LUKE (DEFAULT DISTRACTION #4) by A. S. Roberts – Review by Kerry Carr

Luke by A.S. Roberts
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 4th book in the Default Distraction series. As with the books before I have really enjoyed this story. The author does an amazing job with her characters. The characters are all relatable and their stories are moving and heartbreaking as well as heartwarming.

Luke is a member of Default Distraction. He has a hard start in life after his mother left him on the church steps when he was born. He grew up in the church orphanage and his determination brought him to where he is today as part of a successful band. However things haven’t always been good for him. After losing his wife to a drug overdose he now finds himself alone with his young daughter. As the guys in Default Distraction start making plans for their future Luke needs some to care for his daughter. And that’s where Nikki comes in.

Nikki also hasn’t had a great upbringing. With her dad leaving her family she has taken on the role of supporting her family. Now she finds herself out of a job and no idea what to do.

When she gets the job as Nanny to Lukes little girl she feels like all her dreams have come true. She has always been attracted to Luke but does her picture in her head match what Luke is really like? Meanwhile Luke is struggling with his feelings towards Nikki. Since he has sworn off love he struggles to accept what he is feeling now.

Can they both work through their bad pasts and upbringing to realise that love can exist for them both? Or will the secrets and deceptions from their pasts come back to haunt them and destroy them?
