** This is one of my OLDER reviews**
War has taken everything from me. My family. My home. My innocence. In a country blasted by war and wracked by economic hardship, a young orphan girl like me has very few options when it comes to survival. Thus, I do what I must to live, to eat, and I try very hard to not consider the cost to my soul. My heart is empty, and my existence brutal.
The one impossibility in my life is love.
And then I meet HIM.
War is hell. It takes a chunk out of a man's very soul to do the kinds of things war demands of you. You live with fear, you live with guilt, and you live with nightmares. If you haven't been through it, there's no understanding it. War leaves no room for love, no room for tenderness or softness. You gotta be hard, closed off, and ready to fight every moment of every day. Lose focus for a split second, and you're dead.
Now the only thing that can save me is HER
This book is unlike Jasinda’s other stories. This one is DARK , TWISTED, and VIOLENT… YET….BEAUTIFUL, SENSUAL, and INTENSE. I loved the way she gets so INSIDE the characters head. The way Jasinda lets the readers inside of Rania’s head lets them FEEL and UNDERSTAND more of who she is ? why she has done what she’s done? The way Jasinda tell’s Rania’s point of view it’s as if you ARE Rania. You feel her emotions. She does the same for Hunter. Hunter has had a troubled past and is just looking to move on with his life. He didn’t count on falling for one of the local girls. Jasinda does the same with Hunters point of view. She lets us in on EVERY aspect of his pain, emotional ties and the journey of trying to resist Rania. There story had me all over the place emotional wise. I felt sorrow, pain, love, angst, and romance. I was SURPRISED by reading this. I was not expecting to like it as well as I did. It started off slowly but after Rania and Hunter finally meet…..it held my attention through out to the end….GREAT JOB ON THIS JASINDA !
