Series: True Heroes, Book 2
When a perfect new love is shattered, two hearts will do anything to pick up the pieces. In this sizzling novel from the bestselling author of Stone Walls, irresistible heat leads to sensual thrills—and a secret that changes everything.
Two years ago, Nick Farley was undercover as a bartender in Chicago. The tough-as-steel FBI agent was working all the angles to build a case against a local crime syndicate, but even his intense focus was no match for the sight of Angela Cavello’s plump pink lips pulling on her drink. All Nick got was one night—the longest, hottest, sweetest night of his life. It could have been the beginning of something real. Instead, she walked away—and Nick watched her go.
Angela has made some mistakes in her life, but Nick was never one of them. Nor was the baby boy he doesn’t know about. But Angela has been running from a stalker for so long that she’s forgotten how to feel safe. So when Nick suddenly reappears in her life, Angela faces a moment of truth. She wants to trust him and reveal her secrets—her life and the life of their son may depend on it—but first she needs to know that Nick can handle her past, and promise the one thing she most craves: a future together.

I love Nick!
Glass Ceilings is book 2 in the True Heroes series but you don’t need to have read the first book to enjoy this one. While Nick was introduced in Stone Walls, Glass Ceilings stands alone with no problem.This story is hot in places but it is also very touching and tender in others. Nick and Angela meet while he is working undercover. Angela’s cousin, Eve and Nick’s friend Jase, try to get her to use Nick to knock an item off of her bucket list: have a one-night stand. Nick is more than willing knowing that one night is all it can be since he will be leaving Chicago soon.
After an explosive New Year’s Eve kiss Angela goes home alone leaving Nick behind. He can’t get Angela out of his mind so he goes to her place even though it’s 4 a.m. Angela doesn’t want to start anything with him because she, too, is leaving Chicago soon. When they find out they are both heading to New York they decide to explore their relationship a bit more.
The story is told in first person POV and divided into 3 parts. In the first part most chapters are told by Nick; later on they alternate a bit more between Nick and Angela.
I love a great second chance love story and this one has just the right amount of angst for me. Part 1 is the set-up of their relationship. Part 2 jumps ahead 2 years when they meet again and Part 3 begins the second chance. There is also a nice secondary story going on between Eve and Jase.
Glass Ceilings kept me engrossed and awake during a long red-eye flight from LA the east coast. While I paid dearly for not getting any sleep during the flight I wasn’t one bit sorry!
