It Ain't Me, Babe - Tillie Cole

Synopsis A fortuitous encounter.

A meeting that should never have happened.

Many years ago, two children from completely different worlds forged a connection, a fateful connection, an unbreakable bond that would change their lives forever…

Salome knows only one way to live—under Prophet David’s rule. In the commune she calls home, Salome knows nothing of life beyond her strict faith, nor of life beyond the Fence—the fence that cages her, keeps her trapped in an endless cycle of misery. A life she believes she is destined to always lead, until a horrific event sets her free.

Fleeing the absolute safety of all she has ever known, Salome is thrust into the world outside, a frightening world full of uncertainty and sin; into the protective arms of a person she believed she would never see again.

River ‘Styx’ Nash knows one thing for certain in life—he was born and bred to wear a cut. Raised in a turbulent world of sex, Harleys, and drugs, Styx, unexpectedly has the heavy burden of the Hades Hangmen gavel thrust upon him, and all at the ripe old age of twenty-six—much to his rivals’ delight.

 

Thoughts Wow. This is by far the best MC book i have ever read and i've read a fair few. Flawlessly written, extremely original, completely captivating, an outstanding read.

There are however some very graphic scenes of abuse that may upset some people but i thought that they were executed with care and consideration.

 

“We were always fated to be together. He is my everything. He is my entire world….Styx is my salvation.”
