[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.

Excerpt

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.

Review

4 stars
We begin with Mila's parents placing her with another family knowing they won't be around to raise her and Kai wanting to protect her from the first time they met.
Fast forward to adults. Mila is in trouble and the only way Kai can protect her is to marry her. They marry in name only.
Atleast that's their intention until they both begin to see each other in a different light. 

"So we try to make this into a real relationship."
"Every relationship starts with attraction. You're attracted to me, and I'm attracted to you."

Most of the book is the back and forth of Mila and Kai trying to decide how they feel about each other, to take the next step in their relationship.
Most of the book is told in Mila's POV. I felt like I missed out on something not seeing as much of Kai's POV and believe more from him would have been beneficial to the story and to the reader. I think I personally could connect more with him had we seen more of his side. 
I feel that there were aspects of both Kai and Mila's life that were left out but would have made the story better had we read about them.

I loved Assumption, Obligation wasn't as good for me. I will read the next book just because I loved book one and am sure we'll see an improvement in the next installment.

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.
