Jayden King harbors secrets beneath his outward playboy demeanor. The women who warm his bed lay claim to nothing—you can’t lay claim to someone who doesn’t have a heart. His wit and charm are exquisite means of deflection and distraction from the turmoil roaring inside him. He’s hidden in plain sight, a mask of humor keeping the sadness at bay. The only real reflections of his soul are in the artwork he creates, pieces of him muraled on the skin of others. If tattoo artists could have a calling card, the etch of pain and suffering in each design would be his. Because when the lights go out and the women he’s satisfied have gone home, he’s alone with every fear he refuses to face.
After suffering from a brutal attack at the hands of her roommate’s stalker, Peyton is forced to live with the object of her affection. Without intention, she breathes love into his starved heart, and although the mere thought of that terrifies him, Jayden would burn the city down to keep her safe, causalities be damned.
Some people you have. Some people you hold.
She can have him. She can hold him. But can she keep King? Or is it impossible for Callaghan to keep something that was never really hers to begin with?

Anne Jolin is
one of those very few authors whose books I will one-click without any kind of
hesitation. The Rock Falls series keeps getting better and BETTER and I
absolutely adore the group of characters that bring these books to life. The
girls are witty, smartass-y, strong, and ladies I would totally be friends
with. As for the guys? OH MAN - THE GUYS.
Total hotties and yummy alpha males! I’m telling you, this series is a MUST
READ.
Now, while all
the books in this series can be read as standalone novels, I highly recommend
you read them in order. You will have a better understanding of everything that’s
happened up until this 4th installment and, quite frankly, why the
heck not? They are truly great books and ones I easily recommend to anyone that
loves great romantic suspense novels!
“…you’ve breathed love back into my
soul.”
Jayden. Oh,
Jayden. What a HUNK of a man!!! He was loving, caring, sexy, alpha…aaand had tattoos! He could not get any
better. Really.
Jayden was
hurting inside and kept everyone at arm’s length – especially women. His guilt prevented
him from opening his heart. He had fought long and hard his attraction to
Peyton but now, there was nothing he could do. He was losing that battle hard
and fast.
Peyton had
lived a life in which she kept pretty much to herself because of what she’d already been through. Suffice it to say, she
was one strong chick! I really did like her character a lot.
Well anyway, little
did she ever imagine, the guy she secretly had a massive crush on, felt the
same way about her. Certain circumstances
brought Jayden and Peyton under the same roof. - cue swooning - The way
Jayden protected Peyton, how he took care of her, had me completely enamored.
It wasn’t easy for either of them living together, but boy oh boy, things surely got interesting…and
steamy.
Once Jayden
and Peyton opened up to each other, once they accepted what they meant to each other, their love – their connection – was unbreakable. They
were passionate and pure and OMG – I was in love with how much they were in love.
There are a
lot of events that occur during this book that kept me highly intrigued and
fully entertained. I wanted nothing more than to read Jayde and Peyton’s story and
find out what would happen next. I wanted them to get their HEA so badly – they
both deserved it. They really, truly did. They both are the type of characters
you really can’t help but root for since the very first page.
Keeping King
was a fantastic addition to an already phenomenal series! I cannot wait to read
the next book! I mean….THAT ENDING! OMG! I need
Jackson’s story! Really. I do. FIVE STARS! Yet again, Anne Jolin did an
amazing job!
“I’m keeping you, Jayden King.”

Series: Rock Falls Series, Book 3
~ SYNOPSIS ~
Beth Rhodes has always had a game plan. Go to college. Get the perfect job. Get the perfect guy. Get the happily ever after she's always wanted. It is just her luck that everything falls into its precise place in her life. At least it seems that way until her blueprints go up in smoke. She loses the job she loves and her price charming is turning out to be the villain of her fairytale instead. With failures and mistakes piling up on her doorstep, she knows something has to give—or she could very well end up paying for those mistakes with her life.
Braxton Bennett is lethal, both in the courtroom and in the ring. Two sides of him constantly wage war against one another, and to keep the internal bloodshed at bay, he allows himself to indulge in his violent vice. Suit by day and brawler by night aren’t easy dual lives to manage for a man of his status. The only way to do so is by following a strict set of rules—rules he won’t break for anyone. But what if he already has?
On a summer night in the depths of the city, a chance encounter will turn both of their perfectly constructed worlds upside down.
Will they battle together against all odds to break Bennett’s rules? Or will Rhodes tap out to save herself before the fight is over?
I’m twenty four years old. I was born and raised in Ladner, a small farm town just outside of Vancouver, Canada. I grew up riding horses, shooting guns and riding in trucks. I’ve been married to my handsome redneck husband for a year and we are parents to our chocolate fur baby, Bear. No kiddo’s yet! I am completely and utterly obsessed with country music, you will constantly find me stalking iTunes. If you don’t find me on iTunes, you’ll find me on Netflix because I am a self proclaimed movie junkie. Yes, that means that I quote them constantly in daily conversation and my characters do too! You couldn’t keep me away from a good action movie if you tried. I’m also a planning nut. I love to plan parties, events, trips – you name it! I don’t know if that’s considered a real hobby, but it is for me.
We were fortunate enough to travel a lot as a family growing up, and I think that helped spark my love of reading. I’m half Viking, my mom is Danish, and her entire side of the family still lives in Denmark. We’d visit them almost once a year, every year and it’s a nine hour flight. That’s a lot of uninterrupted time to read (or in my parent’s case, entertain four children – Yikes!). Somewhere along the way my love of reading, became a love of writing. I wrote short stories when I was younger, and although I majored in Business Management at college, I took as many English electives I could get my hands on.
During the day I work at my family construction company wearing a variety of different hats and at night, I write! I had never thought about writing books before, but after a few suggestions that I should try, I decided to give it a go. I loved it instantly! Having always been a creative person, it felt amazing to harness all that energy and use it to tell a story. Now, quite frankly it’s all I can think about, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m grateful to have developed my love of reading into a passion for writing. You’ll be seeing many more books from me in the future!
