Afflicted Love (Rhythm & Heart Series) by Autumn Sand – Review by Shea Gilkerson 5/7/23

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

This book was SO GOOD. Hunger, anger, desperation, love, hate…there is a crazy range of emotion and attention to detail in a book that only took me an hour and a half to read!

Lyle and Kyle both grew up in a very slummy trailer park with very desperate lives. Kyle was the son of an addict who wasn’t afraid to utilize whatever he had to in order to get his next fix. Lyle was the son of a drunkard and abuser, but his wonderful mom gave all she could to protect him. Lyle was small, from malnutrition mostly. One day while the neighborhood kids were bullying him, Kyle stepped in and protected him and they became as close as brothers from that day forward. Lyle’s wonderful Mom, Karise, welcomed Kyle with open arms and gave him the first experience of real, genuine love and affection he had ever had.

Kyle and Lyle got out and never looked back, but never admitted to one another how much they lived and breathed for the other. When they became estranged, neither either expected to see the other or have to rehash their feelings again. Until a death in the family brings them back together, and back home, and the time comes to face each other.

I cannot do justice to this intense and fast burning story. Impatiently waiting for the next addition to the series.
