Afflicted Love (Rhythm & Heart Series) by Autumn Sand – Review by Angela Shirley

Afflicted Love by Autumn Sand
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Kyle was always a loner, hiding in the shadows when the other boys played until one night seeing the bullies push around the younger kid he felt a protection to save the boy. When he came out of his hiding place and stood up for that sweet little boy his whole world turn on its axis and nothing would be the same.

Lyle had a protector, someone who would not let anything bad happen to him, seeing that Kyle had no where to go he invited him back home where his family adopted him, but although Kyle left one abusive family he was plunged into another one but he had a purpose to protect Lyle and his mother.

Until that faithfully night when the world changed and Lyle and Kyle got plunged into world of Love and heartbreak.

For such a short book it certainly packs a punch. I have to say there are alot of triggers in this book regarding abuse and although harrowing to read this adds an add depth to the characters to show they have overcome or trying to overcome the past. The relationship between the main characters is a heartfelt journey of forbidden love, jealous and utter heartbreak which will have you just in bits about.

The story was well written and although complex at times draws you in from the first word to the end, I can’t wait to read the next book as you left us hanging there Ms Sand and am on the edge of my seat to see what happens.

Thank you for such a brilliant book.
