BLURB:
Three years ago Lyle made a mistake that cost him his freedom, and almost his life. Now, sick to death of watching his father love the man that Lyle wanted, Lyle accepts an offer to leave Wolf, WY behind and see what life in Washington, D.C. can do for him instead.
When Lyle comes across a seductive, attractive stranger with a fascinating yet terrifying view of humanity, he’s more than intrigued. It doesn’t take Lyle long to realize that Arius isn’t just playing games, though, and when Lyle runs across a secret in Arius’ lair he has no choice but to flee, even knowing his actions will enrage Arius.
On the run, with only a psychic’s second sight and his own instinct to help him, Lyle has nowhere to go but home. The only question is, will they have him when he shows up
REVIEW:
Oh my GOSH…this one was so different from the first book. This author friggin AMAZES me!! It’s uncanny how you can take essentially the same elements from book 1 of a series and make another book so completely different and fresh. I was engrossed throughout the entirety of the story. I kept feeling like it was going one way but that particular way was cold and unsatisfying. Then, WHAM…complete turn of events and we get the warm fluttery feelings, butterflies, and real passionate lust. Ahhhhh….this book was incredible.
Lyle is still pretty angry. He still harbors great resentment towards his dad and he believes himself to still have feelings towards Randy. In a new city Lyle meets a man that fascinates and disturbs him. Conflicted and in lust Lyle finds himself in over his head.
Circumstances arise that have Lyle fleeing his new city and back in the comforting arms of his father, Vaughn. There’s a new love, true love and hope in Lyle’s future but first he has to settle the danger he was running from.
There were so many interesting facets to the story and even though my review is quite vague I hope I capture how fascinating this author is at story telling.
I did feel the story was a little slow at the beginning, simply due to needing to set up for what was to come. The information we got was definitely a necessity. But once it got going it was a nonstop thrill ride full of danger, mystery, magic, passion, lust, and love.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was so unique and incredibly clever. This is not a standalone, however. I think if someone started with book 2, they’d be incredibly lost. So get book 1 and enjoy….
Absolutely recommend.
