Summary: (Book One of the Eye of the Storm series)
Lydia Martin has always had dreams, the weirdest and hottest of them all involving a faceless, muscle-bound man that speaks like sin and smells like sex. Like any sane person, she always put the dreams down to an overactive imagination, coupled with a higher than average libido.
One night, however, instead of their usual, erotic encounters, she finds him in her dream, chained to a wall and screaming in pain. Not only that, but she thinks she recognises the building he's being held captive in as one that's just a few streets away. Awaking with an irrepressible need to save her fantasy lover, Lydia decides to humour her dream self and head on over to where she thinks he's imprisoned.
What unfolds is beyond even her wildest imaginings, as she's sucked into a dangerous and deadly world she never knew existed ... and it turns out that the man who inhabits her darkest fantasies, isn't the only one that needs releasing.
NOTE: This is an adult paranormal fantasy novella (over 34,000 words) containing scenes of explicit sexual content and some violence, entwined with romantic elements.
The Review
Well I saw the author talk about this on facebook and I thought mmmm sounds just up my street and do you know what? It was, I really loved this book, I am so looking forward to Book 2, I cannot wait to hear more about The Pack, Ryan, Lawrence and my favourite tortured soul Taylor, The little teaser at the back of the book, OK, The epilogue, promises there will be a lot more to look forward to, This is definitely only for over 18’s, Lydia was a very complex character, who did not know what she was, she actually made an appointment to see a therapist, she was having doubts about herself, but pulled herself together when she needed to, She could stick up for herself when it was called for, her dreams were wicked and I hope I get dreams like that, *Hot* I loved all the main male characters, each had their own complexities, Lawrence (the researcher and muscle) Ryan (The Muscle and Leader) and Taylor (The male with issues and the muscle) Did I say Muscle? Yeah there was a lot of it, I could picture each of them in my head and saw the whole book play out as a film, I love when I can picture a book like that, Book 2 will be highly anticipated on my kindle, recommended to all my friends, 5/5
