Summary:

For fractured souls are like magnets.
Drawn to collide into an impossible bliss…”

Labeled a ‘Cursed’ woman of Eve from birth, Maddie has endured nothing but pain and repression at the hands of The Order’s most abusive elder, Moses. Now living with her sister in The Hangmen’s secluded compound, finally, Maddie, is free. Free from the suffocating faith she no longer believes in. Free from endless years of physical and mental torment.

Just… free…

At age twenty-one, the timid and shy Maddie is content to live within the confines of her new home—safe from the outside world, safe from harm and, strangely, protected by the Hangmen’s most volatile member; the heavily pierced and tattooed, Flame.

Flame.

The man who ceaselessly watches over her with his midnight dark and searing eyes. The man who protects her with a breath-taking intensity. And the man who stirs something deep within her numbed heart.

But when circumstances conspire for Flame to need HER help, Maddie bravely risks it all for the broken man who has captivated her fragile soul.

The Hangmen’s most infamous member, Flame, is ruled by one thing—anger. Plagued by haunting demons from his past, an all-consuming rage, and isolated by an abhorrent hatred of being touched, Flame’s days are filled with suffocating darkness, pierced only by a single ray of light—Maddie. The shy, beautiful woman he cannot purge from his thoughts. The woman he has an overwhelming need to possess…
… the only person who has ever been able to touch him.

Flame’s mission in life is to protect Maddie, to keep her safe. Until a trigger from his troubled past sends him spiraling into madness, trapping him in the deepest recesses of his disturbed mind.

His Hangmen brothers fear that Flame is beyond saving.

His only hope of salvation: Maddie and her healing light.

 

My Thoughts:

Flame, Flame, Flame  I absolutely loved your story. Your story is so full of heartache and remorse that I wanted to reach into the book and hug you. I think that out Styx, Ky and now Flame this one is the most heart breaking. I think I’m in for an emotional ride with this series.

When I was first introduced to Flame in the first book I KNEW that I need to read his story I needed to know what happened to him to know why he did what he did and why he was more violent then the others. He was also not able to have any one touch him in anyway, because he can’t stand it. The only people that can are some of his brothers in the Hangman. Until Maddie came along.

Maddie is Mae’s sister an we see her in the previous books and reading her story is truly heart breaking. I got teared up a few times. The things that happen to her are unruly. She is also like Flame because she can’t stand the thought of being touched. She does dream of Flame touching her with the simple act of just holding her hand. She also drew pictures that Flame had seen and his reaction was the sweetest.

With Flame and Maddie’s back story’s that we learn about they both defiantly went to hell and back. But they were able to help one another to get over their demons. and have a happy ending.
