From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author J. Kenner comes a new story in her Stark Ever After series…
Each day with Damien is a miracle, each moment with our children a gift. And yet I cannot escape the growing sense that a storm is gathering, threatening to pull me away, to rip us apart. To drag me down, once again, into a darkness to which I swore never to return.
I have to fight it—I know that. And I am waging the battle with of all my heart. But it is Damien who is my strength, and we both know that the only way to push away the darkness is for him to fold me in his arms and claim me completely. And for me to surrender myself, once again, to the fire that burns between us.

MY THOUGHTS
I have read a few J. Kenner books and I have loved the books I have read but this one is my least favourite. It is well written and I do like the characters but I didn't like this book as much as the other books by this author that I have read so far. I don't know why but I have had to push myself to read this one. Maybe it is because I am in a reading slump.
I give this 3 out of 5.
Excerpt:
I close the door behind me,
intending to return to the bedroom. Instead, I go outside. I pour
another glass from the second bottle Jamie and I opened, then settle
onto the chaise lounge and look up, letting myself get lost in the
stars that blanket the moonless sky.
I don’t hear him, but I know
when Damien steps onto the patio. The scent of him. The subtle shift
in the air, as if Damien Stark truly is the force of nature I
sometimes believe him to be. Mostly, though, I am simply attuned to
him, and he to me. Of course, I know he’s there. Just as I knew
that he would come.
I turn my head and let myself
breathe him in, this man the gods must have made just for me. He’s
strong and powerful and walks with confidence. His strides are long
and straight, and his goal is clear—me.
When he reaches my chaise, he
sits on the edge of it near my hip, then takes my hand in his. I’m
still wearing the bathing suit I put on to lounge with Jamie, covered
by a simple, lacey pull-over. It eased up when I sat, and now
Damien’s slacks brush the bare skin of my thigh, making me
hyperaware of our connection.
Damien lifts our joined hands,
then kisses my knuckles. “Do you want to tell me what’s wrong?”
My eyes dart to his, and I see
both apology and humor reflected on his face. “I think that’s my
line,” I say.
Slowly,
he slips his hand beneath the lace of my cover-up so that his palm
presses against the bare flesh of my lower abdomen, just above my
bikini line. The touch is casual, little more than a place to rest
his hand, and yet the contact sends sparks shooting down through my
core, making my inner thighs tingle and my sex burn hot and needy.
