I suppose it could be read as such but you’d miss the brilliance of the back story. But then it picked up and the author, yet again, managed to wow me.Īll In is not a standalone story. The first two or three chapters I was still battling with myself on whether to put the book down. But I wasn’t sure I wanted to see it happen.

Of course in real life a 20 something year old girl will find love again after such loss. Particularly with books that end the way Full Tilt did. Which is why I hardly ever read extended epilogues or stories written ‘years after’ the original book ended. Book #1 was such a masterpiece I felt that anything more would ruin the story for me. Once a book ends, I don’t spend time thinking ‘ah and they’ll get children and grandchildren…’ no. Book II, All In is now available.I wasn’t sure I wanted to read this book. Full Tilt, a contemporary romance, is Book I in the Full Tilt Duet. To live life with all its beauty, and all its pain, and in the end to be able to smile through tears and know you wouldn’t have changed a thing. Full Tilt is a story about what it means to love with your whole heart, to sacrifice, to experience terrible grief and soaring joy.

Something deep and pure and life-changing…something as fragile as glass, that they both know will shatter in the end no matter how hard they try to hold on to it. But neither of them expected the deep connection they felt, or how that connection could grow so fast from friendship into something more. He lets her crash with him for a few days to dry out and get her head on straight. Jonah sees that Kacey is on a path to self-destruction. His plans include seeing the opening of his glass installation at a prestigious art gallery…they do not include falling in love with a wild, tempestuous rock musician who wound up passed out on his couch.

He knows his situation is hopeless, and he's vowed to make the most of the handful of months he has left to him. She wakes up with the hangover from hell and no memory of the night before, or how she ended up on her limo driver’s couch. A wrecked concert in Las Vegas threatens to ruin her career entirely. But she is torn between wanting to be a serious musician, and the demons that lure her down the glittering, but alcohol-soaked path of rock stardom. And now, as lead guitarist for a hot up-and-coming band, she is poised at the brink of fame and fortune. "I would love you forever if I only had the chance." Kacey Dawson has always lived life on the edge-impulsively, sometimes recklessly.
