I never buy books because the cover catches my eye. When a cover intrigues me I research the book and then make my decision to buy or not to buy. Well in the case of Taint I knew without a doubt, before reading one word about the storyline that not only was I going to buy this book but that I would fall in love with the story and the characters. Needless to say my assumption was right. Not only did I buy the book I devoured it. I lost myself in the words and fell helplessly in love with Justice Drake.Let’s start with the storyline. Different? You bet. Intriguing? Amazingly so. Thought provoking? Beyond a doubt. Sexy as sin? Oh no it goes way beyond that.What an amazing and unique storyline we are treated to as we enter into the world that is Justice Drake. I found myself intrigued, consumed and lost within the words of the author. I loved that I had never read a book with such a unique setting and found that I just loved experiencing the story as it played out.The characters were brilliant. Defined to precision in both a visual and emotional sense.It would be impossible not to connect to Abby. Though she lives a life of extreme luxury she holds a bit of the every girl inside of herself. She is defiant, awkward, real, sensual, raw, vulnerable and desperate to feel love in its every form.Justice Drake possess every quality that I adore in a book boyfriend. Needless to say he is tall, maintains his body to perfection, he holds a sense of intrigue, mystery and darkness. He can make you laugh on demand and can bring you to your knees with mere words. He makes you want with such intense desire and he has the ability to set free your every desire.I loved each and every word of this book. I adored the intense buildup of anticipation. The keen and spot on sizzle of desire. The shock and awe. The mystery and intrigue. The unique visual highlights were a touch of creative brilliance. The breaking and rebuilding of one’s soul. The surprises. The hurt and dissolution. The intense mind play and the erotic, sensual seduction of creative and intense lovemaking.I for one did not want this story to end. I loved the fast pace, how I was never quite sure what would happen next, how I felt the highs and lows of the characters, how I gasped in surprise and slowly released a breath I did not realize I was holding at the intensity of the passion.I know for me at least Justice Drake will live in my mind for a long time and I can only hope that at some point the author will delight us with more of his story.
