at the time by marrying her.
Neither Myla nor Kai would have thought that something that
started off as a farce would become the most important thing either of them
could've ever done.
4 Stars
This is the second book in the Underground Kings
series. They can be read as standalones,
but the two books are entwined and overlap some.
This is a great read and a great series. It's a series I will continue to read.
This is Kai and Myla's story.
We met Kai in Assumption.
He is a huge Hawaiian man. I was
curious about him in the first book, and so glad he got his story told.
Myla had a great childhood, until she turned 16. Then everything changed. I was curious about why her birth parents
gave her away, and now I understand why they made such a great decision and the
how it was the right one to make. They
loved her so much. Her adoptive parents
are great to her, and also love her a lot.
They don't really know, or understand, why she has pulled away from
them. She never told them.
I really like how their story starts. They are already married. Kai says it's to keep her safe. We learn later, how being married to him would
do just that.
But what happens when their marriage goes from being and
obligation to one with real feelings of love?
"No idea that, when I married you, I would end up with
this.' He presses deeper into me. 'I knew when I told you we should try to make
this work that I wanted it to, but I didn't realize how important it was going
to become to me. The idea of being
without you is almost unbearable."
“Everyone is looking
for you.”
I turn my head, pulling my hair out of my face as I watch a
boy I’ve never seen before climb up the stairs and into my tree house.
“Who are you?” I ask him as he sits across from me.
“Kai,” he smiles, looking around. He looks a lot different
than the other kids I know. His hair is long, and his skin is a lot darker than
mine. “Why are you hiding?”
I shrug and look away from him. Daddy was yelling earlier;
he was so mad that he was turning red. Then Mommy started crying, and Daddy
started yelling louder. I heard Mommy telling Daddy that he had to send me
away. I don’t want to go away. I try to be good, but sometimes, I forget to
listen.
“Why are you crying?”
I look up at him and wipe my face. “I’m scared,” I whisper,
wiping my nose.
“Come on. I’ll protect you,” he says, holding his hand out
to me.
Then my mommy calls my name again. I look at his hand, move
Mr. Bear under my arm, and put my hand in his.
“Myla!” Mommy yells, running towards me.
I can tell she has been crying again.
“Where did you go?” Her hands grab my shoulders and she
shakes me hard.
“It’s my fault. I asked her to show me the tree house,” Kai
tells her.
She stops shaking me then looks at him. “You shouldn’t have
done that. You knew we were looking for her,” she says angrily her head.
“I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking,” Kai says softly, putting his
hands in his pockets and looking at the ground.
I look back at Mommy, and she shakes her head before
grabbing my hand and pulling me with her. When I look over my shoulder at Kai,
he smiles, making me smile back.
Excerpt 2
I feel the sun on my closed eyelids and something sharp
poking me in the face. Moving my hand, trying to get away from the pain, I
whimper when it scrapes against my cheek. I lift my head and run my fingers
along the side of my face, feeling wetness. Opening my eyes to see a light
smear of blood on my fingers. I flip my hand over, and then I see the gaudy
ring that is now taking up residence on my ring finger.
“Great,” I whisper, closing my eyes and laying my head down
again.
I prayed earlier, before I went to sleep, that when I woke
up, the ring I’m wearing now and the man who put it there would be nothing but
a bad dream. No such luck. I roll over and take a shaky breath, wanting to
close my eyes for a few more seconds, wishing I could just sleep until everything
was back to normal.

as•sump•tion:
a thing that is accepted as true or as certain to happen,
without proof
They say when you assume that you make an ass out of you and
me. Kenton Mayson learned this lesson firsthand when he made assumptions about
Autumn Freeman and the kind of woman she is based on what little information he
had. What he finds out is she’s not only beautiful, but also smart, funny, a
fighter, and exactly the kind of woman he wants to share his life with. Autumn
made assumptions of her own about Kenton, and now he needs to prove her wrong
in order to protect her and their future.
