I know I am a reader who likes to throw out stars for books like they are party favors but if a book moves me, if it makes me feel the emotions as deeply as the characters I have no problem doing that. I have no shame and though I now have mini piles on my desk it was worth it. I got to work and instead of doing what I had planned, I opened my Nook and openly read at my desk so lost in this story that I did nothing but read all day. They had consumed me, again, just from the prologue. I thought about them as I got my boys ready for school and me for work.
I wanted to keep reading to find out more but I forced myself to go to bed and ended up laying awake for two hours thinking about that prologue and when I finally dozed off I dreamt of paper tattooed covered walls. It hit me that hard and had me buzzed with crazy anticipation. Got out of bed and paced the landing outside my bedroom door so I didn’t wake my husband. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? I literally said that out loud. That peek turned into me reading the prologue and being blown away. I can’t tell you when or why I bought Slide but I decided to open it up and take a peek. I put that book away and starting scrolling through my Nook for something else. So…the other night I was attempting to read a book but I was really antsy. Betrayal, secrets, and lies unfold, and when a devastating coincidence takes hold, Pete must fight with all he has to save the love of his life. Traumatic events in Pete’s work life distance him from home, and he doesn’t realize until it’s too late that Ash has slipped away.
But fate is a cruel, cruel mistress, and when nightmares collide with the present, their tentatively built world comes crashing down.
Years of neglect, drug abuse, and life on the streets have taken their toll, and sometimes it seems the deep, unspoken bond with his lover is the only balm for wounds he doesn’t quite understand.Ĭhicago paramedic Pete is warmth, love, and strength-things Ash never knew he could have, and never even knew he wanted until Pete showed him. Shy tattoo artist Ash has a troubled past.
