Forsaken by B.B. Hamel, Willow Winters
5.0
Emotionally gripping, dark and all-consuming.
This is my first book by BB Hamel, but not my first for Willow Winters. Willow is one of my all-time favorites so I knew I would love this. I'm intrigued to see what else BB writes because if it is anything like this I know I will love it.
This is a prime example of why I love dark romances. They grab at your emotions on a deeper level and have your mind ticking like a time bomb and this book did just that for me. It's a mafia romance. Both main characters are damaged beyond belief so it seems. One is a hitman and the other is about to become a sex slave, but her damage was done years ago. Gio is a train to be a hitman and never thought he would fall in love with the woman who became his sex slave. Gio wasn't really the type to fall in love. So I thought. Oh, I was wrong! He was obsessed with this woman and he wasn't giving her up for anything.
What unfolds between these pages took me on a ride of my life. Dark, twisted, all-consuming, emotional, and just completely mind f*cking. My head was spinning and my reeling with so many questions. I wasn't a fan of Gio at first. The way he was with Grace, but as the characters developed and their connection strengthened throughout the book. I couldn't help but fall in love with him and Grace together and well I was completely addicted to all things Gio by the end. Anti-hero type, broken and damaged? Yes, please!
If you like getting your feelings and mind f*cked then this book is perfect for you! I couldn't get enough!
5 Stars aren't enough for this emotionally gripping story!
