Super nice to "hook" up with my "friends" Nate, Erin and the gang again!!Taylor Lee always accomplishes several things in her stories: love, attraction, sizzling heat (NO prudes allowed - I'm coining that phrase LOL), suspense, fear, despair, plot, unexpected twists (some CRAZY twists), and outcome. She uses real life issues, travesties actually, to bring about awareness; disseminating the real life peril we face as a human race and mixes it with real human emotion, action, and response.This is a tough one to review; a tough one to read at times. Tough because Taylor touches on subjects that, I personally thought were almost dead (I must be sheltered...). While celebrating her characters and their tight relationships (with much macho,ego stroking - sometimes overly) she deals with nasty brutal, murdering, racism, AMONG other things, domestic abuse. The dialogue between characters AT TIMES seems forced, maybe unreal. However, the stunning plot twists and surprises, along with the sizzling sex, brought me right back into the moment. Honestly, truly sometimes I thought to myself "Wow, this is a 5 Star!" Other times I thought "Hmmm, maybe 3 star". Hence my 4 star review.Overall Good Read. MUCH better if you read the whole trilogy at once!I received an advance copy from Taylor, and this has in no way shaped my review. However, I do love Taylor dearly. She has brought some insight into my own life through her writings, that I can not overlook. As I say, "No Prudes allowed".
