Storm Clouds and Devastation by Ashley James
4.0
With Storm Clouds and Devastation I feel there is a strong shift in the energy of the Hidden Affairs series. My heart was aching for Bodhi, throughout this whole read. If you struggle with mental health issues I do recommend checking the trigger warnings, because while the topics are dealt in an "elegant" way, they're still explicitly discussed so it might be best to be prepared ahead of time for some. Some parts of this story felt hard to get through because I just wanted to hug Bodhi and tell him how many people he has around loving him, but as someone who struggles with depression myself I feel that those thought patterns were very accurate to my experience.
Jules is, in my honest opinion, the only book boyfriend worthy of the title of Daddy. As someone who cringes HARD whenever that pet name comes up, it almost felt mandatory for Jules to be called Daddy. Because oh boy. Such a strong, patience and vulnerable man. I love how him and Bodhi found each other at two different ends of the tunnel and eventually found their way out together.
While I don't think this is a perfect book (sometimes the spice was a bit too frequent imo, but I expect that with Ashley James books), I don't feel like giving it less than 4 stars as I deeply enjoyed reading.
