I received a gifted copy from the author for an honest review.Once again some of my favorite quotes…“If she smells half as good as she looks, I’ll ******* lose my **** and bend her over right ******* here, I know it!”“You let me catch you, firecracker. Now there is no damn way in hell I’m letting you go.”“Oh, you know… It’s just my sick sense."Leo, Leo, Leo…I didn’t think it was possible for me to love you more than I already did but dammit you crawled your way into my heart and made yourself right at home.Its so amazing to see that a man can love a woman just as deeply, if not more so, than a woman can love a man. To know that their hearts seize to beat to the song only they could hear when that person was near. This is how much Leo loved Lillian. He loved her so much it almost killed him, which almost killed me when I witnessed it.You learn things you didn’t know and Leo’s story makes you see "A Woman Gone Mad" in a whole new light. It’s like not being able to see far away and finally putting on your glasses.People always say there is a thin line between love and hate, and when your hearts in it that line gets blurred so in-between you don’t know where one ends or the other begins. My heart broke for the tragedy that heartbreak can do to a person. Especially an epic heartbreak that you never ever recover from.At one point I wanted to hold Leo in my arms and gently stroke his hair and murmur words or love and encouragement in his ear, as I shared his pain. Pain that sliced through me and changed me. If I take away one lesson from “Holding Her In Madness,” if would be to never keep the love you have hidden. Shout that **** from the ******* rooftops and **** what everyone else thinks. Never let people get in the way of your heart, especially when you know you’ve found something that can never be found again.Leo and Lillian take the backroads to recovery and in the end it made them stronger, not only as individuals but as a couple. Well ******* done!!!!!
