Review: An intense and emotional dark romance that gets it right.

This book was intense and suspenseful from the first to the last page, and one of the best books I've read this year. Just when I thought I had the book figured out, it would send me another curveball, leaving me guessing all over again. The story was well written with an easy flow.In regards the hero/heroine. Gwen is a survivor through and through, but I question how strong she would be without Lance there. Lance became her main source of strength as the story progressed. Lance has spent so much time in what he refers to as a world of death and debauchery that he fears he's beginning to lose hold of his humanity. Gwen shows him how to feel and love again, which he feels makes him weak, but he can't help but feel when he's around her. So when you get right down to it, they both needed each other, which makes this love story so brilliant. Neither one was what I would call broken, but they needed each other.I would warn that this is a dark romance and there are a few non-con scenes, involving the heroine and the secondary characters that may upset sensitive readers. However, I have read much worse in that regard.
