Beloved (Belonging #1) by Corinne Michaels

Synopsis

Not enough.

Catherine Pope has never been enough. 
She repeatedly let’s men in—only to be left broken.

Then Catherine met Jackson Cole.

Jackson makes her feel alive, desirable, and consumes her with a fierceness she’s never known. 
But Jackson struggles with his own past. His training as a Navy SEAL never prepared him for the battle to win her heart. He’s different, honorable, and worth the chance…but he must prove it.

If she gives him what’s left of her heart—will he protect it? Will she get the one thing that has always evaded her – to finally be someone’s beloved?

4 Jackson Stars


Catherine has know pain and heartache from an early age. A betrayal that transcended time and built her insecurities into tumultuous relationships that all ended badly. Catherine has always attempted to live a safe life and simply settle. When she catches her fiance cheating with a friend, that becomes Catherine's last straw. She goes through all the emotional turmoil along with the guilt and feeling of betrayal that's so deep seated within her, that Catherine shuts down. Eventually, Catherine pushes through all the pain and gets back to her everyday life. As painful as it is, Catherine focuses and strives for excellence with her job. Catherine encounters her newest client, Jackson Cole, CEO of Raven Cosmetics.

"He's just a man, a very sexy and fuckable man, but still - he's my client."

When Catherine and Jackson meet, there is an immediate sizzling and static attraction. 


Jackson Cole is a hunky, ex-navy enigma. A man carrying around a painful past and suffering from deep seated guilt, that has him warring with his mind and emotions. Meeting Catherine gives his heart a jolt. One that has been dormant for so long. Taking a chance at love again. Jackson goes all out with Catherine. Yet, never fully opening himself up to her and giving her and them the emotional intimacy that they both crave.



I loved the back and forth banter between Catherine and Jackson. It was such giddy excitement seeing them converse and then feeling the intensity of their emotions. Ahhhhhh!! it just kept me on edge and lustful myself.
