Follow Me Darkly by Helen Hardt

4.0

When a farm girl from Kansas meets a self-made billionaire from Boston, the attraction is swift and the rules are made to be broken.

Skye Manning is a strong woman in control and lives by her own code. She is biding her time as a social media influencer and personal assistant to a vapid and self-important heiress until she can work full time on her photography. In walks the commanding and seductive Braden Black, self-made billionaire, and Skye's control starts to crumble along with her heart. But Braden has a secret past and people are warning her to be careful. Will his past destroy her?

Skye and Braden have a very provocative and carnal relationship with lots of erotic sex, but little else. I felt that Skye needs to stick to her guns and not totally lose herself in his demanding broody darkness. He's hiding something important enough that others have warned her about him. As for Braden, he definitely has some issues, but I see bits of compassion and kindness in him.  Though the book ends with hope for their relationship, a lot of things need to get resolved and I get a sinking feeling that they are heading for heartache as the series continues.

Overall, this is an alluring & sensual billionaire erotic romance with angst, lots of hot sex, and dark secrets. If you enjoy the jealous and possessive hero type, with a strong heroine who constantly challenges him in and outside the bedroom, give this book a try.

Thank you to Ms. Hardt and Entangled Publishing for giving me the opportunity to read this book with no expectation of a positive review.
