Book Review: Her Lips to God's Hands

 

Olympia is always in control. From her job to her perception of pain to every life she’s taken, Olympia exerts absolute control over every portion of her life.

Then Abriya appears at her doorstep, begging to be her servant.

The FBI may not have any idea who Olympia is, but Abriya sure does, and she’s enamored with Olympia. So, why not take Abriya on as a helping hand? There are plenty of ways Olympia can use a as a crew member, as a scapegoat—even as a pseudo-girlfriend to get her mom off her back.

And Abriya is different. It’s not just that she likes the way Olympia kills. It’s the fact that she sees Olympia as capable, as knowledgeable, as a real person in a way no one ever has.

But as a secondary threat suddenly rears its head, Olympia needs to come to terms with her own feelings, including feelings she’s never grappled with before—maybe even ones she never thought she had.

What does “control” really mean? What does it mean to give it up?

Is Olympia willing to find out?

Her Lips to God's Hands is a mid-heat F/F dark romance novel set in the Darkest Desires shared universe. A full list of content warnings and kinks can be found on our website or in the Author's Note.

My Review

I love how bold Abriya was confronting Olympia and demanding that she wanted to be with her. She was playing a dangerous game with Olympia.

"I never thought I was going to be "someone" for another person."

While the intimate scenes are few and short, I enjoyed them a lot. The way that Olympia allowed herself to open up and let Abriya into her heart is beautiful. The last third of the story turned up the intensity a few notches. 

Ooh, this book is just what I needed. A sweet but emotional FF read. Additionally, who doesn't love a good female k!ller read.
