Thank you Leo F!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>The review:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I melted the moment Jason found himself back in Aaron&#8217;s arms. The author really has a knack for making you feel the warmth, emotion, and lust between the lead lovers. I was surprised, then, when the novel took a darker turn. But then I was hooked, because while the first book painted such a loving, passionate, happy picture of jarhead meets jock, this book took me to a much deeper place as suspenseful as it is erotic.<\/p>\n<p>The sex scenes don&#8217;t disappoint. In fact, they are even edgier than before, caught between the ecstasy of unbridled bliss and a gut-wrenching struggle to survive. The medical details and intense description of what is happening put a razor&#8217;s edge on a plot that strikes like lightning when you least expect it. It&#8217;s titillation mixed with trauma and true love&#8217;s kiss at the bottom of the foxhole. There&#8217;s even a twisted scene that caught me off guard &#8211; it&#8217;s unforgettable and left me hard as a rock.<\/p>\n<p>All I can say is get ready for the ride of your life. From an author that really knows how to play your heartstrings and make you believe in love again, I was taken to places I totally didn&#8217;t expect not only through shocking plot twists, but also when romance is found in the tender moments you wouldn&#8217;t expect. Get this book! And if you didn&#8217;t read the first one (From Lightning to Love), I&#8217;d definitely recommend reading it first &#8211; it will only heighten the shock and awe when you get to this one.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Leo F.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m so excited to share this review of my newest novel,\u00a0Lightning&#8217;s Hidden Menace, with you.
