Synopsis

BEHIND HIS EYES—TRUTH is the second of the CONSEQUENCES SERIES three reading companions, by New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Aleatha Romig. It is recommended to be read after completing all three books of the CONSEQUENCES SERIES: Consequences, Truth, and Convicted. It is not a standalone book and should not be read as such.

This reading companion explores the thoughts and motivations of Anthony Rawlings and his struggle to accept the truth behind the consequences. It is not intended as a total rewrite of TRUTH, but meant to enhance the reader’s understanding. BEHIND HIS EYES—TRUTH contains significant scenes from the novel TRUTH, as experienced from Anthony’s point of view. It also contains never before published, behind-the-scenes information, a glossary of the characters, and a timeline that grows from Consequences to include the array of new characters and revelations found in the pages of Truth.

BEHIND HIS EYES—TRUTH is the continued journey inside the mind of the man who survived the consequences. This companion allows readers the opportunity to witness first hand as Anthony’s world changes forever. His rules and control begin to slip away, threatened by the most unlikely foes—an experience completely unfamiliar to him.

Can something as pure as love and forgiveness wreak havoc on his well-planned existence?

BEHIND HIS EYES—TRUTH, because there is more to learn about a man who:

Once upon a time, signed a napkin that he knew was a contract. As an esteemed businessman, he forgot one very important rule—he forgot to read the fine print. It wasn’t an acquisition to own another person as he’d previously assumed. It was an agreement to acquire a soul.
—Aleatha Romig, CONVICTED

Continue the long and painful acquisition, as the TRUTH becomes evident, from Behind His Eyes!

Review

 So, I want to start by saying how absolutely amazing these books are.  They are twisty and dark.  They are so incredibly well written and I just cannot get enough of Anthony Rawlings.  This is not a standalone; it’s the 5th book is this cray cray series.

Reading Order:

Consequences

Truth

Convicted

Behind His Eyes- Consequences

Behind His Eyes- Truth

Ok, now that we got that out of the way, lets get to the nitty gritty of this book, shall we?  I really love that these books are from Tony’s point of view.  You either love or hate the guy, and for me, it was love at first sight.  I was always sympathetic to his tortured self, but with the release of the Behind His Eyes books, I am literally swooning for him now.  It is clear in this book that everything he has done in the past has caught up with him, and he knows it.  He has so many regrets about his past actions,  especially with Claire, whom he has loved for forever practically.  I have grown more and more sympathetic to this man who is obviously not a very good person, but like Claire, I cannot help but love him.   On the other hand, I find Claire less lovable and strong from Tony’s POV and more on the weak side.  Maybe that is how he sees her?  It does not stop me from rooting for them all over again, though.  Unfortunately for Tony, the truth does not set him and Claire free.  I know what is coming next in Behind His Eyes Conviction and I am literally dying to find out what Tony thinks about all of this.
