Ashton Garrison walked away from a privileged life in order to hide from the one thing she’s not willing to face. She knows she left behind a trail of pain, but in the long run, her betrayal will hurt less than the truth. She now has one goal: Live life to the fullest with no regrets and no attachments. She has high hopes that a move to new surroundings will provide the escape she desires, but what Ashton doesn’t count on is how fate always seems to find a way to screw up any good plan. Sometimes, when love comes knocking, the pull is too strong not to answer. Suddenly, what she thought she wanted to escape from is what Ashton now wants more than anything.
Nathan Lockton has one mission: find his target and complete the task he was hired to do—no attachments and no emotion necessary. He’s done it over and over again. What he thought was a typical lost-and-found job has turned into a life examining moment as Nathan is forced to deal with something he has always ignored–his feelings. Now faced with a decision, Nathan must choose to either follow his heart or complete the job.
Love can come when you least expect it. The question is: If the odds are stacked against you, how far are you willing to go for the one you love? (Goodreads)
No Attachments was an emotional roller coaster of a ride. It’s light-hearted, yet serious, with moments that made me laugh, and others that made me cry. I had no idea that this was going to be such a tearjerker!
I really liked both the main characters, Ashton and Nathan, and how the story was told from both of their perspectives. I loved how Ashton lived each day to the fullest, and is determined to check off things from her list, even if it means doing something that she’d never do otherwise.
The only reason I didn’t rate this higher is because I felt that some of the witty dialogue and plot devices seemed forced. Overall though, I really enjoyed this story, and I look forward to reading more by Tiffany King! I’d recommend No Attachments to fans of New Adult contemporary romance.
