Release + Review - Harloe Rae - Ask Me Why

One deep breath. Two slow blinks. Three hollow beats.

I’m still here.
After three years, that reminder isn’t as necessary. But everyone has their bad days. This is definitely one of them.
Until an adorable little boy dashes into my store.
His zest for life makes me smile in a way that’s been long lost.
Then I meet his father.
Well, confront is more like it.

Brance Stone is volatile.
Offensive.
Harsh.
And can’t be bothered to care.
Not that I want him to.
I get frostbite just looking into Brance’s glacial stare. But there’s something undeniable about him.

My misery suddenly craves company. The suffocating numbness lifts whenever Brance is near. That alone should have me running in the opposite direction. Try as I might, there’s no avoiding him. If only I could understand why. As if he’d let me.

I don’t ask. He doesn’t tell. A silent, bitter truce settles between us.
That was our first mistake.
It’s certainly not the last.

Our Review

Do you have tissues I can borrow? Ask Me Why is an amazingly beautiful and emotional book. This book will make you laugh and cry. This book left me in a hangover state for days. If you love a good romance novel, this is for you.

This book is about healing. Both main characters have had some traumatic experiences in their past. They let them overshadow their life. I feel like this book asks the readers to think about how the healing process works. Will they heal together or cause more damage?

Braelyn is such a sweet character. My heart really ached for her. I loved how realistic her actions and experiences are. Then you have Brance. Mr. Alpha himself. He is tough, but also has more to him.

The heat is unmatched in this book. I mean out together an alpha male with a snarky woman who cannot keep her mouth shut and what did you expect. I really enjoyed these scenes.

The writing style of this book is great. The pace is steady. The story is told from a dual point of view. I loved all the characters. It really caused me to go through some strong emotions.

In conclusion, this is a great book. Yes it made me cry, bt in the best way. I would recommend this book to others.

EXCERPT 

Brance’s suit is deliciously rumpled. A naughty gleam lingers in his eyes. Evidence of our kiss lingers on his lips, slightly swollen and red. His hair sticks up in sexy disarray, sections pointing in every direction. I curl my fingers, hiding the guilty offenders. But combing through those silky strands will be committed to memory. I want to do that again, multiple times. But I tamp my trampy side down. For now.

He makes quick work of straightening his tie. “You owe me a story.”

A boulder drops in my gut. “Now?”

Brance sweeps the brown locks off his forehead, erasing more proof of our tryst. “Nah, gotta get back to the office.”

“Already?” I’m still recovering from my orgasm.

He smooths the wrinkles from his shirt. “My schedule leaves no time for deviations. I have a full calendar every day. This indiscretion cost me several hours. I’ll be working late to catch up.”

“Was that a dig at me?”

“Does it matter?”

“Really, Brance? Just like that?”

“Were you expecting something else?”

I open my mouth, then close it. Was I? How could I? Brance smirks at my extended silence.

“That’s what I thought.” He tops it off with a wink for good measure.

“You’re such an—”

“Asshole. Yeah, got it. I don’t have time to rehash the details.”
