Tears of an Orphan by Mikel Wilson
5.0
Tears of an Orphan by Mikel Wilson is a short bonus story that was released in advance of the highly anticipated Ground of Blood, book 3 of the Rise of the Dreads (ROTD) multi-author series, which I also strongly recommend to those who love dark, romance, twisty, and spice!
This book is at once a hauntingly sad but hopeful at times narrative of a young man having lived in an abusive orphanage for 15 years until the day he is suddenly thrown out on the streets. His innocence of the outside world is charming and at times comical, but above all Damien's journey really shows the good and ugly of humanity.
This is the first book I have read by Mikel Wilson, and having started the ROTD series, this was a fun surprise and I am now ordering his backlist, love his writing. A quick punch, Tears of an Orphan has resonated with me and will linger long past the final page read.
