Salvation by Robin Covington- Release & Review Blitz



She’s decided to end it all. He doesn’t know where to begin. What they were and who they might become doesn’t matter as much as who they are together. Fans of Elle Kennedy’s The Deal or Cambria Hebert’s #Player, will devour the sexy and intense addition to the Nashville Nights series by Bestselling Author Robin Covington.



SALVATION

Synopsis: Letting go never felt so good.
Carlisle Queen is dying and no one knows it.
Burying the pain of losing her friends and her professional swimming career in a terrorist attack, America’s former sweetheart dulls her pain with drugs, pills and parties. The bomb left her with more than nightmares; shrapnel is lodged in her back and inching closer to her spinal cord. When the doctors tell her paralysis is inevitable, she decides to take her own life rather than face a lifetime in a wheelchair.

Mateo Butler isn’t anyone’s hero.  

Reeling from the death of his little sister and his own cowardice, he spends his nights partying and his days ignoring the medical school acceptance letters and his parents’ concerned phone calls. Just a couple of months from graduation, he’s facing a future filled with shame and regret. The last thing he needs is to meet the woman who compels him to be a better man.

Can they save each other?

When Carlisle and Mateo meet, the chemistry between them is combustible. They play, party and hide their true selves until one night turns their lust into something more…something real. As secrets are revealed and walls collapse, what they were and what they might become doesn’t matter as much as who they are together. When the choice comes down to life or death, can love be their salvation?
See where it all began with book 1 of the Nashville Nights series, Temptation.

My Review:

Salvation (Nashville Nights, #2)Salvation by Robin Covington
My rating: 3.5 of 5 stars

Carlisle was a gold medal winning olympic swimmer whose life was changed by a bombing that killed her lover and injured her in a way that changed her life. She doesn't date or get close to anyone because she knows something that she knows would ruin any relationship. Mateo has been attracted to Carlisle since she first walked into the class where he was the TA. He isn't relationship guy either, but when Carlisle makes it clear that she is ready to be his for a night he isn't going to pass that up for anything. Their chemistry is explosive and quickly both find themselves in a much more difficult situation than they intended.

This book is the second in the series, but could easily be read as a stand-alone. Carlisle is an interesting character and it was difficult to watch her face so many difficult questions and choices. She is strong, straight-forward, and someone I wanted to see find some happiness. Mateo is a very likable guy as well, and the chemistry between him and Carlisle is very hot. Watching them both struggle so hard with their own past traumas and current life situations was really difficult at time and very emotional. I was really hoping that both of them would find a way to be happy in their lives and relationships. One of the neat things about this book is that it is a pretty short read, but there is no shortage of character development. I noticed the same thing with the first book in this series, and that has made this author someone I will continue to seek out in the future.
