Synopsis
An escape plan foiled….
A determined woman….
One last tiny sliver of hope….
Jack will find me.
The Fed wants answers. And Caroline is determined not to provide them. They pull out all the stops, testing her sanity, testing her strength, testing her humanity.
Jack will find me.
Subject to cruel and merciless treatment at the hands of a government she once trusted, Caroline clings to her sole lifeline, her only chance at maintaining her tenuous hold on reality: her memories of her husband, Jack, her children, Marguerite and Sophie, and the friends who mean the world to her.
Jack will find me.
But what happens when hope starts to fade? How long until her interrogators cross over into the unspeakable sadism she fears ? How long before she finally breaks apart?
Part Two of a Six Part Saga. Conscience (approximately 120,000 words) is not a standalone and must be read after the first book in the Bellator Saga, Dissident. All books in the series end in a cliffhanger. For readers 18+. This book contains adult situations including graphic violence, explicit (consensual) sex and light BDSM, psychological and physical trauma, and an oftentimes raw, dark, and gritty plot.
My Thoughts - Story
Ok…so I can’t get over that cliffhanger and wondering what the hell is going to happen next! I have so many different scenarios running through my mind…especially one that I hope and pray isn’t what is going to happen.
This book has it ALL and I mean it when I say that it has steamy sex, the cries, love, romance, thrills, and so much more.
Ms. London does a kick ass job unfolding this story of Jack and Caroline…I can’t say enough about this series and please…don’t pass this one up!
Re-Cap
Too much is going on for me to give you a recap and I don’t want to spoil the first book if you haven’t read it or accidentally reveal something from this one…
Just note that this book starts where the first one ended and we learn more and more about what is going on in America and how the political parties are starting to unravel. It bounces back and forth from the past to the present and we get a deeper understanding of the love between Jack and Caroline.
The present catches up and it’s heart stopping, emotional and suspenseful ---- I found myself constantly tearing up at the end of this…nope…can’t go there without giving the story away.
