“You’re…my light, Evianna. I don’t know how else to say it. You…chase some of the darkness away.”

This is hands down my favorite book in this series. The characters, the plot, the action…everything screamed perfection. Seriously, I freaking LOVED THIS BOOK. I was so obsessed that I actually read it through twice before I wrote this review. Another *very* important fact to note is that I actually bought this e-book. Patricia D Eddy’s Away From Keyboard series is not available on Kindle Unlimited, which is how I read almost all of my books. I’m in a romance reader group on Facebook and our author posted that this book was on sale for 99 cents this week only. Guys…I’ve been waiting for this book to go on sale for SO LONG. I jumped at the chance to grab it. This is my first purchase of an ebook on Kindle! So totally worth it!
In this novel we get to delve a little more in Dax’s life. We meet him in book three of this series, On His Six, with Ryker and Wren. I had the pleasure of reading that book when it was available on KU for a hot second. Best grab EVER. Anyway, so yes we get to know Dax in this story. We also meet Evianna, a coder (similar to Wren who was a hacker) who gets herself in a bit of trouble when a project goes awry. Her life is threatened and she needs protection, so she reaches out to Dax’s company, Second Sight. They are a private security firm made up of ex military men and women. When Dax’s main man has to go off grid to deal with some personal issues, it leaves Dax to protect Evianna himself. Only problem is…he’s blind.
In this story, we get to navigate the world as Dax experiences it, through smell, sound, and touch. Dax falls in love with Evianna for everything that she is, not what she looks like. She even comments on how she’s carrying about thirty extra pounds on her that she shouldn’t be because of her eating habits. But we never see her. As the reader, you’re never really given a clear picture of her because Dax can’t ever see her. We know that she has chestnut hair and fair skin because of how Ryker describes her to Dax one time. Other than that, it’s all about how she smells and the sounds she makes and what she feels like. It’s incredible and so sexy. The writing is sensual and passionate. It sucks you in and feeds your soul as our story moves. Everything about Dax and Evianna is gorgeous and remarkable. I can’t believe it took me this long to read this book!! If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. Brilliant and lovely ❤
