Review
Rebecca Brooke is an author I can always count on to deliver a story I can get lost in and Traded was not only no different it exceeded all her others. Traded is a tale of an abused wife and the man who would become her savior.
Elena has been so broken down by her scumbag husband Dominic that when he gives her up to a bookie he owe she doesn’t question it. This is the life she deserves right? But from the moment Ashton sees her he knows there is more there and even though he is not the kind of man to use and abuse women he takes her for 3 months in the hope that he can get her away from Dominic and maybe even show her she is worth more than that. But is going from a bad home to one that revolves around a life of crime is difficult to say the least.
While aspects of this novel venture into the “dark” category the vast majority of it is about Elena learning her self worth and Ashton teaching her the beauty life holds. For me Ashton was like a alpha bad boy light. Rough around the edges but not over the top and he had an amazing sweet heart in the center of it all.
The sexiest book Rebecca has put out yet, Traded will excite you and if you are anything like me you will be begging for more (ahem I want Miller’s book asap!)
