Master of Salt & Bones

Product Information

And though both main characters come with heart shattering stories, Lucians character growth contented me the most because he overcome so much darkness. Their story, a fiery dance, where the flames of fate relentlessly draw them together, left me breathless. It includes some triggers that I feel like I should warn you about: physical, mental and sexual abuse, attempted rape, sadism, violence, paedophilia. If this book was a music sheet, it would be a very complex, dark gothic composition that would render you breathless, as its keys replay in your head, keeping you awake at night. Life wasn't easy on him, brutally scarred and suffering from hallucinations he stays alone, away from endless whispers of people except with his few trusted people.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. It will stay with me for weeks to come, and that, more than anything else, speaks volumes about how much it meant to me.Needing the extra money to not only help her and her aunt, Isa agrees to a job working at the infamous Blackthorne estate despite the warnings. Keri is an amazing storyteller, her writing made me feel everything and the way she was slowly revealing all the secrets about Isa and Lucian kept me so intrigued! THE ROMANCE IN THE FIRST HALF of the book was mostly just sexual tension building between Isa and Lucian. Um encontro entre uma jovem de 19 anos, excluída socialmente, lutadora e com uma história sofrida, com um homem rico, quebrado, de 32 anos visto como um demônio pela sociedade e cheio de mistérios no seu passado.

I don't even know where to start with this review, so I apologize if it's all over the place and a bit long.All that to say, this one is part dark age gap romance, part psychological thriller, especially as the final 15% of the book really ramps up to a different pacing than the previous portion of the book. Temos vários gatilhos e temas sensíveis abordados, leiam com cautela, mas o final não decepciona, com plot twist que vai te surpreender é um final feliz que não é de conto de fadas. Lucian is an enigma; a dangerous, larger than life, sexual and scarred man that had layers you just wanted to rip apart and get inside, and this is exactly where our heroine, Isa comes into play. This is the dangerous combination I truly adore: a gothic mansion made of bones, dark, intense, erotic, horrific, psychological, soul crushing story: Beauty and the beast meets Phantom of the Opera and Jane Eyre!

Oh, and literally nothing happened for the first 40%, and considering that this is one chonky boi (560 pages), it was A LOT and it DRAGGED. Given everything she's been through and all that unfolded, I felt like her character could've been more fleshed out.Besides being an incredibly sexy character with all that dark composure of his, his character was really complex.
