Honor

September 15, 2016
After concluding her Welcome to the Point series with Better When He's Brave (2015), Crownover begins her newest trilogy, the Breaking Point, a spin-off about a tough inner-city neighborhood. Nassir Gates is dark, enigmatic, powerful, and one bad, bad man; he's lived a life that most of us can't begin to imagine. Keelyn Foster appears fragile, but she's strong enough to have made it out of the Point on her own terms. When Nassir shows up in Denver with a business proposition, Keelyn realizes that the Point is the only place she'll ever call home and Nassir is the only man to hold her interest. Afraid of losing herself and needing to prove that she's his equal, she performs a dangerous dance, mixing business and pleasure. Can a love this fierce last, or will they be consumed by it? Crownover's latest has everything readers have come to expect from her, especially her complex, uniquely flawed characters; she then raises the stakes by setting this tale in an adult sex club where every dark fantasy can be realized.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2016, American Library Association.)
