So obviously,
Sarina Bowen could write a tampon ad and I would have to read it. And since she
is one of very few authors who the leading characters gender makes very little
difference even though the m/m genre isn't one I actively search out. And yet
every single one of her books has been such a massive hit for me.
I hadn't
heard of the original version of this book so when I got the opportunity to
read this one I just read the blurb and dove right on in. I was expecting a lot
of angst and heartbreak. I am incredibly happy to say there wasn't a lot of
either and instead I got an absolutely beautiful love story. But in true Sarina
Bowen form it did also include some smoking hot sex scenes.
The book is
told in large sections of alternate point of views continuing on from each
other. But it also includes a lot of background information and the details on
the cult and their lives within it were so detailed I felt like I was there
with them.
I love the
fact that having read the true north series I already knew a little bit about
paradise from Leah and Isaac. And although it had no impact on the story and
wouldn't matter if you hadn't read them it just added a little something to the
story for me.
The
secondary characters in this were as beautiful as the main men and despite the
fact I did shed a few tears this was just an all round sweet story. Caleb and
Josh were the perfect heroes and watching them enter and adapt to a whole new
world had me up to 3am because there was no way I could put the book down.
This is one
of those rare reads where everything worked so perfectly that I want there to
be another ten books in their story just so I can stay with them. Honestly even
if m/m isn't your thing you need to read this book.
