THE TRUTH ABOUT HIM is Book 2 in the Everything I Left Unsaid series by M. O'Keefe, who is actually Molly O'Keefe. O'Keefe always does a terrific job of writing incredibly angsty books that capture me utterly and wring me out into a crying-yet-happy ball on the floor. I adore her writing! This series under her "M" brand is erotic. And hot diggity, it delivers! Book 1, EVERYTHING I LEFT UNSAID, left us on a major cliffhanger. I was utterly salivating to get my hands on this Book 2 to find out what happens to our intrepid Annie.
Annie has fled an abusive husband, running cross country until she hunkers down in a rundown trailer park with badly dyed hair and only a few bucks to her name. She rents a dilapidated trailer and waits to see if she's been successful in her escape. She discovers an abandoned cell phone in her trailer, and a sexy voice on the other end of the phone (yay, Dylan!) slowly coaxes her over time into enjoying her newly found freedom. Dylan soon entices Annie into acting out her sexual fantasies, and it's so liberating to follow as Annie feels more alive when she pushes herself beyond the limits her mother and husband hemmed her into.
Dylan has his own horrific past that has locked him into isolation, but soon he finds that Annie's lust for life is tempting him into opening up as well. The story is told from alternating his and her points of view. In case you haven't read EVERYTHING I LEFT UNSAID yet, go buy it right now. And you're welcome because I know you'll thank me later. I'm not going to give away what happens at the end of Book 1 to create such a knuckle-biting ending. But THE TRUTH ABOUT HIM begins with a bang, with the tension cranked up so high I couldn't go to sleep until I read enough to see what happened.
Book 2 is less erotica and more romance than Book 1. The feel is definitely different, with more of the focus on emotions, family ties, and love. THE TRUTH ABOUT HIM brings the dark and gritty eroticism from Book 1 into a sweeter, flowering love while maintaining the sensuality and angst of the series. I really hope that O'Keefe continues this series because I see several characters that I'd like to learn more about, and see them get their own oh-so-sexy happily ever after.
For fans of Christina Lauren and Jodi Ellen Malpas comes the
next novel in M. OβKeefeβs breathtakingly sexy series about
a woman called into a journey of the heart, body, and soul.
We played our roles, told each other lies.
But now Dylan is no longer just a mysterious deep voice on
the other end of the line. Weβre face-to-face and our
relationship is very, very real.
We still have secretsβbut so much is crystal clear:
The thrilling danger.
The raw, naked desire.
The need to keep feeling the way he makes me feel. Forever.
Dylan is putting up walls, trying to keep me safe, but he
canβt shut me out. He has seen my darkness and rescued me.
Now itβs my turn, if only he will let me.
