Bravey's Sin by Mari Carr and Lila Dubois releasing October 29, 2019

5 stars

Oh, this is a hard one to review. It was action packed, it had twists and turns, a forbidden, doomed affair, and was a romantic suspense of the highest calibre. Nyx and Grigoris have so much to do, are so close to figuring it all out, if they can stay out of harm’s way. Secrets, lies, and histories are revealed, giving way to present circumstances. Danger is everywhere, unknown foes and enemies at every turn. Yet, the fragility of humans and their emotions is the running thread. The joy, the pain, the worry, the love, we feel for our fellow beings, strokes and envelopes you as the story unfolds

I sit her bleary eyed and stuffed up from crying, and yet, I’m hopeful for the future in this series for the characters. The mantra of no, no, no, no, it can’t be, hit me about 54% of the way in, and coloured everything after that. Have the tissues ready, there is no way around it. Even when things made me smile, it was a constant there in the background. It causes so much, and a couple things made me flinch and grimace, but they made sense in the face of this tragedy. They made sense in the face of the hope needed. They made sense in love, sexual and friendship, that caused the pain, and the healing, needed

This is a hard book to review because it will linger and stay with me. It caused so many emotions, and the happily ever after was fought for so hard, and that too, causes a flood of emotions. I loved this book, this story, these characters, and because of that, it caused me to feel what they were feeling. That is the litmus test of an amazing story, and this passed with flying colours
