It's not easy being the bad guy. Yeah, that's a lie. It's pretty damn simple. You act and you own it. You sell your soul to protect those you love and screw the rest. It's the restraint that's hard. The demons that poke at your trigger, just waiting for a chance to unleash the fire in your soul. Call me a villain. Call me whatever helps you sleep at night and feel good about the delusion you call love. But there's nothing pretty about the real story you think know. If you want it, here it is. Because I've sinned plenty to protect Holland Drake, but there's nothing I won't do to save her sister Hannah.

Some say a "happily ever after" needs a wedding. Heaven knows after the hell we've survived, we deserve the mother of all HEAs. All the pieces are in place. All the players, assembled. The Wedding of the Century is locked and loaded. Too bad nothing's fair in love, rock, and wedding planning. Guess we should have seen it coming. Did we expect anything less from An NSB Wedding? After a heavy and emotional journey, The Hold Me Series concludes with a touching (and at times hilarious) tribute to love in all its forms and the people who make life worth living.
