Review:
It was a hell of ride, this book. It doesn't stick to the cliches and that is what I liked the most about this book. The good guys aren't all saintly good and the bad guys aren't all devilishly bad. Those who we think are weak can actually turn out to be the strongest among us. The characters in this book will certainly take you for a spin. In addition, the plot is interesting. It reveals how those who are supposed to uphold the law and protect others can be corrupt. How sometimes playing by the rules isn't the only or the best option. I loved the character of Black Love. Odd name but interesting protagonist. He is someone you would like to root for.
The only thing I can nit pick about in this book is the narration. It felt a bit strange for the genre. But it was a very personal choice and I am sure there are readers who can appreciate it more than I.
Teresa Prince, a small town girl with a big
heart, had dreams of working in law enforcement her goals put on pause in the
worse way possible. Will she overcome this tragedy and emerge triumphant with
her mind and soul intact? Or will the mental anguish be too much for her to
bare?
James, a twisted soul with ideas of love and grandeur with a woman that doesn’t feel the same for him, at least not yet. That will all change if he has anything to do with it. Also, her old flame has stepped into the picture. Will James be able to win her over and make her the love of his life before the flame is rekindled between her and her ex? Or will he be left in the cold while they live happily-ever-after?
Black Love was always a white collar kind of guy more so than a gangster when an unfortunate incident occurs in a small town in Illinois he rushes to the side of his ex-fiancé to attempt to save the day. It does not take long to figure out that not everyone wants to see justice served. On top of that, his feelings for his past love may not only cause conflicts in the case but also add a rift to his new relationship. Will Black put his past behind him and find out who violated Teresa?
In this fast-paced tale of pain, misguided passion, and lost love we follow these three souls as they embark on a journey of romance, rape, and retribution. When there’s no one to count on but yourself will you stand and deliver? Or bend and break? Each will face that question in the midst of what they once thought was true. They all find out that when love turns to war, someone has to be the Piece Keeper!
