Synopsis
Growing up a rich girl in a rich town should be easy. Some think that money can buy happiness, but when you’re the daughter of an influential businessman who traded the silver spoon for his belt buckle and has everyone in his pocket, all it really buys is the makeup to hide the bruises.
Skye Divine had found solace in him. He was her world. But without him, she had a choice: leave everything behind or stay in the desert and die. She would rather be homeless and starve than ask her family for help. But when her luck finally runs out, she may be left with no option.
Then two worlds unexpectedly collide and this time the tables have turned.
Faced with another impossible choice, she puts her faith in Preston again. But he is not the person he used to be. Gone is the trailer park boy, in his place is a confident, wealthy man who knows what he wants. He wants her. He’s only ever wanted her. But he wants her to surrender to him completely.
If Skye places herself in his care, can she trust that he will safeguard her? Or will he commit the ultimate betrayal?

Virginia’s Review
A big shout out to Heather for Desert Skye. I loved the first book in the series, Diamond Hart, but Heather definitely took it up a notch with this one. I found the writing to be so much better and the story had more depth. The length was perfect too- I know Heather debated splitting it up into 2 novellas but I think she made the right decision in making this one book.
We met Preston and Skye in Diamond Hart. They were separated and it is now 5 years later. I don’t want to give things away but I will say this- their story isn’t always pretty, that’s for sure. But it’s sweet. And it will have you all over place emotionally.
I loved Preston. He was so hot and domineering, yet gentle and compassionate. We don’t find out all the details of what he went through over the 5 years he was apart from Skye. I was really curious what made him become a Dom in the first place, but it seems we may find out in the next book. Skye was sassy and snarky, yet underneath the tough exterior she is someone who has been hurt.
Watching their relationship grow in both books from friends to more has been great. I loved the alternating point of view between Preston and Skye. There are some secondary characters too- hopefully we see them again in the next book and can learn more about them.
The ending- what a way to leave us hanging. Seriously. Heather needs to get us book 3 ASAP! Get writing Heather!! Please!
4 stars!
