By Her Touch

Blank Canvas Series, Book 2

By: Adriana Anders

Narrated by: Wendy Tremont King

Undercover cop Clay Navarro left the Sultans biker gang a changed man. Its ringleaders may be awaiting trial, but he wears the memory of every brutal act he was forced to commit tattooed across his skin. He doesn't have space in his messed-up life for anything gentle - not now, maybe not ever.

Dr. Georgette Hadley is drawn to the damaged stranger's pain, intimidated but intrigued by the warmth that lies beneath Clay's frightening exterior. But when the Sultans return looking for revenge, she finds herself drawn into the dirty underbelly of a life forged in violence...that not even her touch may be able to heal.

Critic reviews

"Anders has created wonderful variations on the beauty and the beast theme and the damsel-in-distress trope, a greatly tormented hero, and a powerful mix of menace and romance." ( Booklist)

4.5 Stars!

After reading and enjoying the unique story-line in the first book of the series, I was definitely interested in continuing on to this second book. While I liked the first book, this one blew me away. I love the way this author tells a story. Along with all the intricate details and amazing character depth, there was a steadiness in the pacing that kept me invested. In fact, I was emotionally invested from the first few chapters until the sigh-inducing ending. Adriana Anders has delivered a story that is equally intense in its relationships, romance, as well as suspense. I can't wait to see what her creative mind brings to the third book

Loved it!

Loved the story, loved having characters in it from the other book! The narrator was a bit odd sounding, had to use 1.5 speed.

3 stars

I haven't read anything like the heroine's background /past, that was unique. I feel like this book was too long and that some things could have been edited.
