He was an artist. She was his muse.
To everyone in town, Abel Adams was the devil's spawn, a boy who never should have been born. A monster.
To twelve year-old Evie Hart, he was just a boy with golden hair, soft t-shirts and a camera. A boy who loved taking her picture and sneaking her chocolates before dinner. A boy who made her feel special.
Despite her family's warnings, she loved him in secret for six years. They met in empty classrooms and kissed in darkened church closets. Until they couldn't.
Until the time came to choose between love and family, and Evie chose Abel.
Because their love was worth the risk. Their love was the stuff of legend.
But the thing about legends is that they are cautionary tales. They are made of choices and mistakes. And for Abel and Evie, the artist and the muse, those mistakes come in the form of lights, camera, sex.
NOTE: This is NOT a paranormal or a priest romance.

I
struggled, hard, with how to rate this book. I have this mantra I repeat a lot
since I read thrillers, horror, psychological, romance, romantic suspense… ok,
I’ll read anything. I love fiction stories. I love reading books that are
purely fantasy and while they COULD happen, this story is an account made up
from the authors mind. So when reminding myself of that, I’ll go with a 4 star
rating.
I
liked the story, I liked it a ton! I mean girl falls for not just a bad boy but
a “monster,” Abel. His thought process
is brutal and he’s hard and round. But Evie, what a pure and beautiful name for
the woman he must possess. Evie is sweet and fun and sassy. She’s so different
than Abel and where he’s come from. The story is where I took the star rating
from. Not because it was bad but because I struggled with finding the
relationship beautiful. Mostly, Abel just disturbed me. I know, I’m being sensitive
here! LOL But the storyline is still there so I can’t fault the author. I’m not
even sure what my real issues are!
My
rating comes from the beauty that is Saffron Kent’s writing. The flow and style
of her words are just as smooth as silk and just as easy to read as it is to
feel silk against one’s body. Her characters are perfectly executed; you either
love or hate Abel. Either way, Saffron Kent is pulling emotions from you. She’s
making you feel this book in your soul and that’s a talent I can’t take away
from with my issues of the guy character.
I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.

Author Bio
Writer of bad romances. Aspiring Lana Del Rey of the Book World.
Saffron is a big believer in love (obviously). She believes in happily ever after, the butterflies and the tingling. But she also believes in edgy, rough and gutsy kind of love. She believes in pushing the boundaries, darker (sometimes morally ambiguous) emotions and imperfections.
The kind of love she writes about is flawed just like her characters. And she hopes by the end of it, you’ll come to root for them just as much as she does. Because love, no matter where it comes from, is always pure and beautiful.
