My rating: 5 of 5 stars

*****5 Second Chance Stars*****
JL Perry simply knocked this right out; this story is so beautiful and raw and emotional rollercoaster. If this your first read by JL Perry you will not be disappointed Jax can be read a s a standalone and you should go back and read Bastard because Carter is like a bottle of red wine left to age and you get to meet Jax. Back to Jax; Jaxson (Jax) Albright a son of career politician and a son of socialite wife and a brother to a prefect son.
