Q&A with Author - Katherine Owen discussion

Brock is set up to be the perfect hero, but he carries some intrinsic flaws and is somewhat conflicted. He’s charming, yet cavalier, selfish, a real playboy. His good looks have gotten him what he wants for a number of years without any emotional entanglements with women to tie him down. Yet, within days of meeting Jordan Holloway, readers get a glimpse of the coming changes that he will have to make within himself in order to be with her. His own journey in coming to terms with Ethan’s death, battling the guilt he feels for not saving his best friend, and overcoming the guilt he has because of his feelings for Jordan—all represent his personal journey in overcoming his personal struggles and forging a different life then he had planned.

Yes, he’s the hero, but so lost and so set upon personal destruction to a certain degree that he is easy to want, to save and to love. Oh yes! He and Jordan share some similarities in how emotionally closed off they both are and in the way they both suffer in silence with such tragic loss. It’s very powerful. The connection between them was intriguing and that is what I wanted to explore the most with this story.
