Editoral Review
Dark Needs, written by T.M. Frazier and first published on February 2, 2015, is a thrilling dark romance novel that follows the story of an injured and traumatized soldier, Kace, and his journey to reconnect with his family while battling his inner demons. Frazier, a USA Today bestselling author, masterfully blends themes of addiction, trauma, betrayal, and healing, keeping readers on the edge of their seats while providing a beautiful story of love and hope.
The plot follows Kace, who is scarred physically and mentally after being held captive and tortured by a terrorist group overseas. He returns home to Florida, where he struggles to reconnect with his family and adapt to life outside the military.
Kace meets the beautiful and eccentric Piper, but their relationship is not always smooth sailing. As they both grapple with their pasts, Kace’s addiction and Piper’s family secrets threaten to pull them apart.
Frazier’s writing is engaging and descriptive, painting a vivid picture of the dark and gritty world Kace and Piper inhabit. The characters are complex and well-developed, with Kace’s struggle with addiction being particularly well-handled.
The pacing of the novel is excellent, with the tension continually building up to an explosive climax. Despite its strengths, Dark Needs is not without flaws.
The book’s portrayal of addiction and recovery is somewhat simplistic, with Kace’s addiction seemingly resolved a little too quickly. Furthermore, the ending feels rushed and slightly unrealistic.
Overall, Dark Needs is an excellent addition to the dark romance genre, with Frazier demonstrating her skill at crafting compelling, multi-layered characters and gripping plotlines. Fans of this genre will enjoy this novel, which is a solid addition to Frazier’s existing oeuvre.
Recommended for fans of the dark romance genre, especially those looking for a romance with a military hero. Although some of the themes may be triggering for some readers, it is an emotionally satisfying read that ultimately celebrates the power of love and redemption.
4 out of 5 stars.
