SMOKE SIGNALS BY CATHERINE GAYLE REVIEW!

SMOKE SIGNALS BY CATHERINE GAYLE

(The Tulsa Thunderbirds)

USA Today bestselling author Catherine Gayle presents the second novel in the Tulsa Tunderbirds hockey romance series. 

When dark desperation meets opportunity… 

On a celebratory trip with his best friend, Ray “Razor” Chambers meets sultry Viktoriya Dubrovskaya and immediately recognizes the desperation in her eyes—a sight he remembers all too well. Permanently in survival mode, the destitute and broken Viktoriya makes him an offer—a proposition he immediately refuses. However, Razor’s counter-offer changes everything for her. 

A ring. 

A marriage. 

A lifetime of opportunity. 

But learning to live together as husband and wife is as foreign as interpreting Smoke Signals. And where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire. 

CONTENT WARNING: contains graphic and potentially disturbing descriptions of abuse, both physical and sexual.

MY REVIEW

     

Razor has always been the guy that never seemed to grow up, but I feel in love with him in Smoke Signals. His story and Tori’s is not a traditional love story, but it’s beautiful all the same. They meet when she propositions him for sex, and instead of making her feel cheap he marries her instead. The rest of the story is spent watching them wade themselves through their relationship.

I must admit when I realized what her former professional was I wondered how Ms. Gayle would spin this. I shouldn’t have worried, because my heart bled for her, and Catherine Gayle truly captured the plight of many women doing sex work. Razor was an amazing person, and exactly what she needed in order to her heal her body, heart, and mind. He was still the same loveable person, but showed a maturity he never quite captured while he was with the Portland Storm. It was always enjoyable to read about the other characters from both series, and the wedding was truly magical. Every book, be it the Portland Storm or the Tulsa Thuderbirds Series seems to get better!
