Beautiful Nightmare
by Giana Darling
“I’d fight anyone and anything, even my baser instincts and cruel inclinations, to keep Bianca with me forever. Not just keep her, but love her. Cherish her. Bring her as much peace and joy as I knew she was capable of giving me.”
Book 2 in the Dark Dream duet did not disappoint. The first book was a lot of relationship develop, angst, hatred, and overall slow burn. This book we finally see the walls get knocked down and the real feelings come out.
Tiernan Morelli finally has the family he has always wanted when he becomes guardian of Bianca and Brandon Belcante. After being so guarded and callous with Bianca in the first book, he is finally ready to completely let her in. His previous history of secrets and betrayal have Bianca keeping her distance, which Tiernan is having none of. He wants her back where she belongs and is ready to prove is to her. Both Bianca and Tiernan have to deal with their individual family’s past and how it affects their future, both alone and together. Their relationship is powerful and intense, just like them.
Bianca using her new housing situation to focus on finding out the truth about her family and coming to terms with how much has changed in her life. Tiernan has his own family issues that he struggles with and keeps him so untrustworthy. When members of his family are reappearing, he has to decide who he wants to rekindle a relationship with and who he wants to suffer for his past. He has been through so much from childhood into adulthood and it has affected his relationships with everyone in his life. Both of them have to confront their past and discover the truth.
Right away we get to see how Tiernan truly feels for Bianca now that he has realized his true feelings for her. Giana Darling did what she does best in this book. She wrote an overprotective, ruthless, and cunning man that is such a softie for their girl. Tiernan is so cold, but melts for Bianca. I fell in love with how much he cared for her and her brother, as well as his friends. He would truly burn the world down for the people he lets in to his small circle.
Bianca holds her own against Tiernan, even with their age gap. She has already gone through so much in her young life and continues to go through even more in this book. She is independent, smart and willing to do whatever she needs to get the answers she wants. Bianca is still coping with so many life changes and has to decide what is truth with her family life. The people she has to get close to are just as cunning and it all leads to a breaking point.
This book has a lot of action and drama besides the romance aspect. The main characters actually spend a decent amount of time apart in the book, but everything they do individually impacts the other. There is a whole realm of stories about the Constantine and the Morelli families in the Midnight Dynasty world by several authors. This story involved both families and reveals more about their unique family dynamics.
