Corrupted by Alexis Noelle

1. Do not think about this, if you are at all worried about triggers, then really you need to stop reading now – this is not for you.

On the run searching for both solitude and safety are words that no-one should ever utter in the same sentence but when they are in reference to a child, the abhorrence of the situation is magnified to a level that is beyond comprehension.

But those words are the reality that Lucy faced, the uncertainty of the street was far more appealing that the certain torment she knew she faced every day at home. Escaping the never ending misery that she endured at the hands of those that were supposed to love and protect her was her only option and to that end she did what she had to do and she took off.

With no place to go and no money to survive on, she took shelter in what she thought was an abandoned warehouse.

When she is found she is left with little option but to literally beg Jordan to take her with him, to protect her so to speak from the danger that she knows will be hot on her tail.

But can he, can he protect her, well that is the task that is issued to him and all the while he has been warned that she, is off limits to him no matter how much the guys can see he wants her.

They both have a ton of growing up to do, but she is a child and those that are now swore to protect her are mindful of that fact.

Could her saving grace come in the shape of a MC prospect with his own share of problems? Only time will tell.

Lucy’s life was a car wreck of the highest order and it was a tough one to read but it was one that didn’t pull any punches, but could she balance what she was experiencing now, with a group of people who considered her family and were willing to do whatever they had to in order to protect her, with the past that she had endured and the emotions that had been indoctrinated.

Lucy almost broke me, I didn’t think I could read anymore of her pain, it was too traumatic, but I was lifted by the strides she took to become a stronger woman, she faced her inner demons and while she may not have completely conquered them she was working on it and more than a match for them when they threatened her sanity.

Some of the situations that were described had me shaking my head in complete disbelief, they were brutal. But for me I would not pencil this was being a gratuitously explicit novel, it was emotionally explicit and it was brutally graphic, I will give you that but it was with reason and moreover with explanation and both of those points helped me to understand the gravity of both the situation and its consequences.

This isn’t ever going to be everyone’s cup of tea, we all know that but for those of us that enjoy a book with a little less sugar coating and like to have something that is going to shake us to the core every now and then, then this is one that you will be hard pressed to forget in a while.

From the mind of an author who is certainly more gifted than anyone individual should ever be allowed to be, this was a book that was too good to put down, too intense to ever forget and to brutal to ever forgive…this is will make you think and that is never a bad thing!
