PLEASE BE AWARE THERE ARE TRIGGERS, graphic scenes of abuse.
I couldn't read this book fast enough! By the time I came to the end of book 1, Finding Memphis, I was literally crying my eyes out! I could hardly contain myself, I HAD to find out what happens to Ash! Book 2 picks up exactly where book 1 left off, smoothly. And oh my goodness! While the guys are desperately trying to find Ash, she is being subjected to round after round of horrifying abuse. As a sentence in the book states, "my heart dropped to my stomach!" But this is not all about abuse, it's about a young girl who tried to escape a stalker, but failed, it's about healing, body and soul from trauma, both physical and emotional, it's about 4 gorgeous hunks who will, and do, move heaven and earth to find her. It's about love and understanding, empathy and tenderness. The story draws you in, like reeling in a fishing line, until you feel like the fish at the end of the hook, gasping! The guys, all of whom are yummy and super hot, are the most tender, sweetest one could imagine. The bond they have with each other and Ash is beautifully portrayed and how they rallied around Ash, simply glorious! I loved how I was kept guessing, the mystery nearly killing me! And the portrayal of the healing, for all of them, was so real. The steamy scenes are deliciously hot, magnificently tender and caring. I loved the growth of all the characters, especially Ash and the cherry on the top is that who I thought Ryker was, well, he wasn't! This book will have you gasping in horror, crying in despair and laughing for joy!
