Hidden in Darkness: In Darkness Series, Book 1

If you like murder mysteries and fast moving stories full of action and steam, this might be right up your alley. The characters were distinctly crafted and the story has lots of twists and turns. The overblown sexy verbiage at times threw me out of the story as it didn’t seem real. But fortunately the characters and the story offset it sufficiently for me. I did skip ahead a few times when the sexy times got too… well, don’t get me wrong. I appreciate a well written sex scene that also propels the story. These bits did that to a point… but often it felt like thinly veiled hetero sex and it just didn’t ring true. Which was distracting. But again, the rest was strong enough that I did enjoy the book.

* * * * *

When Felix is hired to take care of a recently blinded man, he thinks his life might finally be turning around. It has to be better than where he came from, but he has no idea what he’s signed up for.

Lane is depressed, rude, and difficult to be around. It doesn’t help that Felix is clearly not qualified for the job, especially since he can’t even make oatmeal right. But Felix is trying to make his life better, so he’ll put up with the man even if it requires some unconventional methods.

Felix’s humor soon pulls Lane out of his depression, and Felix feels like things are finally going right in his life. That is, until he’s attacked by someone who wants to keep Lane quiet. It’s clear that Lane isn’t who he’s pretending to be, and Felix should probably walk away. But Felix has finally found a place where he belongs and he’s willing to go to great lengths to stay by Lane’s side. Even if it involves kidnapping, stealing, and Felix’s overwhelmingly bad ideas, Felix will do just about anything because Lane is there for him unlike anyone else has ever been.

Felix might be out of his element, but one thing he is sure about is that he doesn’t want to leave Lane… even if it costs him his life.

Hidden in Darkness is 90k words of snark, car chases, and morally questionable choices.

The Purple Fantastic Steam Rating gives this a 4 out of 5. This book is steamy. You can read more about the Steam Ratings on the About Page.
