There is a lot of good m/m out there. Most are contemporary romances, but there has been a large increase in paranormal romances too. Most m/m readers want HEA stories and that is what the market caters too. I enjoy a good HEA but I also like stories that go to dark places and have a supernatural twist, and that is a lot harder to find. Lucky for me Adrienne Wilder's books fill that need.This is an emotionally intense roller-coaster of a ride. Be warned, the sex scenes fall into the erotic category.This three book series features a strong romance between Ellis and Jon. There is also an amazing and touching relationship between Ellis and his mentally disabled brother Rudy. Rudy is a main character and his disability is beautifully and respectfully portrayed. Ellis has spent his life protecting Rudy from the outside world, but in an unexpected twist you learn it has always been the other way around.The story goes to some dark places with our heroes (Ellis, Jon, Rudy) and you will have your heart removed and stomped on (in the good way) before it is over.Another great thing about this story (all three books) is price. I have always found m/m stories to be over priced compared to other genres and they rarely go on sale. But Wilder has priced each book at the same price as most self published ebooks.I have read all three books and have used this same review for all three since it is technically one story divided into three parts. But I will talk a bit about the individual books now.Book One introduces us to Ellis, Rudy and Jon. We learn what motivates them why they have made the decisions in their lives that brought them to where they are emotionally. Ellis and Jon feel helpless and hopeless until they find each other. Book one is more of a contemporary romance, but just below the surface you know something big and terrible is waiting.*I received a copy of this from the author in exchange for an honest review
