Darkness has long since blanketed Callm & Kara's lives - five whole years in fact. Both characters are still wounded by the past, both begin the story fighting with everything they have at their disposal - Callm with his sword and daggers, ready and willing to slit Kara's pretty little throat if need be; and Kara with her schemes, quick mind and unending determination.After enduring more than anyone's share of torture, Kara goes to marry a monster with a plan that not only risks her life but her future husband's. I read this heart stopping book feeling every bit of strain of the choices she's forced to make, the way she has to survive.And Callm, with a dead heart and a soul he assumed he'd long since sold to the devil, is as terrifying as he is intriguing. A man who wouldn't hesitate to kill, but also a man with a level of tenderness he had no idea he could even possess, quickly burrowed into my heart.The author dragged me into a world where life isn't lived, it's a fight just to breathe for another day. The pain, torment, anguish and fire are real, gritty and put me through a whirlwind of emotions that left me raw at times, fulfilled to the point of bursting at others.I can honestly say I've never read a story so deep, hot and dark that it dictated every feeling I had in a way that sucked me in and held me hostage.His Judas Bride is a definite keeper, and much like the author's debut, The Unraveling of Lady Fury, one I'll read again and again.
