This romantic thriller is the second novel in the For The Love Of A Good WomanSeries. It can be read as a stand-alone, but is better understood when read in order.ColeI was a marine scout sniper for years, but then I came home and could barely function. PTSD was crippling me. It took a friend hauling me out of bed every day to bring me back to the light. I wasn’t living, but at least I wasn’t … living, but at least I wasn’t spending all my days in bed. Then she came stumbling out of the woods, broken, barely alive. I needed to help her. I felt a pull to her that I hadn’t felt for anyone else. And the more information I got about her, the more I knew I couldn’t let her go. I’d do anything to keep her safe.
Can two broken souls heal each other?
Alex
I thought the nightmare was over. Then I woke up in a cellar, chained to a wall. He came to me every couple of days just to torture me. If I didn’t find a way out of there, I’d die, just like my parents did. But I refused to die in that cellar, cold and alone. I found my way out, now I just had to run. But I knew I’d never be able to outrun him. He’d find me again. Only one man could save me now.more
This story was an emotional roller-coaster from beginning to end. I felt my heart break and heal only for the cycle to be repeated until we reach the end and I was crying happy tears for Cole and his Alex’s happy ending
Their journey was not an easy one. There were many obstacles they both, separate and together had to face and accept and start moving forward… Cole was sometimes a jerk but somehow I understood it because he loved Alex so much but I do admit that sometimes the decisions made by him were not the correct ones, luckily he was able to rectify them and realize his mistakes.
Now, Alex, phew, what can I say about this girl other that she was a strong person, a very strong survivor… Won’t give out spoilers because what’s the fun in that!?
So, if you guys want to know more, then go ahead and check out the second book from this series But, what I can tell you is that Cole and Alex do get their happy ending
Wow! This was such an intense, suspenseful story with all the feels. I devoured this book from beginning to end and what a page turner it was. My heart broke for what Alex has been through and how resilient she was. She really showed what a survivor she is, not once but several times. I loved how protective Cole was of her and how he always made sure to take care of her even though he was struggling with his own demons and PTSD. These two really deserved to be happy but their road was not an easy one, it was fraught with one obstacle after another. I rooted for Cole and Alex to be together and I loved following their journey with the help of family and friends. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in this series.
When Cole finds Alex she’d just escaped a killer. Although she’s safe with Cole the killer is still looking for.
Both Alex and Cole suffer from PTSD, Alex from his time in the military although it’s slightly better it’s still there. While Alex saw more than any child should.
They have to worry about keeping Alex safe until the killer is found, while Alex lives in fear she’s going to be taken again.
They have their ups and downs both struggling with their past and PTSD, they have to learn that they want happiness instead of running from it. While Cole realises that he wants to keep Alex in his life and that perhaps they can heal together.
Cole is the second book in the For The Love Of A Good Woman series and is a great romantic thriller. The characters of Cole and Alex are strong and have amazing chemistry together. The storyline is filled with danger, suspense, action, intrigue, and steamy romance.

(Slight Spoilers) This is the story for Alex and Cole. Alex survived a tragedy when her parents were killed. She then went on the run living off the grid as much as possible. She gets captured again, and runs into Cole when she escapes. Cole has his own issues with PTSD, but does his best to protect Alex. There is a HEA, laughs, thrills and some heat.

Cole and Alex are both haunted by their past but unfortunately for Alex her past is back and she may not make it out alive and she needs all the strength and determination to do it along with the support a complete stranger Cole can provide. There are loads of emotions to go through while reading this not just for Alex for which your heart breaks into a million pieces but also for everything Cole has and had gone through, this is why they make a great match. This is a page turner where you are trying to work out who is behind not only Alex’s attack but potentially others and if both Cole and Alex are strong enough to deal with all that’s thrown at them and boy is their a lot!!!

Alex watched her parents being murdered. Now, she’s been kidnapped by their murderer. As she escapes, running out of the woods, Cole finds her. He’s suffering from PTSD, a “gift” from his time as a Marine. He just wants to keep her safe. In the prior book, Jack and Harper’s story was light and comedic. This one, not so much. It’s a dark story, action-packed with on-the-edge-of-my-seat suspense, and yet there’s a tender romance evolving. I read most of the Reed Security series, but it’s nice to take a look at some of the earlier works by this author.

Thriller Romance
Cole is the second book in the For The Love Of A Good Woman series and is the story of two people who are both broken and damaged on the inside and how they were brought together. If you are a fan of the A Reed Security series, and if you aren’t then you should be, then you may remember both Alex and Cole. I could write paragraphs about this book but I don’t want to give to much away. Let’s just say that there is a lot of mystery, suspense, action, intrigue, romance and more.
This is another interesting and nail-biting story by Giulia Lagomarsino. It is nicely written with an engrossing story-line and amazing characters who have a lot of depth.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
For The Love of a Good Women series by Giulia Lagomarsino has been an interesting transition from the Reed Security series her reader loved so much. And I know it’s nor fair to compare “children”, but unfortunately I am. Although I liked Cole and Alex’s story so much better than Jack and Harper’s, there was still something missing for me. Alex has lived through hell, not just once but twice in her young life. I loved Alex, her resilience, strength, need to be independent while overcoming unbelievable terror. I loved Cole for the first 3/4 of the book. Again a strong, determined, protective man who sees what he wants and is determined to protect and love her. The whole drama of it all became way too much for me. It was like a never-ending story of psychopaths. I’m looking forward to Logan’s story, fingers crossed.

Alex and Cole have a sort of codependency romance. Both have been traumatized and suffer from PTSD. The story line was forever evolving. I was literally on the edge of my seat. I loved the characters and how they developed within the story. The story was well written, engaging, dramatic and intense.

It’s definitely nail biting thriller. Rollercoaster romance with high dose of suspense and drama. Did I mention hot and steamy.
This is the 2nd book in this series,it’s a standalone.
Cole and Alex , such a broken people. Life wasn’t treated them well. So many issues, so many obstacles. Will they overcome them? Will they move on and accept the new life ? It’s a long road to recovery
I highly recommend this talented authors

This was a fantastic book with amazing characters and a really emotional story line. The characters go through a lot of hurt and very difficult situations to finally reach their HEA. I loved this book and would recommend it to others!

Wow from page one you are riveted, but this author has a way pf drawing you in deeper with a few well placed words. Alex has just escaped a madman set on torture and death. Cole has been dealing with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, so adding a traumatized barely alive Alex to the mix you are in for heady story. Cole uses his skill to keep Alex safe but the budding relationship is the last thing and the best thing for either of them. Twists, turns and an emotional rollercoaster

Ex-military sniper Cole has left the military after suffering PTSD and has moved to the country that is where he finds Alex in the woods by his home running from a serial killer. Alex has suffered for years from the trauma of watching the same serial killer brutally kill her parents and trying to kill her by inflicting knifes wounds until his game is up and he finally kills them but she escaped only for him to find her years later. This is full of suspense and mystery that has kept me awake and on the edge of my seat with some twists that was unexpected. Love this author because everything I have read that she has written has been well written and unique in a way that is captivating.

Wow! What a heart-pounding story! It starts at a fast pace right from the beginning & doesn’t let up. Alex is the target of a sadistic serial killer, a remnant of her past. Cole was a sniper, and while his PTSD is slowly healing, being around Alex is both healing & painful—and dangerous. I really enjoyed the plot, with the ongoing danger & associated tension. The characters have been through a lot, physically & psychologically. Lots of painfully dark events and twists kept me turning the pages. I hope we see more of Cole & Alex and how they’re healing in future stories.
I received a copy of this book. My honest opinion is voluntarily provided.
Cole had a rough time settling back into civilian life and got disability for his ptsd
Together with the furniture Cole designed and built with his father, and a move to a more remote house, Cole finds himself working and healing- and running when he needed more stress release
Alex lived through the machinations of horrible torture and watching her parents die
If the man imprisoned for killing her parents was still detained, who was hunting her now? Was the same man responsible for decades of kidnappings murders and torture, or is something more complex in play?
Tangled life , love and survival
