This book has so many things I love, I am not even sure where to start. It is the kind of story that only Jasinda Wilder can write. You pick up this dirty beast you think it is going on way but instead you get a growly possessive alpha hero who needs some goodness in his life.
It has been a while since I have read a book that I was so absorbed in that I shut out the world and just read cover to cover.
Myka is at a crossroads. Married young and finally free a terrible marriage she is setting out on a journey to figure out who she is and what is next. She spends weeks with her small North Carolina town behind her and nothing but possibilities in front of her. A chance meetings and invitations to “Sin” leads her to what is truly her destiny.
Rev is strong and fierce. Having lived his life in the darkness of the world. A fighter that has fought for everything in his life. Nothing means more to him then his brothers. As we meet Rev, he is an enigma. He is the strong and silent. He is a man of few words and hides behind the armor of his strength. Rev is that alpha protector. “You touch her you die”. He does the growl that just brings all the heat!
Also, he finally sleeps for real when she is in his bed {Swoon, Swoon, Swoon}
When these two come together it is explosive. The shock of their combustible chemistry is felt by everyone around them. This story is more than just attraction and spice. There is the emotion of home, fitting where you belong. Finding love and acceptance in the most unlikely of places. The care that Rev has for Myka even as he holds her at arm’s length was powerful.
If you are looking for a super spicy romance with tangible emotions, I cannot recommend this book enough. This is a story that will stick with you. It is a story that touches your soul and brings new meaning to the state of joy and hope in romance.
