~Excerpt~
Knox reaches over and pushes the braid that’s lying over my
shoulder to my back and leans over to kiss my exposed shoulder. My eyes close
and I want to wrap our time up here in a jar and carry it with me everywhere I
go. Everything in this moment is perfect. I’m happy and content which hasn’t
happened in some time. I’m always so guarded around everyone except Summer. The
reason behind my wing tattoos is because when I finally decided to get out from
under Mom and Dad I wanted to find my wings and be my own person. I wanted to
grow, change and find my way in life.
“Jas,” Knox says so low it was barely auditable.
I open my eyes to the sound of his voice only to feel a tickle
on my right shoulder. I don’t move an inch because I know what it is. Out of
the corner of my eye I can see a beautiful black butterfly with four spots,
white and then blending into purple, on each side of the wings. The end of the
wings are all jagged but the intensity of the colors draw away from them.
Knox is able to slip away as the butterfly just sits perched on
my shoulder, lightly fluttering her wings. I hear the sound of Knox’s camera
snapping pictures as he walks around capturing different angles. I turn my head
inch by inch so I can get a better look at the beauty sitting on my shoulder.
A lady who’s wearing a uniform with a patch that shows that she
works here comes over to my other side and wipes something cool on the top of
my left hand which is resting on my thigh. When she’s finishes she simply walks
away. What the hell was that about?
Minutes later the butterfly sitting on my shoulder flies away
and another tiny white butterfly lands on the top of my right hand in the exact
spot that the employee rubbed whatever it was on my skin.
Knox takes his seat beside me again. “It’s sugar water. The
butterflies love it.” He nods to the sign in front of the waterfall. “I read it
on that.” Knox adds after I give him a look of disbelief that he would know
such a fact.
I lift my hand in the air and the butterfly takes off to a
nearby flower. I place my hand on Knox’s leg and give it a little squeeze.
“Thank you for bringing me here.”
He places his large hand on top of mine, “You’re welcome,
Beautiful. I’m glad you like it.”

~Review~
So I have to start off this review with saying that this
is the first book that I’ve read that was written by Megan Smith and I must say
she has won my heart as a lifelong fan. I love a book that I can visualize
every single scene and Megan gave me that when I was reading “Finding Us.” She gave
me a wonderful heroine, Jasmine and a delicious leading alpha male character,
Knox. This book will take you on a journey of two different individuals, one
seeking revenge and the other trying to find themselves, but in the end they
end up “finding us” instead of finding "me", oh the irony lol.
I loved Knox, he was all alpha male, he oozed sex
appeal, and he was just pure sex on sticks. I must say that I have a crush on
Jasmine, from her tattoos, to her piercings. Jasmine tried her best to stay
away from Knox, but who could when he’s just so him. Then we have the sub
characters, who I loved very much as well. First we have Jeremy, who just seems
like this hard ass but then we get to see his soft side and fall right in love
with him. Then we have Cade, both him and Jeremy made me laugh so damn much, my
sons came in my room to find out what I was watching on TV. Then we have the
sex scenes, they were the right amount of hot, even the sexual tension was hot
as you know what, I didn’t even need the sex scenes to be that detailed. Then
we have the drama, there were secrets that were unfold, I wasn’t even anticipating
the big reveal and damn if I didn’t love it.
Overall this was a fantastic book written by a
wonderful, talented, well rounded author. Hurry up and give us Jeremy’s story
Megan.
