Follow Me Darkly

Follow Me Darkly


by Helen Hardt

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5



It was so easy to follow Skye and Braden into their romance as it darkened!


Skye is mesmerized by the self-made billionaire whom she meets at her office where she assist an heiress, a former paramour of his. She’s tries to resist him, but he is persistent and gets what he wants and how!



This book gets hot fast! “I want to bed you tonight,” is what our sexy Braden Black tells Skye 15 pages in!!! And you better bet that this only heat up from there as they fight for control and their bedroom antics increase in intensity.



Skye and Braden were an interesting pairing. He is a big-city billionaire, she is a country girl who work as a personal assistant. They both crave/ need control in their lives. It is easy to see that Braden will win her submission with his wealth, power and experience, but I wonder in the end, who will control who? Will Skye be able to rise above? I am hopeful for her.  Their whirlwind “romance” quickly makes huge changes to her life and Addie decides to go along with the turn of events… will it make her stronger? Or more dependant on Braden? 



Braden seems to be trying to rest all her control/ autonomy from her. Does he really need her full submission? Or will an actual partnership be forged? He is almost an anti-hero- he is so cold and demanding, yet generous and kind. He is an enigma that draws you in with his appeal, but scares you off with his power and control…



I was hooked by Helen Hardt’s easy writing style that had me turning the pages and saying “one more chapter…” until the book was over! My only complaint (which, I should should have knew better) was that this is a cliffhanger and we are left waiting for Follow Me Under (Jan 2021) to see what Skye and Braden do next! I have so many questions for these two and I am anxious to see how this developed- I am already anticipating the next instalment!




Follow Me Darkly by Helen Hardt is scheduled to release September 29th, 2020.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Entangled Publishing and NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

A Bride's Guide to Marriage and Murder

A Bride's Guide to Marriage and Murder Countess of Harleigh Mystery, Book 5 by Dianne Freeman ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 They finally got hitched!! Fans of the Countess of Harleigh Mystery series will be happy to hear that before any murder took place Lady Harleigh and Mr Hazelton were married with all their friends and family in attendance!
