Taut by J.A. Huss



Synopsis
Ford Aston is known for many things. Being an emotionless, messed up bastard, a freakishly smart social outcast, and a cold, domineering master who keeps “pets” instead of girlfriends.
And after Rook broke his heart, he plans to keep it that way.
Ashleigh is known for nothing, and that’s exactly what she’s got going for her. She’s broke, stranded in the mountains with a three month old baby, and Ford Aston is screwing with her head.
Big. Time.
And she plans to mess with his right back.
It’s a coy game at first, filled with flirting, and innuendo–but Ford soon realizes something is not quite right with Ashleigh. In fact, something is seriously, seriously wrong and the closer they get to their final destination, the closer Ford gets to the truth.
One night of devastation, self-loathing, and emptiness turns into the best thing that ever happened to Ford Aston. But one day of in-your-face reality threatens Ashleigh’s whole existence.

My Review
I love Ford. How could you not?
Ford is running from a broken heart.
Ashleigh is doing the same, only running all over hell an half of Georgia with no money and a crappy car that breaks down leaving her and her 3 month old baby stranded in a Denver snowstorm, attempting to sleep in her car.
Ford offers Ashleigh the other bed in his hotel room, which is so not his typical behavior, he’s all about Ford.
Okay these two are not just broken people, they are shattered. Their lives are different, but the reasons for their behavior are similar.
I love that Ford is sort of vulnerable in this one, though you don’t see much of it! He’s still Effing Ford <3
After a week together, him having Ashleigh how he wants her, he realizes there just may be more to life than pets and Rook.
I so want to tell you how this ends but I hate reviews with spoilers!!

Taut kicks ass, there’s so much to this book, you learn everything about these characters, the detail draws you in and you cannot put this book down, everything is so well written and in depth you cannot keep yourself from being drawn in, it’s almost as if your watching a movie, you can literally see everything that your reading, yes, it’s that good. If I hadn't literally passed out last night I would have finished this book around 3 am.
