My first Eric LaRocca and I think I'm obsessed with this guy! His books are wild and not for everyone, especially not for the faint of heart. "The only thing more brutal than nature is love." The things that we, and other things in theory, would do for love are wild. Obviously this is horror based, but put yourself in an extreme situation and I'm sure you would do extreme things when it comes to those you love.
