Shock has a way of rousing
attention.
It’s official. Pam Godwin has
become one of my go-to authors. I LOVED her previous book, Beneath the
Burn, and was anxious to read her next novel. This did not disappoint. The
premise of the story is unique and very intriguing; there was no way I could
pass it up.
She trained them. She delivered
them. And after?
They were dead to her. They had to
be.
Liv, at first glance, seemed like
complicated character. She’s gritty, badass, and has a don’t-fuck-with-me
attitude. But beneath that armor lays a woman with a simple mission: Keep her
mother and daughter safe. In order to do so, she must play her role as a
deliverer. She hunts, takes, trains and then delivers. That’s the only way to
ensure their safety. So far, she’s been able to live this way, until her next
captive, Joshua Carter, completely changes the game.
He was the strength and heart of
the most dangerous jump. He was the soul of bravery wrapped in chains. He would
never fall, no matter how much metal weighted him down. He was a man who loved
selflessly and honestly, and she was taking him to a monster who would slice
him open and fuck the incision.
Joshua Carter’s life was paved with
rules, religion, and beliefs. He’s the epitome of the good-ole-wholesome boy
next door. To Liv, he met all the requirements the next buyer wanted. She knew
taking Josh was a risk, especially since he was a very well known football
star, but she had no choice.
Josh was tricked and the next thing
he knew, the life he knew was stripped away. He was now in the hands of Liv.
His future unknown. What he didn’t expect is to connect with his beautiful
captor. He knows there’s more to Liv’s story than what she presents. He won’t
make it easy on her and is determined to find the inevitable crack her armor.
Her fingers grabbed the hair on the
back of his head and yanked, exposing his neck. Her lips caressed his ear, and
his penis throbbed. “Stop. Grinding. Your dick.” She released him a shove.
“Kinky fucker.”
Crack.
I was going into this wondering,
“how in the hell is this situation going to work?” It seemed the story was cut
and dry and that both the H/h were stuck between a rock and hard place.
Boy, was I Wrong.
This story had a lot of twists and
surprises. It amazed me that the plot was so mercifully crafted to make this a
very engaging read. I wanted to know how the author was going to make this
situation work. I was constantly on the edge of my seat. I will warn you, there
were a lot of cringe-worthy-creep-the-hell-out-of-me moments (i.e. I
will never look at a potato sack nor a wooden coffin and not be freaked out
ever again), but the story wouldn’t have had the same effect without it. I had
complete faith that Ms. Godwin would deliver a fantastically dark story,
and Deliver she did.
