Lieutenant Alexander Colton and February Owens were high-school sweethearts. Everyone in their small town knew from the moment they met they were meant for each other. But something happened, and Feb broke Colt's heart; then she turned wild, and tragedy struck. Colt meted out revenge against the man who brought Feb low, but even though Colt risked it all for her, Feb turned her back on him and left town.
Fifteen years later Feb comes back to help run the family bar. But there's so much water under the bridge separating her and Colt, everyone knows they'll never get back together - until someone starts hacking up people in Feb's life. Colt is still Colt, and Feb is still Feb, so the town watches as Colt goes all out to find the murderer while trying to keep Feb safe. As the bodies pile up, the feds move in, and a twisting, turning story unravels, exposing a very sick man who has claimed numerous victims. Along the way Feb and Colt battle their enduring attraction and the beautiful but lost history that weaves them together.

Alec (Colt) & February (Feb's) book. I read the Colorado Mountain Series first - love, love, loved it. Now I've read two of the Burg Series. "At Peace" which was excellent. This book "For You" was good, just not my favorite so far. Maybe because of the Axe Murderer??? (Lol... I'm really not a fan of Axe Murderers) I'm not sure why, but for me this didn't flow like the other books. I'm not saying it was bad, (frankly, I don't think KA can write a bad book) but parts of it - were just not as good as the others I've read. Maybe the banter wasn't as good? Perhaps I'm being too critical? (But I must say) This book took me longer to read than the others, because I kept putting it down - which is unusual for me. (Granted, perhaps my life got in the way - but I didn't stay up half the night trying to finish it either). As always, you have the usual depth of characters (which I love), there's laughter, love, tears, sex, and the HEA. So I'm rating this four stars.I read many of the other reviews, and some said *****possible spoiler ***** they didn't like Reece and Feb's past "love" affair/relationship - which was a tiny blip (a few pages) in this book. (I loved Reece's story in "At Peace") but I thought their past was - two lost souls hooking up - and for a time, caring deeply about each other, but never taking it any further, no promises made or broken. They still have feelings for each other, but that's true for all of us, when a good relationship ends, you still care about the other person. Anyway, they each eventually find their true soul mates and find the happiness they deserve.
I've become addicted to KA's books. I always get taken away and become immersed in her stories, the characters come alive, and they seem like really good friends. I'm looking forward to reading all of her books. Got to go now...on to my next read... "Hold On" Cher & "Merry" Garrett's story.

For You (Audible Audio Edition) Kristen Ashley Liz Thompson Audible Studios Books Reviews
My search for the perfect Kristen Ashley book continues. I keep reading her books and liking them, some of them I like a lot, but I’m not having the same reaction that other people have. I just want to have that over-the-top “this is one of my top, top favorite books” reaction. But she has a lot of books, so at this point, I’m not ready to drop her yet. I decided to try The Burg series because many people have told me that some of her best books are in this series, so I was excited to pick up For You.
I liked this book. I could’ve loved it, but some issues prevented me from loving it. I’ll go over those later.
For You is a second-chance romance that features a couple that had a devastating fall out. Feb and Colt lived in the same town, and have carried on with their lives and relationships with limited interactions, but they’d always had eyes on each other. Feb and Colt had some amazing chemistry. In the beginning it stemmed from their animosity towards each other (which was hot) and then later the heat was the result of a broken couple melding together (which was also hot). Have I said before that I love a second-chance romance?
This novel is a romantic suspense and I enjoyed the suspenseful element in this book – I loved that at times it even felt creepy. The sinister element enhanced the romance as Feb and Colt leaned on each other, and had to let go of past hurts in order to protect each other. I loved watching them push through all their resentment and just lay it all out there. I live for those raw and vulnerable moments.
Funnily, my first reaction to this book was that I thought someone else had written it. I’d gotten used to the alpha males, the choppy sentences, the sassy females that are somewhat…stupid. Too mean? *Shrugs* Well, with her books I almost always like the hero more than I like the heroine but I really loved getting to know Feb. I liked that she was kind of hard, but she was still soft. Of course, the KA signature touches were there the humor and heart, and for sure Colt was a man I’d love to have in my bed. The thing I liked the most though was that, even with some angst and communication drama, the couple connected early on and had to face everything together.
For You was thrilling and sweet, and there were plenty of memorable moments that I’d love to revisit, but I do believe there was a lot of extra stuff that could’ve been cut. I enjoy seeing the cute everyday scenes as much as the next person, but I don’t need to see every conversation had. For You was a positive experience and it’s a good book, although not my favorite KA. I’m still going to continue my search for that 5 star KA read though. Wish me luck!
You know why I fell for this book? Because the characters had mileage. And unlike a score of other books this one had some decent maturity about it.
The lead characters grew up together. They eventually became childhood sweethearts and were the small towns very own love story. It kinda made me a little queasy and a whole lotta envious learning about their life.
But that isn't why I've read, and reread this book multiple times.
I don't know how to write my review without revealing it all. That would destroy the whole experience. Rather I want you to imagine an innocent and pure love. Now imagine someone's jealousy savagely ripping it apart. It doesn't just destroy the lovers. It takes their friends, family and future lovers.
This is where you will find Alexander Colton and February Owens. But their 20yrs of separation isn't filled with doom and gloom. It was just a pale comparison of their could've, would've, should've.
When things start going wrong in the Burg it's at this point that they are forced to confront their feelings, their past and the town's dirty secrets. Gruesome murders, crazy ex's (as well as great ex lovers) and a bar full of nosy locals painted a fantastic journey. One where I prayed Colt & Feb could find the real them.
PS - Landslide by Fleetwood Mac is officially my go to song for Colt and Feb.
