Night Is Darkest by Jayne Rylon

 

Purchase on Amazon

Let me start this post by saying this book contains adult themes. If you are not into erotica then just keep scrolling. 

Book Description 

Lacey Daughtry’s perfect weekend is interrupted by the tragic news of her brother’s murder in the line of duty. Plagued by a rash of mysterious phone calls, she turns to her brother’s best friends and fellow officers for protection…and comfort.

Spending time in close contact with Mason and Tyler, the two men she’s dreamed of since her first girlhood crush seems like the answer to a prayer. Especially when they begin to explore the desire she’s harbored for so long.

But the partners are holding out on Lacey. Determined to suppress the most extreme facets of their lust, they agree to settle for sharing the woman they crave while concealing their desire for each other. Until Lacey cracks their resolve, unleashing a torrent of emotions that threatens to distract them when they can least afford it.

Their blossoming relationship is complicated by secrets. And the only way to evade the killer threatening their lives is to bare their souls in the darkest hours of the night. Or everything will come crashing down, just before the dawn.

Warning: After reading this book you’ll never look at a pair of hot cops, a cemetery or a can of Spaghetti-O’s the same way again.

My Thoughts

First, let me say I knew going in that this was an erotic novel so I was prepared. I also went in with lower standards as I know most times these books are more about the sex than the storyline. 

That said I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed the storyline. There was a good amount that kept me turning pages. 

I really dug the author delving into each character's grief and that we got a pretty good murder mystery.

Now as \for the Essex part it was good. There was enough sprinkled throughout. It was hot and steamy. 

Overall a good quick read.
