Beautiful Redemption
The next brother we meet is Thomas. He is the oldest of the boys, and is the one who the brothers see the least of. Being away for work keeps him pretty busy, and to keep the family at peace, he just avoids them as much as he can.
When Liis Lindy is transferred from Chicago to San Diego on request of Thomas Maddox, she knows she's in for it. She's heard of his reputation and knows he's a hardass. To her, this is just one step toward her ultimate goal up the food chain to Quantico. She can handle it.
What she can't handle is being a second choice for a Maddox man. What they thought was a fun, one-night stand turns into an awkward first day of work... and things snowball from there.
With Thomas working on a top-secret case that could cause his whole world to go up in flames, he finds himself trusting his heart one more time to not let him down. He knows he screwed up before; he remembers what heartbreak feels like. No one wants to see Thomas go through that again (he's kind of a hardass boss when he's heartbroken) so Liis must decide if it's worth it to see whether or not a Maddox boy is more important than everything she has ever worked towards.
The feels just keeps getting stabbed over and over again; McGuire does not give us fans a break with these boys and the ladies they fall in love with. Told from only Liis's perspective, we see one third of a very sad triangle. No girl wants to feel like she's the second choice... especially when what seems like Thomas's first choice is always going to be around. The family drama comes to a boiling point in this one, and Thomas must go against everything his gut tells him to .. do what his gut tells him.
Remember back in Travis and Abby's story I told you to pay attention to a few key scenes? The who, how, and what is revealed with Thomas's story so brace yourself. You're in for quite a ride.
