Truth picks up right where Need left off with the reemergence of Brianna's father, John. Her world is tipped on it's axis once again as John's presence presents even more problems. When Brianna has a problem, it automatically becomes Stephan's as well.

Brianna faces hurdle after hurdle. At several points in the novel, I wasn't sure how she would be able to pull herself out. It seemed that the poor girl could not catch a break. Hayes was able to write such an accurate portrayal of a young woman attempting to break free from the violence forced upon her. She learned to take that horrible experience and bring about a loving relationship with Stephan.

Stephan faces his own demons in this installment. With everything Brianna is dealing with, he has the added responsibility of running his company and finding a way to make the man who tortured Brianna pay. Stephan is written as such a complex character, not as one might expect of a Dom persona. He is firm in his assignments with Brianna, yet loving with her body and her soul.

I applaud Hayes on her ability to keep the series moving with an intricate storyline intending to entertain, educate, and titillate the reader. I felt a genuine connection with both Stephan and Brianna as their lives began to spin out of control.

I knew going into this novel, there would be one more in the series. If I had the ability to fast forward to the release of the next book, I would. I NEED to know what happens next. The ending of this book left me panting for more. I eagerly await the conclusion to this phenomenal series.

Thank you to Sherri Hayes, Jitterbug PR, and The Writer's Coffee Shop Publishing House for providing me with a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.
