Review: good book if you like "gritty"

I love this author's first book and thought her writing was amazing. I still think her writing is amazing but with each subsequent book I felt like she increased the graphic nature of the plot and the story line to include more violence or the NA term "gritty". I havent written a review in a while but felt like I had to post this for those fans that may have one clicked without reading the blurb or the reviews. I did this because I'm a fan of the author even though I noticed the change in her pattern. More fool me. I will say that the author does a great job in the foreward letting readers know in advance so I was mentally prepared. I thought. THis book was very distrubing to me and not just because of the graphic nature in the violent scene that takes place but because it impacted a favorite character. I'll try to avoid spoilers but I'm not a fan of authors who do harm to the lead hero or heroine of a prior book. As a die hard romance fan I find this painful and hard to swallow. Especially when the author has sold you on the HEA as well as Fanetti does.I have removed her from my autobuy list and will carefully read reviews prior to purchasing future books. I'm not sure I'll buy the last book (#7) for fear of what will be done for a "climatic" finale. I tend to stay away from authors who write such books because they're not to my taste and I believe if you dont like a topic its best to avoid it instead of continuing in hope the authors writing will be influenced to your way of thinking. LOL.For those that like the real feel of an MC book or the gritty stuff, they will like this I'm sure. Again, Fanetti is an amazing author and if this review was strictly based on the question of did the author cause emotion on your part or move you in some way be it postiive or negative...well then I rate this 5 stars.
