AFTER DARK
M. Pierce

Reviewed by Annie Tegelan
Posted March 22, 2015

Romance Contemporary

Passion and frustration collide in the final installment to M. Pierce's Night Owl Trilogy. AFTER DARK contains the same antics as the previous books in the series but readers will get a deeper, darker look inside Matt Sky.

Life seems to be going well after the return of Matt after his disappearance. So well that Matt and Hannah plan to tie the knot. Though the proposal is rather rushed and unexpected, it's clear that these two really care for each other, even though a lot of the time they are confused about what they want.

In AFTER DARK, Pierce delves deeper into Matt's desires while also addressing the consequences of the events in the previous books and wraps things up in a neat little bow. Or as neat as Matt will allow it! Brimming with drama and angst, M. Pierce is the master at creating flawed and complex characters.

SUMMARY

In the final novel of the Night Owl Trilogy from bestselling author M. Pierce, can a passion that has withstood many ordeals become a love strong enough to last a lifetime? At twenty-nine, Matt Sky is trying to return to normal, having faked his death and come back to life. He and Hannah move to a simple house in the suburbs, and strive to grow their relationship into something durable and honest. They become more and more entangled, in the best ways possible. At twenty-eight, Hannah finally has the life she's always wanted: she's pursuing her career as a literary agent at Granite Wing Agency, she is writing her first solo novel, and she is living with her hot, passionate lover. For the first time, Matt and Hannah are able to explore intimacy without inhibitions—without lies, secrets, or jealousy—and the results are explosive. Still life together is not as easy as it seems. Matt is estranged from his brothers in the wake of his cruel stunt; Seth Sky, embittered by his failed pursuit of Hannah, makes a play for Hannah's sister; and the topic of Hannah's novel—her relationship with Matt and the Sky family—is driving a wedge between her and Matt. The lovers are devoted to one another, having come through many ordeals, but is their bond strong enough to last a lifetime?
