Review: Heal

Heal by Piper Scott
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story is intense, heartbreaking at times and so emotional. Much more so than the previous stories in this series. Reading this takes your feelings through the wringer. You hurt for Gabriel and what he’s gone through. He’s been so mentally and physically beat down, so brainwashed, he doesn’t realize that the man he thought he loved was really his pimp. One who never loved him, but played his emotions to control him. As you read, you keep hoping that Gabriel will allow himself to heal, that he lets the love of those surrounding him support him. You want to reach into the story and hug and hold him.

Cedric is a professional Dom. He can give a submissive everything he needs but his heart and love. In many ways, things from his past have made him almost as broken as Gabriel.

The journey that Cedric and Gabriel take in this story is so well written. The author has dealt with a very serious subject matters, human trafficking, and the sex trade industry, but written it in such a way you understand the pain and devastation caused by them without either overwhelming the story. I could not put this story down.

This is book four in this series, I don’t feel that it’s a standalone story. I think you should read the previous three books to set up the world these characters inhabit. And for you as the reader to understand the relationships that have developed between the characters that show up in this story. I can’t wait for the next book by this author.
