Absolution by Anise Storm & Taylor L. Ray – Review by Dawn Brown

Absolution by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dominic is in love with Juliana when she disappears. Presumed dead, her wealthy father blames Dominic and has him arrested.
Years later, Dominic runs into Juliana, only she claims to be Whitney. Dominic doesn’t know what to believe because she looks exactly like his Juliana. All he knows is he is extremely angry for everything he went through. When Whitney ends up having a special skill that can help him, he must get past the anger at Juliana, even if he still believes the two women are one in the same.
Opinion
This book has some trigger warnings at the beginning for a very good reason. It goes down a rabbit hole so dark that it is not for everyone. If you do not like dark romance (and I do mean dark), this book is not for you.
That having been said, the story was captivating. Following along with Dominic and Whitney/Juliana kept my mind spinning with possibilities of what happened. The book does end in a good light but it did get pretty dark and sketchy for a while.
I will give a warning of my own. This book has a lot of intimate scenes. I would say they happened every two to three chapters, with the first one in the prologue. If that is not your kind of book, this book is not for you. If it is your kind of book, make sure you read it while your partner is in town.
