I for one had to take lots of breaks because the material can get really, really heavy. The writing is very good and very effective at sucking readers into very awful places and situations. A reader who has read nothing but Nora Roberts or Carly Phillips, for instance, will surely be very shocked if they jump into this series right away. TEARS OF TESS, QUINTESSENTIALLY Q and TWISTED TOGETHER are definitely not for the weak of heart (and stomach). In my case, I needed a day to recover in-between books! For those who do not regularly read dark romance, give yourself a week or more to finish this series. I've actually had the first two books in this series in my kindle since last year, but it wasn't until last month that I finally, finally read them.Ī reader has to be in the mood for a dark romance and set aside a long reading time for it because stories in this genre can really drain your energy. I normally shy away from dark romances because it always feels like I'm about to take more than I can really handle. This series has definitely tested my limits. A story about finding love in the strangest of places, a will of iron that grows from necessity, and forgiveness that may not be enough.Oh gosh, where to start.
