When I stepped on that flight to Rome, I never could have imagined the man sitting across the aisle from me would tilt my world on its axis.He claimed it was fate that brought us together, but I refused to believe in such notions.Fate had nothing to do with walking in on my soon-to-be husband in a compromising position with his secretary.Fate had nothing to do with hopping on a … had nothing to do with hopping on a plane to Rome, effectively standing up my former fiancé on our wedding day.
And fate certainly had nothing to do with the handsome stranger sitting across the aisle from me, one who would open my mind and heart to things I never thought possible.
Because if fate is real, she’s cruel and unforgiving.
How could fate give me my wings, only to lock me in a cage?
How could fate give me a taste of bliss, only to then dangle it just out of reach?
How could fate allow my heart to feel, only to learn it was all a lie?
All my life, I’ve struggled to finally free myself from the chains binding me because of who I am.
I should have known my freedom would come at a price.

There are not enough positive adjectives to say about this story… I finished it yesterday and wanted to hug T K Leigh and tell her how much I enjoy her writing and how it’s soooo real when she is describing a situation… if only a man could be that romantic… I had a husband who was very living & romantic but Dante went the extra mile… JUST LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH will eventually read it again a a year or so! Thank you T.K. Leigh
This book is different, it takes you on a very twisty path to find the ending.
I enjoyed this book.
Absolutely wonderful! Could there ever be a real man like Dante?
Don’t waste your time or money!!
The reviews that I read did not mention the page after page of graphic abusive sex scenes.
I’m no prude by any means but when the sex is graphic and violent I am disgusted. I ended up having to delete this book and had no interest in continuing the series. even though I bought it. Sigh
I absolutely loved this amazing series! Inferno is an intriguing story, to say the least. A beautiful woman who has been trapped and controlled her entire life, finally breaking free of the suffocating restraints. Meeting an enigmatic man who makes her feel things she’s never felt before.
The chemistry and passion between Dante and Eleanor is off the charts. T.K. does an incredible job of building up the attraction and desire between these two characters. What started out as a proposition to just spend this limited time together quickly morphed into something that feels so much deeper than just a casual fling while Eleanor is in Rome.
Part 2 focused on Dante and Eleanor together. T.K. just knows how to write and build a foundation between two people. The feelings they have for one another, the thoughts and emotions that run through them as they think about each other, the physical connections they create. She just does such an amazing job that I tend to forget these people are just characters in a book and are not real people who live and breathe. Fate and Karma play a huge roll in Dante and Eleanor’s story. Was it fate that brought them together? How big of a part will fate play in whether these two have a future together?
Part 3 – The coin, or Fate, has Eleanor going home to California to start her life over and learn how to stand on her own for the first time in her life. T.K. weaves a very realistic story of a woman who has led a very sheltered life being fed a huge dose of reality as to what the average person deals with on a day to day basis. Here is a woman whose family connections got her the prestigious job she formerly held, and it is that same family connection that is working against her in finding a job at all.
The suspense ratchets up a little in this installment, with Eleanor finding out more things about her father, some of them from the man himself. But can she even trust anything he says? They’ve never had a close relationship, and after her fallout with Brock, her mother seems even more acrimonious towards her.
I particularly liked the unique way that Eleanor communicated with Dante during their time apart. That was lovely and emotional and warmed my heart.
Part 4 – T.K. pulls no punches in this climactic conclusion to Dante and Eleanor’s story! T.K. knows how to write romantic suspense. The romance in this book is off the charts sexy. The passion and emotion between Dante and Eleanor was smoldering. Dante knows how to treat a women, in and out of the bedroom. And Eleanor finally felt secure enough in her feminism to explore a wilder side of sex with Dante. And damn, was it hot!!
The suspense element had me glued to the pages. There are twists and turns around every corner! My heart was in my throat for half the book, the story building to an intensity level that had me almost walking away from my Kindle. One particular scene had me in tears, yelling, “Why, T.K.! Why?” I wasn’t sure I was going to emerge from that unscathed.
The plot twist that occurs totally blindsided me. I thought I had it all figured out as to who was doing what, and I did guess a few things correctly, but one particular twist really threw me for a loop!! Totally did not see that coming!! Bravo, T.K. for pulling that one off!
This series was one heck of a ride!! I think this is some of T.K.’s finest work, all the elements of an amazing story included within the pages. What a series!!
What an amazing book series! I’m trying to put into words how much I enjoyed this book series. Dante & Eleanor are such strong characters & I fell in love with them. This book had it all! We were given friendships, romance, family drama, mystery, & suspense all written T.K. Leigh style!
