I am not surprised that I just adore this book. Cara Dee has done it again. Her writing is phenomenal. You can tell when someone does their research or just writes and calls it "fiction." Cara did her research. Just like every other book she has written. She takes the time to learn about what she is writing. PTSD is not something you just write about. Someone very close to me suffers with PTSD and I believe she nailed it.I love how you get to know Cam and Austin. You get into their heads and into the setting. I felt like that I was actually in the cell with them. They have so many emotions and I loved how I could feel them all.I also have to say that this book goes into depth of a group of men that were kidnapped and tortured for five months. I don't think it is that graphic is the torture, but other people might. It is also goes into detail about how two men fall in love. Which I love that part. Cam and Austin know each other and deserve to be happy. These two coming together is very steamy.I love how there is a slow burn with Austin and how he wraps his head around his feelings for Cam. When he finally does realize and lets himself go...OH WOW!!! I have never really been into strictly M/M romance before. Cara sure does change that. I might just have to reread this one a few times.I can't wait for the follow up novella. I just want more of these two. Thanks Cara!
