Kylie comes from an abusive past but longs to be with Jensen. Only one big problem stands in her way. Could she be with a man like Jensen? Could Kylie ever be in a relationship that contains elements of dominance? Can Jensen and Kylie find some even ground and grab for their happy ending?  Love has a funny way of finding those it deems worthy now Kylie and Jensen have to make some hard decisions and follow their hearts.

I enjoyed Kylie and Jensen’s story, the love and trust that the two develop shines through in everything that they do. Jensen shows Kylie just how much he trusts her and loves her, giving her a chance to be in control for once.  It was nice to see Kylie begin to find herself as well as enjoy her own wants and needs. Both are dealing with so much pain in their pasts. It was nice to see the two find solace in each other and begin to heal.

Emotions are strong and as hot as these two are as a couple the romance between them was beautiful.  Kylie is stronger than she thinks and I enjoyed watching Jensen show her just how strong he thinks she is. The two make a great couple. Making this a nice continuation to the world Maya Banks has built in this series. This is book two in this trilogy and for a better understanding and enjoyment of this world these books should be read in order.

This is an objective review and not an endorsement of this book.
