Abby Merkley has been a member of the Church of the Apocalyptic Faith since she was a child, and there's no way out...until her darkly handsome, brooding neighbor defies the rules and takes her into the safety of his arms.

He should frighten her, but everything inside Abby thrills at Luc Stanek's rough manners and shockingly gentle touch. He excites her, ignites her, leaves her shaken and wanting more. But evil men follow in her footsteps, and it may take more than one fierce beauty to defend her loving beast

Review:

Author Adriana Anders is a force to be reckoned with.  I don’t think there’s a romance novel out there that has moved me as much as those in her Blank Canvas series.  Every novel rips a hole in my chest that is so deep and painful I wonder if I’ll ever feel whole again, but thankfully Ms. Anders knows how to write an ending so full of love and warmth that you forget the pain and are more than willing to subject yourself to it over and over again.

Adriana Anders writes some of the darkest, most passionate romance novels you’ll ever have the intense pleasure of reading.  Her stories are unique, captivating and utterly romantic in a way which no other romance novel can compare.  In His Hands gives you moments of torment and desperation intermingled with heart-wrenching scenes of open and honest love between two exceptional characters, Luc and Abby.

Luc and Abby, much like the characters of her previous novels, are special.  How can they not be?  Ms. Anders has a wicked talent for creating characters who are so wacky and beautiful and vulnerable that you simply cannot help but fall in love with them.  They're so different from one another and their pasts are so complicated.  They shouldn’t work together, as a pair, but Adriana Anders makes us believe that the romance between them is more than possible, it's inevitable.

Reading In His Hands, the third book in the Blank Canvas series, you can almost imagine you’ve fallen into a modern fairy tale with elaborate scenery and lively characters, some of whom you’ve seen in previous novels (if you’re already a fan of her works). Her writing is poetic; so rhythmic and beautifully worded that you often forget to breathe.

This series is perfect for those who like their romance novels with a little more… everything.  More drama, more chaos, more danger, more sex.  You won’t be disappointed by what you find between these pages.  In His Hands doesn’t come out until August 1, 2017, but that gives you more than enough time to read up on the first two in the series Under Her Skin and By Her Touch.

Please pick up, or download, this series.  In fact, to entice you further you should know that the first book is available on Kindle for only $1.88 right here.
