Blood to Dust by L.J. Shen

5.0

I cannot even begin to write what this book gave to me. Fear, ugliness, angst, sadness, strength, beauty, happiness. Every emotion you can imagine is evoked in the story. Not your typical, alpha male saves girl, LJ Shen provides us with the strongest woman character I have come across. Prescott is full of grit, able to hold her own in any circumstance, and just when you think she has reached her limit, she comes through again. In comes Nate, the only man who brings peace to her storm. This story is not for the light of heart, but if you want a true dark romance, keeping you on the edge of your seat, giving you hot romance and sex, and a story that keeps you reading, this one is for you.

I listened to Michael Pauley provide us with an exceptional narration. He is perfect for the gritty, dark romantic suspense novel, never disappointing me. He is wonderful with accents and brings every emotion to the table so that you feel them right with the character.
