NEW STAND-ALONE NOVEL
by USA Today Bestselling Author, Chelle Bliss
Released on January 26th - LIVE
EVERYTHING CHANGED IN AN INSTANT.
I thought I knew what was important, but one phone call sent my life into a tailspin.
Alone and afraid, I cling to the one man I shouldn’t.
I was warned about him and told to stay away. “He’s dangerous,” they said.
But the man who could hurt me the most, gave me the greatest comfort.
"He's not who they think," I told myself.
But just like an illusion, things are never what they seem.
Normal is overrated, this is a statement from this book and is never been a truer statement.
This is a standalone from Chelle and is very different from the books that she normally writes. You are in for a real ride on a rollercoaster with this one, so hold on tight.
Callie is a young woman that finds that she is caught up in a world that she never thought she ever would be. She is holding secrets, and is a whole world of dark.
Bruno 'The Butcher' makes sure that everyone see's that he lives up to his name, but he holds deep secrets as well.
These two are thrown together and embark on a journey that will test them both.
This is truly an emotional story, the subject matter must have been very hard to write, but it was done so beautifully.

it was amazing
"The appreciation for the light can never come without the darkness."
No matter how prepared you are, no matter how forewarned, how knowledgeable nothing can prepare for the reality of the storm. Often expected and totally unpredictable Callie finds herself caught up in her very own hurricane and she soon realises she's not in control of where the winds will take her. Intelligent, motivated and focused she lives ensconced in her own bubble of frivolous living, shallow and skin deep working hard to gather materialistic wealth as she is too independent and career focused to concentrate on anything else. Her parents have passed and she has her long time friend Becca as her social network but other than she maintains a professional distance and remains secluded instead preferring to be self reliant. Yet when her storm starts beating she finds shelter in the most unlikely of places.
Bruno, know as "The Butcher," becomes her tether in the eye of her hurricane. He has watched her from afar and the attraction has always been mutual but his air of danger has kept Callie at arms length, seizing the opportunity presented Bruno sees his way in and takes it. Rumour and speculation cultivate and feed the mystery surrounding him yet Callie is drawn in by the man he reveals behind closed doors. Who is Bruno really? Secrets and half truths keep you guessing. The man is an enigma yet his actions speak louder than words as he strives to calm the storm weathering the worst to protect Callie.
This story was not the expected. I signed up for a review simply based on the author as I have read her previous work and loved every book. The cover and blurb had me intrigued and the title had my mind wandering into lots of dark sexy places. Yet the story was more. More than expected and totally heart warming. The challenges and reactions to the issues they must face had me on a rollercoaster of emotions. So close to reality and written from the heart this story has empathy oozing from every word. I was cheering from the sidelines whenever she showed her sassy side. Lee and Bruno were amazing characters that I wish I could hug. The natural growth and development of the characters are a testament to the talent of Chelle Bliss. She creates characters that get under your skin and stay with you. Enshrine is a poignant and inspirational read - nothing is ever black and white.
A five star not what I was expecting read.
