You'll need a cold shower after devouring this steamy series...after all, it is scorching hot in Texas!
The sixth installment in Amari Nylix's addictive series, Austin Heat: THE ONE...Who Resisted, will make you cry and ache, relate and cheer, as Jake's oldest sister sets out to reclaim her life and agency. Melissa gains clarity, finally, after years of acquiescence, and realizes the perfect upper middle-class life she dreamed of, curated even, is a farce. A very bad fit.
In the wake of Jake and Rakell's blow-up in Book Five, Melissa confronts herself and takes a cold, hard look at her choices: the social group she has prided herself on being part of, the seemingly impeccable marriage, the altogether contrived version of her that took years to craft. Now, it all feels like a cage, imprisoning her, holding her back, cutting her off from her true concept of fulfillment. Will she ultimately be brave enough to cast it all aside and stand up for the values she's repressed to live this artificial so-called bliss?
As Melissa comes to terms with the truth that she doesn't recognize the person she is today, she's unexpectedly faced with still excruciating heartache from her past. She finds herself a whisper away from the first lips she ever kissed. That boy, now a man, will inspire her to reconcile the person she is with the spirit she once was. Will she look in the mirror and finally be honest with herself about who she is and what really matters to her?
Meanwhile, Rakell's ascension into stardom continues to haunt Jake, who's determined to stay angry at her, but can he continue to deny his near addiction for this lady? And though Dr. Martinez is committed to Dwayne, will her rich, powerful family thwart their bond? Can she find the strength to stand up to her controlling father, to avoid being forced into the life that has bound her mother? Will Dwayne be strong enough for both of them as Dr. Martinez redefines herself and fights to break free of her tether?
If this were a TV show (it is not...yet), think: a naughty version of Virgin River hooks up with Friday Night Lights. Add in a little Yellowstone toothpick-chewin', and you get the vibe. This spicy, Austin-based series follows Jake, Rakell, Dwayne, Josefina, Melissa and Mr. Heartache, along with a host of equally intriguing supporting characters as they search for The One.
