Title: Love in the Light (Hearts in Darkness #2)
Author: Laura Kaye
Release Date: January 12, 2016
Synopsis
Makenna James and Caden Grayson have been inseparable since the day they were trapped in a pitch-black elevator and found acceptance and love in the arms of a stranger. Makenna hopes that night put them on the path to forever—which can’t happen until she introduces her tattooed, pierced, and scarred boyfriend to her father and three over-protective brothers.
Must fight for love in the light…
Haunted by a childhood tragedy and the loss of his family, Caden never thought he’d find the love he shares with Makenna. But the deeper he falls, the more he fears the devastation sure to come if he ever lost her, too. When meeting her family doesn’t go smoothly, Caden questions whether Makenna deserves someone better, stronger, and just more…normal. Maybe they’re too different—and he’s far too damaged—after all…

Excerpt
Makenna unbuttoned her jeans, pushed them down,
and took them off altogether, leaving her standing there in an oversized, faded
red and blue Penn sweatshirt that was just long enough to cover her panties. “You
should get undressed, too,” she said, coming to Caden and starting on the
buttons of his shirt.
Press and release, press and release. Until she
was pulling his shirt from his dress pants and exposing his skin.
She gave a little moan and kissed the center of
his chest. “Just like unwrapping a present.” She trailed a line of kisses and
licks from one nipple to the other.
“Fuck, Makenna,” he whispered. “What are you
doing?”
“Tasting you,” she said.
The words were like a blowtorch to his blood.
He was hard in an instant. “We can’t,” he said, though his hands went to the
back of her head, encouraging her, guiding her as she continued to kiss and
tease and drive him wild with her mouth.
“We can if we’re quiet.” Slowly, she dropped to
her knees and bared him to mid-thigh. She took his cock in hand and gripped him
firmly, tearing a soft grunt from his throat. “I’ve been wanting you all day,”
she whispered, her lips teasing his head with soft kisses. “Wanting to touch
you and kiss you and hold you. I can’t hold back anymore.” She licked him from
root to tip. Once, twice, three times. And then she sucked him into her mouth.
It felt so fucking good that Caden’s hands flew
to her hair, digging in, grabbing hold. She moaned at the contact and pushed
herself deeper, burying his cock in the back of her throat. The intensity of it
nearly took his knees out from underneath of him.
Makenna pulled off his length. “Lay down on the
floor.”
He was too far gone to debate the wisdom of
having sex in her father’s house. He needed this. He needed her. He
needed the connection and the coming together of the act. Caden locked the
door, took the rest of his clothes off, and spread himself out on the beige
carpet.
She undressed, too, all that beautiful red hair
spilling around the bare porcelain of her shoulders and making him think of
peaches and cream. And, fuck, he was starving.
Caden grasped his length. “Take me back in your
mouth.”
He didn’t have to ask twice. Makenna settled
herself between his legs and wrapped her lips around his cock. She sucked him
deep and slow, than fast and shallow, her baby blues flashing up at him so
fucking sexy. He needed to see her eyes, so he fisted her hair into a ponytail
to keep it out of her face. He used his grip to urge her harder, faster,
deeper. He needed it. God, he needed it. And she took it. She took
everything he gave her and so much more.
“Fuck, Red, I’m gonna come if you don’t stop,”
he whispered.
She pulled off him, her lips shiny and swollen.
“I want you inside me first,” she said, already
crawling up his body.
crawling up his body.
Simone's Review
We first met Caden and Mackenna in Hearts in Darkness and, for me, it was one of the best novellas I’ve ever read. The story line was very unique, while Caden and Mackenna captured my heart. I was left wanting to know so much more of their back story and, also how their relationship would continue after this very brief, but steamy, encounter.
So, it's been a while since I read Hearts in Darkness but the wait for this sequel was oh so worth it!! The book picks up 2 months after they met on that fateful day, 2 people in one broken down elevator. Caden and Mackenna are still going strong and their passion getting hotter, page by page. But as you can guess, with one tattooed hot but very broken man, you know the path to a happy relationship will not come easy.
This is so true in this sequel for Caden, who suffers from PTSD resulting from a car accident which left his mum and brother dead. Caden carries scars on his body and demons in his head which reminds him everyday of this tragic event. Can Caden fight his demons and convince himself that he can be happy with Mackenna and that nothing bad will happen to her?
Mackenna loves Caden, I adored that the words were always just on the tip of her tongue, but was just too scared to say them. She loved him for who he was, the scars he wore and the demons he carried.
If you have read Hearts in Darkness, you have to pick up and read Love in the Light NOW!! You will not be disappointed. This sequel was definitely an emotional read, but Laura does what she does best, giving us a heart felt, sexy, well written story that gave us a perfect conclusion to Caden and Mackenna's story.

“You own me, Red. Do you know that? There isn’t a part of me that isn’t yours completely.”
Mackenna loves Caden, I adored that the words were always just on the tip of her tongue, but was just too scared to say them. She loved him for who he was, the scars he wore and the demons he carried.
She didn’t love him despite of all his issues, she loved him because they were part of who he was. And she loved who he was. With everything she had.
If you have read Hearts in Darkness, you have to pick up and read Love in the Light NOW!! You will not be disappointed. This sequel was definitely an emotional read, but Laura does what she does best, giving us a heart felt, sexy, well written story that gave us a perfect conclusion to Caden and Mackenna's story.
