*****E-arc provided by author in exchange for an honest review*****
Well I can confirm that this is at the steamiest end of Rebekah Weatherspoon's writing. I couldn't read this on the train because it made me blush so much! This is a romantic suspense, with an exploration of grief and loss and some very complicated feelings I was a little sceptical about how the central relationship was going to work out, because their meeting is grounded in shared trauma, but actually Weatherspoon does this very carefully. I liked Brooklyn as a heroine, but I really loved Vaughn and Shaw and their relationship. I thought the relationship between the three of them developed and evolved really cleverly, so that you can see that Brooklyn has power and control and is giving consent. My only criticism is that I thought that the ending wrapped up a little too quickly - at 80% read I was wondering if I'd missed a memo and this was actually the first part of a series where it would only resolve itself happily and finally at the end.
If you've only read Weatherspoon's A Cowboy to Remember, maybe work up to this with Xeni - unless you're used to reading menage, BDSM, polyamory romances.
