After every book I finish of Kelly Elliot I feel as if its my favorite. I have to say this by far was my favorite book of Kelly. We had angst, love, family, passion, romance, heart break, and new characters. I couldn’t get enough of Tristen and Ryn's (Kathryn) story.  I devoured this book in one sitting I couldn't put it down.

 

Tristan is a man with a single minded mind. He is scared to allow his true feeling out and hides behind women and sex. I loved how devoted to his family he is and also how much he wanted to repair the damaged he caused Ryn.  He is a smart, caring and scared shitless of his secrets. At times I wanted to beat Tristan but he was a good person al around.  Ryn is smart, hardworking, independent and tuff as nails. Wanting to push Tristan away, Ryn uses  tactic all though fun have not been working. 

Through the first half of this book I was screaming at my kindle. I was a bit frustrated with Ryn and Tristan.  You were just not expected the surprise and drama that you were hit with in Undeniable love. Each page I turn there was something new and I just could wait to get to the next chapter. After so many emotion I couldn't stop smiling at the end of this book.

In Undeniable Love  we meet new characters and my favorite was Sierra. I could get enough of her, she was blunt and did care who was around. She told you how it was and I couldn't get enough of her. Dodge (Aaron) and Chris were new introduction and I loved them.

This book surpassed any thing I could have thought, your get a side of Tristan your not expecting. I love how Ryn and Tristan relationship, grew and I enjoyed learning Tristan secret. If you have never read Kelly Elliot before you can grab any of her book and fall in love, you will be so immersed in the story you will feel as if your sitting on a ranch next to her characters. Each page will bring you closer to the characters,. If you have read Kelly's book and haven't #oneclicked this. What are you doing? I recommend everyone read this book.

CHAPTER 1

Tristan

 

The sun shining in through the window caused me to let out a low grumble. I knew the moment I opened my eyes I’d feel the hangover. Yesterday was my younger brother Lark’s wedding to his spunky and beautiful new bride, Azurdee. I still couldn’t believe Azurdee had won over my brother and tamed his wild ways. For a while there I was pretty sure he was more against a committed relationship than I was. I heard my phone vibrate on the side table. Reaching over, I grabbed it.

Lark: Why the hell do you want to know about Dodge?

Sitting up, I let out a sigh as I ran my hand down my face. Last night I watched as Ryn said goodbye to my parents and walked out the door with this Dodge guy. A built blond haired, blued eyed asshole who had his arm wrapped around her waist and held her like she was his.

Motherfucker.

Me: Ryn mentioned him last night. He showed up and he is with her now. I remembered you mentioning a Dodge guy once when you and Azurdee were split up.

Lark: He manages Red 7. According to Azurdee, he is Ryns RFB.

RFB? Ryn had said that last night to Dodge. What the fuck is a RFB?

Lark: Before you ask it means Rebound Fuck Buddy.

My mouth dropped open as I stared at the text. “You’ve got to be shitting me,” I whispered.

Lark: Azurdee said Ryn is pretty much exclusive to the guy. They’re dating, but not really dating. Guess Dodge is into Ryn and she doesn’t feel the same.

Interesting.

Me: Thanks, Bro. I think I’m going to be staying another week … or two. I’ve got the time.

Lark: Ah shit. Don’t start any trouble down there. Have fun, Tristan.

Me: I’m gonna try not to. Later.

Setting the phone on the bed, I headed into the bathroom. I took one look at myself in the mirror and frowned. I looked like shit. Tired and hung-over was not going to work if I wanted to try and run into Ryn today.

Glancing back into the bedroom, I looked at the clock on the side table. Seven on the dot. Ryn would be heading out for a run any time now if I knew her.

I quickly splashed water on my face, brushed my teeth and changed into a pair of jogging shorts, a white T-shirt, and running shoes. One quick look at myself in the mirror and I was headed down to the beach.

Glancing up and down the beach I was almost positive Ryn would run this way. Looking toward the beach house she was renting for the next two weeks I smiled when I saw her heading down the steps to the beach. She did a few funky ass yoga moves and then took off running, in the opposite direction of me.

Shit.

I pushed my ear buds in and started running. My full on run was quickly catching up to Ryn’s jog. I smiled as I took a good look at her ass. She had the nicest ass of any girl I ever dated. I loved Ryn’s body. She had curves and wasn’t afraid to eat me under the table when it came to a large buffalo chicken pizza from Double Dave’s. Liberty, my ex-girlfriend, was boney as hell and I swear the only thing she ate was carrots and cheese sticks.

Ryn’s long wavy brown hair was pulled back into a sloppy ponytail. Ryn never cared too much about being prim and proper. She could dress up and look like a million bucks easy, but she only did it when she had to. Otherwise she was in her favorite pair of comfy pants, as she called them, and a T-shirt.

Running by Ryn, I passed her up and acted like I didn’t know who she was. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw her glance up at me. I kept running at my speed. She had headphones on as well, the only difference was I was positive she had music coming out of hers and I didn’t. I needed to be able to hear her call out my name. If she called out my name.

I could feel her eyes on my back. I slowed down just a notch so she could catch up to me. “Tristan?” I heard her call out. Acting as if I couldn’t hear her, I kept on running.

“Tristan!”

Smiling, I kept on running. This was turning out to be a successful run. My plan to run into Ryn on accident while we were both here was starting out with a bang. Inhaling a deep breath of crisp ocean air, I kept up my steady pace. The cool morning air actually made it a great morning for a run. Finally, I felt her coming up next to me. Keeping my eyes straight ahead, I attempted to appear as if I was in the zone. Grabbing my arm she yelled again, “Tristan, goddamn it stop running!”

I stopped on a dime, causing Ryn to run a few feet ahead of me. Glancing at her, I pulled my ear buds out. “Ryn?”

She leaned over and put her hands on her knees as she dragged in a few breaths. “Jesus, now I realize … I’m only… a light weight jogger.”

I knew damn well I was running faster than Ryn was able to run.  Looking at her like I was confused, I asked, “What are you talking about, Ryn? I thought you’d be heading back to Austin?”

She shook her head. “Nope … staying here for two weeks.”

Pulling my head back to act as if I was surprised, I grinned. “Really? So am I.”

Suddenly stiffening her posture she practically shouted, “Wait. What? You’re staying here?” She started pointing to the sand. “For two weeks?”

Glancing down at the sand, I nodded and shrugged. “Well, not in this very spot but here in South Padre. Yeah.”

Ryn swallowed hard. “I see. Did you have this planned?” She raised an eyebrow at me.

“Yeah, I was playing it by ear, one to two weeks, maybe three. I have the time to take and I have to burn it before the end of the year or I lose it.”

Ryn stood and stared at me. I couldn’t tell if she was happy or pissed. “You look like you didn’t sleep much last night. Rough night, Ryn?”

Ryn’s eyes widened and she went to talk but shut her mouth and looked back toward the house she was renting. We hadn’t run that far and now I was wishing we would have. Looking, I saw Dodge standing on the back deck.

Fucker.

“Boyfriend?”

Ryn snapped her head and looked at me. “Excuse me?”

Gesturing with my hand, I pointed and asked, “The guy, is he your boyfriend?”

Ryn’s eyes searched my face as if she was trying to read my reaction to seeing some douche bag asshole, who I was pretty sure fucked her senseless last night, standing on her deck.

“Um … no … he’s um … well … he’s …” Turning to look at Dodge she let out a sigh before looking at me.

“A fuck buddy?”

Her eyes narrowed as her hands went to her lips. “What?”

I lifted my shoulders in a shrug. “I don’t know Ryn, you seemed to be stumbling on your words so I just guessed.” Smirking, I winked at her.

“Are you still seeing Liberty?”

My smile faded a bit. “No. We’re over.”

Lifting an eyebrow, I could tell she was holding back a smile. “How come? You get bored with her and pick up another girl on the side?”

Ouch. That hurt.

“No, she wanted something with me that I didn’t want with her.”

Clearing her throat, she whispered, “And what did she want?”

“Marriage.”

Ryn’s eyes widened in shock as she took a step back. “Oh. Well um … I guess I’ll see you around, Tristan.”

My heart instantly felt as if someone had put a vice around it and squeezed the hell out of it. I wanted to take her up in my arms and kiss her. Show her why the fuck buddy couldn’t wipe me from her mind.

I barely nodded my head. “Yeah, I’ll see ya around.” Turning, I went to start running again.

“Tristan!”

I stopped and turned to her, “Yeah, baby?”

Her eyes closed briefly before she opened them and looked into mine. My knees wobbled when I saw the hurt in those beautiful blue eyes. “Why did you bring me to your parent’s for Christmas? Why didn’t you just bring Liberty if she was the one you wanted to be with?”

That … I was not expecting.
