Token is the first book I've read by Kelly Gendron. It's the first book in the Daring the Kane Brothers series and I can't wait for them all. There are 5 gorgeous and diverse brothers and one little sister. The series has promise. Token Kane is a retired boxer. He's big, loyal, humorous, sexy and totally alpha. He's been hired by a personal friend to bring Harley Redbourne back home. Harley is a lost soul. Her family died a decade earlier and she's not only lonely but on a destructive path. This is a spinoff from the Declan brothers which was another good series by this author.The story may be a quick read but the author buts alot of emotion in the story. It could have been a depressing tale, but the author knew how to level things out. There is some humor lift it up. to we get the pleasure of meeting Token again. He and Harley meet under strange circumstances. He was hired to find her and bring her to California. When they meet sparks fly but he knows he has to wait for Harley. she is going through a rough patch and her thinking and behavior are dangerous. But by waiting, he knows he will get more than just a night with her. Harley has been running and living dangerously for the past 10 years. Things come to a head when she meets Token. They must battle through personal demons to get to their hea. I loved Token, he is a great hero. He is strong, protective and knows what he wants. harley really does not stand a chance. She gave a good fight. I am really looking forward to the next brother. they all have stories that need to be told.
Gendron takes us through the disastrous coping mechanisms on the journey to healing. She also reveals Token's backstory and weaves his secrets amongst Harley's. It's well written and well developed, providing an entertaining, yet heartfelt story. Gendron also sets the stage for the continuation of the series by introducing each brother in their own unique way. I love the bantering, loyalty, humor and bonding demonstrated between them all. The ending was a little abrupt, moving immediately into the opening for the next book, which highlights Steele. I would have liked to have seen a little more from Token and Harley as a couple, so I'm expecting more development as the series progresses. All in all, I enjoy Gendron's writing style and it was a great start to a new series.
