Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Sweet Holy Hell. This author can write some steamy angst. This has been one of my most anticipated books of 2019 and after reading it I can definitely say that it deserved to be there. One of my favorite things about this author is that she is not afraid to discuss subjects that are hard to read about. What I thought this story was going to be about due to the blurb was entirely different than how it turned out. I figured it would be a taboo romance. It was SO much more than that. Just like it is important to not judge a book by its cover don't assume to know what the book is about just based off the blurb. The subject matter was heartbreaking. the underlying backstory was sad and made me want to know more about the characters involved and how it still affects them today. Not as much Erik, because the author explained that remarkably but the family and in particular Hannah. (I really hope eventually her story is told.) The characters were intense. Erik had his moments that I questioned why I liked him because he said and acted in some pretty questionable ways. However, his motives were always good even if he went about it wrong. Alex. It was hard to remember how young she was because she seemed so mature in so many ways. Feisty and strongwilled. I liked her. I felt for her. The secondary characters were also amazing. I really wanted to know more about Ian and Jared. It was also nice to see Carina(from The Lovers) make an appearance in the story. I absolutely loved her and desperately wanted to see more of her after her story had ended. Sadly, the backstory of this story is something that breaks my heart, especially as it becomes more and more common. It is one area that I wish just stayed in fiction instead of being a growing problem. That being said, the author covered it with grace and care. I loved the idea of Haven and the purpose behind it all that much more because of the reason it was worked into the story (not that I wish that Haven needed to exist at all). Again, hands down another hit from this author. She truly gets better with every book. I highly recommend this book. Off topic, YAY for Ian's story next and can I just say that the ending?!?!

Belongs to SeriesVoyeur (3)
Handsome and mysterious, he swoops in to offer me a new life, but this is no knight in shining armor. He's cold, hardened by his past. But there's an inferno underneath the ice. I can feel the heat each time he looks at me-each time he gives in to the desire between us. No matter how much I push to unleash the fire in his eyes, he shoves back harder each time. He's merciless with his cruel words, telling me how naive I am, how little I know of the world. But I'm stronger than he thinks. When we face down our demons from the past, I'll prove which one of us was in need of saving and which one of us is the savior. No library descriptions found.

Despite Eric not being one of my favorite heros in this series, the story was so good and absolutely worth the time to listen.
Narration by Aaron Shedlock was great. Kathryn Lynhurst was also very good as Alexandra. ( )
