Salvation and Secrets: Ana and Jackson Book 2 (Chastity Falls) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 742 ratings

The gritty, angsty, new adult romance series from USA Today bestselling author L A Cotton continues...

Chastity Falls was supposed to be Ana Parry’s fresh start.

But what started as her salvation soon became her worst nightmare.

After losing the very thing that gave her reason again, Ana is back at Chastity Falls. Holding on by a thread and trying hard to forget about Jackson isn’t easy when she’s determined to uncover the Donohue’s biggest secrets.

Walking away from Ana was the hardest thing Jackson Pierce has ever done, and months later, he refuses to forget.

He can’t.

Because rising tensions with a rival town mean Ana is still in harm’s way and, this time, he’s determined to protect her—at all costs.

Loyalty drove them apart, but will secrets piece them back together? Or tear them apart for good?

*Salvation and Secrets is the second book in Ana and Jackson’s trilogy. Due to mature content, this book is recommended for readers aged 17+

    If I could give this book more than 5 stars I would.  I loved Loyalties and Lies but LA Cotton outdid herself with Secrets and Salvations.  I did receive an advanced copy for an honest review.  When I read L & L in February, I couldn’t wait for the release of this book.  I dove right in when I received it and had a very difficult time putting it down but family, work and sleep didn’t allow me to read it all at once.  I loved that we also had Jackson’s POV in this book.  Ana and Jackson both have lost in their lives and because of loyalty to Jackson’s “family” they can’t be together if he wants to keep her safe and that is what he wants to do at all costs is to keep her safe.  They have this connection and what should have been Ana’s fresh start away from the tragedy from high school, now has her falling back into that dark space after the accident.  Of course we have Elena and Paul looking out for her and trying to keep her from going back into that place.  

    Being apart from Ana is killing Jackson as he has never felt this way about anyone and he wants out but can anyone really leave the “family”?  I was on the edge and the frustrations of situations were at an all time high.  Chastity Falls is a town with many secrets as as they are slowly revealed will salvation be found and can they bring Ana and Jackson back together or will it keep them apart.  Now I can’t wait for summer when we have book 3 to find out more of their story.  There was such great character interaction and emotional depth to this book that you will not be able to put it down unless absolutely necessary because of outside obligations like I encountered.

    Ana and Jax are this amazing couple with so many obstacles in there way. I knew Jax wouldn't be able to stay away from Ana and that things would only get worse. I hate Braiden. Guys with egos that big make me sick. I hope he eventually gets what he deserves.
    I love so many of the secondary characters in this series. So far they all seem genuin even though a couple times I feared they we in on something too. Elena, Ana's roommate is so good with her. Paul is such a sweetheart that I can't believe she didn't fall for him a little bit after Jax left her. Dennis seams to have Jax's back which he really needs. Otis and V are so sweet, kind and loving. They are everything Jackson needs for a family.
    Can't wait to see how this all plays out in the final book. How will Jackson handle his mafia Uncle Marcus? What will happen with Braiden? And Braiden's sister Briony, will she finally leave Jackson alone and move on. How can she not see that Jax sees her more of a sister then a lover.

    4.5/5 stars.... ARC received for honest review.

    I have been waiting for this book.... the author also knew i had been waiting ;) and it definitely did not disappoint. You have to read Loyalty and Lies book #1 to follow what is going on in this book, and they are both worth the read.
    The writing is great, and it keeps you hooked.
    I was only slightly disappointed towards the end - trying not to give spoilers, but it was the scene in the diner, with Calder and his gang, and when Braiden turned up, it was a bit anti-climatic for me, i thought there would be more "boom" to it, kind of let me down a little tiny bit - hence the reason why it wasn't five star...
    But it definitely doesn't disappoint overall, definitely need to pick this series up if you haven't already done so, you won't regret it. Well done L.A Cotton, another great book

    This story is alot like fallen crest series and I think if I had read this series first then I more then likely wld have given it 5 stars. There are a lot of unanswered questions I still don't understand Braidens character other then he's crazy there are still alot of unanswered questions. I don't really understand why Jackson and Ana being together was Jackson picking her over the family because if Braiden had let her in there would have been a good chance the family would never have split apart. Braiden seems stupid and crazy. And Jackson seems like a on to it person but he seemed to just sit back alot and wait for things to go wrong and never really having any kind of plan, that side of Jackson's character shld have been thought about more. Ana a broken girl always seemed to be crying for something and everything seemed to be her thinking about stuff and zoning out on her friends. I do really like her friends but they always seemed to let her go off by herself even knowing that she wasn't really safe. There just seemed to be alot of silly things like that.where everyone knew something was about to happen but was willing to sit back, act normal and wait for it. Other then that it was good I will nor then likely read the next book

    This second book is as amazing as the first book, Loyalties and Lies! We are back in Chastity Falls for the beginning of a new school year! I was drawn back in to the suspense, angst and drama of this small college town. Jackson stepped away from Ana in order to protect her! Ana is spiraling from Jackson's decision to choose the Donohues, even though it's to protect her. Getting back with her roommate and their close knit of friends, Ana realizes she has to accept that he chose the Donohues. Can Jackson survive leaving Ana? Can Ana fight to keep the demons of her past from taking over? Ms. Cotton weaves us even deeper in to the mystery of Chastity Falls! Great series I could not put down!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great sequel with stronger characterisation.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 29, 2016
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This was a fantastic sequel that paved the way to stronger characterisation and a notch up on the danger scale. Jackson's decision to walk away in the hope to protect Ana was a painful one, and with the added male POV, it really helped getting inside the head of the young man who has so much to lose in loving the broken girl from Florida.

    Ana is going through the notions. The man who put her back together has walked away, and the pain from her past rears its ugly head. The need to distract herself from her internal suffering is manifesting into self-harm, reverting back to bad coping mechanisms that got her through last time. Luckily for her, she has friends who notice and just as she is getting her head back in the game, he is suddenly everywhere.

    Ana and Jackson can only take so much, and desperation to be with the one you love outweighs the fear of being caught. Consequences be damned, but Braiden is watching, and it's only a matter of time before the cards fall, and Jackson and Ana make a decision that make or break them for good.

    I am really enjoying this series, and the double POV narrative was a welcome addition to this sequel in the Chastity Falls Series, if anything it highlighted Jackson's position and the dilemma he faces in letting an outsider into the corrupt family fold.

    Ana, having a deep interest in investigative journalism is on a quest for answers, and they don't come easily, but when they do the story goes from dramatic to dangerous which creates a power ending / gripping opener for book three - I just had to dive straight in.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Addition To An Amazing Series! #TeamJackson
    Reviewed in Canada on August 22, 2015
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    In order to understand what takes place in this book, you must go back to the start and read Loyalty and Lies. This is a series that even with as much background as the author does give you in each continuing book, you need to experience for yourself to truly understand.

    Now with that being said, on to my thoughts about this follow up book in the Chastity Falls series.

    With the road that the last book took, the way it ended and also the way my heart broke right along with Ana’s, I was frightened to read this one. I was scared to see where Ana and Jackson would be when it started and if they could come back from what they had been put through in the previous book and maintain the connection they shared.

    I had nothing to fear, but one hell of a gripping, fast paced and awesome read.

    I’ve made no secret of my love of Jackson Pierce. I’m not entirely sure why I feel so strongly toward him, other than the author doing one hell of a job and making him the most sympathetic, yet flawed and imperfect character ever, but I fell for him hard in the first book and if possible even harder in this one. The way the school regards The Fallen, is exactly how I felt I was when it pertained to this particular character. Even now with the last page turned and having gotten to read the third one in ARC form, I’ve got a soft spot for Jackson freaking Pierce.

    But there can be no Jackson, not really, without Ana. The struggles Ana experiences right when the book picks up, the despair that is shown as she tries to navigate a life apart from Jackson, wanting to give up and move on, from him and even at times from life, tore me apart. They were extremely hard to read and my heart went out to her. For anyone that has ever struggled with the issues Ana faces in these books, you’ll get it, but for those that haven’t, you will look at it with new eyes when you’re done. It was an issue that the author wrote about with such care that I have to believe she knows someone or has been a part of this in her own life.

    Just like the first book, the road to happiness for this couple, both together and apart is not an easy one. There is a constant struggle, a tug of war between what their want in their hearts (each other) and what awaits them if they give into that (family backlash, one or more of them getting hurt).

    The story, much like the first book captured me right from page one and gripped me all the way through. Bringing to life moments of sheer bliss while reading, anger (at both characters and some others), love, sadness, heart wrenching agony (for Ana) and even moments of laughter. Basically, this book brought to life every emotional response known to man so that by the time I turned the last page and saw what was waiting and would be explored in the next book, I was lost to the biggest book hangover ever.

    Even now, having read the next book, knowing what happens, the result is the same. L.A. Cotton with these characters and their road to happily ever after has officially ruined me.

    Amazing characters, gripping story and a pace that continuously moves, keeping you firmly planted on the edge of your seat with no lulls or incidents that didn’t need to be there and you’ve got the recipe for a definite 5* read and this one achieved that and more.

    This is a definite recommend for anyone who likes some suspense, mystery and intrigue in their life, on top of romance and characters you just can’t help but feel for and swoon over.

    Just know before diving in that it’s a series, so they story will continue on and you’ll be golden.
