This was the first book I have read by Jo Raven and I have to say, I really enjoyed it.  This is a first in her Inked Brotherhood series.  Although it is part of a series, it can be read as a stand-alone book.  “Asher” is about Audrey and Asher, once childhood friends, who are torn apart by tragedy.  They still care deeply for each other but Asher’s emotional and physical abuse keeps him from reaching out to the one person who can help him, Audrey.Once I picked up this book, I couldn’t put it down.  I wanted to see how and when they would finally get over their individual pain and realize they are far better together than they ever are apart.  The amount of time it took for the main characters to push through their internal struggles is what prompted me to give it less than 5 bonbons.  I think they could have been brought together sooner.  When reading the story I was asking myself, ”Is this it?” But no, it wasn’t.  It got frustrating.  But when they did finally get together and offered each other that higher level of trust, sparks flew so bright I had to close my eyes.This is a really good read, which I highly recommend.  Just be patient with Asher. He’s a gentle soul.
