Quintessentially Q is a dark, compelling story that consumed me. Pepper Winters took me on a heart wrenching, mind
blowing, gut twisting journey; that by the end left me feeling spent but soaring
high and free.
This, book 2 in the Monsters in the
Dark series, picks up where Tears of Tess leaves off. Just when I thought things were going to fall
into place for Tess and Q, my world got flipped. The traffickers that originally kidnapped Tess
return and she is literally ripped away from Q and plunged into the depths of
hell. The atrocities she endured
shredded me. My heart cried out for this
woman. For her life, her soul, her mind
and for Q.
My mind is a jumbled mess when it
comes to describing Q. I think the one
word I can use to sum him up is power. Q
is full-force, extreme power. He will
stop at nothing and no one to get Tess back.
He welcomes his dark side and engulfs himself in it. He is terrifyingly powerful in his ferocity.
Je suis pire
When Q finally does rescue Tess her
mind is so warped with guilt and disgust that nothing he does or says can penetrate
the tower she’s enclosed herself in. My
heart broke to see these two people, so meant for each other, ruined. Q didn’t give up though. He was desperate to have his Tess back. His
esclave. It hurt, physically hurt to
watch Tess give up; to see the strong fighter that I knew her to be lock
herself up in her own mind because she was weak and couldn’t face the things
she was made to do. It pained me that
she couldn’t even put up the fight for Q.
She made promises to him. He was
her everything. But she couldn’t unlock
her mind for him.
Q’s final attempt to release Tess
from the hold she had on herself did me in.
If my heart broke before at the ruin their relationship was in, then the
rest of me just shattered at what he put himself through to get her back.
Je suis á toi
As painful as this book was to read
at times, I never would have missed it for the world. I loved every single agonizing moment of it. In the end my heart was left elated to the
point that it overrode all the bad.
Everything fell in to place. Q
and Tess needed to go through the excruciating pain they went through to get to
the point they are at now. It was all necessary
and pivotal to make them who they are individually and together…stronger.
Les uns des autres
I applaud Pepper Winters for not holding back with this series. She takes us into the dark. It's ugly, raw, and painstakingly honest. I cannot wait for the next one. I'll gladly follow her wherever she leads.
