This novel is NOT part of the Life . Destiny . Fate series. More to come....
When you lose the one person who grounds your existence, your whole world changes.
In life, it is said that everything happens for a reason. If that’s true, how can you explain death? Especially when it happens to someone so young, so beautiful, and so innocent? My name is Bain Adams, and I struggle with these thoughts every day. I’ve been through hell and back, somehow surviving the unimaginable. My sister took her life six months ago, and now, what’s left is a shell of the man I once was, a shadow of the person I used to be. Do I miss that life? Absolutely. But I miss her more, every day. I pray time will ease the pain and help my suffering while I search for the answers…but so far, nothing.
Happiness is something I knew so long ago, and now it’s nothing but a faint, distant recollection of the life I once had. My name is Arion LaSalle, and seven months ago my life was shredded to pieces when my fiancé disappeared while deployed. He never came home, burning a hindrance of pain and agony within my soul. For so long, I lived my life believing everything happens for a reason, until now. ‘Cause none of it makes any sense. Why Nate? Why only him? Since getting through each breath is a struggle, I put on a fake persona, pretending I’m someone I’m not, living my life recklessly. Because for me, it was all taken far too soon.
Synopsis.
SJ's Review.
Bain & Arion
Wow this story was so beautiful, so broken, so perfect!
Bain & Arion had both lost someone close to them, close to their heart. Both of them are heading down an ugly path of self loathing!! Aion lost her fiancé. Bain lost his sister.
From the beginning Bain was told her sister committed suicide he chooses not to believe it. She wouldn't do that to him, to
her family... To herself! Is Bain just fooling himself or was there foul play involved? With an alcoholic Mother and a Father who works to forget who does he have? No one that's who.. Bain turns to pills to help him that is until he meets HER. She caught his eye from the very first moment, her quick wit, her smart mouth and her sexy as hell attitude!
Arion fucks to forget. No feelings, no emotions just fucks and leaves them! That is until she meets Bain. She can't forget him, she can't get him out of her head. How long can she kid herself that she won't fall for him?
Arion & Bain help each other through the difficult parts of their lives & learn to move on. The past is the past & each loved one would want to see them happy after all. Arion & Bain don't have it easy, from the beginning it tough going but one thing they do have is SEX... Lots and lots of hot, wonderful, mind blowing sex! Just reading some of the sexual encounters between these guys is enough to get you hit under the collar. One things these guys don't lack is connection, spark or passion!
In the beginning I was skeptical about Every Soul but this book took me on one hell of a journey & I ended up reading it in one sitting neglecting anything at home that needed doing. Oops. This book pulled me in & gripped me til the very end and the end well WOW that's an entirely different emotion all together! I feel sick for Arion I feel broken for Bain!!
Every Soul get 5 well deserved stars for me and I cannot wait to read Every Heart. The conclusion to Arion & Bain's story!!!!

Synopsis.
Love hurts.
Life hurts.
But without the pain, there is no bliss.
I found bliss.
Then it was all taken away.
And though it hurt like hell to move on, I had to.
I learned to love again only because of Bain.
I found my bliss again.
Then in a split second, everything was put into jeopardy.
My world crashed down around me and this time I was faced with the hardest decision of my life, a decision I never dreamt of making.
A choice that seemed impossible.
With no good outcome.
That would hurt everyone I loved no matter what I did.
I didn’t want to make it. I couldn’t choose between my two loves.
So I fought the decision with everything I had, avoiding it until…
I was forced to decide.
SJ's Review.
Every Heart. Bain. Nate. Arion.
I LOVED Every Soul but Every Heart... it broke me! A book that can evoke emotions like that from me is far better than any book that can't. I don't cry easily but I felt the emotions in this book. The cliff hanger in Every Soul left me reeling... I HATE CLIFFERS!! Cliff Hangers are THE WORSE!! If I know a book has a cliff hanger I will not read it until book two is released. Anyway back on topic. We all know THAT cliff hanger Every Soul left us with.... Yes Nate is alive! ALIVE not
dead like his family & Arion were told Hell they buried him.... How can he be alive? What will Arion do? She has just learnt to love again, and given her heart to another man. Arion has a huge choice infront of her & its going to be the hardest choice she has ever had to make.
Arion is happy and in love with Bain. Sexy NBA star & all round good guy. He has experiEnced loss the same as what Arion has when his twin Sister's life was taken from her by a sick a twisted man, who set her death up to look as if she had committed suicide. Bain make Arion feel. She feels alive when she is with Bain, she has never felt a passion like what she feels when Bain looks at her or touches her but her heart has always been with Nate.
Arion will always be Nate first love. She was what kept him alive when he was held captive by the enemy he was meant to be protecting his country from. Knowing one day he would be coming home to his girl, that kept him alive, that kept him fighting. Only to get home & realize she actually is not your girl any longer must be completely heart shattering. I can't even begin to imagine the pain Nate went through when he realized the girl he had fought for was with another man, and no less than in love with him. He can tell by the way they looks at each other that he loves Arion as much as he loved her.

My heart broke for Bain. I wasn't sure on Nate as I hadn't gotten to know him yet but Bain, I loved Bain in Every Soul & when Nate turnt up my heart broke.. no it shattered. Bain had suffered enough loss in his life & he felt in his heart that he was about to loss the second women he held close to his heart.
Arion has the hardest decision she will ever make. She has to break someone heart, but how do you make that kind of decision? Personally I think she handles it pretty damn good, she separates herself from Bain which is heartbreaking in itself to see but it needed to be done. How can she know if he's the one she wants if he is always there? She needs to see who her hearts pulls her towards when she is apart from them both.
Bain & Nate don't take to kindly to the fact that is taking her so long to choose but she knows what she has to do. She knows where her heart belongs.
Both men will always have her heart but her heart belongs with only one man completely. After breaking one heart & going to her man she knows she made the right choice.
Arion gets her happily ever after with her man and the family they are about to become but how ?will the man she left behind fend for himself? How will he survive? He will always be in her heart and she in his, but maybe it is time to move on?
Every Heart is another 5 star read! I can't find one thing I didn't like about this book, I can't even find anything that niggled me. This annoys me, because normally there is normally always something I can find that I didn't relate to or like. Can't wait for book three in the series & will be looking out for more of this Authors work in the future.
