White Rose Painted Red by Elena Lawson
4.0
I went into White Rose Painted Red with zero knowledge of these authors or what to expect. This was a wild ride! This story is a dark and steamy romance with action, trauma, found family, and lots of delicious tension. The story is told from four points of view: Aurora, Seven, Elijah, and Atticus. It all begins with Aurora being on the run. While driving, she ends up hitting a man who was standing in the road. Turns out the guy is Seven, and although he walks away unharmed, his friends (Elijah and Atticus) are not so forgiving. Instead of getting the police involved, Aurora makes a deal to work for them. They will give her a place to stay and pay her well, in exchange for her serving as their maid. What she doesn't know is that there is much more going on with these guys, and things are about to get very interesting for her, real fast.
I am a sucker for morally grey men, and Seven, Elijah, and Atticus gave me all the grey I wanted and more. Seven is unhinged, but he is also quite charming. I easily fell for him. Elijah also has my heart. He is damaged and soft-spoken, but has a presence that demands attention. Atticus has a very hard exterior and is ex-military. I'm still upset with him, so he'll have to work hard to earn my love. They all had very different relationships with Aurora. Seven, Elijah, Atticus, and Aurora's story had me locked in. The danger, revenge plan, and secrets had me on the edge of my seat. Their story ends with a cliffhanger, and I am excited to see what happens next. Aurora is on a journey to take back her life, so these men better be ready.
Narration:
The audiobook is performed by Lessa Lamb, Grayson Owens, Sean Masters, and Devon Ryder. These amazing voice actors did a wonderful job with this story. Everyone fully embodied the characters and brought them to life. Their performances easily transported me into the world created by the authors, and I didn't want to leave.
