Keeping You Away by Kennedy Fox - Release Blast with Reviews






I never planned on returning to Alabama, but circumstances brought me here after years of being gone. Though Lawton Ridge is my hometown, I was hesitant to go back because of her —my sister’s best friend. The last time we were together, she was eighteen, and I was a broken soldier transitioning to civilian life.

Gemma wrote to me while I was overseas and we developed a bond I hadn’t anticipated. I crushed her heart the day I left, something I’ve never forgotten. But now that her dad is my new boss, life just got way more complicated.

Too sweet, too innocent, too good for a guy like me—I should walk away again.

After serving five years in prison for something I didn’t do, I trust no one, but Gemma gradually breaks down my walls and exposes the pain I’ve hidden underneath. For her own sake, I should keep my distance, but it’s nearly impossible when I hear her sweet humming while I work and she slowly draws me back in. It’s a battle I didn’t train for, and one I’ll lose if I don’t keep my restraint—especially since she’s engaged to another man.

Keeping You Away is a slow-burn, angsty romance wrapped up in an intense love story. It’s book 1 in the Tyler & Gemma duet & must be read first.

Since first meeting Tyler in Liam and Maddie's duet, I couldn't wait to get his story and I didn't waste any time devouring it in one afternoon.
They say 'you can never go home again' and Tyler is realizing that in spades. When he moves back to Lawton Ridge to start over he finds out that as much as things stayed the same in the small town, so much has changed. Now that he's home, he's second-guessing what could have been, making up for lost time with his sister and trying to leave the past behind him.
It shouldn't be so difficult to be in the same space as her best friend's brother, especially since Gemma is engaged to be married, but it's just not that easy. It's true that you never forget your first...well, everything no matter how long it's been or what has happened since the last time you saw each other. But there's so much unfinished business between them...
Apprehension, frustration and an attraction that is off the charts adds to the unease you can literally feel between the pages. So many twists and turns, what if and OMG moments (that ending!), I can't wait to get my hands on the conclusion.






I have read quite a few books by this writing duo and every single book has been quite the read.
Tyler and Gemma’s story has a whole lot going on. From what is yet to happen and to also actions from the past.
Even if this was my first ever romance novel, I would easily know that these two were always destined to be together. Sparks flew between the pair every time they were in the same room. I just wanted them to get together already - but unfortunately Gemma is not a free woman.
This is the first book in this duo, so I knew that there would be a cliffhanger but never could I imagine what I have just read!!
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.
