Publisher's summary

From NYT and USA Today Best-selling Author A.L. Jackson comes the next seductive, unforgettable Bleeding Stars stand-alone novel...

Zachary Kennedy has never been known as a fighter, but he'll never regret fighting for her...

I'm Zee Kennedy.

Quiet. Reserved. Predictable.

When my brother died, everyone thought I was just the good guy who stepped up to take his place in the band.

No one knew what I was hiding. The one thing I've been fighting for.

For six years, I've never lost focus.

Not until one chance encounter with Alexis Kensington.

Now she's become my greatest temptation.

I knew better than to touch her, but now that I've had a taste, I can't get enough.

Her kiss becomes my air. Her body, my salvation.

She needed a savior and somehow she became mine.

Taking her was a betrayal. But keeping her means risking everything.

One look at Alexis Kensington, and I know she's worth the fight.

Will my past continue to keep me down or will I finally find the strength to pull myself up and stand...

Awesome story!

Ok so I thought the last one in the series was my favorite but now I’m sure it’s this one! There’s a few sloppy edits in the beginning and then 1 in the end but otherwise it was such a perfect and wonderful story. Definitely my favorite story line of all the series. I’m only sad it was the last one. I wish I could read about the amazing Sunder boys and their perfect family forever!! Very heart warming series especially this one!! Great job as always A L Jackson, and my two top favorite narrators, Zachary Webber and Andi Arndt!!

No Fear just Life!!

AL Jackson has such a gift. She summed up this whole series so beautifully. I could not stop once I got started. Zee is so in need of love and forgiveness mostly from himself. I loved him and Alexa. No fear just life. What an awesome motto. Zachary weber is brilliant and Andi Arndt is the queen. of romance. their talent is tremendous and they brought these characters to life. I don’t think I’ll ever forget the story. If you haven’t listened to the entire bleeding star series you’re missing out on a wonderful family.

Final book Bleeding Stars Series

Ms Jackson covers everything you could want in her writing. You feel the success, the pain and regrets, the forgiveness and leaves you emotionally feeling like all the feels are your personally. Everything I look for in a book/series. I have listened and read this series multiple times and will again in the future.

JUST BEAUTIFUL

What a sweet love story. I just finished the last book in the series. To show u how good they are I finished the whole series in 1 week. I couldn’t break away. Sure in the first 3 books the author over did it with words but all of the books had an intensity that blew my fucking mind. You won’t be disappointed. A nervous wreck yes but never disappointed Lmao. Zach Webber is my new crush along side Sebastian York and Andi Arndt she’s the freaking best hands down. Enjoy! But start at the beginning please!

Stand

What an end to this wonderful, beautiful, brilliant series.
Amy, you did an amazing job writing the stories about the men of Sunder and their strong women.

Zee was always the quiet one. Yes we met him in every previous book, but didn't know much about him.
So it was time that he becomes the star :)
His and Alexis story is like the others before: just amazing.

The whole series is just addictive!

And as always: Zachary and Andi nailed it with their narration.

What an ending!

Heart wrenching, happy, hot..there are just too many adjectives that can be used to describe this culmination of the Bleeding Stars series. Here I thought Lyrik was my favorite, but he is nothing compared to this hero that AL Jackson has created. Zee is the outsider, the one that has taken the place of his brother after Mark overdosed. He has so many secrets, it's almost impossible to keep track of who he really is. But deep down, this tortured man is the most beautiful of the Sunder men. Alexis meets Zee under the most horrible circumstances, and immediately we see the true man that he is. And the instant connection that these to have is permanent. But will it be enough to get them through? So much has happened since the death of Mark, and so much guilt is carried by Zee. I couldn't imagine how it was going to all play out. Jackson has skillfully written a heart rendering story, with feelings of elation, sadness and of course off the charts heat and chemistry. She also brings in all the characters from the series in this book, bringing us back in the fold of this tight knit family and giving us the most incredible of endings. While it's a little sad to have it end, this series has been one of the most satisfying that I have listened to.

With the narration by Andi Arndt and Zachary Webber, it was magnificently brought to life and brought all the emotional turmoil and happiness right to my heart.
