I
just finished reading this a few hours ago. What did I just read?? It was one
big hurricane of emotions. One heartstopping lustful romance. And, twists and
turns and tragedy that I never saw coming. This was my first J.A. Huss read,
and if all her books are like this, then I’m a huge fan. After turning the last
page, I just sat there – too overcome by the ending. The climax was riveting
and painful. All that chaos between the truth and what was really going down. I
just knew that Ark was hiding something big. What it was, I had no idea. He was
brooding and dark. Always in control. And, Blue? Wow, she was broken to the
core as she tries to hide from pain of her abuse. Always reaching out just not
to be alone. While the third member of this trio, JD, really was a mystery. He
was your typical happy-go-lucky guy. Always smiling. Joking around. But, there
was something deep below the surface that was just not right. He was drowning
in guilt and loss. All this destruction and torment finally explodes in minutes
as lives are lost, truths come out, and the pain of it all destroys their
threesome.
I
flew right through this novel. I only put it down to cook dinner, and even that
was in a flurry. It kept my attention until the bitter end. Two best friends
who encounter a damaged young woman on a rainy night. The three begin a
relationship like none other. It’s passionate. It’s lustful. It’s erotic as
well as tender. FIERY HOT, HOT HOT, AND THEN SOME!!! Nothing like any of them
have ever experienced before. And, when lines get crossed a few months down the
road, everything goes to shit. This was one hell of a ride! I don’t want to
give away any spoilers, so I’m not going to say anymore about the story, but I
will say that I was deeply moved by the connection that these three people had.
It was written intricately with suspenseful fascination. Sure the language was
graphic and the intimacy was dangerously erotic, but I thought it was perfectly
portrayed with realism. It was written in dual POV’s by Ark and Blue. What I
thought was interesting is that the author chose not to include JD’s POV. I
wonder why??? Did I miss something??
No
truer story could have been interpreted with more intensity and anguish as what
this author brought to the table while writing such an emotional drama. So,
don’t pass this one up! It’s intricately woven together with three soulmates
that are bound by eternal desire.
