I was blindsided by how much I enjoyed this suspenseful, heart pounding tale of two people and their desire to find peace in the chaos, fulfillment in the emptiness of their pain and resolution so that they could move forward together. There was no staying away from this story. It was brilliantly written, breathtaking and exciting. This is a fantasy unlike any that I have read in a very long time. Their story, their coming together so enthralled and captured me. The emotions between these two are so real, so heartbreakingly close to the surface. I saw Abigail trying to get through the day, faking her way through her life until she could finally feel something. Abigail is fragile and torn a part after her image of love and family was scattered into a million pieces. He’s never been able to let go of the past, and he has the scars on the outside to prove it. Leo is big, tatted… just a beautiful man wanting to take care of his son, his sister and his business. A chance meeting online with Abigail will change the course of his life in ways that he never dreamed. A past filled with angry unanswered questions has made him so. Leo, the Phoenix, is a single father with a child that refuses to speak after the loss of his mother, a brother who is a thorn in his side and a demon inside him. Abigail believes that until she has the wish fulfilled she can’t move forward and sets a plan in motion to make her nightmare a reality.
Abigail ran from the pain of her past but has always dreamed that she is being chased by the dark monster, one who uses her for his own dark desires once she is caught. Both have an empty place in their hearts that can only seem to be filled by fulfilling their darkest needs. Leo and Abigail both have a past filled with horrible losses.
I chose to fall in with my mind and heart wide open, both feet totally jumping in for one of the best reads of the year.
This book will either draw you in completely or have you running as far away as possible. Leo and Abigail’s tale is not one for the faint of heart. Bait had me turned around, flabbergasted and craving more with each turn of the page. But with this story, she has truly shown some incredible talent. Jade has written some of the dirtiest, kinkiest books I have ever read. There was no putting this down once I started.
