I've read the first book probably a year ago, and I decided to continue because I'm intrigued with the characters and the story. If you are into Dark Adult Romance novels, you might probably try this trilogy because the writing style is captivating and beautiful and it's better than Fifty Shades of Grey. This book might make you cringe because it contains violence, gore, abuse and explicit content. 
 Tess Snow has been kidnapped again by the sex traffickers who used to torture her before she was sold to Q. Red Wolverine used her as a bait against Q. She was drugged and forced to torture women against her will until she lose herself, lose her feelings, and lose the pleasure of pain. It is her worst nightmare and she doesn't know if she can return to her old self. 
 Q became frantic when he found out Tess has been captured under his supervision. He vowed to protect Tess, yet failed her. She was his life, afraid she will return in his arms vulnerable, broken and not the Fighter Tess he knew and loved. He tamed, cared and put his life on line for his esclave for the sake of bringing her back. For him, she was it and he'll not let her walk away again. 
 I'm surprised and impressed on this book because it's more intense, more complicated and darker than I've expected. It's totally out of my comfort zone and it kind of scared me. I don't know how Pepper Winters make such stories like this scary and beautiful at the same time. Jeez. These characters are not your ordinary couple, they are ridiculously eff'd up. (view spoiler)[Sadistic eff'd ups. (hide spoiler)] Anyways, I'm going to read the final book and hopefully Tess and Q fixed their shizzums.
